I think what Peter and Lloyd meant when they created the series is that it meant "Epic Rap Battles that will go down in history" as a humoristic title.

The first actually historical (and that's debatable) of their matchups is, to me, ERB#7, Einstein vs Hawking. None of the early ERBs are actually about history (cf their first battle, John Lennon vs f-ing Bill O'Reilly, or the historical figures like Hitler, Beethoven, Benjamin Franklin, Columbus going against pop culture icons/fictional characters).
