Summary: OOOOOO...AHHHHH....WTF?
Review: This was the first WWE PPV that I ever ordered b/c it was a darn good one. I would just like to say before I get to individual matches that most of these matches ran short and with only 7 matches on the card, they could of gone longer.

Dudley Boys vs. La Resistance- World Tag Title- 3/5
This match had tthe DUdleys kicking butt until that cameraman's screwjob on the Dudley's costing them the title and La Resistance retains yet again.

Undertaker vs. A-Train w/Sable- 4.5/5
Taker and Train showed a great match with a lot of finishers that had Taker win in the end. It was funny at the end of this match when Stephanie came up and beat the hell out of Sable.

Eric Bishcoff vs. Shane McMahon- No DQ/ Falls Count Anywhere- 3.75/5
I Feel bad for the Spanish announcers, it seems that at every PPV, Someone goes through their Table. Well it was Eric this time in a match that was only funny but a good match as well and the bits with the Coach and Austin was good too.

Eddie vs. Tajiri vs. Ryno vs. Chris Benoit- US Title- Fatal Fourway- 4/5
Well I thought that this math would steal the show. Well it didnt live up to its expectations, but it was still a short but sweet match. I loved it whenthey had 2 submissions going on at the same time. A lot of finishers but a little short.

Kurt Angle vs. Brock Lesnar- WWE Title- 5/5
This match stole the show. It was the longest match (22 mins) and had me on my seat the whole time. It ended with an almost 1 minute ankle lock that had Lesnar submit. And after the match Angle put Vince through a chair.

Kane vs. RVD- No Holds Barred- 5/5
Chairs, ladders, steps, and the fan barricade were all used in this great match. Definately this show's dark horse. RVD's high-flying manuevers and Kane's Power along with the weapons made this match amazing.

Randy Orton vs. Kevin Nash vs. HHH vs. Goldberg vs. Y2J vs. HBK- World Heavyweight Tile- Elimination Chamber- 5/5
First things first- It was cool to see HBK and Jericho start this match off, then came Orton, Nash, HHH (not really), then Micheals gave his buddy Nash some sweet Chin Music and eliminate him, then came GOLDBERG! He eliminated Orton, then speared Y2J through the plexiglass to eliminate him, the eliminated HBK. Trips was then still in his chamber with Flair making sure the door didnt open. Then Goldberg barged through the glass and strted to beat up HHH and then Flair slipped HHH a sledge Hammer and gave it to Goldberg, Goldberg was eliminated, and then got beat almost to death by evolution. This match was great but had a bad ending and was not as great as the first EC match.

Well get this DVD- this event was almost as good as WMXIX, the best non WM in the past 2 years. Definiatly get it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Here's the REAL deal
Review: Don't pay attention to those bozos above. Here's the real SummerSlam 2003 pay-per-view card that was broadcasted live from Phoenix, Arizona at the American West Arena on August 24, 2003.

-----

Tag Title Match: La Resistance def. The Dudley Boyz

The Undertaker def. A-Train w/ Sable
(Stephanie McMahon got into the action against Sable near the end of the match. A-Train pulled Sable outta harm's way, though.)

Shane McMahon def. Eric Bischoff
(Bischoff got help from Coach while Shane recieved some from Stone Cold. Great match.)

US Title Match: Eddie Guerrero def. Chris Benoit, Tajiri, Rhyno

WWE Heavyweight Title Match: Kurt Angle def. Brock Lesnar
(Angle made Lesnar submit via the ankle lock. Fantastic brawl.)

Kane def. Rob Van Dam
(Kane tombstoned RVD right into some steel steps to pull the win. RVD pulled some amazing acrobatic moves against the Big Red Machine.)

Elimination Chamber World Heavyweight Title Match: Triple H def. Goldberg, Chris Jericho, Shawn Michaels, Randy Orton, Kevin Nash
(Probably the most exciting matchup of the night. Triple H [stole] Goldberg out of the title after nailing him with a sledgehammer. HHH, Randy Orton, and Ric Flair proceeded to massacre Goldberg after the match)

-----

I was lucky enough to see this event live last night and I'll definetly be picking up the DVD.

Long live Mattitude.

Summary: WWE Summerslam 2003
Review: As a member of Amazon.com, I am obviously the first person to write a REAL review on this video! Currently, the other four reviews concerning this video are false, since Summerslam didn't even take place until last night (Sunday, August 24).
So, as a true member, I will write a serious review on WWE Summerslam 2003.
Summerslam 2003 was a good PPV. It wasn't perfect. It had a lot of flaws and disappointments. Here's a list of the matches with a star rating for each:

WWE Tag Team Championship
La Resistance vs. Dudley Boyz - these stupid anti-American tag teams are in bad taste! I understand the fact that wrestling need good guys & bad guys, but patriotic tag teams like La Resistance is not just bad, but it's not even necessary as far as entertainment goes. The Dudleys dominate most of the match, then get cheated & lose the match due to outside interference. A terrible way to start out a big PPV like Summerslam. **

The Undertaker vs. A-Train - this match was a little bit better, with two big heavyweights battling it out. Not bad for a big man match, as both men put forth quite an effort. Still, nothing new here. **1/2

Eric Bischoff vs. Shane McMahon - this so-called "match" wasn't much of a match at all. There was a lot of mic work done throughout the match. However, it was quite interesting. Announcer Jonathan Coachman makes a surprise heel turn when he interferes in the matchup on Eric's behalf! S. C. Steve Austin comes down and also gets involved in the situation. This was great entertainment! ***

Fatal-Fourway match
Rhyno vs. Tajiri vs. Eddie Geurerro vs. Chris Benoit - this was a very good matchup. A lot of athleticism and talent involved here. I wish it could've been longer. But it was still enjoyable nonetheless. ***3/4

WWE Smackdown Championship match
Kurt Angle vs. Brock Lesnar - this was easily the best d@mn match on the card. Lots of great countering, athleticism, and moves are displayed in this awesome bout. The match drags on a little bit and doesn't carry the same flow as their match at Wrestlemania 19. Still, a ton of effort from both competitors makes this match very good! ****

No-Holds-Barred match
Kane vs. Rob Van Dam - this was probably the 3rd best match on the card. Kane actually had a pretty good matchup with RVD. Don't expect a bunch of BIG bumps or anything. Just an average bloodless brawl between two fierce guys. Rob Van Dam sold his character quite well. Weapons such as a ladder, a chair, and the ring steps were used. Enjoyable, but not a classic. ***1/4

Elimination Chamber match for the WWE Raw Championship
Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels vs. Kevin Nash vs. Chris Jericho vs. Randy Orton vs. Goldberg - this match had a lot of hype going into it. Unfortunately, the match just didn't quite live up to it's hype like it should have. Last year's Elimination Chamber at Survivor Series was off the page, and possibly the greatest 6-man matchup ever! But this Elimination Chamber match just didn't have the magic that last year's did. Chris Jericho & Shawn Micheals started the match off very well, and showed a lot of great athleticism. Triple H and Goldberg didn't get involved until the very end! This match only lasted 20 minutes long! That's a dirty shame, since last year's lasted 40 minutes! I hate Triple H, who should be called Cripple H! His legs can't work worth a d@mn anymore and he refuses to put anyone over for his freakin' World Heavyweight title. And of course, Cripple H somehow beats Golderg at the end and retains his belt. Wow! Yet another stupid let down! Sure, this match had it's moments, but it lacked in originality to the first one at Survivor Series. Still, the match was watchable, just not as athletic and exciting as it could have been. ***2/3

Summary: A let-down event
Review: This Slummerslam is held at Phoenix,AZ on Aug 24.2003.I was there.
In short, it is a let down event.

1. La Resistance def. the Dudley Boyz (2/5) for Tag Team Championship
It is a very common match and should not be put on PPV.

2. Undertaker VS A-Train (2/5)

No any surprise. Would be better if Sable really got chokeslam

3. Shane Mcmahon VS. Eric Biscoff(3.5/5)

A decent match
Big move by shane and suprised to see the interference of coach.
It is pretty exciting SCSA come out When audiences are chanting his name.

4. FATAL FOURWAY for U.S. Championship
Eddie Guerrero VS.Rhyno VS. Tarjiri VS.Benoit (3.5/5)

Good match.Fast pace and nice move by Eddie and Rhyno.

5. Kurt Angel VS. Brock Lesnar WWE Championship(3/5)
Something like that match on Wrestlemania but not that good.
No big move like shooting star but glad to see Mr.Mcmahon got angelslam to steel
chair on his birthday.

6. Kane VS. RVD (3/5)
Just a so so match. Ends too soon but nice chair move by RVD.

7. Elimination Chamber for World Heavyweigth Champitonship (3/5)

A let down match.
Goldberg is pretty cool and Y2J is totally destroyed. But kind of boring
seeing Spear/Jack Hammer over and over again.
Triple H hid in the Chabmer for most of time.
Most anticipated fight between H and Goldberg really [stinks].

Total: 3/5

Summary: Don't read those other jack-offs
Review: Okay, first of all, the first four "reviews" (by [un]P, A viewer (from Michigan), mattitude, and A viewer (from Somerset) were written before the event even took place, so don't bother reading them. They are apparently suffering from some form of mental retardation, so look only to this review and others written after it for accurate information.

1. World Tag Team Champions La Resistance def. The Dudley Boyz when their new found friend (Rob Conway, may compete under a new name) interfered.

Okay opener, with pretty good crowd heat.

2. Undertaker def. A-Train.

What one would expect from these two. Taker wins after a chokeslam. Sable tries to distract Taker, who holds her in place for an attack by the returning Stephanie McMahon.

3. Shane McMahon def. Eric Bischoff. Bisch is a good character, but he should not be wrestling. Shane wins with help from Steve Austin after Jonathan Coachman turns heel and attacks Shane. Shane hits Eric with an elbowdrop through the Spanish announce table.

4. WWE United States Champion Eddie Guerrero def. Chris Benoit, Tajiri, and Rhyno. Guerrero wins after Benoit/Tajiri fall to the outside, Guerrero saves himself from a gore by using the title belt, and hit Rhyno with a Frog Splash for the pin. Good match, but it fell way below my expectations.

5. WWE Champion Kurt Angle def. Brock Lesnar Angle gets Lesnar to tap after surviving interference from Vince McMahon, and locking Lesnar in the ankle lock for an extended period of time. Good match, I liked it more than the WrestleMania contest.

6. Kane def. RVD Kane wins clean with a Tombstone on the steps. They tried to tell a good story (RVD throwing everything he can at Kane, who survives), but the match was a bit sloppy (the highlight being Kane's slipping off the top rope).

7. World Heavyweight Champion Triple H def. Goldberg, Randy Orton, Chris Jericho, Kevin Nash, and Shawn Michaels in an Elimination Chamber match. Another okay match, which featured Nash going out in less than 2 minutes, Goldberg destroying everyone and HHH not doing a thing until the finish, which saw him counter a spear with a Sledgehammer shot for the pin. Smarks may not like it, but I enjoyed the psychology of HHH not wanting a part of the match, only getting in two moves, but escaping with his title (plus I hate Goldberg). Look for Goldberg to win the title at Unforgiven though.

In closing, a solid, but not great PPV...

Summary: Summer Slam 2003 DVD
Review: I am not going to write a review on the DVD for Summer Slam 03, because it has not been released as of yet. Having said that I have no clue what four reviewers are talking about I watched Summer Slam and I saw none of these matches with the exception of Kane vs. RVD. The dates of reviews are as follows. August 7, 2003, August 5, 2003, July 31, 2003, and July 7, 2003. The PPV it's self was 24 Aug 03, so what are they talking about. Just people that want to be the first to review.

The matches are as follows

World Tag Team Championship
The Dudley vs. La Resistance
Give the win to La Resistance with help from outside interference.
One of the Frenchies pins D-Von

Undertaker vs. A-Train
Undertaker took the win, and Steph took some of Sable (Give the assist to Taker.)

US Championship Fatal 4 Way
Eddie vs. Tajiri vs. Benoit vs. Rhyno
Eddie wins this one in a convincing manner by pinning Rhyno.

Shane O Mac vs. Eric Bischoff
By far the most entertaining match of the night, with great twists.
Shane snags this win from the jaws of defeat.
Coach comes out, interferes on the behalf of The Bisch, Eric makes the match no DQ falls count anywhere. Coach and Eric double team Shane, Shane mounts a comeback, and Stone Cold comes down and gets in the face of Coach. Coach reminds Austin that he cannot lay a hand on him unless he is physical provoked. Coach went on to say that he was not going to physical provoke Austin, and he said that he and Eric did not appreciate' Before he could go on Shane pushed Coach into Austin, this was considered a physical provocation and warranted and whoopen to be bestowed onto Coach by Austin. After Austin dispensed of Coach, he went to leave, but Shane stopped him and dragged a knocked out Bischoff to Austin. Shane than took Eric's hand and slapped Austin across the face. This again was considered a physical provocation and again a world-class whoopen as only Austin can give was called for. Austin Stunned Eric right out of his boots. Rather than taking the easy pin-fall, Shane placed Eric on the Spanish Announce Table, Shane than ascended to the top rope and drove his elbow into Eric's chest (Shades of Summer Slam 99 vs. Test) he than covered Eric through the rubble (falls count anywhere) 1-2-3.

Matt Hardy vs. Zack Gowin
Match did not happen. It was announced on Sunday Night Heat that Zack's leg, in two places, was broken by the attack by Brock on SMACKDOWN! Hardy insisted on being declared the winner via forfeit and was.

WWE Undisputed Championship
Angle vs. Brock
Angle wins via tap out by Brock.

Kane vs. RVD
Kane destroyed RVD.

Elimination Chamber for the World, I mean the RAW Championship
HHH vs. HBK vs. Y2J vs. Orton vs. Nash vs. Goldberg
HHH wins; big shocker, HHH can't wrestle out of a wet paper bag, but always seems to win.
HBK and Y2J start it out; Orton comes in, than Nash. Nash cleans house, Nash pins Orton. HBK and Nash turn on each other early, with the help of sweet chin music, Y2J pins Nash. Goldberg comes out than HHH, HHH however like the champ he is stays in his inner-chamber Goldberg pins Y2J than HBK. He than kicks through HHH's chamber beats the tar out of him, he goes of a spear, however Flair slides the sledgehammer in and Goldberg spears that instead. HHH pins Goldberg. Come on, can HHH win fair anymore, give me a break.

That is the matches and results, see how much it differs from what ever the others wrote. This was written after the PPV and is the seven matches that happened.

It gets 4 Stars because of the disappointing Undisputed and RAW Championship matches, but was saved by the Shane O Mac vs. Bischoff match.

Rating: 5 stars
