Thanks to our sister site’s XHeadlines reader Michael Ferrugia for the following Live Report from the Springfield, MO SmackDown! House Show:
I just got back from the SmackDown Live show in Springfield, Mo. [Here are] the results of the Poplar Bluff, Mo. show that happened last night and the results of our show are exactly the same. You were right about the house show being more fun. The wrestlers could really take the time to build the excitement and reaction from the crowd before continuing with the matches. It was great. I will note that before the event started, the announcer made the statement that Triple H would not be at the event (they have been showing commercials announcing a Triple H match here for the event for over a month) and that if you wanted a refund you could have one as long as you requested it before the end of the first match. I didn’t notice anyone leaving. Thanks again for the info on the show. We will look forward to any house show that comes our way in the future.
