Thanks to Hollywud4L@aol.com for sending in the following:

First, i want to let everyone know that it was not Paul Bearer in the glass case as you can imagine. They have some man with horrible mask and make-up job in the box. That was a huge part of the reason they never showed any true close-ups during the match. The first time Paul Heyman hit the switch to let the cement go into the box it took to long for the truck's barrel to get rolling and nothing happen. The production team automatically showed a shot of Paul Bearer being knee high in cement with honestly not a drop had fallen. Paul Heyman eventually left the truck due to having complications with it so that's part of the reason he was just in the middle of the entrance. The whole time the switch wasn't even on cement continuously flowed into the box.

After the PPV went off the air they immediately opened the box door and all the cement came slipping out. The paramedics had a hard time getting "Paul Bearer" into a stretcher before hauling him off to the back.

During the first Main Event with the bullrope match it they were having some electrical problems. They were testing the lights on each turnbuckle and apparently they were working fine. Some how during the match the person who was suppose to signal the lights for the correct person had a mix up and signed a turnbuckle that JBL never touched. Another turnbuckle throughout the match whenever hit kept continously blinking on and off.

I wonder if the bearer thing was as poorly done as Triple H being dropped from the crane or JR being lit on fire.

That's called 'a good idea'. So, it's out of the question.

I was wondering about the lights myself. They didn't even work half the time or took a while to come on. After seeing SNH where Cole and Tazz were in the ring, I saw Tazz hit the turnbuckle twice before the light came on, and even he looked confused.
