Kurt Angle talked about the infamous Crucifixion angle on ECW, which happened on the very episode where Kurt Angle made his ECW debut. Although Angle was not part of any in-ring action, he made his first ECW appearance on the show, which was headlined by Sandman being crucified.

The WWE Hall of Famer revealed that he was completely disgusted by the angle and did not want anything to do with the company. When he told Paul Heyman how unhappy he was, Heyman apparently lied to him by saying that even he did not know something so controversial was about to happen.

Angle revealed that one reason he wasn’t comfortable with the crucifixion was that he was raised as a Catholic. He admitted at the time he did not understand the pro-wrestling business and how important it was to get the ‘wow’ factor, to rope in the audience.
