5 Best Wrestling Matches of 2010

#4 Kurt Angle vs. Mr. Anderson - TNA Lockdown

While 2010 was something of a bad year for TNA (thanks to the debuts of Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff), that company still managed to produce a few hidden gems, including this one.

Without understanding any story or rivalry, Anderson and Angle wrestled a dramatic cage match that the crowd loved from the moment it started. They cheered in approval without ever quieting down, even during the typical ‘low’ points in a wrestling match.

While Anderson tried his best, he was simply no match for Angle. Kurt was as much a wrestling machine here as he had ever been, showing his typical intensity and determination. He put his own body through incredible punishment and dished it out all the same, including a German Suplex off the top rope as Anderson tried to climb the cage.

Angle proved just how crazy and passionate he is for wrestling in this match. Despite having the key to escape the cage, Angle re-locked the cage, threw away the key, and decided to hit a moonsault off the top of the cage. He didn’t have to do this; he did it anyway just to prove he still had it. People thought Angle was done by 2006, yet he was still able to pull off great things at least four years later. He truly was one of the best wrestlers in the world.
