20 Greatest WWE SmackDown Moments Ever

20. He Hurt Kurt

As awkward as it was (literally) gripping, the shoot showdown between Tough Enough competitor and Mixed Martial Arts amateur Daniel Puder and Kurt Angle almost ended in disaster for the Olympian when the trainee very nearly broke his arm in an open challenge.

The storyline called for Angle the bully heel to roughhouse the candidates, but Puder's unexpected skillset left the Hall Of Famer in all sorts of bother before the two rolled into enough of a pinning combination for the referees to count three. Angle looked incensed as he squared up to Puder in the aftermath, with few fans fortunately catching how close he was to capitulation.
