Kurt was on the Bubba the Love Sponge show on Sirius Radio, He told Bubba that he will be a coach for IFL and at the end of the season they are going to have a Pay Per-View that he will be part of. He also said he isn't in it for the money but more to help promote TNA. Take it for what its worth!

He knows extremely little about striking and most likely he'll be teaching you lay n pray..the best offense he'll teahc is good ground positioning and takedowns...thats it...

Yeah Kurt needs some more MMA experience before he can be an IFL coach. He may have phenomenal wrestling, but that's only one part of the MMA game.

His team will never win, because every fighter on his team will be more experienced then him. It'd still be fun to see how badly his team does. It would surprise us if his team did do well. I'm glad they are adding more teams. I just hope they are updating their schedule as well, so that they can still have like a playoffs, and finals.

Yeah. He needs to learn the fight game before he can coach and be good at coaching.
He could be a wrestling coach, I guess ...

angle should just stay in wrestling. it was a very bad move to put adam pacman jones in wrestling. he should of stayed where he belongs just like angle and lesnar.

Help promote TNA? TNA is a joke compared to MMA, seems like a cop out reason. I would say it's more like promoting his own agenda.

Kurt Angle sucks, that would be a waste of a coach.

The most important thing is what will his team's name be

i just dont even know what to say. the guy has a wrestling background thats second to none, but is he that caught up in himself that he thinks at his age he could come in and make a seamless transition to mma? time will tell i guess....

I guess I see this the other way. Angle is an amazing wrestler. Whether it's professional or amateur. He can always bring in a Coach to teach striking and submissions. However, the main thing that I think is the best about this is the fact that the IFL is in money trouble. What's the best way to make that situation better, by exposure. Angle will give the company that and in the end, it's all about dollars folks!

kurt should be smart and stay in wrestling. he has good mic skills and hes a pretty much a good heel.
