Kurt Angle on what upset him about Rey Mysterio at WWE WrestleMania 22

In 2006, Rey Mysterio won the Royal Rumble match and faced Randy Orton and Kurt Angle in a Triple Threat match at WrestleMania 22 for the World Heavyweight Championship. The Master of the 619 won the title that night.

During an episode of WWE Playback on YouTube, The Olympic Gold medalist told Rey Mysterio that he was upset with his entrance, as it took too long.

"What I was upset about was your damn entrance (laughs). Our match got cut, and your entrance had to be eight minutes long. And I was like, 'My gosh, we're not even gonna have a wrestling match.' But it actually turned out to be a great match... We had to pick it up. (The entrance) was freaking cool, but I was so mad. You went all the way up, I'm like, ‘Is he gonna get out in the ring?’" Angle said.
