That was kind of my point.
Tonight, Angle beat Shawn's accomplishment of facing Razor Ramone in the first ever ladder match and winning the IC title... by squashing a jobber, climbing the ladder, and taking his medals. Couldn't have been more than 4 minutes. The only thing remotely similar was the fact that a ladder was sort of kind of involved.
And next week, he's facing Marty Janetty (sp?). Marty was Shawn's partner in The Rockers... and, I don't see how beating Marty means Angle is matching HBK's accomplishments. Did Shawn beat Marty? If so, why wasn't it mentioned when Angle briefly touched upon them being a tag team?
I knew this would be a half-assed attempt at telling a story. Back to not watching Smackdown.
