A Year of Changes

Did you hear: Kurt Angle was abused by WWE and Vince McMahon, never given time off to get healthy, and was constantly booked to look awful in the ring? Or at least, that's Kurt's story, and he's sticking to it! And he's sticking to it while working for one-quarter of his old fanbase in TNA. I doubt anybody would have predicted that happening a year ago... Perhaps a bit less shocking is the fact that WWE managed to completely bungle the return of ECW, to the point that Paul Heyman has left the company. The Canadian Bulldog has his EXCLUSIVE~! (and yes, Fully Illustrated) take on Angle's horrible mistreatment, ECW's demise, and the rest of the big stories from the second half of 2006 in Part Two of the Inside the Ropes Year in Review.
