10 Best WWE Matches of the Year 2003

#8 Rey Mysterio & Billy Kidman vs. Charlie Haas & Shelton Benjamin - Vengeance

An unexpected 10/10

This one is an incredibly underrated gem from a really excellent yet overlooked pay-per-view. SmackDown was running a little low on tag teams at the time so we had a brief reunion of former WCW Tag team Champions Rey Mysterio and Billy Kidman, who challenged Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin for the WWE Tag Team Championships.

Without a doubt the shining moment in the WWE career of Billy Kidman, this was one of the best WWE tag team matches ever. The action was red hot all match long, both teams going back and forth, a sling of reversals by both teams, several near falls including Kidman launching Rey onto the top rope for a hurricanrana on Hass but only leads to a 2 count. Kidman delivers a springboard Shooting Star Press to a huge pop.

The end came as Haas reversed Rey's headscissors into a modified Doomsday Device from Benjamin. Fantastic tag team match.
