Summary: Raw and Smackdown presents Backlash.
Review: 1st Team Angle vs Los Guerros:WWE Tag Team Titles
good opener but Los Guerros lost.7/10

2nd Rikishi vs Sean O Haire
nice to see Sean back in action, and nice to see Piper get what he deserves. 7/10

3rd Trish vs Jazz: Womens Title
I see this match on Raw to many times,its not PPV material. 5/10.

4th Kane/RVD vs Dudleyz:World Tag Team Titles
finally Bubba catches his head.Him and D-von 3d Chief Morley 8/10

5th Big Show vs Rey Mysterio
I thought this match was gonna be boring but it wasnt.Big Show thinks hes all bad picking on a little kid.7/10

6th Brock Lesnar vs John Cena:WWE Championship
the best out of Brock and Cena. 9/10

7th BookerT/HBK/Kevin Nash vs HHH/Y2J/Ric Flair
not the best match of the night but it was good, 7.5/10

8th Goldberg vs The Rock
finally these 2 icons go at it. The best match of the night,even though Goldberg and Rock's moves dont go together,the match kicked ass.

In my opinion this was the best Backlash ever.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Goldberg Returns!!
Review: 40-50 Horrible PPV
51-60 Decent PPV
61-70 Great PPV
71-80 Memorible PPV
81-up Classic PPV



Shelton Benjamin & Charlie Haas v. Los Guerreros WWE Tag Titles
This was a faced paced match that kicked off a face paced PPV. Haas & Benjamin retain by cheating to keep the gold. 8/10

Rikishi v. Sean O'Haire
This match was so slow. It seemed to drag on forever. O'Haire finally ends this thing. 2/10

Kane & RVD v. Dudley Boyz World Tag Titles
This match was just as good as the WWE tag titles. Kane & RVD dominate their way to victory. 8/10

Trish v. Jazz Women's Title
This match was bad because Trish won the title at Mania then drops it to Jazz next month. 4/10

Rey Mysterio v. Big Show
This match was one-sided. Show just absolutly dominated Rey the whole match. Show wins with a crazy chokeslam. 5/10

Brock Lesnar v. John Cena WWE Title
This was a hell of a match. Cena was the perfect guy to put in this position. Even though Brock retains in was still a great match. 9/10

Triple H, Ric Flair & Chris Jericho v. Shawn Michaels, Booker T & Kevin Nash
This match was very highly skilled wrestling. HHH wins it for his annoying team when he hits HHH with a sledgehammer to win. What is Y2J Rocks talking about that HHH got powerbombed through Bischoff's Desk. 8/10

The Rock v. Goldberg
This match was dominated by The Rock even though Goldberg won. Goldberg in his debut smashes the Rock to pieces. 5/10


This PPV scored a 49. It was horrible but almost decent.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Goldberg is BACK
Review: A Great ppv

Los Gurrerros vs. Team Angle - A good open. Got kinda boring in the middle but it had it's moments. 3/5

Rikishi vs. Sean O'haire - What kind of match is this. Not a ppv match. 2/5

RVD and Kane vs. The Dudley's - Great match everything went well RVD with some wicked moves. 5/5

Trish Stratus vs. Jazz - Not a very good match. way to short and no womens match will ever top the one at WrestleMania XIX. 2/5

Big Show vs. Rey Mysterio - Okay match. Mostly Big Show tossing Rey Mysterio around like a rag dog. 3/5

Brock Lesnar vs. Jon Cena - Great match. fast paced. Cena showed that he can be a main event playa. 5/5

Booker T, HBK, Kevin Nash vs. HHH, Ric Flair and Chris Jericho - Great match again except for the ending. If Booker T or Shawn Michaels are in a match you can count on it being a good one. 5/5

Goldberg vs. The Rock - Greatest match ever. Goldberg proved he can do the Rock Bottom better than the Rock. Goldberg didn't stay down he kept on fightin back and proved who the better man was. 5/5

Total: 30/40
The score seems low but buy it for Rock vs. Goldberg, 6 Man tag, Brock vs. Cena, and World Tag team titles.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: goldberg is back and the rock is out !
Review: After an excellent wrestlemania 19 ,all the superstars are back in this good ppv with a lot of middle card wrestlers and 2 main events with the goldberg and rock match ,and the tag confrontation between hhh,y2j,flair and hbk,diesel,booker T.
It was an honorable show with some superstars missing (edge,angle,austin...)'cause injuries;but the show was intense with team angle,the title shot with cena and the kane/RVD spectacular alliance.What else? An entertaining backstage show with torrie,stacy and sable.I watched the ppv live and it was ,i tell you, better than the royal rumble and no way out;so the second best ppv of the year according to me.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Very Average ppv
Review: Backlash 2003 was average. The Rock vs. Goldberg was a huge let down. The 6-man tag match was okay.Sean o Haire vs. Rikishi was absoluetly horrible. The only match that I really enjoyed was Brock Lesnar vs. John Cena. It was truly a great back and forth match with lots of action. Overall I think you should buy Backlash 2003 if you want to see a great match between John Cena and Brock Lesnar. Other than thought I do not recommend Backlash 2003.

Review: BACKLASH 2003

Torrie, Stacy brawl backstage
Torrie Wilson tried to get Test to stop calling her, but instead, he kissed her full on the lips! Sable spied the whole thing and told Stacy, who got into an ugly backstage altercation with Torrie! Scott Steiner tried to help Stacy after she took a nasty blow to the head, but a jealous Test put a stop to that.

Team Angle def. Los Guerreros
Shelton Benjamin trapped Chavo Guerrero's leg while Charlie Haas applied the pin. Afterward, the defiant Guerreros stole the titles and raced out of the arena!

Sean O'Haire def. Rikishi
Rikishi managed to get some payback for himself and Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka by smashing a coconut over Rowdy Roddy Piper's head!

World Tag Titles:

Summary: Backlash really wasn't that bad
Review: Everyone says this ppv was absolutely awful, but I thought it was pretty good. Most of the matches were entertaining and the three main events were fresh rivalries. The undercard features the WWE Tag-Team titles on the line with Team Angle and Los Guerreros(a decent opener, but nothing we haven't seen before), Rikishi going one on one with Sean O'Haire w/Roddy Piper(definitely the worst match of the show and did not belong on ppv), a World Tag-Team title match between the champs Kane and Rob Van Dam and the Dudleyz(Chief Morley as the guest referee added a lot to this match which was one of the night's best), a Women's title match with Trish defending against Jazz(a usual women's match), and Big Show against Rey Mysterio(what happens after the match is better than the match itself). The three main events were all pretty good, the best being the WWE Title match between Brock Lesnar and John Cena. Cena delivers in his first big time match and Lesnar puts on one hell of a performance as well. The six-man tag-team match was my personal favorite of the night. Kevin Nash, Shawn Michaels and Booker T team up to battle Triple H, Ric Flair and Chris Jericho. Everyone has good ringtime in this match, and it turns out to be a pretty good match. Triple H adds fuel to the fire in his rivalry with Nash at the end of the battle. The last main event was a supposed dream match between The Rock and Goldberg. Of the three main events this was the worst, and I do not think it should have gone on last. There are some pretty entertaining moments from the Rock in this match though. Didn't feel like a ppv main event
however. The six-man should have been for the World Heavyweight title and gone on last. The extras on this DVD aren't bad. The Rock after Backlash is the best. I think it is worth the money to buy, but it depends on your taste in wrestling.
