While promoting Impact Wrestling in Indiana, Pennsylvania, Kurt Angle mentioned that TNA had "issues with the other company" and couldn't book any venues in Pittsburgh.

"Due to some issues with the other company [WWE], we really couldn't book any venues in Pittsburgh," Angle said. "If it goes well, we'll be back in the next six months and do it all over again."

Angle also spoke about his health and the various injuries he has worked through in the last couple of years. Despite the injuries suffered, Angle claims he is "one-hundred-percent" and "ready to go".
