Survivor Series: 2002 vs 2003

[King P]

These are easily the best SS PPV's post 2000 and the best in a long time. Damn near every match was piff. But I still can't decide which one was better.

I mean 02 had the Elimination Chamber, the return of Scott Steiner, Lesnar and Show with Heyman turning on Brock (the pop for that F5 though ), and the divas match hardcore style

But 03 had elimination tag matches, Vince McMahon & Kane burying Undertaker alive, the classic ambulance match with Shane O'Mac and Kane Even the main event between Goldberg and Trips (which shouldn't have been the ME IMO) was great. Definitely one of Goldberg's best matches in the E (the promo with Trips bounty >>>)

So which PPV you rolling with?

RVD did well in the chamber match

RVD did well in the chamber match

Man, he fukked HHH up bad in that match. He landed on HHH's throat, gave him a black eye, and busted his lower lip. Of course, at the next PPV, RVD was nowhere to be found and he drifted in mid card land for many years after that. So, I guess HHH somewhat fukked him up (push wise) too.

its crazy, still makes me some type of way about rvd not being heavyweight champ

 

[Wacky D]

yea these were the best 2 post-millenium series shows hands-down. dope thread.

i dont know which one i'll take. SS02 was a lil more memorable but SS03 had the elimination tag matches on deck.

i'll wait and see more of the arguments before i decide.

Damn no talk about that ''Team Eric vs Team Austin'' when Stone Cold gave that retirement speech

Brehs.... notice the one constant in both of those PPVs that made them memorable....

Just another reason to before HBGOAT.

SS 02 is my fav PPV of all time never realized RVD was fukking HHH up. I always thought RVD had an insane amount of athleticism I think he had the big gold belt for a lil bit. Didn’t know he was stiffing people

SS02 was fire top to bottom like all the PPVs were around that time with that roster, but SS 03 had two GREAT traditional SS team matches. Very close call, but I'd say 03.

02 by a country mile on atmosphere alone. You really can't beat a MSG pay per view with the classic entrance. That's not even getting into the matches:

-Brock Lesnar getting the "he's arrived" MSG face pop before his official face turn, then putting on one of the best sub-5 minute matches ever with Big Show.
-The end of the triple threat feud between Angle/Benoit, Edge/Mysterio, and Los Guerreros (not even close to the SD6's best match, but still).
-The amazing, amazing atmosphere around the Elimination Chamber, with Jericho being played out live, RVD getting that ridiculous pop coming out, and Michaels winning it all. The only EC with better atmosphere was the New Year's Revolution 05 one they did in San Juan (insanely hot crowd that popped for everything, and a better match to boot).

There's really no comparison. I'm not sure there's been a better crowd and environment for a WWE PPV start to finish ever since.
