Summary: VENGEANCE Delivered as promised
Review: Guerro vs Benoit-Okay match but all of the wrestling holds got a bit boring and wrestless.The ending was alot better with Guerro lying and cheating again by using the championship belt.Eddie Guerro wins the U.S title with the frog splash.Slow paced at the beginning but very good at the end GREAT MATCH!!!
Time-24 mins 9/10

Billy Gunn vs Noble-Im impressed that Noble still won with his Girlfriend,Billys Girlfriend and Billy Gunn all against him.Noble gets a night with Torrie Wilson.The lead up was entertaining but this match was to short.Time-3 mins 6/10

Steph vs Sable-Not really a wrestling match but a great cat fight between two hot chicks.Stephanie gets screwed by the A Train clotheslining her and Sable getting the pin fall.Stephanie deserved to win.BAD LUCK STEPH 6/10

WGTT vs Mysterio/Kidman-What can I say,Breathtaking match.The action was fast and furious and the moves were great.Four entertaining athletes in the same ring=Brilliant match.I thought Mysterio and Kidman were going to win but WGTT retained the tag team gold. time=15 mins-good lengh 10/10

McMahon vs Zach Gowen-Who thought a one legged boy and an old retired man could put on such a fight.The match was bloody but Zach just wouldnt give up.Missing the split legged moon sault was the end for Gowen.Stunning match!!! Time-17 mins 8/10

Cena vs Undertaker-Another wonderful match between a veteran and a young studd.Cena is always entertaining and Taker always puts up a good fight.In the end Cena's show boating cost him the match.Taker winning with the last ride.Time-15 mins 9/10

Angle vs Lesnar vs Big Show-Tie for best of the night with the WWE tag team match up.All three men wrestled very well and there were good exchanges between Lesnar and Kurt Angle.Loved it when Show went through the announce table best part of the match.Angle completes his comeback by winning the WWE title after hitting Lesnar with the Angle slam Time-17 mins 10/10

Vengeance was the third best PPV of 2003 in my veiw behind WM 19 and Unforgiven.It had everything High flying moves,Great rivalries and Exellent matches.

Summary: Did I miss something?
Review: I'm not sure if this was some sort of mistake, but why did WWE leave everything off of this DVD?

There are ZERO extras, which is weird because if you think about it, they had two months worth of build-up before this event. If you remember, Smackdown! didn't have a PPV after Judgement Day. So one would think some extras would have the U.S. Title Tournament highlights and the Confidential story on Zack Gowen. But nope. None. Zero. Nothing.

And for some reason, the UPC code isn't anywhere to be found. So if you were collecting all of the PPV DVD's of this year trying to get that box-set cover...guess what? You won't be able to get it without the UPC.

It's a shame WWE had to ruin this PPV with an awful DVD. But for some reason, I think they will re-release the DVD when they notice something went wrong.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The best PPV in 2003
Review: In what has been a down year in the WWE, this was the best PPV of the year, IMO.

This was of course the first Smackdown PPV. The build up for the matches was subpar at best, with only the Vince/Gowen match being the strongest, one I could of gave a damn about. The PPV also followed Raw's "Bad Blood", which was close to being godawful. I gave it a chance, and afterwards was quite suprised.

Match by Match

Benoit vs. Guerrero (****)
Solid opening match, marred by Rhyno's anticipated turn on Benoit. Right person went over, finish should have been clean.

Noble vs. Gunn (**)
Never intrested in anything Gunn is involved in, but this was quite entertaining. Better for SD telecast instead of a PPV!

Bar Room Brawl
Was quite entertaining if anything else.

Haas & Benjiman vs. Misterio & Kidman (****)
Slow start, but match flowed nicely with a clean finish and the right team going over. Haas & Benjiman really gelled as a team in 2K3.

Undertaker vs. Cena (***1/2)
Taker was in rare form here, which really helped. Cena was money from the get go, rap promo was nasty as hell. Finish was dubbed from Taker's match with Triple H from WM X-7 in 2001.

Sable vs. Stephanie (-***)
Bore fest, awful, and Albert. Trish/Victoria this wasn't!

Vince vs. Zach Gowen (*)
Effort from Zach was there, on Smackdown this would be great TV and I would have been nicer. However on a PPV, I'm not intrested in watching a handicap carry a roided, stiff, crippled owner for an excess of 20 plus minutes, where you could of teamed Matt Hardy & Rhyno up to face Tajiri & say Sean O'Haire. Same could be said for the Sable/Steph match, but there at least you have a segment of the audience happy to see two hot chicks roll around for 3-5 minutes, where he we have a match majority never cared about, but jammed down are throats, and the payoff was lackluster at best.

Angle vs. Lesner vs. Show (****)
Solid match and the fact it was mainly Lesner and Angle, with little Show made it a quality match.

This PPV broke a string of mediocre PPV, but SummerSlam picked up where Bad Blood left off sadly. This should be a blue print though, on how you balance wrestling and sports entertainment.

Summary: Smackdown shines with first ever Pay Per View
Review: July 27,2003 WWE Smackdown! has it's first ever ppv and man it was the best

Match #1
Eddie Guerrero VS Chris Benoit U.S. Championship finals

This match was not that good but it was a great way to kick off the show. A few blown spots to name one when chris moved out of the way from eddie's frog splash. Funny when eddie hit chris with the belt when the reffre was knocked down and eddie layed down. Eddie wins with the frog splash and is the new United States Heavywheight champion. *** Stars

Match #2 Indecent Proposal
Jamie Noble VS Billy Gun

I loved what torrie was wearing Billy Kidman is a lucky man. Match starts quick when billy hit's his move with a swinging rock bottom type of manuever. Finish is gunn almost knocks torrie off the apron and noble rolls up billy for the 1 2 3 with pulling the tightsso jamie get's to " sleep" with torrie on Smackdown! *Star

Match #3
WWE Tag Team Championship Match
The World's Greatest Tag Team VS Rey Mysterio & Billy Kidman

This was the first match that stole the show hass get's the pin after kidman accidently ran into the ref and benjamin hit kidman with the chair while hass took care of mysterio. **** Stars

Match #4
APA Invitaional Barroom Brawl

Not an important match anyway, Bradshaw won when he hit funaki with the bar stool. *star

Match #5 Old School VS New School
The Undertaker VS John Cena

Great to see taker back after a few weeks out for tending to his father. Taker was bleeding from the mouth after cena threw him into the security wall. Taker won with the last ride. ***** Stars

Match #5
Stephanie McMahon VS Sable
Man sable maybe 35 but she is still hot and so is steph. Sable won when the ref was down and A-Train ran into steph. ** Stars

Match #6
Mr. McMahon VS Zach Gowen

The second match that stole the show this matche saved the show.
McMahon won when gowen missed a moonsault off the top and vince got the 1 2 3. After the match the crowd gave gowen a standing ovation. ***** Stars

Match #7
WWE Championship Triple Threat
Brock Lesnar(c)VS Big Show VS Kurt Angle

Awesome main even for the gold. Brock and angle suplexed the big show through the spanish announce table (poor guys). Angle won when he angle slammed show and brock. **** Stars

All in all a very good ppv for the smackdown crew.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Vengeance In My Opinion
Review: just note that i was at the actual payperview and when you're at the actual event it usually makes you think that the things better than video evidence might show.

Guerrero VS Benoit- Starts out slow and boring as hell but got faster as it went on. The end is funny with Guerrero. The ref gets knocked down a couple times in this one.

Noble VS Billy Gunn- Good match, I don't remember much about it except everyone slapping and kissing everyone at the end. I'm hoping Noble and Gunn are a tag team now cuz Billy Gunn will never be a good singles wrestler.

APA Barroom Brawl- This one was hard to see from my seat but what I saw on the titantron was good. It's basically just mindless everyone hitting everyone with random stuff the whole match. Alot like the hardcore championship matches in 2000 where they just went all over the arena hitting eachother with stuff that wouldnt even hurt. I happen to be a big fan of this stuff. Hilarious when the Easter Bunny gets thrown through that window/panel thing.

Worlds...Tag Team VS Billy Kidman and Rey Mysterio
Possibly best match of the night. Kidman does a shooting star press off the top rope to the floor which is awesome and Mysterio pulls out all the crazy moves he does on a nightly basis. It was predictable but the match was still awesome.

Sable VS Stephanie
Why does Sable's clothes get ripped off on Smackdown and it only gets censored by two little lines but then on a PAYPERVIEW shes completely covered? The only person whose shirt gets ripped off in this match is the refs. As far as the actual wrestling goes in the match its about par for a womens match these days (not that anyone cares about that anyways.)

Gowen VS Mcmahon
Zach just gets beat up the whole time basically. He only does about 6 different moves the whole matchs but their still fun to watch considering he only has one leg. This match is really awesome. The angle leading up to it was way overdone and probably got more TV time than the main event did but the actual wrestling ripped.

Undertaker VS Cena
Good match, not very fast but the moves they do hurt a lot or atleast look painful I wouldnt really know. Why did Taker have a yellow and orange motorcycle?

Brock Lesner VS Big Show VS Kurt Angle
Sweet main event. If you look at the Smackdown main events for every payperview since Survivor Series 2002 you'll see that two of these guys are almost always fighting eachother. This couldve easily been a Summer Slam match or Wrestlemania if the timing was right. It was basically the culmination of their feud. The wrestling was awesome too. When I was watching it I couldnt believe when it was over, it felt like that match had just started, Apparently it was like half an hour though. Time just went by fast for me when i was watchin this one. And a title change too which is always cool. They would never let the title change hands on RAW for a payperview as small as Vengeance. Come to think of it, is RAW EVVVVVVVEEEERRRR going to drop the belt to someone new?

I'd say overall this is a really awesome one and I'm buying the DVD the day it comes out. I suggest you do too. I'd say anyone can enjoy atleast something in this payperview. Its really spread out. Its got a little type of wrestling for all preferences.
