I hope this is legit and it's not just Angle playing everyone as he's since deleted the tweets.

Im eally hoping its true. Why would he get HIS FANS hopes up like that only to throw them down again? I dont see it. Hopefully THQ just made him take it down.

I saw his twitter this morning before it was deleted so he must have deleted after that. I read those posts on his twitter before posting this info here.

Edit: if you press the all tweets button on Kurts twitter page the wwe13 tweets are still there

When did Twitter make that update? That's annoying. :2

It's gonna be interesting to see if he was telling the truth.

If he is... Weve gotta be getting The Hardys. The Dudleys! Al Snow and Head!

Ask yourselves the following question: Which former WWE wrestlers signed off on a Legends contract agreement prior to their departure from the company.... Those are the folks that stand to have a chance of making this game where as I am not sure Kurt did such unlike guys like Hogan and all who we have already seen in past games and such...... so I would imagine that is a huge factor in THQ / Yukes determining who they wish to incorp. to the game.

That's not completely true. You don't have to have a Legends contract to be in a WWE video game. Look at AllStars. Hogan, Warrior and Savage were all on bad terms with WWE, however because they were the most requested Superstars to not ever appear in a WWE THQ video game (except Hogan a few times), THQ asked WWE that if they had enough money to sign them to contracts to appear in the game, if WWE would have any exception, and they said no. That's how they got cleared. In RVD's case, its was a one game deal, used as enticement to make him stay in WWE, but he left after he signed, so he still got to appear.

Not really saying any good about THQ, as per my personal, friend like interactions with them that turned sour, and the quality of their games (indefensible), but they could, infact, have signed him to a personal service contract to appear. Is it feasible? Sure. Is it probable?No, especially with TNA's lawsuit against WWE right now, that's caused them to hold off on signing Matt Morgan, Ric Flair, Angelina Love, and I'm sure the newly released Velvet Sky.

Off topic: I really hope WWE would capitalize this opportunity to sign The Beautiful People now that they have been released. Remember, they were the original cause for LayCool's incarnation. Besides, since there has been no Kelly Kelly, the Divas Division really doesn't exist anymore. Also, the person who would have kept the Division interesting at all has now just been released by WWE because she was indifferent on her character change. I'm betting they were giving her character "the Mark Henry smiling" routine.

On topic: As much as I'd love to have Kurt Angle in any type of WWE related product, the fact of the matter is, it's too good to be true. If anything, he's teasing the fans.
