There's no shortage of instances of Eddie Guerrero bending the rules to win, and WrestleMania 20 was no exception.

In a truly under-rated classic, Guerero defended his newly-won WWE Championship against Kurt Angle.

Throughout the match, Guerrero favored his ankle, which had been targetted by the Olympian with a series of ankle locks.

When Guerrero removed his boot, presumably to ease the swelling, the shark-like Angle smelled blood, going for his submission once again.

However, this would prove to be his undoing, as Eddie would kick the unlaced boot off of his foot, a shock to Angle, which allowed Latino Heat to roll him up, of course using the ropes.

Just to stick it to the Olympic Gold Medalist, Eddie would reveal his ankle was fine after the match, revealing that if he couldn't out-wrestle Angle, he could out-think him.
