When Chavo Guerrero suffered an injury at a television taping just days before he and Eddie were due to compete in a Tag Team Title ladder match at Judgment Day 2003, WWE didn't panic. 

They made the best of an unfortunate situation by substituting in the talented and underutilised Tajiri, with the Japanese Buzzsaw and Latino Heat winning the titles in their first outing together. 

Team Angle, naturally, wanted their rematch and received it on the post-Judgement Day episode of SmackDown. 

There were no ladders involved this time, but their match was no less thrilling because of it. Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin were really starting to come into their own as a unit at this point, and their amateur wrestling style meshed perfectly with their more experienced high-flying foes. 

All four guys are great, but veteran Eddie held it all together, dictating the flow and taking a beating to set up Tajiri's hot tag. 

The ending was classic Eddie, too, as he set Haas up and had him DQ'd. That result led to more matches between the two teams, something that nobody could rightly complain about.
