More Live News & Notes From RAW Last Night, More
Thanks to reader Adam Parker for sending along the following live notes from tonight's Raw:
- When Maryse came out during commercial she got very little reaction.
- After the Diva match they showed a Tribute To The Troops package (where former President Bush got heat when shown) while Kelly Kelly and the referee help Mickie out of the ring, who was still selling the eyes. Maryse gets like three people to react to her as she walks up the ramp.
- After Santino vs. Chavo, the lights go out for a Jeff Hardy video package. While the lights are out a bunch of people come to the ring as a way to bring out Hornswoggle to hide him under the ring and then they do the shirt cannon.
- Kennedy package got a great pop with everyone saying his name with him.
- Josh Matthews came out during the commercial to find the sign of the night. Some were: "I bought this ticket with money I saved from Geico", "My mom loves the Big Show", "Put me on TV, I'm a sexy beast" (a guy held it up).
- Kendrick and Goldust came out to a small pop during the break. Crowd was not into the tag match. The referees changed the canvas afterwards while a video package played.
- After Lawler-Show, referees came out to help Lawler to back as Jim Ross came out to a big pop. Lawler got a "Jerry" chant as he was assisted out.
- After the MVP vs. Hardy match, MVP got a good pop going up the ramp and gave one final "Ballin'" to the crowd.
- An Umaga video package was shown during the break after the MVP match.
- A Mike Knox promo was shown after the Vickie-Santina backstage segment, then an ECW commercial.
- After the Vickie-Santina match the referee helped Santina out of the ring. Vickie and Chavo walked out together while a Wrestlemania 25 commercial played, and then a Wrestlemania moment video highlighting Wrestlemania 9 as "the world's largest toga party."
- After the show ends, Legacy leaves, followed by Flair, then Batista. Batista signaled to Flair to stand with him on top of the stage, and they played up to the crowd. Lilian thanks us and that is it for the night.
