Thanks to Inside Pulse reader Chase for sending these in.
Hey bro. Just wanted to give you a heads up on what happened at the RAW house show in MSG, in case you care. Just a brief report, and if you want more details, I’ll write one tomorrow after I get some rest.
Shelton Benjamin def. Christian to defend his IC title
Chris Masters def. Val Venis in an atrocious match
Trish Stratus def. Victoria and Molly Holly to defend her woman’s title
Superstar Billy Graham made a fool out of himself with the Coach
Kane defeated Snitsky
William Regal and Tajiri def. La Resistance
Chris Benoit def. Chris Jericho
Shawn Michaels def. Edge
Batista pinned HHH to win the tag team cage main event (Randy Orton and Ric Flair were also invovled, but were quickly eliminated from the proceedings)
One thing I HAVE to make note of; Batista was, by and large, about one billion times more over than anyone else, bringing the decently dead crowd completely to life again, and garnering about five different Batista chants of ear-shattering volume, something no one else even came close to touching. Sadly, Shelton Benjamins pop and crowd interest during his match were surprisingly low – people seemed more concerned with hating Christian than cheering him, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but… it makes Shelton seem like a placeholder.
