New Batista Look-A-Like WWE Star (Pic), CZW/JAPW, & More

— Adrian G. Romo sent in these notes from the WWE RAW Event In Anaheim, California this past week: I wouldn’t even say it was half full…looked less than that. The Bella Twins were there to pick a guest timekeeper and to pass out shirts later on. I’m pretty sure Mason Ryan won the match with Zach Ryder. Before the start of the Nexus vs Santino/Vlad match the general manager sent an email wanting a dance off which of course Santino/Vlad won. I saw Jaime Noble come out of a door and getting food or drinks at a concession stand. I didn’t get a chance to say hi or take a pic with him. The Morrison/Daniel match was really great..lots of back and forth action which ended with Morrison doing a hurancarana and Daniel rolling into a sunset flip style cover for the 3 count. The Divas match was horrible…it ended with Fox not the legal person at her corner kicking Eve when she bounced off the ropes for a DQ. They couldn’t come up with a better finish than that??? Perhaps they were short on time but it was plain awful. It was weird to see how the cage went up. I’m an old school guy so this was much different than the cages of the past or the pre built ones that are lowered but watching the ref help build it was fun to see and its been ages since I’ve seen a WWE house show so the minimal lighting truss and no stage and regular barricades. It made me think of the old days when the LA Sports Arena or NWA at the Forum was completely sold out and shows were like this except having a cage match and no blood I didn’t enjoy and there were no shirts sizes for 2XL anywhere. How can anyone think no one bigger than a XL will be watching pro wrestling. I bought the new Chris Jericho DVD there since I couldn’t find it anywhere nearby. I’m assuming the show they were promoting is going to be a super show too with the names announced. Overall, a fun show..we brought two kids with us who bought Mysterio masks and totally loved the show. I just yearn for some more PG-13 stuff
