PITTSBURGH - Professional wrestler and Olympic gold medalist Kurt Angle and his former girlfriend have agreed to have no contact with one another, about three months after Angle was charged with assaulting her.

An Allegheny County judge signed the order Monday. Trenesha Biggers, who's a wrestler herself, also withdrew a protection from abuse complaint against Angle, but he's scheduled for a preliminary hearing Tuesday for a simple assault charge in the case.

Police say Angle attacked Biggers at his suburban Pittsburgh home Aug. 6.

In September, a district judge cleared Angle of possessing human growth hormone. The 40-year-old wrestler had a prescription for neck injuries.
