It’s November 4th, 2004, and for Kurt Angle, it was supposed to be a regular day in the ring, but what nearly happens could have changed the careers of him & his “opponent” forever!
On this episode of the DEADLOCK Podcast, we’re going to take a look at the infamous incident between Kurt Angle & Tough Enough Season 4’s Daniel Puder. Puder, who is definitely from the UFC, has become a fan favorite as of late on the SmackDown-exclusive “Million Dollar Tough Enough”. Al Snow has brought Kurt Angle out to teach these guys a lesson in what it takes to be a WWE Superstar, including doing squats, running, eating pasta, and drinking milk.
After Kurt puts them through a session of burpees, he asks any of the competitors if they want to get in the ring with him. Daniel Puder is the man to step up to the plate, and everything after that is history.
Also on this episode, Booker T is getting ready for his PPV title match against JBL, but JBL & his “Chief of Staff” Orlando Jordan have come up with a plan to try to take him out before then. Josh Mathews interviews Orlando Jordan before his scheduled match with Booker T, and Orlando & JBL’s attitude sets Josh off, leading to him teaming up with Booker T in the MAIN EVENT of this SmackDown to face JBL & Orlando!
We also can’t forget that Luther Reigns & Mark Jindrak are on this show. They take on the team of RVD & Rey Mysterio! Spike Dudley & The Dudley Boyz look to take out The Big Show before Survivor Series, and Jackie Gayda looks to defend the honor of her man, Charlie Haas, against Dawn Marie in an Arm Wrestling Contest. 2004 really was special.
