In case some of you missed the previous weeks SD! where Brock vs Kurt happened, something happened. Kurt Angle pinned Brock Lesnar. Now some of you will say that this was not a clean win, that it was trickery involved, well Look at this: Brock was in charge. He had beat Eric Angle up and F5 him. He got rid of Team Angle. Then he got back in the ring and got roled up into a small package. The 1-2-3 fell. There was no chair, no brass knuckles no nothing. He was pinned cleanly in the middle of the ring by a pure wrestling hold. He legitimately lost....for the first time. Kurt Angle is the man.

I'm not sure it was all that historical. I personally count last year's Survivor Series as Brock's first pinfall loss, but if you're going to disregard that, then you must do the same for last week's SmackDown. Chair or no chair, Lesnar was still overcome by underhand chicanery, so I find it hard to see this as a legitimate, clean victory for Kurt Angle.

I would not count any of Brocks losses, as both have been screw jobs

I wouldnt count it as clean. Clean says to me that then end has to happen without interference or distraction of any kind. And nothing can have previously happened illegally in the match if it has taken effect on the wrestler.
For example if Ric Flair beats on Booker T, Booker T fights out and carries on unaffected and loses to Angle - CLEAN
If Booker T is hit in the leg with a chair and is affected and then Angle puts on the Anglelock later in the match and he taps - UNCLEAN

I counted that loss as an unclean loss because there was two diffrent guys in the ring not at the same time but it was steal cheating and I count any match won by cheating a unclean win.

The bottom line is that Brock has been pinned twice, and thats that. If we're going to get into 'screw jobs' like hitting someone with a chair, or what ever, then why just speak for Brock defense? Why not go through other super stars? To me, it's simple, The Next Big Thing has been beaten 2 times.

HHH has had unclean wins for most of this year. and so have a lot of superstars, bt the record books show them as losers and thats the bottom line.

Yeah that is true but if we are properly looking into a wrestlers loss record then clean losses have to be noted first. Kane has rarely been cleanly pinned but hes lost more times that most
