‘I’m Never Letting The Company Go’ Kurt Angle Claims Vince McMahon Plans To Live Until 120 Years Old

WWE

WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle has claimed that Vince McMahon once told him that he never intends to let the WWE loose from his grasp, wanting to run the company until he turns 120.

Angle recently appeared on the Joe Rogan Experience, discussing a range of topics including his former boss Vince McMahon and the recent merger of WWE and the UFC.

When discussing McMahon, Angle recalled a conversation he had with him shortly after he returned to the company, where the 78-year-old stated his unwillingness to yield as WWE’s figurehead, not even after he passes a century in age.

Angle said:

“When I came back to WWE, he said, ‘I’m gonna have this company for a lot longer than you think, Mr. Angle. I’m 73 right now. My mom lived to be 101. I’m planning on living till I’m 120.’

“He said, ‘I’m never letting the company go. I’m always gonna be working here. They’re gonna have to pull it from my cold… pry it from my cold, dead hands.”

With McMahon now Executive Chairman of TKO Group Holdings, there seems to be little stopping him from achieving this goal, particularly after already ‘retiring’ from WWE in mid-2022 following the investigation of allegations of sexual misconduct made against him, only to return in early 2023.

With McMahon running the WWE side of TKO and all staff and talent beneath him, some new information has been revealed regarding his role in a recent employee meeting, one that followed the over 100 employee layoffs from the company on September 15.
