Well we have a thread like this in the TV forum, so I thought why not have one here.
I just watched Team Austin (HBK, RVD, The Dudleyz and Booker) vs Team Bischoff (Y2J, CLB, Orton, Henry and Stiener) from SSeries 03.
I remember the first time I watched this and thought it was great emotional match as Austin's career was on the line. It starts off slow with Mark Henry in the match and Scott Stiener (who is even worse than Henry. Seriously it's embarrassing seeing him struggle to even stand up.), but it really picks up once a bloody HBK had to battle back against Christian, Jericho and Orton. I still think it's good, but seeing how Austin came back two weeks later it completely pissed on the stipulation.
Overall 7/10. I hate these type of matches but this is the best 5 on 5 elimination match I've ever seen. The rest of the PPV is alright-poor though.

I just watched another 10 man tag match I found on Youtube. It was HHH, X-Pac, Benoit, Saturn and Malenko vs Foley, Rock, Rikishi & 2 Cool. You also have Guerrero and Tori and ringside while Stephanie is doing commentating.
I think it's one of the best matches I've ever seen lol. The best crowd ever certainly. They marked out huge for every single move, simply incredible.

lol, the quality of that match is awful.
Anyway, with thanks to Captain Charisma debuting on ECW I went back to watch one of his older matches. I've watched Christian vs. Y2J at WMXX. It's one of the better matches of the night on the card and I enjoyed it. Watching it almost 5 years removed, it's quite funny to see how different these two look now. Christian not so much, but Y2J is looking old now.

lol, that match was ridiculous. The start if that match had so many things happening it was impossible for the camera men to keep up. Also, I loved the end when Foley broke up the pin but it was completely ignored. That match was pretty amusing though, good find woo.
Over the weekend I saw....
The 2003 Rumble Match....
I really enjoyed 03's rumble. Jericho was great in it. I loved when Dreamer hit him over the face with the kendo stick and y2j just T'd off on him. Also Cena's rap was really good. I thought it was great that it took up the entire 90 seconds and by the time he got into the ring the next guy was already coming out. I just thought cena was great as a heel and it really shows here.
7/10
I also watched HBK vs Jericho and Austin vs Rock at mania.
After watching the rumble with HBK and Jericho I needed to see the finish to this feud and what a great match this was. This match was I think 5th on the card but it stole the show imo. Just an amazing performance by two greats..... 8/10
Austin vs Rock had a great pace to it and was really fun to watch. Not as good as their past mania matches but these two never seem to go wrong when facing each other.... 7/10

I think the 03 Rumble is vastly underrated. There are some great moments in it, some planned others not.
The Dreamer thing is funny as you can hear Y2J shout "him me again!" and then Tommy does but right in Chris' face lol. I think Chris then smacked Dreamer as hard as he could with the kendo stick to get revenge lol.
Cena's rap was good, I liked the line "I'm like a swollen penis, you can't beat me." Imagine PG face Cena saying that these days! The way he kept running out of breath during his entrance was amusing too.
Matt Fact- Matt Hardy Strongly Dislikes Mustard. lol, I loved Mattitude. Shannon Moore helped make this rumble fun too.
I kind of felt like the Rumble lost steam after Chris was eliminated by Test, that was stupid.
You should listen to the Spanish commentating during the Rumble, it's hilarious! "Shhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaan Michaels!" then one guy starts singing "Christian! At last your on your ooooooooooooown!" and then after Cena's rap one of them copies B2 and shouts "BOOYA!" Awesome stuff.

I just watched Styles vs Daniels in their second 30 minute iron man match. It was from Bound For Glory 2005 and is a five star match imo. I dunno how they managed to go flat out for half an hour like that and the closing moments are so tense. If you haven't seen it you should try searching for it on youtube or Dailymotion.
I also watched Benoit/HBK/HHH from 2004 Backlash as I wanted to see the spot where HBK had Benoit in the sharpshooter and Earl Hebner runs out to call the match. Somehow I remember it getting much more heat, but that could be because I saw HBK being a dickhead in Montreal 2005 where they played Bret Hart's music before hand as the heat from that promo was some of the loudest I have ever heard.
He just can let SSeries 97 die can he?
