# WarGames (2003)

WarGames (2003) was a professional wrestling supercard event produced by Major League Wrestling (MLW), which took place on September 19, 2003, at the War Memorial Auditorium in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The event was a television taping for MLW Underground TV. It was the first MLW WarGames event.
Fourteen matches were contested at the event. The main event was the namesake WarGames match, in which The Funkin' Army (Bill Alfonso, Sabu, Steve Williams, Terry Funk and The Sandman) defeated The Extreme Horsemen (Barry Windham, CW Anderson, PJ Walker, Simon Diamond and Steve Corino). Aside from the WarGames match, the event also featured an eight-man J-Cup USA Tournament to crown the inaugural World Junior Heavyweight Champion.
