19 Mind Blowing Facts About Brock Lesnar

5. He Had A Shoot Wrestle With Kurt Angle

Another shoot wrestle that Lesnar took part in was with Olympic gold medallist Kurt Angle. This time, Lesnar didn't find it so easy. This is what Angle told Jim Ross on The Ross Report, "The match was tight. There's no doubt about it. There was only one takedown. I took Brock down, and that was it. That's when I put the fingers up, said two, and it's over. But we went a good 12 to 15 minutes. It was a good battle; Brock did outweigh me by about 70 pounds at the time. He was a big boy, but I knew that. It was a tight match. Did I beat him? Yeah, I edged him." The shoot took place in 2002, when Angle was still in relatively decent shape. There's little doubt that Lesnar would have won any contest from 2004 onwards when Angle's physical problems started mounting up.
