WWE Judgment Day 2003 (2003)

What makes it different from others?

That was an excellent one.

Charming and brutal

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

This was in my view the best of WWE pay-per-view of 2003 F.B.I & John Cena vs Spanky Rhyno and Chris Benoit-i thought this was a very good and entertaining match. I think if it would have gone on a little longer it could have been an instant classic. 4 1/2 /5 Scott Steiner & Test vs La Resustance- Boring match, Scott Steiner and Test had the potential to be a great team but just weren't good together, la resistance doesn't help because they really suck also. 1 1/2 /5 Team Angle vs Eddie Guerrero and Tajiri- Great match, definitely the show stealer. Team Angle proved that they are multi-talented in the ring proving they aren't just great mat technicians, but they can brawl to. Eddie Guerero(RIP) and Tajiri were great together being that it was the first time they tagged together- 5/5 Battle Royal- Pretty good battle royal, I've seen better though, surprised by the ending as well i truly thought Booker T was going to win.Bikini challenge- WOW what can i say torrie Wilson and Sable. This was one of the best bikini challenges WWE ever had! Torrie was smokin in that sparkly really small bikini. 600000000000/5 Mr. America vs Roddy Piper- An okay match considering the age of these guys, but an overall good match. 3/5 Triple H vs Kevin Nash- Not as bad as some will tell you. A good fist fight brawl, sure it could have been better but pretty entertaining and the powerbomb through the table is great. 4/5 Trish Stratus vs Jaqueline vs Victoria vs Jazz- eh, just ok-2 1/2/5 Brock Lesnar vs Big Show Strecher Match- This was a good match, i was actually a little disappointed( but still an excellent match) I thought there would be more weapon use but still brutal nonetheless. 4 1/2 /5

I agree with the other imdb user. This PPV was the pits, ladder bout aside. The segments between Austin-Bischoff were amusing but we dont buy the PPVs to watch interviews. This was probably the worst card since King of the Ring 95 and that event was just inferior to this one. If you havent seen this event, DONT.

The May PPV Judgment Day shows just what is wrong with WWE at the moment- stuff like A) not giving matches enough time, B) favouring feud-building, promos and storylines over actual wrestling, C) giving main event slots to the bigger, slower guys and burying the talented smaller guys in pointless feuds or on Velocity/Heat. I've been watching wrestling for 11 years and I'm sad to say that (despite an extensive and talented roster) this is the worst it's been for some time! Judgment Day went down like this: (Spoilers)MATCH 1- The FBI (Palumbo & Stamboli) and John Cena vs Brian Kendrick, Chris Benoit & Rhyno. Great potential for this match, but it was given less than 4 minutes. That's a travesty! They could have easily ditched a few promos and the pathetic bikini contest and let this match go longer. Disappointing. Kendrick, on the other hand, is fantastic- he seems to be really popular with the crowds and he always looks to give 110% in the ring. (So like I said, next stop Velocity!) FBI get the win with the Kiss of Death, a double-team move resembling Demolition's old finisher. Good match, which I can't rate, due to its brevity.MATCH 2- La Resistance vs Test & Steiner. Less said about this the better. Double-team spinebuster on Steiner for the win. The whole "hate us, we're French" thing is so damn lazy as a gimmick and I'd be surprised if they continue 'getting heat' on a long-term basis. Bad stuff here. (2/10)MATCH 3- Eddy Guerrero & Tajiri vs Team Angle--Ladder Match for the SD! Tag titles. Impressive ladder match. Guerrero's frog splash was tremendous and Shelton's leap off the ladder (a la The Beverly Brothers) looked nasty! Ouch. Good win for Eddy & Tajiri, who was filling in for an injured Chavo Guerrero. (7/10)MATCH 4- Battle Royal for the returning IC Title. Poorly put together. Most of the guys (RVD, Kane, Storm, Val Venis) were gone after about a minute and a half! Came down to Jericho, Booker T & Christian. Christian won, under somewhat controversial circumstances (ripping off Austin's Royal Rumble 'win' in 97) I'd like to think that they're not giving Jericho the title because they're setting him up for a shot at Triple H. Yeah, right. They should've never taken him off Smackdown! Huge mistake. (4/10)The bikini contest was up next. An utter waste of time (and pointless, since both Sable & Torrie were in Playboy.) Sable got a bigger cheer, but oddly, Torrie was declared winner.MATCH 5- Mr America vs Roddy Piper. How can this pathetic Mr America thing be Smackdown's top plot? Shocking stuff. I'm not gonna comment on the match- the rating speaks for itself. (0/10)MATCH 6- Triple H vs Kevin Nash--World (RAW) title match. Awful feud, awful match, awful finish. This piece of crap is gonna drag on into Bad Blood as well. Cheap DQ finish and a totally undeserving challenger in Nash. His kickout of the Pedigree actually managed to piss me off! If the move (used once) can beat talented guys like Angle, Jericho and Booker, why does Nash get to kick out of it? Only highlight was the post-match Jackknife through the announcer's table. Oh yeah, Triple H's purple boots were really dodgy! (2/10)MATCH 7- Fatal 4 Way for the Women's title- Trish vs Jazz vs Victoria vs Jacqueline. Good show from the women. Trish took a hard landing out on the floor and busted her lip, but still kept going. Fair play to her. RAW really needs more women wrestlers (or at least stop letting Jazz squash Molly & Ivory!) Jazz DDTs Jackie for the 1-2-3. (7/10)MATCH 8- Brock Lesnar vs Big Show--Stretcher match for the WWE (SmackDown!) title. Just one big brawl up until the disappearance of Brock and the appearance of Rey Mysterio. Things get really good after that! Brock makes novel use of a forklift to move Big Show for the win. (Bit boring up til Mysterio) (4.5/10)Poor show from the WWE. No Goldberg, no Kidman, Hurricane, Matt Hardy- this PPV could've done with a dose of Mattitude! The PPV split is very dangerous from WWE's point of view. RAW is noticeably the weaker show- something drastic will have to be done.Some awful matches, too many promos and bad time management led this to be one of the worst PPVs in the past few years.

I disagree in what evilshadow76 had said. I have spoke to many WWE fans that have watched it for years and they thought this PPV was the best of the year and I agree. What evilshadow says about Raw title is harsh. People knew that HHH/Nash wudnt be gud thats why it didnt last long and it was a great finish, Nash puts HHH right through the table without taking out the monitors which was great to see. I say that HHH will lose the title next month at Badd Blood. The ladder match was superb, I was dissapointed that Chavo was out but Tajiri put on a great match the green mist :) and they used the ladders superbly. The First match Benoit/Rhyno/Spanky vs FBI/Cena was ok all right to start of with. The Test/Steiner vs French dudes was bad. The Austin/Bischoff segments were funny was usual, you go to see them. The Womens match was nothing special, the Mr America vs Roddy Piper again was nothing special I just cant believe how Piper looks now its awful. The Brock vs The Big Show was probably the best and everyone will agree, it was very entertaining and Brock and Show put a good match on at last, an amazing Stretcher match with the use of a forklift they should leave Show on that forklift all night.Overall I think that this PPV beats Backlash and beats No Mercy and Royal Rumble it was a very entertaining and exciting PPV. The WWE are getting better.
