Raw Houseshow Results (Jackson, TN 15/01/10)

[Jason]

1. Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase def. Evan Bourne & MVP. DiBiase pins Bourne with Dreamstreet. MVP is wearing his older long sleeve attires before the Mark Henry team.

2. Paul Burchill beat Johnny Curtis with a Jackhammer. Burchill worked as a face.

3. The Miz def. Chavo Guerrero, Chris Masters and Jack Swagger in a fatal four way for the US title. He pinned Swagger after the Skull Crushing Finale.

4. The Bella Twins def. Maryse & Alicia Fox.

5. Randy Orton def. Kofi Kingston. Orton kicks out of the Trouble in Paradise. Kingston kicks out of the 1st RKO and Orton gets the win with a second. PPV quality and Match of the Night.

Santino cuts a promo about how he's going to win the Royal Rumble. Sheamus enters and destroys him.

7. Sheamus def. Mark Henry with a big boot, to retain the WWE Championship. Henry is wearing his older black attire from before the MVP tag team.

8. Triple H def. Big Show in a Street Fight with a Sledge Hammer. Hornswoggle interfered.

Sounds like a pretty good show. I'm happy MVP is wearing his older attires again, it felt like a part of his character was taken away when he switched to no sleeves. He looked much cooler and unique with sleeves. And Henry looks better in black... Burchill working face is interesting.

That show looks almost like the Albany show the day after Christmas, so I'll be giving this one a thumbs down on paper.

Paul Burchill as a face?

Oh, PLEEEEEEEEASE tell me Vince finally saw Pirates of the Carribean!

Well Raw already has plenty of heel jobbers.

[Killah Ray]

I'm going to the Smackdown house show in Florence,SC tomorrow, and I'm just hoping to see Danielson(not counting on it). Looks a helluva lot better than the Raw house show we got last July though....

[lionheart21]

Burchill actually won a match? Huh. Now if only Katie could win one.

Also looking forward to seeing how he would work as a face without the pirate gimmick.

[Pounder]

I don't get why house show results are reported like wrestling is like some kind of legitimate sport or something.

Surely if you want to report back from a house show, you'll at least colour it up a bit to give the reader some kind of flavour as to what happened. Some are good and go into detail but the one quoted in the original post are the one's I don't really get.

Are we supposed to sit down marking cards? Do people have 'Fantasy Wrestling' teams they're keeping point score on? Anyone made a bet?

What's with it?

It's like a report from an audience member attending an episode of Frasier going something like

Frasier spoke to Niles

Daphne in a scene with Martin w/Eddie

Roz and Kenny met in coffee shop - fade out

overall, fun show

[brettappedout (BLM)]

I wouldn't get to excited for the old attire. They were it at House Shows to save there TV wear for TV.

Hate to sound like a "HHHater" but I can't support putting his match on after the title match. Call me old fashioned, but I think the championship should close the show.

Too many heels won in a house show. You should always send the crowd home happy. Thats my opinion.

True, looking back at it, there was a lot of heel wins. I can kind of see where they may have been coming from.

I mean, hell, I don't think Sheamus should be in main events anyway, but if they're going to put the belt on him, it should at least be considered.

If you're the World Champ, you should be in the main event. If the company doesn't think you can main event you shouldn't get the belt.

So, WWE needs to treat Sheamus like a main eventer or get the belt off him.

Same problem with him as Punk's first title run: None of the real big names will do the job for him. Shawn doesn't do much house shows, Cena has back problems and workout buddy or not, Triple H does not job unless Vince drags him into it kicking and screaming
