The Raw Tag Team Titles changed hands at a House Show not long ago after New Years Revolution when Regal and Eugene retained, but Eugene was injured. Regal lost to La Resistance.

I'm betting the Tag Team belts will change hands at one of those, just to further destroy the history and integrity of them.

house show changes rarely happen now as well, if they do it's only to remove a strap from someone who's being released without wasting airtime.

Do the titles change hands at the American house shows? Nope.

Give it a year or so and Vince would have annoyed the North American audience enough for them to switch off for him to have to come over here and Japan and try to sell his crappy declining product

Everytime I've been to a live event all the titles are on the line, they never seem to change hands though.........

Wasn't the European title won over on English soil at one of the PPV's

no, there WAS a change relatively recently (in terms of how many ppv events have been held in england), but it wasn't to either of the BIG titles.
i forget which it was, but i'm sure there was a change as i was amazed, as prior to that (like you say) the straps never changed as apparantly US fans are so selfish that if it doesn't happen on their soil then they feel ripped off :-\
either that or they'd do something lame like change champs on a UK ppv, then switch back at a USA house show so when tv rolled around again, theyd go "oh yeah, he won it back.. all is as it was" in a lame simpsons-esque "this never happened, 3 2 1.. you're back in the room" kinda way.

Seems to ring a bell. Wouldn't it be nice if a belt changed hands at a WWE show in England? By my reckoning the last one was at Summerslam 92 when the British Bulldog bat Bret Hart for the Intercontinental Title at Wembley stadium. WM23 at the new Wembley stadium? It would certinally get an attendance of 90000+

Insurrextion or something like that

If I ever stay up to watch a PPV I always get hungry and end up cooking a feast but rarely manage half of it - exceptions are when a PPV comes from England, there was one from Manchester a few years back but I can't remember what it was? Had a few mates round to watch it the main event was Edge vs Christian in a cage match can anyone remember what it was?
