The road to WrestleMania is finally in full gear right now. But while there is Elimination Chamber in this era of WWE, we used to have No Way Out. Not only did we get amazing matches, but it was equally filled with high-stakes bouts for the coming WrestleMania of the year.
So, it’s no surprise that The Undertaker, one of the biggest legends in the game, went to have a classic with another wrestling legend on this same day. That legend was none other than Olympic gold medalist, Kurt Angle. The two had an absolute classic in the ring at No Way Out 2006.

Fighting for the World Championship, the two went at each other, creating magic. Now, 17 years later, the legends are reminiscing about the match and the fans can’t help but fall into nostalgia, thinking about these two.
The Undertaker praises his past opponent and the fans rally behind
When Kurt Angle shared a clip of their No Way Out match, reminiscing about the old days, The Undertaker respectfully responded to it. Tweeting, “I always enjoyed facing @RealKurtAngle! A rare talent that could make you laugh hysterically backstage, but you had better lace up you boots tight before stepping in the ring with him…he could go!!!!”

Legends speaking their own stories really makes these memories special for them and the fans.
So cool hearing story's like this from legends.

Many fans seem to believe in this sentiment as well.
Genuinely believe he's one of the most underrated talents of all time. Never seems to be in the GOAT conversation yet he was a gold medal winner who had it ALL.

With Kurt Angle being one of the best technical wrestlers, Taker had to bring his A-game as well.
Hands down a classic. To think we got to see this in both your prime is great. When I look back, it’s a career defining performance for both, Taker showed absolute wrestling prowess, technical ability matched with Kurt’s intensity and tenacity. Thanks Kurt & Taker

It would have been another classic for WrestleMania that year.
This match should have been at Wrestlemania

It still feels weird for The Undertaker to tweet something like this.
Did Michelle write this? Or one of your kids?

You & Kurt are 2 of the most breathtaking performers ever & your matches were incredible.. you could both go! BIG TIME! I just watched back the 2006 match of you & Kurt vs. MNM & Mark Henry, where you both choke slammed & tombstoned MH. Kurt’s reactions were priceless. 😵😯😳

This just goes to show how much the people adore Taker even after his retirement. Also, if we were to sit and count all of the classic moments and matches that the Deadman has given us, we’d be here for a long time. While we might not see him again in the ring, Taker has done enough for this industry and its fans to be memorialized as an icon forever.
