5 WWE segments that didn't go as planned

#3 Daniel Puder shoots on Kurt Angle

Puder and Angle square off

Daniel Puder was the winner of WWE Tough Enough's season 4, after beating The Miz. On the November 4, 2004 edition of SmackDown, Kurt Angle challenged a bunch of Tough Enough contestants to fight him in the ring. When Puder's turn came, Angle took him down but was surprised by Puder with a Kimura Lock. Angle attempted a pinfall, to which Jimmy Korderas quickly responded and made the three count. Angle could be seen speaking to Puder right after the pin, and he was visibly furious at what had happened. Puder was a legitimate MMA fighter and could have broken Angle's arm.

At the 2005 Royal Rumble match, Puder was beaten up by Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero, and Hardcore Holly, with all three Superstars connecting several devastating and hard-hitting chops on Puder's chest. Eventually, Puder was eliminated from the free-for-all and was released by WWE later that year. Following the Royal Rumble fiasco, Puder was never used as an active competitor on the main roster.
