Long before Brock Lesnar ended The Undertaker's 21-0 undefeated streak at WrestleMania 30, the two were battling for the top spot on SmackDown in 2002. Lesnar had just jumped ship to the blue brand and was looking to make an impact by going after The Deadman. Although Lesnar was victorious in their Hell in a Cell match at No Mercy, their feud was far from over. In the same month he decimated the likes of Spanky and Zach Gowen, Lesnar was fuming following his loss to then-WWE champion at 2003's SummerSlam event and was set to do battle with Big Show and Undertaker in a No Disqualification Triple Threat match on the August 28 SmackDown. Lesnar and 'Taker reignited their rivalry from one year prior and held nothing back. At the same time, they didn't underestimate the inclusion of Big Show who was also looking to put his name into the hat of title contention. After a hard-fought outing, Undertaker pinned Lesnar following a devastating Last Ride for the victory. Granted, it may not have been in one-on-one occasion, but it marked the one and only time that 'Taker would defeat Lesnar in their 12 year-long history together.
