Customer Reviews

a great event
Survivor series 2003 was one of the better events of 2003,and that wasnt a bad year for the WWE from what i seen,the event had matches that created genuine interest and the hype was high and lived up to the standards set for itself more or less.
The event started with a match of great promise and did not dwindle in any way,no moments were wasted,team angle went up against team lesnar,we all know that in traditional survivor series matches that the athletes get pinned all to easy at times,an elbow to face,oops,fall ,pin,what the?but here the match was given time to breathe and with the exception of A-Train who was pinned too easy all the athletes had to earn their wins ,a good match.
next up was ladies championship match ,the holder molly holly went up against lita in what was a decent match,did i really say that,yes i did ,it was ok and they worked well together so there you have it.
we then have the ambulance match between shane mcmahon and kane and while this match has the same ideas that make up a last man standing match,street fight match,the winner would be announced once you had your rival on stretcher and whipped inside the ambulance.The match was brutal enough and shane showcased yet again that he can do so much in terms of risk,he can do the coast to coast better than anyone and he gave kane a good match,the odd moment was wasted but some great stuff happened to make for a good match.
Next up was a tag team title match,the champs the basham brothers went up against los guerroros in a match that wouldnt melt butter from five paces but that is mainly because the bashams on this night at least,although many hated them,didnt work hard enough,los guerreros were a great team but they felt the weight of their rivals terrible performance.
A traditional survivor series match followed,it was team austin,stonecold didnt wrestle,he was just the manager against team bischoff,eric was a manager also,if team austin lost then austins wwe career was over,austin picked a good team as did eric and the match was packed with venom and great moves and a terrific pace,this was the match that really showcased the talents of randy orton in my opinion and what a performance by shawn michaels as well although he was past the stage of proving anything to anyone,this was an epic match that again ignored the age old problem of easy pins to shorthen the match time,all in all a great match,great.
A buried alive match followed and again this was a brilliant match,we had the undertaker going up against the head of the company vincent kennedy mcmahon in a savage match,the amount of blood lost by mcmahon is hard to ignore,the taker was in control and enjoying himself and then a shock that changed everything,a brutal match that had alot going for it.
The main event was solid enough but didnt blow my hair back,the champ goldberg going up against triple h,goldberg has something fearful about him but he and triple h didnt gel that well together but the ending was superb so they had something i guess,but all in all this was a great event,well done to all concerned.

ONE OF THE BEST PPV'S OF THE YEAR
Along with Vengeance and Wrestlemania was one of the best PPV's of the year.

*Spoilers*

1.Smackdown's Ten Man Elimination tag match- Team Angle (Kurt Angle, Chris Benoit, Hardcore Holly, Bradshaw, and John Cena) vs. Team Lesnar (Brock Lesnar, Big Show, Nathan Jones, Matt Morgan, and A-Train.) Hardcore Holly brawled with Lesnar whipping him into the steel steps. Referee Brian Hebner went to split it up, but Hardcore knocked Hebner down getting himself disqualified. Holly Eliminated.

Holly, Bradshaw, Angle, A-Train, and Nathan Jones were hardly in the match at all. Holly's elimination made no sense since the match hadn't started so hes was allowed to do what ever he wants. 7.5/10

2.Molly Holly vs. Lita- Molly controls match for the most part. Hits the Molly Go Round from the top rope for a near fall. Lita goes for the moonsault but Molly rolls out of the way.

Kane eventually won it with tombstone loading Shane into the Ambulance. WINNER: KANE Kane just wasn't the type of person for this match. Matt Hardy, and RVD would have made much better opponents. It's been just a few months hes been gone and I already miss Shane. 5/10

4.Basham Brothers vs. Los Guererros- Eddie Guererro and Danny Basham start out. I don't remember much about this match, but Chavo got a hot tag, knocked down both Bashams, back body drop on Doug, Danny Irish Wipped Chavo off the ropes, they were going for a double team manuever but jumped over Danny and dropkicked Doug, double clothesline had both men down.

Winners: The Basham Brothers Solid match. 6.5/10.

Decent match. Not as good as their match at Vengeance. 5.5/10

Overall good PPV.

One of the best Survivor Series to Date
SmackDown Survivor Series Match
Team Angle (Kurt Angle, John Cena, Chris Benoit, Bradshaw, and Hardcore Holly) vs Team Lesnar (Brock Lesnar, The Big Show, Nathan Jones, Matt Morgan, and A-Train) 8/10
A nice rap from Cena at the beginning but the match was short but it was quite enjoyable to watch non the less

Women's Title Match
Molly Holly vs Lita 3/10
Another women's match that you can see on nearly every episode of Raw

Ambulance RAW Match
Kane vs Shane McMahon 7/10
Not as good as their last man standing match two months ago but it did have some extreme spots but it was over very quickly

WWE Tag Team Title Match
The Basham Brothers vs Los Guerreros 5/10
A tag match that wasn't good but it wasn't bad

RAW Survivor Series Match: If Team Bischoff wins Austin is fired from the WWE, if Team Austin wins Austin gets to raise as much hell as he wants
Team Bischoff (Scott Steiner, Christian, Chris Jericho, Mark Henry, and Randy Orton) vs Team Austin (Booker T., Buh-Buh Ray Dudley, D-Von Dudley, Rob Van Dam, and Shawn Michaels) 10/10
This match is defiantly match of the night and should have been the main event HBK is superb and the ending is sad and memorable as well

Buried Alive SmackDown Match
Vince McMahon vs The Undertaker 6/10
This is SmackDown's bold attempt at their main event but doesn't come off very well but the ending was a surprise and it does set the path for WrestleMania 20 very nicely

World Heavyweight Title Match
Goldberg vs Triple H 7/10
Could have been a lot better but I think Triple H and Goldberg matches are getting a little too boring

With some excellent tag team elimination matches and some career ending matches Survivor Series is a card I think everyone will remember in the years to come
