Thanks to PWInsider.com and Victoria Goodland for these off air notes from last night’s RAW:
Jericho got a great Y2J chant during the opening.
Gail Kim was fantastic and the crowd was really into her.
Sgt. Slaughter got booed pretty good during his anti-Canada rant, including an “A******” chant.
The Swagger vs Bourne was basically over before the crowd could get into it, but MVP got a huge pop.
And the Calgary Kid as The Miz, which got a pretty good reaction.
Orton/Big Show was alright, and the crowd was pretty into it until the countout.
After the MVP vs Masters match featuring Swagger they showed a great package about Jeff Hardy.
After they teased Bret Hart there was a loud, lengthy “We Want Bret” chant. Three times.
Legacy/The Swoggles got a lot of crowd reaction, both cheers and jeers.
I’m sure you could hear the “Cena Sucks” chant, and based on Cena’s expression I’m certain he did too, but then he got a pretty good crowd backing.
After the show went off the air Cena got on talking about Bret, and the crowd went pretty nuts for it. He really talked up Hart and said he was a “true competitor”. He called out Orton and asked him to come into the ring for basically a photo op. They shook hands and held their arms up until Orton started stomping on Cena. As Cena was down, Orton lined up for the punt. Cena rolled away and hit an Attitude Adjustment. Cue Cena’s music.
Lillian thanked the crowd and said goodnight.
