#8 Shawn Michaels vs. Kurt Angle - Vengeance 2005

Always magic between them
Always magic between them

Shawn Michaels and Kurt Angle had an absolutely stunning encounter at WrestleMania 21 earlier in 2005. When Kurt was drafted over to RAW three months later, they reopened their feud and set up this rematch for the Vengeance pay-per-view.

Shawn Michaels vs. Kurt Angle II was outstanding. It wasn't as great as their clash at WrestleMania 21 but it almost was, almost. The action here was smooth, a great mix of styles, lots of drama and intensity and many different moments where it looked like it was going to end, but didn't. Michaels picked up the win when Angle jumped from the top rope, landing on some Sweet-Chin Music.

Shawn and Kurt would go onto have a 30 minute Iron Man on the RAW homecoming show as a rubber match, but it ended in a draw. As exciting as it was and one final match between them in January 2006, they couldn't hold a candle to WrestleMania 21 or this epic showdown
