Sorry for the re-upload! KZbin decided to demonetise the last one, obviously.

[@Kaseyph]

I was so confused lmao

[@bradhourigan7620]

I was wondering why this was gone

[@nbr6116]

Because of the "Piss on the Corpse" bit? That one has been edited

[@SheriffOutlaw]

I was super confused by that, but glad it was cleared away

Every wrestler to have appeared in a 2003 PPV main event in case anyone cares: HHH - 6 Goldberg - 5 Brock Lesnar - 4 Kevin Nash - 3 Big Show - 2 Kurt Angle - 2 The Rock - 2 Chris Jericho - 1 Hulk Hogan - 1 Kane - 1 Randy Orton - 1 Shawn Michaels - 1 Undertaker - 1

Vengeance 03 is a very underrated ppv. It literally had something for everyone from top to bottom on that card.

I'm sorry Survivor Series is easily Top 3

Wrestlemania 19 best ppv of the WWE in 2003 by A MILE! Arguably greatest Wrestlemania and ppv EVER!

Randy Orton a Main Eventer. In 2003. In the same List as Taker,Nash,Hubter andere Angle. Sure.

This year was amazing! The Attitude Era was the biggest years for wrestling, then for late 98 - late 21, it kind of fizzled out for awhile, even tho they literally had THE WORLD IN THEIR HANDS. But 2002 till early 05 was a rejuvenated product. They grasped at straws until something clicked, and that was;...."RUTHLISSS. AGGRESSHUN" The Ruthless Aggression era wasnt as great as the Attitude Era, but it's definitely a close second in terms of entertainment. The sheer amount of talent they had on the roster was amazing. Jericho, edge, eddie Guerrero, kurt angle, benoit, christian, brock lesnar, undertaker, kane, shawn michaels, triple h, Ric flair, goldberg, John cena, batista, rey mysterio, the hardy boys, dudley boys, randy orton, the rock, stone cold Steve austin, hulk hogan, booker t, etc. I can literally keep going. The roster was STACKED.

[@Herbert_Rudolf]

Would love to watch wwe in that time period

[@optimus2008]

The difference between the stacked roster of 2003 and the one they had before Vince went all releases is that those men seemed passionate and brought sports entertainment to the table. Today is just full of indie stars. Not like I think Styles or Nakamura are b****es, but their kind of wrestling was exactly what wasn't there in the must-see WWE. They steal nicknames and try to hype up crowds when The Rock can hype up a crowd when he's simply landing an elbow on someone.

[@thedoctor8]

I was 11 in 2003 and watching this year of WWE I preferred Raw to Smackdown. All these years later, I see what I was missing on SD. The superior show, but Raw was more entertaining.

[@quentinkaasa47]

Monday Nights on SpikeTV were awesome back then. After RAW I would always tune in to watch Robot Wars, hosted by Chyna and Mick Foley; and then afterwards or instead of airing that, they would have an all-night marathon of Most Extreme Elimination Challenge!

[@Kains_Gaming_Channel]

11:30. Oh Christian, you lucky Bastard.

[@ThatStokeBloke]

Survior Series 2003 was and always will be the greatest PPV of all time.

[@optimus2008]

Greatest of all time? A little too far fetched, don't ya think?

[@ThatStokeBloke]

@@optimus2008 I've watched WWE year in year out for nearly 20 years, hundreds of PPV's watched and I still firmly believe this was the best of the lot in terms of storylines and drama in general. The big disappointment was the mainevent, the highlight was Team Austin v Team Bischoff, as a kid and even now I find it one of the most enthralling and emotion charged wrestling matches I've ever seen.

[@MrBrownsugar85]

Love the ppv rankings for 2002-2007. Maybe not financial success, but always thought that period was the best in terms of overall product

[@Mattyman1987]

Armageddon is ranked far too high. Backlash to me is underrated, bad blood was just average, and No Way Out was actually pretty good before the big 3 main events. Armageddon had a decent Orton vs RVD match, and a very average Batista (who was green as baby shit at the time) vs HBK match. Everything else was bad to just absolute shit.

[@TheThird1977]

Since it's a re-upload, will repeat my previous comment. Just about to watch the video and fully expect WMXIX to be near the top of the heap.

[@liamoliver8011]

Best year off all time

[@ryanh4453]

I still have the DVD box set of 2003 all the spines made a picture, that made me happy back then

[@toddrickfrancis8860]

You know 2003 was the best year for WWE PPVs because this is the only video that had to get reuploaded.😜

[@daleharris3809]

That spot with Benoit getting dropped always makes me cringe. It was obviously an accident, if you watch the video you can hear Matt Bloom checking on Benoit and apologizing. Still, considering what happened, things like this always carry a lot more weight.

[@Christiantheforestdweller]

How about a united states champions ranked list

[@alex_2744]

They are already in the process of making it. I think Adam said it would be around October I’m not sure tho

[@Christiantheforestdweller]

@KingsHeathDon91 oh yes I am so for that 😂

[@JM1993951]

I begged my dad to order Bad Blood but we didn’t have the right network. He surprised me by taking me to his friend’s house to watch Vengeance. Much better show.

[@bubbajoshproductions3990]

I was at that Unforgiven. Seeing Shane climb to get away from Kane and then that bump he took. Wow! You have no idea how high it is unless you saw it live

[@mohammed3aziz671]

2003 was my favourite year

[@retroswine1885]

I rushed to watch the video to realize i already watched it. Love the channel been watching since you all worked for WC

[@mrmoviemanic1]

NGL 2003 was one of my favourite years as a kid.

[@aidanphillips7961]

I love 2003. It’s the year that got me into wrestling. Had everything! Loved it

[@dubbkenobby6542]

I remember when I was a kid, we had pay TV (Cable TV) for basically all of 2003 and I was OBSESSED with the weekly shows. I was even lucky enough to scoop a few of the PPVs after nagging the parents. SummerSlam will always be my favourite and one of my favourites of all time.

[@frozyre7854]

This year was the beginning of the year where Raw would kinda go to sleep and hand Smackdown the tolerable brand carrying the company on it's back for several years. Oh and HHH Reign of Terror was alive and well.

[@SCWTheWrestlingChannel]

Some amazing PPVs back in 2003! Can’t beat WrestleMania 19 imo. One of the greatest Mania’s in history!

[@SJ_RANKS]

Vengeance was my favourite ppv of 2003

[@TimTE01]

The explanation for Goldberg not winning at Summerslam is supposedly that he wouldn't do the European Tour. Lame, if true. Why is an injured, non-performing Champ better though?

[@alickaliker7322]

2003 was easily smackdown year also my favourite brand 😊

[@andre_kidd9563]

Don't forget that kurt also broke his neck during the handicap tag team match at no way out

[@apjithin]

2003 wasn't such a bad year considering the current plight of WWE right now😂😂😂

They may have had a stacked roster, but it's incomplete without Mojo.

[@ffpunk777]

Survivor series 2003 team Austin vs team bischoff is my favorite survivor series match of all time

[@optimus2008]

SmackDown has always seemed to be better than Raw. During the PG and Reality Eras, SmackDown was rather silent and Raw was the main TV show with Cena vs. Punk and Cena vs. Rock, but in the Ruthless Aggression Era and since 2016, SD has always seemed to make Raw bad with good quality.

[@axeadaptor7615]

It was a simpler more terrible time

[@insignificantaftermathPROJECTS]

At least mention who is in every match so I dont have to Wikipedua everytime lol

[@CyclopsWasRight616]

imagine how different things would have gone if Albert has broken Benoit's neck that night ?

[@DanDev1to]

For me Unforgiven was much better than No Mercy

[@andresgc770]

I forgot to make this comment when the original came out, so here's to second chances! Part of the problem with Insurrextion was that the card was almost a carbon copy of Bad Blood, which happened like a week later. Thus, the show was very uneventful (even for British WWE PPV standards), since they were saving all the title changes and major storyline progression for Bad Blood.

[@tyrone5969]

Triple H is severely injured with greatly reduced mobility. Goldberg is Goldberg. Vince McMahon: "Let's have them wrestle Bill's longest match in half a decade!"

[@iainthompson3080]

Every 2002 wwe ppv ranked from worst to best

[@colebarkman3836]

I actually really like Judgment Day. I thought it was a pretty fun show. The ladder and stretcher matches I thought were great. The banter between Austin and Bischoff throughout the show was hilarious. I also thought that everything else wasn't bad with the exception of Hogan and Piper. I won't even condemn the bikini contest because I'm a red blooded male and wow. All that being said, I would put Judgment Day in about the middle of the pack with the big four all being better and Vengeance above it as well. Personal preference I'm sure but I enjoyed it.

[@quentinkaasa47]

Judgment Day is one of the best PPV's from this year. Overall, it's a much easier show to watch back than that bi-polar Royal Rumble or pretty much any of the single branded pay-per-views.

[@henrikschmidt3964]

Though it is tainted to no end these days, I was really moved at the post-match scene after Angle-Benoit at the Royal Rumble. The director had to hastily switch cameras to capture a true 'moment' in wrestling. Benoit was alone in the ring, selling, and fans just started to get on their faet and applaud. It was completely organic. Fans let fans - and management - know that they really liked Benoit's talents. That Meltzer did not give it five stars is criminal.

[@calebellis7173]

2003 Smackdown was way better than Raw in those days HHH ego was bigger than his nose Raw was boring 💤 stiff dramatic and repetitive while Smackdown was fresh and exciting everyone got a opportunity
