TNA Impact Wrestling star Kurt Angle took to Twitter on Friday afternoon, following his DWI arrest, which occurred early Friday morning in Decatur, Texas.
Angle addressed the arrest, as well as concern from fellow wrestlers and fans over the fact that this is his fourth alcohol-related arrest in six years.
“TNA and I Are Working to Get Me Better. I’m a fighter,” Angle wrote in a new tweet posted on his official Twitter account on Friday evening. “I’m Getting Help. Much Love,” Angle wrote in response to a fan. “I Will Beat this!” he tweeted to another fan. “I’m Human. It’s time for Me to Work On Me. GOD Bless.”
In addition to responses to fans and fellow wrestlers, such as Matt Hardy, Angle wrote a public tweet that read, “Thank You to All My friends Who Have Supported Me. GOD Bless!!! I Will Overcome this.”
