The 2003 Judgment Day was the fifth Judgment Day professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). It was held for wrestlers from the promotion's Raw and SmackDown! brand divisions. The event took place on May 18, 2003, at the Charlotte Coliseum in Charlotte, North Carolina. This event is notable in the fact that is the last non-Big Four pay-per-view that was not brand-exclusive until Backlash 2007.
Eight professional wrestling matches were scheduled for the event which featured a supercard, a scheduling of more than one main bout. The first main match was from the SmackDown! brand, which was the card's main event, and featured WWE Champion Brock Lesnar defeating Big Show in a Stretcher match to retain the title after Rey Mysterio interfered, attacking Big Show. The second main match was from the Raw brand and was between Kevin Nash and World Heavyweight Champion Triple H, where Nash won by disqualification. Three other championship matches were featured on the undercard. The first match featured Raw's WWE Women's Champion Jazz defeat Victoria, Jacqueline, and Trish Stratus in a Fatal Four-Way match to retain the title. The next was a Battle Royal for the revived Intercontinental Championship on Raw, which Christian won. The final was between the team of Eddie Guerrero and Tajiri and Team Angle (Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin) in a ladder match for SmackDown's WWE Tag Team Championship, which Guerrero and Tajiri won.
