Kurt Angle vs Samoa Joe [Loser is Fired]
They started out with a lock-up and some very fine technical wrestling. Sike. They started punching each other before the bell even rang, and they both looked like they actually wanted to kill the other. They brawled around on the mat, and spilled to the outside, but there was still no break in the raw brawling. Angle created some space after some European Uppercuts, and then he threw Joe against the barricade. He charged, but Joe caught him and planted him with an STO on the ground!
