Update on Matt Cappotelli’s Release, A-Train Angers Kurt Angle

January 22, 2009

Giant Bernard, formerly A-Train of WWE, apparently angered Kurt Angle following a mistimed powerbomb that Bernard gave Angle following a match they taped for TV in Japan. Bernard was supposed to wait a few minutes after the match concluded do deliver the bomb, which would allow TNA to edit the move out of their broadcast, however Bernard went right into the spot following the match finish. TNA does not want to air footage of Bernard doing a move like that to a top star like Angle, as he may come off as the weaker of the two.
