being from Houston and biasness aside...
is it me or do the WWE announcers seem to ham it up and push the fact they are in Texas more than any other city... JR seems to mark for Texas as much as Oklahoma... and tonight Cole and JBL have mentioned they are in Texas/ Houston already 4 times and its only the first commercial break....
does anyone else notice this??
or am I just marking for WWE in my home state... much less SD in my hometown??

They should love us, we sell out arenas all over the state when they are here almost every time!
Not to mention the numerous stars our state has provided them.

Every time RAW is down here, we're guaranteed a Terry Funk appearance, usually in a special referee role

Its been so long since SD has been here in Dallas, the last time, we had an Angle vs. Benoit vs. Edge vs. Eddie match to determine who would face WWE Champion, the Big Show.
Also, Dawn Marie gave Torrie her room key, which led to the imfamous Armageddon footage. Al Wilson was in the house.
A youngster named John Cena (with B2 by his side) battle rapped Rikishi and was then choked out by Tazz.
Albert started his push by taking out Rey Mysterio's knee.
And the dark matches were full of unknowns like Shelton Benjamin, Spanky, Redd Dogg(Rodney Mack), and the great Nathan Jones.
So needless to say, its been a while. In the meantime, we've had a total of 8 Raws, Survivor Series, SNME, and a handful of house shows.

Correction: WWE loves Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio. The smaller cities (Austin, Lubbock, Corpus Christi, etc.) are lucky to get one show a year while the "Big 3" get 2, maybe 3. Oh well.
