WWE Legend Kurt Angle Bodyslams Brian Kilmeade On Fox & Friends

Video
» 35 comments

What happens when you invite WWE legend and current TNA competitor Kurt Angle onto your morning show? You get bodyslammed, naturally. Brian Kilmeade found this out the hard way today on Fox & Friends.

Angle, who won the Olympic gold medal in 1996, has his eye on the 2012 games – at 43! Pretty impressive, especially considering certain bloggers in their 20s can barely make it through eating an entire microwaved burrito without getting winded. Of course, Angle has to make sure to get some extra practice in if he hopes to qualify.

Luckily, Kilmeade is something of a wrestling pro himself (or he was, he noted, up until the sixth grade).

Check out what happens when the host challenges Angle to a scuffle, via Fox News:

    Fox is throwing in a little “rasslin” in an attempt to get some liberals to tune in.

    Next Friday: a tractor pull.

    Please, whatever you do, do not show this video to Marcus Bachmann.

    ‘…I’ll be the judge of that!’ Brian Kilmeade

    Mr Kilmeade enjoyed that ‘Man Love Hug’ a little too much more than he’d like to say.

    This is nothing compared to what Kilmeade and Dooce do in their dressing room.

    Here’s my problem. Fox is the network that cries foul when the WH is visited by a rapper, Virginia Tech wants Nas to speak, etc., but they have no problem having Kurt Angle on. I like Angle, but let’s be real here, the guy has been arrested multiple times recently for DUI. I don’t have a problem with them having him on, but they should remember that the next time they try to create a controversy over someone hosting somebody.

    That’s excellent.  It doesn’t get more entertaining than that.  Fox News and professional wrestling.

    It’s funny that no matter how hard Fox & Friends tries… It’s SO SQUARE. 

    Watching those 3 quaker hosts (blond gay guy, blonde bimbo and ugly curly hair), makes the Morning Joe “crew” seem delirious in comparison.

     That was cool though. Thas wasn’t a body slam. It was a suplex. If Angle bodyslammed Kilmeade for real he’s still be laying there.  And the Ric Flair should of came running out and put the figure-four on him.  That was a good show.. Angle at 43 going into the Olympics? wow And especiall the abuse his body  took in the WWE. It’s all staged but you can’t fake a body slam. been there done that, 14 surgeries later.

    Doesn’t remember the opening ceremony of the Olympics?  Sounds like he needs to cut back on the roids a tad.  Poor Douchey….he looked upset that the wrestler wasn’t man-handling him too.

    43 trying to make the Olympic Freestyle team??  Not Possible.  Kurt will be lucky if he qualifies for the tryout.

    He should give the UFC a try, if he wants a challenge.
    Ask Brock Lesnar.

    I would have paid to see him do that to Douche.

  • Anonymous

    At 43 he’s too old for either. But he’s still in great shape.

  • Anonymous

    He has tried. They’re not having him. I like Kurt, but he’s full of it. He’s not going to wrestle in The Olympics. As for Brock, Ubereem liver kicked him into retirement.

    Last time I checked, McMahon wife and an executive at WWE ran as a Republican in the last election.

    I see some idiots can’t resist calling Steve Doucy gay and ‘douche’ and Gretchen Carlson, an accomplished concert violinist and beauty contest winner a ‘bimbo’.

    Figures!

    BTW, Kurt Angle is not in the WWE.

    It is probably a safe bet that WWE fans as a whole could give a flying flip about politics or they would not be watching WWE.  Go ahead, ask a hundred of them who the Vice President is and watch the blank stare.

    That wasn’t a body slam and not even close to being a suplex but it was funny.  Angle missed a golden opportunity to slap on an “angle lock” and snap Kilmeade’s ankle like a twig.  Seeing Kilmeade busted up would have been better than the time David Schultz bitch slapped John Stossel.

    Angle only did steroids while in the wwf.  Olympic drug testing is the real deal not like the sham wellness policy drug testing wwe uses today.

    Hey skyfet. Remember the XFL, the wrestling version of the NFL?

    Went into a store in Las Vegas to buy some Las Vegas Outlaws ( their XFL team) merchandise for my son and the guy tried to talk me out of it. It only lasted one year.

    Being a political junkie and a WWE fan are not mutually exclusive. I am both.

    And for additional shock to a limited mind like yours, I also adore classical music.

    Also know who the Vice President is. His well-informed and wise utterences always bring a knowing smile on my face.

    A typical, loving, tolerant and compassionate liberal.

    Hey maybe Kilmeade can be a WWF guy, he is such a stupid clown already

    maybe some NASCAR & deer hunting too?

    I can’t wait ’til next week when they let Brock Lesnar give Steve Doocy a haymaker.

    He already looks like he took one too many chairs to the face.  Anymore and he’d have to switch over to radio.

    Brian Kilmeade already has a radio show.

    Look luck Kurt.. hope to see you in the WWE again.

    Fun Fact: Brian Kilmeade was a hapless commentator in the early days of UFC. He did play by play for the second ever UFC PPV. True story

    Really? I might have to break out that dvd again, lol.
