I was at the RAW and SD shows this week, AMA.

What did it smell like
Did you bring a sign?
how many times did you use the restroom?
who won?
What were the crowd reactions like really? How much did they edit out for tv?

>What did it smell like
Not much. Only two RAW acts even had pyro (Hardyz and Neville).
>>2637722
>Did you bring a sign?
No
>>2637724
how many times did you use the restroom?
RAW: 1
SD: 0
>who won?
Not them.
>What were the crowd reactions like really? How much did they edit out for tv?
RAW crowd was rowdier for sure, lots of unrelated chants ("Wenger out" for example). SD crowd wasn't quite as good but still lots of chants for people like AJ Styles. Kevin Owens did a great job of getting heel heat after everyone cheered his first entrance.
As for TV edits, I don't know, when would I have had time to watch them back?
>>2637742
Back when I went to tv tapings, I would record the show as a souvenir. But this was before the network, I suppose all shows will be on there eventually.
>>2637757
I've downloaded the shows of course but just haven't had time to watch them. Didn't get back until 01:00 after RAW.
I'd be on the hard cam for SD, not RAW though (a few rows back).
I was there too.
Did you stay to watch 205live after Smackdown?
>>2637779
Yeah, it was actually pretty fun and the dark main event afterwards (Ziggler v Nakamura) was cool. Even with all that it finished at 22:00, whereas RAW finished at 22:30.
What was the heat like for Tripp Bradshaw?
>>2637847
Decent. After he made it to the announce table a large "fire Bradshaw" chant started, with some "JBL" responses. It happened again later during a lull but was nowhere near as loud.
>>2637716
what did you use to take that picture? jeez like 99% of the photos taken in arenas by attendees look like crap but yours looks great
>>2637853
Phone. All the other shots I took look like crap too, just got lucky with the lighting there.
>>2637716
Why was the Raw crowd so dead?
>>2637866
Combination of:
> most WWE crowds are dead these days
> decent number of parents + kids
> British people are quite reserved
There were small pockets of guys trying to start chants, including in the row behind me, but around half didn't get anywhere. 3 hours is also a long time, we got tired at the end and couldn't even be arsed to stand up for ring entrances, etc.
Dean Ambrose easily got the best crowd reactions on RAW, alongside R-Truth I guess.
