JoeDirt 0 Report post Posted December 7, 2004 From WrestlingObserver.com Dark Match: "The Masterpiece" Chris Masters p. CW Anderson (they billed him from Charlotte) with the fisherman's suplex (Masterplex?) Dark Match or Heat squash, don't know which: Gene Snitsky p. Maurice ? (African American, wore Carolina blue tights and boots, didn't catch the last night over WWE's muffled speakers) Heat: Rhyno p. Sylvan Grenier (got the most heat of the... Heat matches) Val Venis p. Steven Richards Rob Conway p. Tajiri (best Heat match) Post-show: Lita continued to celebrate, that's about it. NOTES: *Approximately 2,000 seats on the camera side were tarped off, however, they did have to open up a section of about 100 seats to accomodate everyone. That in itself may sound good, until I counted that the rest of Independence Arena, with the RAW setup and those tarped-off seats, was seating an absolute maximum of 5,000, maybe more in the 4,500 range. *I'm presuming that the ECW DVD was doing steady business at the gimmick stands, only because there were 4 sold in the minute-change I was on line to get my own copy. *After the Edge/Orton segment went to break, Orton ran back to the ring and RKO'd Edge, posed on the ramp for the pop, etc. *Gotta love Vince, coming out with Big Goldie on his shoulder smack in the middle of old Crockett country. *The Desire, as always, played at the beginning of the show. UT, Rock, and Austin got the loudest pops, Flair of course got the "Wooo!". Next biggest pops, but a level down from the top 3, were for Benoit and Bret.

(African American, wore Carolina blue tights and boots, didn't catch the last night over WWE's muffled speakers) I would say it was Desmond Thompson (aka Maurice in OVW), but he got dropped from his developmental deal a month ago. Hmmm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest LooneyTune Report post Posted December 7, 2004 Too bad this is International Heat, thanks to Armageddon this weekend. Val/Richards and Tajiri/Conway had potential to be entertaining. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
