Summary: SummerSlam - Exceeded the Hype
Review: Dudleys vs. La Resistance:
Okay match. Nice opener. 5/10

Undertaker vs. A-Train:
Good match if you expect power moves. Take it for what it's worth. 7/10

Shane McMahon vs. Eric Bischoff:
This match was entertaining. It had Steve Austin being "provoked", Coach getting his ass whooped, and a Shane-dive. 10/10

U.S. Title Match:
Great, fact-paced match. These men never fail to entertain. 8/10

Kurt Angle vs. Brock Lesnar:
My match of the year. It had suspense! Kurt kicked out of the F-5 and a chair shot! He also found at least 3 ways to reverse the F-5. Easily my favorite match. Also, Vince McMahon got Angle Slammed through a proned chair on his birthday. 10/10

RVD vs. Kane:
Okay. Kane messed up a spot. Nothing new. 5/10

Elimination Chamber:
This match was okay. The first elimination chamber was better. Triple H always finds a way to steal a victory. Pretty good. 7/10

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome PPV- - - -Here Comes The Money!!!!
Review: In my opinion this is a really awesome paperview. I ecspecially liked the Shane McMahon vs. Eric Bischoff match. That just might be because of the Shane O' Mac fan I am, but I do admit I loved seeing Eric loose. Nothing much against him but hey, I wanted Shane to win, and he did, so yaye!!!! The other matches were great also, and I just really enjoyed the ppv. I think it is defiantly worth the money.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Make PPV's More Entertaining!
Review: Let's see if any of the reviews changes some minds! HUH!
I'll get started by saying that most of these matches weren't
bad, but - until the Chamber Match (I turned it off)

1st - No Matt Hardy vs. Zach Gowan (he was badly injured)
(just something Matt Hardy can use against the kid -)

Fatal Four-Way U.S Championship - Fun, and Awesome! = 4 stars
Eddie Guerrero vs. Chris Benoit vs. Rhyno vs. Tajiri
(This was great because no one was on the same page, and
their were no alliances between Benoit/Rhyno or Eddie/Tajiri)
(Lots of great back n forth action, cool maneuvers and
tight quickness, just didn't want this one to end)*
- WAS A GREAT OPENER

World Tag-Team Championship = 3 stars
Dudley Boyz vs. La Resistance
(The Dudleyz totally should have won this, why can they not
block that stupid double move they use, it's so counterable)

No Disqualification Match = 1 star (at the least)
Shane vs. Bischoff
(Nothing really made this No Disqualification)
(And this so-called match, wasn't anything)

Undertaker vs. A-Train = 3 stars
(Great match, just like Taker vs. Cena at Vengeance)
(The Taker is just so amazing, especially with his back
against the wall, and forced to fend him off with an injury)

No-Holds Barred Match = 2 stars (not much GOOD, action)
Rob Van Dam vs. Kane
(Even with the stipulation, nothing really made a difference)
(Some ladder use, and a chair and the steel steps - that's all)
(Kind of a pre-empt to the big match at Unforgiven)

WWE Championship = 3.5 stars (not better than Wrestlemania)
Brock Lesnar vs. Kurt Angle
(With a twisted side to him, Brock's a muscle nutcase)
(Kurt never gave up hope, and finally made Brock - TAP)
(Great action though, kind of similar to Wrestlemania!)

AND NOW ON TO THE FAIRLY WORTHLESS - CHAMBER MATCH
Jericho vs. Triple H vs. Goldberg vs. Michaels vs. Nash vs. Orton
-Let me explain some key points!
-This was nothing, I repeat nothing like Survivor Series?
-Eliminations were almost all by Goldberg?
-Everyone was gone way too freaking quickly, and was short)
-Triple H cowering inside the secondary chamber - wussy!
-Nash is nothing special, neither was Michaels in this thing
-And I still can't believe Orton didn't even attempt to win
the damn title (Triple H has a sick noose on these guys)
-Plus Goldberg was totally floored after this ended, beaten
and totally bloodied, will someone arrest HHH for battery???
-You want to see something better, watch women fight...

(But the one-on-ones and fatal four-way are worth it)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good PPV......Not as good as past SummerSlams though
Review: The #1 PPV of the summer came to us from Pheonix Arizona for the 2003 event. This event was not near as good as the SummerSlams in the past but still a good showing on PPV, due in part mainly to the Smackdown matches on the card. The DVD comes with little in the way of extras which is a surprising turn-around from their usual jam packed DVDS.

WWE World Tag Team Titles La Resistance (c) vs Dudley Boyz
A really OK match with a predictable ending. Not the dynamite opening a top-notch PPV should have.

Undertaker vs A-train
Pretty good match considering who was in it. Basic match but caters to Undertaker's more slow paced, story-driven match style.

Rob Van Dam vs Kane
Not as good as it should have been given all the buildup and it being Kane's first PPV match after unmasking but still a passable match.

WWE US Title
Eddie Guerrero (c) vs Tajiri vs Rhyno vs Chris Benoit
Solid four way match. Hard to find a match that involves both Guerrero & Benoit that isn't solid.

Shane McMahon vs Eric Bischoff
Crowd interest helped this match as they were into it. Very surprising twist in this match that was shocking but actually kinda funny as well.

WWE Title
Kurt Angle (c) vs Brock Lesnar
GREAT match. Definite Match Of The Year canidate and the match that made this PPV. Angle has become the best overall wrestler of the post-attitude era and Brock may well challenge him for that title in years to come. Surprise ending but it worked well.

World Title

Elimination Chamber
Triple H (c) vs Goldberg vs Chris Jericho vs Shawn Michaels vs Randy Orton vs Kevin Nash
The Elimination Chamber match was fun to watch but in the end it was not the greatest way to end the PPV. The crowd was solidly behind Goldberg though. The ending makes sense in the long run but still should have not go on last.

Overall it's a decent show that a collector should pick up but if you're looking for tons of extras u might want to skip this.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: No Extras, No Thank You!
Review: World Wrestling Entertainment must be trying to cut corners with their fanbase. While they are still pumping in efforts on non-PPV releases, they've stopped placing extra features on the PPV DVD.

When you buy a pay-per-view on DVD, it has been like a scrapbook for the month in which the show occured. Some would go so far as to include a related match from a Raw or Smackdown! program on the disc. WrestleMania went even further, and therefore, their discs were always the best value. Some mediocre pay-per-views were loaded with so many extra features that it made the DVD worth purchasing.

But if Vengeance and now SummerSlam are any indication, then the "keepsake" value of these DVD's is no longer an interest to WWE. Hopefully, the fans/buyers will think twice about owning them until WWE puts more effort into these releases.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: WWE Summerslam 2003 DVD
Review: WWE has gotten much stronger with their pay per views, and this is a good example of it. It's always great to see Shane O' Mac on a card for a PPV. Lilian Garcia gives a great rendition of the national anthem before the PPV begins (her best performance aside from the Smackdown after 9/11). All of the matches were solid. Lesnar/Angle stole the show in my opinion. My only problem with this DVD is the lack of extras. I have bought dozens of WWE PPV's on DVD, and all of them have had some kind of extras except for the last two to come out on DVD (Vengeance and Summerslam). Other then that, it is a good PPV to own for wrestling and non-wrestling fans alike.

Summary: its called wrestling i think
Review: Reviewer: A viewer from England
Well its another PPV brought to you buy a company who likes to reiun decent wrestlers reputations and put fat arse wrestlers who no S.H.I.T about wrestling in the company instead for instance 1. 2. 3. AND NUMBER .5 MATCH THEY ARE THE PEOPLE WHO CANT WRESTLE AND EVERY MATCH THERE IN WILL ALWAYS BE THE SAME COS THEY NO NO DIFFERENT.Its sad to think people actually think there enjoyable to watch
Dudleys vs L.A. Resistance
Well theres no holds that isnt a head lock theres no pace no in ring pychology its just you hit me with a fake punch and likewise but the babyface always wins that sequence of moves ha. Match sucks and if you think this is good shame on you. *1/4, the 1/4 cos it was a good laugh and the * cos they did there best HA HA HA.

Undertaker vs A-Train
Prime example of what i was on about earlier to fat arse guys sluging it out wwf whoops so sue me i mean wwe style the usual crap from both men *

Shane McMahon vs Eric Bischoff
HA HA HA HA HA HA at least it was cool to see shane kill himself in the ring but he doesnt even do that in this match if he does die doing a stupid stunt one day i wont feel at all sorry for him cos its sad that companys like wwe czw and xpw need to do that sort of thing to get the crowd interested

Eddy Guerrero vs Tajiri vs Benoit vs Rhyno
Now this could have been so much better if rhyno was not invold cos he slows the pace of this match right down and makes three class wrestlers look bad ***

RVD vs Kane
The match had nothing to it kane bores the hell out of me and RVD does his normal rubbish and people who thought the matches he had with jerry lynn were classics is very sad there O.T.T spotfests that are all planed out before hand there matches that gives pro wrestling a bad name *1/2

Brock Lesnar vs Kurt Angle
Finally we get to these guys Brock still hasnt had that one match that sais he can do it all but Kurt defantly has its not as good as the WM19 match but it is still a nonstop action packed match that i thought should of had more mat wrestling thats what these guys should be known for doing like Benoit and Angle but it the best match of the night ***1/2

Elimnation chamber
Nash, Orton, HHH, HBK, Y2J, and Goldberg
I cant be bothered to exspress how much i hate this elimanation chamber thing the match was awful and the goldberg triple h thing is gonna be a laugh -***** its not even a match

Well after all that you might say well if i hate most of what WWE put on T.V i should just change the channel which ime starting to agrea with another badish PPV Thumbs kinda in the middle heading downward. And if i made any spelling mistakes that because it was rushed and i cant be bothered to spell check it
