Feels weird to post about this in an Old School thread, but I was watching the "Wrestlemania's 10 Greatest Matches" that aired on SpikeTV back before Wrestlemania XX, and #10 was Benoit/Angle at the Astrodome. Anyway, I checked it out again and remembered reading in Angle's book (not very good I know, but it was $7 a few years ago) that he had told Benoit to try and actually wrestle him for the start of it.
Were they really just going at it out there at the beginning or was Angle just foreshadowing his current dementia?
