Currently signed to WWE as a “free agent,” Lesnar’s greatest rivalry during the Ruthless Aggression Era was against Kurt Angle, producing one of the best wrestling matches when Kurt Angle defended the WWE title against Brock Lesnar in the Smackdown Iron Man Match. So, it came as no surprise when Kurt Angle revealed on his podcast, the Kurt Angle Show, that Brock wanted to join him in TNA, saying: According to the WWE Hall of Famer, Lesnar was unable to join TNA since he wasn’t able to come to an agreement with the promotion. Although the two rivals didn’t get the chance to fight each other again in the same promotion, they faced each other once again in 2007 when Lesnar defended his IWGP Heavyweight Championship against Kurt Angle, who was the TNA World Heavyweight Champion then, in a champion vs. champion match that Kurt Angle won.
