Summary
Kurt Angle said Ray Lewis would struggle in a Real American Freestyle bout, warning the 51-year-old NFL great could get hurt against elite freestyle wrestlers.
Angle said Lewis' high school wrestling background may not be enough because RAF matches are "real" Olympic-style contests, even if Lewis joins partly to represent the promotion.
The warning follows reports last week that RAF was in talks to book Lewis for a match before year-end, though no deal had been finalized.
Angle, an Olympic gold medalist and former RAF commentator, said he was cut for budget reasons without hard feelings and still expects the league to grow globally.
RAF, launched last year by Hulk Hogan, Chad Bronstein, Izzy Martinez and Eric Bischoff, airs on Fox Nation and holds RAF14 in Las Vegas on Oct. 23.
