Speaking of pro wrestling (as I am in the Superstar Shakeup live blog), Kurt Angle is the current general manager on Monday Night Raw, an Olympic gold medalist, and a Catholic.  

When CM Punk (currently retired from wrestling) called Pope Benedict XVI “a Nazi” in 2013, Angle came to the Holy Father’s defense, albeit a rather earthy manner.  I, for one, have no problem with Pope Benedict “whip[ping] Punk’s skinny ass.”  I doubt His Holiness has any plans to do so, however.

Saint Sebastian, patron of athletes, pray for us.

Pope Benedict XVI, pray for us.
