Hello, I attended the RAW event last night. It was about 90% full with just the top bowl tarped off. The crowd was hot through the first half of the show, but then died down.
DARK:
*Chris Masters defeated Steve Madison.
HEAT:
*Rob Conway defeated Val Venis
*WWE Women’s champion Trish Stratus defeated Molly Holly
*Tajiri defeated Steven Richards (awesome match!)
RAW:
The RAW opening segment was pretty good. The crowd was into it. Batista was way over with the crowd. There were a lot of “E-C-W chants” during Rhyno’s, Stevie’s, Tajiri’s and Jericho’s matches. Overall the show was pretty good and was actually worth the money. The HBK/Edge brawl was awesome. It literally went through the ENTIRE arena during the break.
DARK:
After the show the best part of the night The Bonus 6 man tag was Edge & HHH & Batista vs. Y2J & Benoit & Orton with Special referee HBK. This was FUNNY AS HELL. It started off with HHH playing rock-paper-scissor shoot with his team and he lost. After that, Benoit hit HHH with chops which led to HHH running up the ramp like a girl. Then Edge did the same, then Batista. HHH started performing CPR on Edge (tons of laughs). In the middle of the match, HHH’s team got their tights pulled down so you can see their bare behinds. They left their tights down for at least 5 minutes and were actually wrestling like that. After the match, HBK kicked Edge which caused him to become dizzy and land in some girl’s chest! After Edge picked his head up, his face had to be the funniest thing I’ve ever seen.
POPS:
1. Orton, Y2J, Benoit, HBK (After the show)
2. Batista during last closing segment
3. Shawn Michaels
4. Edge (after show)
5. Lilian Garcia
HEAT:
1. Muhammad Hassan
2. Maven (Although it was better than the PPV, everybody was angry at the Shelton/Maven match)
3. HHH during RAW
4. Simon Dean (also some laughs)
5. The Hurricane (Floridian’s aren’t big Hurricane fans, 4 was enough)
Overall awesome show, most interactive show I’ve been to. I enjoyed being there live, and if RAW makes it your city and advertises a Bonus match, GO as they’re worth it!
