Top 10 WWE Smackdown Episodes of All Time

April 16, 2016

Brock Lesnar vs Hulk Hogan, August 4, 2002

This match was to be the coronation of Lesnar as the superstar. He tore through the most popular babyfaces in wrestling, and it was the right moment to smash Hogan, who was riding a wave of nostalgia at the time. Beast Incarnate proved that he was ready to acquire top prize and go for The Rock’s title, finishing off the Hulk with a bearhug.

That wasn’t the only highlight of the episode, as Cena faced Kurt Angle in a rematch he lost due to interference from Chris Benoit, leading to a massive six wrestler tag match later in the show. Angle, Benoit, and Eddie Guerrero wrestled against Cena, Mysterio, and Edge, making this fight one of the most star-studded matches in Smackdown history.
