After losing the World Tag Team Championship to Undertaker and The Rock on Raw, Edge & Christian got a rematch on SmackDown. This time, Kurt Angle was the special guest referee. Undertaker and The Rock dominated early on, but Angle refused to make any counts. His actions earned him a Rock Bottom and Earl Hebner ran down to referee the rest of the match. Hebner also became distracted later on, and during that time Angle hit an Angle Slam on The Rock, leading to a win for Edge & Christian. It was the team’s fifth title reign, which tied the record held by the New Age Outlaws.
