#2 Kurt Angle vs. Samoa Joe - Lockdown 2008
This was a very different and unique cage match to all other cage matches we had seen in TNA previously, mostly because it had more of an MMA feel to it.

Kurt Angle and Samoa Joe just had amazing chemistry together, and they always put on a clinic when they got in the ring with each other. And out of the dozens of great matches they had together, this one was easily the best. Angle has talked about this match before, calling it very difficult to do at the time, but he should be very proud because they put on an unforgettable performance.
The match featured a series of submissions, reversals to other submissions, strong style kicks, forceful punches, mat wrestling and a nice blend of standard Joe and Angle move sets. Joe pinned Angle after a Muscle Buster to lift the only TNA Heavyweight Championship he would ever win.
