So I worked backstage at the last Raw...

[maverick1976]

Yes I really did! ;D

Saw Divas without makeup

Saw Sheamus minus his hair gel and saw Hornswaggle give a "high five" to big show in a somewhat surreal moment.

Saw Low Ki backstage along with Kidman, shook hands with the Brawler...who even the divas and talent call "Brawler" by the way.

Some random thoughts or observations on the event...

Most of these guys are smaller then the TV makes them look. Jaime Noble is no taller then 5' 9" I swaer to god.

The most impressive guys as far as size were Cena who looked uncomfortable in his own skin and Chris Masters. Honorable mention to Jack Swagger who is a legitimate Hoss of a man

Evan Bourne is Cody Rhodes mini me....I'm not kididng

The writing crew has 1 woman on it and the writing meeting had only two wrestlers sit in Shawn and Triple H

Cena and Shawn talked a lot and seemed to be friendly

Sheamus, despit current rumors was not seen with triple H by me at all

Triple H and Sean share a locker room with Mr McMahon... which was right next to the Diva Locker room

Eve IS the most beautiful woman on earth

If you compare Mickie to the rest of the Divas I see why the "fat" jokes happen. They are all twigs.

Biggest pop of the night was for Cena...most merch in the crowd was DX At ten dollars for a pair of glow sticks you can see why they are still beating this dead horse.

All in all the male wrestlers all seemed pretty decent. The Divas all seemed to live up to that moniker minus Katie and Eve who both seemed nice and down to earth.

All in all it was a hell of a night! the ten year old mark in me was bouncing around like I fed it cups of sugar!

Thanks for that, glad you had fun

[Mozenrath]

Glad you had a good time man.

[Chiral]

Cool report! Interesting to read about DX and Vince stuff

[MasonK565]

Dude that is awesome, glad you had a great time!

[Soultastic]

Awesome. Glad you had a blast.

Quick question: the Brooklyn Brawler is still employed by the E? I thought they let him go years ago.

He's had some desk job or something for years. He's probably not a paid wrestler, though, anymore. I remember he apparently played some role in Cena's WWE.com content, like being a filter when Cena swore.

Oh, ok then. Thanks.

Brawler seemed to be playing the part I have always thought of when someone mentioned road agents...Like Kidman and IRS (who was also there). He was shuffling back and forth making sure the talent got to where they need to be. He seriously looks like he could still kick your ass. Great shape for his age.

That's great. I'm glad he still works there.

[Woooooolhouse!]

There's no way this is true. You said Jamie Noble was there; we all saw him retire forever. Duh!

[Stephanie McMahon Fan]

That's so cool!!

Did you take pictures?

Did you See Stephanie?

[Deleted]

did you take pictures of you seeing stephanie?

[Cranjis McBasketball]

That's awesome, man.

Back whenever the hell they just did Raw in Calgary, they had a house show here, if I had been working at the right rink I would have helped with the set-up and all. A few co-workers did....apparently the wrestlers were quite messy in the dressing room.

That's really all the info I got.

[PKO]

What work were you doing there?

I've been near front row at a couple shows and most the guys look huge, Cena looks like a monster. I've always thought the diva's (while slim) look healthy, especially Melina and Alicia Fox who's bodies look like they were sculpted by God himself.

[Chuckie Finster]

I must say, if I was a wrestler, I would want to sit in on the writers meeting. Be proactive, learn more and offer input

Unless there's a rule against it, I don't see why more wrestlers take a part in it, even if they don't say anything.

[B.B.M]

I'm sorry If I come off as a idiot, but do you have any proof?

That guy! He's that guy! SHUUUUUUUN!

Frankly, I agree with you, but eh. He's not saying anything outlandish, and odds are any proof he would have is the kind of stuff that would be liable to get him fired from doing this work, or get him blocked from doing it in the future, since there may be some confidentiality agreement.

If he like said he slipped backstage and had his way with Maryse, then it'd be an obvious case of BS. I guess unless he's secretly The Miz. I know how to check for that, though.

So... Maverick... are you the Miz? And are you awesome?

One of my dad's friends did security at the old Aud here in Buffalo back in the day and met almost everyone (including Hogan) when they came to town.

While proof like seeing pictures would just be cool to look at, it's not like it's impossible to have a job where you are backstage in wrestling, sports, concerts, etc...

But very cool nonetheless! Cena is one person I would love to see up close because of how big he is. I believe the Jamie Knoble thing. I think Jericho is only 5'10 and Knoble must be two inches or so shorter than him.
