Hey Rajah,
Love the site. Keep up the awesome work.
I just came back from the Raw show here at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne and thought
you might like the results.
* Shelton Benjamin Beat Rob Conway With The Exploder Suplex.
Interesting match to start with as it was a lot more technical than I would have
thought they would do for an opener. Big wanker chants for Conway.
* Murdoch & Cade Beat Viscera & Venis after Vis accidently squashed Venis in the
corner allowing the tag champs to hit there double team head-leg clothesline on Vis
for the win.
The champs talked trash to the crowd at the start and got wanker chants for
themselves. Murdoch should switch to decaf. He was going nuts before the match
started but the crowd loved it. Venis gave his towel to a kid at ringside after the
match.
*Trish beat Torrie with a Chick Kick. Trish lost a big chunk of hair after Torrie
gave her a hangman on the ropes and must of had a handfull of hair. Victoria tried
to interfere but got a Stratusfaction for her troubles. After the match Victoria
attacked again but Ashley made the save. Match was suprisingly good. Torrie has
gotten a lot better in the ring and they did well at hiding her weaknesses.
*Snitsky beat Tajiri with that move D'Lo Brown used just before he left WWE. That
front slam where they swing them out into a sidewalk slam. Snitsky hit a STIFF boot
to Tajiri's face near the end. Tajiri sold after the match like he was concussed.
*Show & HBK beat Masters & Carlito when Show chokeslammed Carlito and HBK
superkicked Masters. Show & HBK had fun mimmicking each others mannerisms and
Michaels even tried standing on Masters stomach like Show does. Big Show did a bit
of HBK dancing after the match.
*Kerwin White beat Eugene with a roll up and rope assistance. This came after the
interval and it was pretty bad. The infamous 'boring' chants started as a result.
Crowd was chanting Chavo all match.
*HHH defeated Flair with a pedigree. Flair bled like a stuffed pig. Triple H spent
some time mocking the Flair strut and that stupid little dance he does before
putting on the figure four. Flair shockingly got to jump off the top rope and hit
rather than get thrown off like every other week.
*Cena beat Angle with the FU. Unbelieveable how over Cena is. The place exploded
when his music hit. However once the match started Angle and Cena where about 50/50
for support. Mike Chioda took a big bump towards the end. Angle nailed Cena with the
steps a one stage, but Cena won with the FU after Angle hit himself with a chair.
Biggest Pops:
1. John Cena
2. Triple H
3. HBK
4. Kurt Angle
5. Big Show
Biggest Heat:
1. Rob Conway (first heel out)
2. Kerwin White & Eugene for how boring their match was.
