The fight

According to Angle, he had heard Lesnar saying that he would kill Angle in a real fight, as the former Olympic gold medalist was “too small”. The Beast said the exact same thing to Angle when he confronted him, resulting in Angle challenging Brock to a real-life match.

After Lesnar had just finished slamming Big Show in a practice bout, Angle took the opportunity and challenged Lesnar right there. As a crowd of WWE Superstars surrounded the ring, both Superstars jumped into the ring and kicked off the ‘match’.
