Kurt Angle told BetweenTheRopes.com on Tuesday that he and Samoa Joe will have a mixed martial arts match at the Lockdown pay-per-view. “We’re going to have an MMA style match at the pay-per-view and this is the beginning of what TNA is going to start doing.” He said he provides a preview of the match on Thursday’s Impact and claims he knocked out one of the wrestlers he fought “for real.”
“Joe and I are actually putting a hell of a a match together that is going to be very much MMA oriented. It’s going to be inside a cage. I don’t even think we’re wearing shoes. We’re going to tape our ankles. We’re going to be putting on the gloves.” He also admitted that they’re trying to show up the Floyd Mayweather vs. Big Show match.
Angle also said he and Randy Couture have agreed to fight in a legit MMA-style match this summer. He didn't specify which promotion they'll work for or what type of match they're going to have.
Kurt Angle addressed the possibility of Bobby Lashley signing with TNA. “I’m not going to say anything, but be ready for anything. Be ready for a big surprise... Whatever he does, it’s going to make big press. Let’s just that I’m really excited about the direction that Bobby Lashley is going.”

uuugh, I hope none of this is true. I mean I'm all for strong style in my wrestling, but an mma style match would just lose it for me. Taped ankles? HUH?  |

I don't believe any of what he says till it happens.
Randy Couture would kill him so I hope he's not fighting him.

Shooting on indy guys for the hell of it is pretty low. bunghole. Now, if it was "worked shoot" fine, but if he "shoot" knocked a guy out, just to do it, than that is very unprofessional and low of him.

I always just assumed Kurt would go into cardiac arrest during a PPV or random house show, but it turns out he's going to suffocate on his mouth piece when Couture shoves it down his throat.

Um... Couture will beat the out of Angle! We can only hope - it might knock some sense into him.. So not content with copying WWE, they're now going to try and copy the UFC?.. |

I think an MMA style between Angle & Joe could really word & Lashley is a similar environment makes sense as well, give him a mouthpiece & I'd be happy.
i still say him & Cena had a great match last year, yeah he needs work.
As for Couture/ Angle, it's rumoured on several MMA websites that it will be submission wrestling rather than straight up MMA, ie no striking so a less dangerous way forKurt to dip his feet in the water, still gonna be tapping his ass out though
