Made the 4 1/2 hour drive to Bossier City/Shreveport LA for the Smackdown/ECW house show at the Centurytel Center. An unexpected trip but we were bored and decided to go. Lucked out and got free tickets so really the trip was pretty much free. Seats were not the greatest but they were alright about 1 section off from center and 10 rows off the floor but like I said they were free so who cares. We almost decided to go onto Lafayette to RAW tonight but we decided we better not. The arena had the upperdeck tarped off but the lower level and floor were pretty much packed. My camera died during the main event so I don't have any pictures of that.
Show started off with Teddy Long and EVE coming out. Teddy Long told us what matched would be taking place and then informed the crowd that Batista could not make it and offered everyone a refund if they wanted it. EVE talked about how we could send a text message to vote on what kind of match we wanted Chavo and CM punk to have. I dont remember the choices but the street fight was picked. I Really don't think anyone voted because nobody had their phones out texting that I could see.
Kofi Kingston defeated Shelton Benjamin
John Morrison defeated Tommy Dreamer
Match was supposed to be an extreme rules match but Morrison got on the mic and said he talked to Vickie and the match would no longer be an extreme rules match.
Jesse and Festus defeated Kurt Hawkins and Zac Ryder
Festus went into the crowd before the match and just kept walking until the bell rang and then ran into the ring. After the match they got a kid from the crowd to dance with them
Jamie Noble defeated Matt Striker
Most boring match of the night.
MVP came out to the ring and talked about how great he was and he issued an open challenge for his belt which Matt Hardy responded to and got a HUGE pop.
Matt Hardy defeated MVP via DQ
MVP hit matt in the leg with a chair to get the DQ. Really good match
INTERMISSION
Kelly Kelly came out to throw T-Shirts out and ring announce the next divas match. Her voice was awful sounding on the speakers.
Michelle McCool defeated Victoria
Chavo Guerrero defeated CM Punk in a street fight
I think this was the best match of the night. Took awhile to get started because Chavo kept getting the crowd mad and some hillbilly tough guys decided to go up to the barricade and argue with him... funny stuff. CM punk was not wearing his usual tights. He had some Paul London like shorts on.
Undertaker and Kane defeated Edge and Mark Henry
Lots of heat on Edge and Taker and Kane of course got the biggest pop of the night.
After the show we went out to where they were leaving. CM punk signed for everyone down the fence which was alot of people. I had a poster I grabbed from inside the arena advertising the event and had him sign it. CM punk although signing was rude to everyone. One lady asked if he would take off his hoodie so she could take a picture of him and he said "no thanks.. don't take and pictures" One lady snapped a picture of him through the fence and he looked up at her and gave her a huge go to hell look. When I gave him my poster he looked at it for about 15 seconds probably seeing if he was on it (which he was not) shook his head in disapproval and signed it. Someone asked him where he was going next and he told them Biloxi which is where SD/ECW is Tuesday then he said well I will be at RAW to wherever the hell thats at.
So thats my story for this trip
