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.
Where were you sat?
And yes, the Flair & Batista vs Benoit & Edge match was the best, pretty much because of Flair's acting and stuff. What a guy.
The Orton, Triple H match was nothing special Lakers. Triple H bled to try and make the match interesting but it was pretty much filled out with submission holds and Orton getting beat for 3/4 of the match, so the crowd rooted for him and all.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
has anyone seen that Bob Dylan (i think) video where the guy is holding all those signs with key parts of the lyrics written on them and he throws them away in time with the song??
well i thought about nabbing that idea for promos, say absolutely nothing, but just have 4 signs that will make the sentence:
1)this
2)will
3)hurt
4)you
or something similar. i got the sentence from Ren and Stimpy :)
i don't know, just an idea, but i thought it was kinda interesting, more interesting than screaming details of HOW you'll hurt them, and a little more sinister.
opinions?
> Well if i go to a Smackdown event i've got my signs sorted :-D
Can't think of any for Raw...
Guess the characters on Smackdown are more interesting...
No! Wait! Hang on!
"Eugene is my mentor"
"Kane stole my lighter"
"Tyson Tomko's Tattoo Artist ---->"
"Christian = Captain Birdseye"
"Big Show ate my wife"
"Eddie stole my car" - Accompanied by a chant of 'Eddie, where's my car?' to the tune of 'XXXXX, what's the score?'
"Tajiri - Arsenal's new striker"
"RVD smoked my weed"
