What do you get if you combine two of the best workers ever, give them 30 minutes of ring time, and ask them to tell a story? You get the main event of No Way Out 2006 between The Undertaker and Kurt Angle. One of the finest examples of storytelling you're ever likely to see, this one could easily have headlined WrestleMania 22.

Instead, Angle was part of a Triple Threat match for the World Title and 'Taker met Mark Henry in an anaemic Casket Match on the grand stage. Neither could come close to what was achieved at No Way Out; seriously, if you've never watched this one before then it's an absolute must.

Going heavy on submissions and devoid of the usual main event interference fans had come to expect, Angle and The Undertaker capped off an excellent pay-per-view with a match deserving of the headline slot. 'Taker's pained facial expressions as he was locked in the Ankle Lock were just the tip of the iceberg.
