10 Best WWE Brock Lesnar Matches: 2002 - 2004

#8 Brock Lesnar vs. Kurt Angle - SummerSlam 2003

'You tapped out'

Even after everyone Brock has faced over the last six years in WWE, no one has ever come as close as to have the amazing chemistry he had with Kurt Angle back in 2003. These two had the best feud of 2003, due in large part to all the matches between being among the best of the entire year.

Unlike their first pay-per-view match earlier that year at WrestleMania XIX, this time the roles were reversed as Angle was the face and Lesnar the heel, and it made for a dynamic even better than they had before.

The match kicked off with some good mat based wrestling, both digging into their amateur backgrounds.

After Brock attempted to walk away with the WWE Championship, Angle dragged him back and gave him a beautiful belly to belly suplex. As usual with these two, a lot of back and forth action, with several different suplex variations from both.

Angle played to his speed for most, while Brock his strength. Brock hit an F-5, only for Kurt to kick out, while Lesnar kicked out of the Angle Slam. Kurt applied the Ankle Lock several times, which had damaging effect on Brock as he spent the final few minutes fighting on one foot. Vince McMahon interfered, assisting Brock, which leads to Lesnar performing a one-legged F-5 on Kurt!

Angle would Angle Slam Vince on a chair, and locked in the Ankle Lock again, only for this time for Lesnar to tap out for the first time in his career.
