Gerald Brisco disrespects Kurt Angle by auctioning off his 2012 Hall of Fame inductee award

Kurt Angle is upset for Gerald Brisco auctioning off his 2012 Hall of Fame inductee award he was set to receive at the George Tragos/Lou Thesz Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame museum in Waterloo, Iowa this past weekend.

Jim Ross tweeted the following last night: “Kurt Anglewas unable to attend the HOF in Waterloo 2nite. Jerry Brisco auctioned off the award 4 $250.”

Kurt Angle went off on the decision on Twitter: “Jerry Brisco Made a Mockery Out Of Me and the Dan Gable Museum HOF By Auctioning Off My Award. This Award Is a Huge Honor. U Spit on Me …Due to Obligations I Had With My Wedding, I Could Not Attend HOF. I Even Made a 10 Min Video Proudly Accepting this Great Honor. I’m Disappointed I Couldn’t Go, But Devastated Jerry Gave Away My Award. Very Classy Jerry.” 

UPDATE:

The George Tragos/Lou Thesz wing of the National Wrestling Hall of Fame Dan Gable Museum has issued the following photo of plaque on Facebook and a note in response to reports of Kurt Angle’s outrage at Gerald Brisco auctioning off his award for $250 this weekend in Waterloo, Iowa.

“It’s true! Kurt Angle’s plaque is at the National Wrestling Hall of Fame Dan Gable Museum with Lou Thesz’s widow, Charlie Thesz. Gerry Brisco had the plaque back within an hour and it will be sent toKurt Angle.”
