During last night’s TNA Impact Wrestling tapings Kurt Angle announced he will be taking some time off as he had a tumor on his neck which will require surgery.

PWInsider.com is reporting that the Olympic gold medalist has known about the tumor for “about a year” but wasn’t causing problems until recently, leading to muscle atrophy.

His announcement will air sometime during late July or early August and he’ll likely miss the next set of summer tapings.
