5 WWE Superstars that struggled with alcohol addiction

Kurt Angle

Sober now

Kurt Angle is one of those superstars that has made his mark in the business. He had a great run in WWE first and then went on to TNA and got them a place in the map too. While these all contribute to the good side of Angle’s career, he has had to endure his own struggles. Angle was addicted to pain killers and alcohol that he had to consume in order to keep wrestling.

His alcohol addictions apparently led to four arrests and eventually forced him into rehab. Since then, Angle claims that he has been sober for a long time but his phase of addiction is enough to get him into this list.
