Live Report From WWE Raw in Manchester, United Kingdom: Dark Match Notes

November 11, 2013

WWE Raw notes Thanks to Harry for the live report from WWE Raw in Manchester:

-The crowd was hot most of the night. The dark match before the tapings began was barrett vs sandow. William Regal was out to do the ring introductions and got an insane pop. Barrett got a massive pop as well, and won.

-There was a great pop for when Randy Orton was slammed through the table.

-Dolph Ziggler got a decent pop as well and a few chants from the crowd.

-At one point, the crowd started doing the mexican wave and we did about 5 or 6 in a row.

-Manchester is still crazy about Fandango and the crowd danced.

-Cena got about 80% boos, which is the norm now, massive pops for both Bryan and Punk.

-The segment where The Shield and Wyatt Family had a brief brawl was the most electric of the night. The crowd absolutely loved it and were going crazy. Without a doubt, this was the best part of the night.

-After the camera stopped rolling, CM Punkand Daniel Bryan were raising the hands of The Uso's, Cody and Goldust to see who could the biggest cheers. They then started to raise each others hands to some crazy pops. Very funny segment.

Night ended with punk saying it was an honour to perform in front of us and thanked us for staying while they were goofing around. He then said he would be back tomorrow.

Overall really fun show, but triple h was definitely missed.
