Lilian comes out and sings the British anthem, not many people stand up
Rhyno and Tajiri vs Hurricane and Rosey begins. I would say this was probably the best match for the wrestlers interacting with the crowd especially when the horn was going off and we were chanting for Rhyno and he picked up on it and wanted us to do it again. Very fun solid match with Rhyno goring Rosey for the win.
Quickly go on to next match which was Shelton Benjamin vs Chuck Palumbo - First off why? They can't give Mr Benjamin a decent opponent? Palumbo hasn't even appeared on RAW in a match i think. Anyway Benjamin wins somehow can't remember, which shows how dull it is was.
Trish Stratus and Molly vs Victoria and Nidia - What you'd expect from a women's match really. Nothing special although our stand were the loudest and got to see Victoria and Nidia do that having a epileptic fit thing.
Eugene and Regal vs La Resistance - La Resistance start to sing the Canadian national anthem, more people stand up but only to boo, then Regal and Eugene come out for a big pop. Coach comes out to announce he's the referee. Eugene and Grenier botch a leapfrog with Grenier not ducking down far enough. Eugene doing his usual stuff of riding around on the Quebec flag like a horse and pretending to steal Grenier's nose. La Resistance win with a roll up and a quick pin. Coach then gets the stunner and the power of the punch.
Val Venis vs Maven - again why, at first i thought this was the intermission but was proved wrong later when they actually took one. Went on far too long, rubbish.
Jericho and Michaels vs Captain Charisma and Tiresome Botchko - Good match although Michaels gets taken out early with a chair shot to his knee on the stairs. Hardly a shock as he comes back as Jericho is getting beat up and totally no sells the knee injury when he gets in the ring and whoops everyone. Superkick to Tomko i think for the win. Speaking of that it was an amazing sight to see all the cameras go off at the same time when the superkick happened
Intermission, was annoyed. The Val Venis and Maven match WAS the intermission
Flair and Batista vs Benoit and Edge - Probably the best match although we saw far too much of Flair's OAP ass and almost more, made me glad at that point we didn't have a titantron. Also Batista finally falls through the middle ropes, well done steroid monkey. Benoit slaps the crossface on Flair for the win.
Then had to catch my train back so missed Orton v HHH, not a great loss although i did shout some abuse to HHH before leaving :-D
Special mention goes to the idiot 2 rows down from us who must have tried to lead 30 chants but with no luck. Biggest pop of the night went to the lady who told him to shut up after about the 20th one. :-D
Also quite a surprising low number of chops, saved them all for the Flair match.

There wasn't that many!
As far as I remember there was:-
Dudley Dudley, (The Original...)
Little Snot Dudley,
Big Dick Dudley,
DW (Dances With) Dudley, (Red indian gimmick...)
Buh Buh Ray Dudley,
D-Von Dudley,
Sign Guy Dudley,
Chubby Dudley, (Fat boy who accompanied to the ring and ate all match...)
Little Spike Dudley
and the unoffical 'Studley Dudley' - Joel Gertner...
So 9 1/2 Dudleys by my estimation...
i've gone off the idea now anyway.

Sounds a bit like Sign Guy Dudley from ECW, although he was just part of the Dudley entourage instead of an in-ring competitor...
At wembley the, the amin event was a six man tag between Evolution and Bentiot, Michaels and Orton. Orton won it with the R.K.O on Batista.
Kane lost via disqualification to Snitsky. Kane grabbed a steel chair.
Funnily enough, the only person who got a heel reaction was Val Venis.
Even Kane was being Cheered!

Block 119, seats 6 & 7 so at the front of that block but behind the fans who were in the block closest to ringside.
Pretty good seats, couldn't really see anyone when they came out for their entrances but could see the action in the ring really well.
Oh and you must have missed Kane Vs Gene Snitsky, they was on before Triple H Vs Orton. Not a bad match, Snitsky started off by shouting abuse at Kane, which led to Kane coming out and kicking his behind. Match ended with Snitsky running away after Kane put a Chair around Snitskys neck. Crowd were well behind Kane.

Or you could have "Heidenreich screwed England in Portugal!"
