#1 Backstage at WrestleMania 19 after his match against Kurt Angle
The main event of WrestleMania 19 pitted Brock Lesnar and Kurt Angle for the WWE Championship. The finish to the incredible match was Brock’s infamous botched Shooting Star Press, which left Lesnar with a concussion but it could have met much worse.
Kurt Angle described what happened right after Lesnar’s botched move:
"I was concerned about him because he wasn’t responding. When I covered him, he did kick out. I did tell him to kick out, and he kicked out. I remember asking him, ‘Can you give me an F-5?’ He didn’t respond. I was getting really worried. I started picking him up. I said, ‘Could you F-5 me?’ He said, ‘I think so,’ and he did."
Lesnar was taken backstage where a crowd gathered around while WWE doctors checked on him. As can be seen in the video below, Lesnar felt uncomfortable at everyone surrounding him and lost his cool. However, Gerald Briscoe calmed him down.
