Royal Rumble 2003

1. Brock Lesnar defeated Big Show by pinfall

For whatever reason, these guys have really good matches together. Most of them are kept short, which is probably for the best, but Lesnar really seemed to enjoy being in the ring with Show.

Rating: 2.75 (out of 5)

2. The Dudley Boyz defeated Lance Storm + William Regal by pinfall to win the World Tag Team Championships

The tag team division at this point was already just a waste of time. Both teams are good, but the WWE already gave up.

Rating: 2.5

3. Torrie Wilson defeated Dawn Marie by pinfall

Everyone's favorite angle. Next.

Rating: .25

4. Scott Steiner defeated Triple H by disqualification

This one is infamous for being horribly bad. Scott Steiner is so embarrasing in this match that should have probably released him the next night. Triple H was far from great in here, but he was trying pretty hard to make Steiner look good and that just wasn't happening.

Rating: .25

5. Kurt Angle defeated Chris Benoit by submission

***Match Of The Night***

I don't know if two back to back world title matches have been so completely opposite before this show. This match is absolutely awesome and if you for some reason haven't seen it, it is worth buying the DVD just for this.

Rating: 4.75

6. Brock Lesnar won the Royal Rumble

This was a pretty obvious ending, but the right one. The match itself was solid, especially the Jericho/Michaels build that ended up being brilliant.

Rating: 3.5

Well, the last two matches are the show and make this an overall winner. The Steiner/Triple H match is so bad that you have to see it at least once. This is one of the few shows in 2003 that was truly memorable.

Overall Rating: 82%
