He'll make your ankle hurt. The Angle slam..the ankle lock...Marty Jannetty still can't walk.

I went tap, tap, tap, like Angle did going Hollywood.

According to HBK's first book, Apparently it was Shawn's call for Angle to go over after the two talked about it. How many matches have there been where management doesn't decide who wins/loses?

One of my favourite matches to be sure, but looking back, it started the big trend of Wrestlemania matches having a million kick-outs/zoomed in shot of the wrestlers utter disbelief spots in them. I'd argue Austin/Rock is more guilty of starting the trend.

What makes this match one of the greatest ever, is you simply had no idea who was going to win, and therefore it's one of those matches you had to see live. There aren't too many matches over the course of history where you had no idea. Off the top of my head, that's what made matches like Hogan v Warrior, Cena v Batista 1, and Taker v HHH WM 28 some of my favorites.

I enjoyed it but if I was too make a list of my favourite matches of all time it would maybe struggle to crack the top 100. Still great match but jot as great as other matches from those guys I thought. I know it'll change but when I saw this post it had 4 likes and it made perfect sense.

Angle looked like the baddest man in the company coming out of this match.

I was so torn. HBK is one of my all time favourites but that night I was shouting "tap! Tap, you f***er!" At my TV. Awesome match. I was screaming "Tap you son of a bitch!" from section 103. Glad I wasn't the only one rooting for Kurt.

Such a great match. A top 50 all-time match for me.
