Of all the enemies Brock Lesnar has made over the course of his career in WWE, Kurt Angle is undoubtedly his most memorable. The two took the year of 2003 by storm with their awesome matches and fantastic chemistry, further solidifying SmackDown as the “wrestling” show. In their first ever one-on-one match on the March 13 edition of SmackDown, Angle emerged victorious, handing Lesnar his second ever loss by pinfall in singles competition. He wasn’t as fortunate at WrestleMania 19, however, as Angle was unsuccessful in beating The Beast.

It wasn’t until SummerSlam that Angle and Lesnar met in a rematch, this time with Angle portraying the babyface and Lesnar portraying the heel. Despite his veteran status in the company, Angle was fighting an uphill battle against Lesnar, looking to prove that he could defeat The Next Big Thing in a high profile match. Not only did he beat Lesnar at the event, he forced him to tap out, becoming to only man in WWE history to hand Lesnar losses on two separate occasions. Lesnar hasn’t submitted since, but with an Angle WWE return being rumored, The Conqueror better watch his back as WWE World Heavyweight champion.
