Thanks to Eddy Cornelison for the following:
Well I just got back from the PPV and it was awesome. Here is some stuff that happened off camera.
- Rhyno signed autographs at a local bar before the PPV. He is a real nice guy.
- Shane McMahon was sitting near a camera. During the video hyping the HIAC match our section got a big "Shane O Mac" chant and he gave us a wave.
- When Orton fell into the crowd he landed on me and 2 other guys. I was the one with the WCW shirt and white pants. I took 2 pictures of him while he was by me.
- The crowd was really hot the whole night no matter what it sounded like on TV the crowd was into it. The arena was about 70% full. The crowd equally booed the faces as much as the heels minus Coach, La Resistance and Tomko. The fans were really behind Orton early on but once Shelton mounted all that offence fans really wanted to see Shelton pull out the win. As for the main event the fans were probably 50/50. HHH got more chants but HBK got more cheers.
- After the show the ref helped up HBK and he was given a standing ovation. He really looked and felt banged up but also had the look of relief on his face.
- In closing the show itself was very good and Orton slipping on the middle rope drew a lot of laughter.
