Live Report From ECW December To Dismember PPV, More

Thanks to PWMania.com reader Edward J. Wood for sending this in:

Location: Sam's Town Live, Sam's Town Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas

It was a ballroom with three big screens. At floor level: round tables with chairs; further back, rows of theater seats. Waitresses wore zebra shirts and hot pants.

It was an older crowd, like you'd expect at a casino. Hardcore rowdies in the front row. The crowd was mostly quiet: too spread out for any crowd psychology. I spotted one t-shirt for ECW and two for DX.

During Joey Stiles' pre-game show, a local DJ handed out door prizes. When he asked who would win the main event, the crowd went for, "Lashley!" When the DJ suggested Big Show, the crowd booed. A few laughs when the DJ silenced a heckler, "What's your name, sir? IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOUR NAME IS!"

Hardys vs MNM: The crowd was behind the Hardys all the way. People were yelling at Melina to, "Shut up, b—h!" HUGE pop when Melina was drop-kicked.

Striker vs Mahoney: The crowd was behind Balls all the way.

Backstage with Sabu: The chants of "Bulls–t!" were clearly audible, and a few in my place picked it up.

Burke & Terkay vs FBI: Bathroom time for most of the crowd.

Daivari vs Dreamer: Loud boos when Daivari came out. Cheers when Dreamer got back to his feet after Kali's choke slam.

Knox & Kelly vs Thorn & Ariel: Laughter and applause when Kelly wished Punk good luck. Cheers whenever Ariel climbed up on the ropes or did a high kick, showing her thong. HUGE pop for the Sandman.

Extreme Elimination Chamber: Heyman's speech was heckled throughout. The crowd seemed to be behind RVD, but they cheered when Lashley won.

Biggest Pops: Lashley's victory, Melina's dropkick, Sandman's entrance, Dreamer's recovery.

Biggest Heat: Daivari's entrance, Knox's exit.
