On May 19, 2002, Edge and Kurt Angle met in a Hair vs. Hair Match at Judgment Day 2002. The match was the culmination of a rivalry that had been brewing for several months.
The build-up to the match had been intense, with Angle taunting Edge over his flowing locks and challenging him to put them on the line. Edge, never one to back down from a challenge, accepted, and the stage was set for an epic showdown.
The match itself was a rollercoaster ride of excitement and drama, with both men trading high-risk moves and brutal strikes. Angle, a former Olympic gold medalist, relied on his technical prowess and grappling skills to gain the upper hand, while Edge used his athleticism and aerial ability to keep Angle on his toes.
In the end, it was Edge who emerged victorious, hitting Angle with a roll-up and securing the three-count. As per the stipulations of the match, Angle was forced to have his head shaved. But perhaps most importantly, it was a match that cemented Edge’s status as one of WWE’s top stars. His victory over Angle was a career-defining moment, and his subsequent rise to the top of the company was a testament to his talent and dedication.
