#5 Kurt Angle vs. Mr. Anderson: TNA Lockdown 2010

Do you remember Mr. Kennedy from WWE? The same guy who'd have a microphone drop from the ceiling every time he entered the ring, so he could introduce himself as Misterrrrrr... Kennedy. Kennedy. Yes, WWE's ultimate ‘next big thing who never was' in spite of all the tools, had a good run with TNA under the ring name Mr. Anderson.

As it happened, he had been locked with Kurt Angle inside a cage at TNA Lockdown 2010. And, the result was a spectacular match. While this was a match of some serious vengeance and a story of Angle punishing Anderson, you can really watch the match for just two Kurt Angle spots.

Firstly, a top rope German Suplex to Mr. Anderson, that was nothing but brutal, and then a beautiful Moonsault off the top of the cage by the Olympic hero to his rival, where he seemed to have really landed on the top of Anderson's face. Ouch! It still feels insane.

We have to remember this match came after the Olympic Gold Medalist had had ‘Hall of Fame' worthy careers with both WWE and TNA, yet his desire to leave everything in there really makes this bout feel even more special. Undoubtedly, it's Kurt Angle's TNA's greatest match.
