Kurt Angle versus Chris Benoit @ Backlash '01 = 6.6
Given that some said they enjoyed this match better than their match at WrestleMania X-Seven, I'm a bit surprized at the 6.6 rating. I remember this match being much better than it was at the time I watched it on Pay Per View back in 2001. I just re-watched the match today and it was definitely kind of blah/whatever.

The next installment of the Kurt Angle versus Chris Benoit, Rate the Match series is from the 2003 Royal Rumble and it was for the WWE Championship. In what might be their best match, and the remembered for the huge standing ovation that Chris Benoit recieved afterwards. This match tore the freaking house down, and it was right after the very ugly HHH/Steiner match.
