Older fans might remember watching a cowardly Kurt Angle face The Undertaker back at Fully Loaded 2000 and Survivor Series the same year. Neither match really showed off what Angle could do, and that's likely 'cause 'Taker (according to Bruce Prichard's podcast) wasn't exactly digging the newcomer.

That had changed by No Way Out 2006, and thank God it had.

This match might fly under the radar of some, but here's your chance to put that right by watching it on the Network. On the last pay-per-view stop before WrestleMania 22, Angle and The Undertaker went close to 30 minutes in the main event slot for the old World Heavyweight Title and raised that belt's profile high above John Cena's WWE variant.

That's how good their exchanges were. Younger viewers will be shocked to see how fluid 'Taker once was, and they'll be equally surprised to watch Kurt move around the ring like he's Finn Bálor. This is one of the most under-appreciated WWE main events ever.
