Recently, Kurt Angle underwent successful back surgery. During a recent episode of The Kurt Angle Show podcast, he revealed he needs shoulder replacement surgery but does say he is waiting to complete filming a movie before considering undergoing the surgery.

After stating that he feels good physically but not good enough to come back to wrestle again, Angle spoke about the issues he's having with his right shoulder.

"I have to get shoulder replacement surgery," he said. "[I found out that I need surgery] about six months ago. My doctor told me before he injected it with Novocaine. I get injections in my shoulder right now... My knees are good. My back is okay. My neck is not too bad, but my shoulder is hurting pretty bad. So, I'm eventually going to have shoulder replacement surgery. Actually, I want to do this movie first before I do it."
