Kurt Angle shared his views on working as a heel during that time against The Rock and Austin. Angle recalled a tag team match. He said, “Well it’s something we had to do because it was the four of us going to be in undisputed wrestling tournament and I think they wanted to showcase the match and give us a little bit each of the match.
“I don’t think we had enough heat going into vengeance. If anything I got the wrong kind of heat, Angle slamming Jericho instead of giving heat on The Rock or Austin because Jericho and I were two heels and Rock and Austin were the two babyfaces.”
Chris Jericho won the Undisputed Tournament as he defeated The Rock and Austin on the same night and took both the world titles home that night. Even though Angle lost that night, he did his part of being a heel and putting over Austin and The Rock that night.
Will The Rock have one more match?
