10 Best Kurt Angle TNA Matches

#3 Kurt Angle vs. Jeff Jarrett - Genesis 2009

Best match of TNA's best feud

The feud between Kurt Angle and Jeff Jarrett is probably the greatest storyline in TNA Impact Wrestling history. The two fought several times on and off from 2007 through 2011, and the very best match of it came from their second ever encounter at Genesis 2009. They had their first match, which TNA had labelled a 'Dream Match' at Bound For Glory three months earlier, and it was good, but merely an appetizer for this solid No DQ bout.

Jarrett controlled the first couple of minutes, but Angle came back with a forearm that knocked Jeff off the guardrail and onto the guardrail at ringside. Angle went for the Angle Slam, but Jarrett avoided it and backdropped him over the top rope to ringside in a big spot, which would lead to a rough botch when Jarrett attempted a dive through the ropes, only for his knee to get caught and drop him hard on the floor.

Both men were busted open pretty bad just 10 minutes into it. Angle hit Jarrett with an Angle Slam off the stage through a table in a big spot. Jarrett hit The Stroke for a close near fall, which was soon followed by an Angle Slam for another close call. Angle nailed Jarrett with a chair for another close one, as did Jarrett. As Jarrett laid across Angle for the cover, Angle hooked his arms for the three.
