12) Kurt Angle: More than just some DUIs
An unwillingness to enter rehab ultimately cost Angle his career with the WWE. The WWE realized Kurt needed help after receiving several alcohol-related charges. His problem only got worse while he was working for TNA, picking up three additional DUIs.
Angle later entered rehab realizing his life was in serious jeopardy. After completing his time at the rehabilitation center, Angle realized his problems were much deeper than alcohol abuse. Kurt became aware that he was carrying around some serious emotional stress, and little did Angle know he was battling depression. The former WWE Champion realized through rehab that alcohol was only a way to suppress this pain. Thankfully, entering rehab potentially saved his life and Angle was able to get out of his long bout with depression without any further harm. The comeback will truly be complete when Angle sets foot back in a WWE ring.
