WWE House Show Results from Indianapolis, Indiana 12-14-03 Submitted by Tom Guzik on Monday, December 15, 2003 at 5:44 AM EST
Thanks to Justin Kage for sending this report
Tajiri defeated Kidman via spitting the mist in his face when he was attempting a SSP, and hitting a buzzsaw kick. Okay match, but not rememorable.
Paul Heyman came out and said "Before I go all bad-guy General Manager.. I think we should appreciate the troops in Iraq for catching Saddam Hussein." A small USA chant broke out, but was interrupted by saying "While you all sat on your asses on the couch. And my boys in Atlanta are going to kick the Colts ass.", with some other heat-generating banter. Cena came out, and cut a small rap on Heyman. Only I remember is "This is Peyton Manning country.. Michael Vick is gonna get his ass kicked, 'cause for all I care, he can suck my *points the mic at the fans as they politely finish with "Dick"*". Pretty vicious rap.. poor Vick. Matt Morgan and Lesnar blindside Cena, and Benoit, Mysterio, and Holly all come out and clear the heels out. 6-man tag is set tonight.
Chuck Palumbo defeated Horshu with a pathetic, missed Super Kick. Announced Horshu was from Indianapolis. I'm just curious, did anyone else that go say he was from Indianapolis, or did they say your home town, to garner some sort of cheap-pop?
World's Greatest Tag Team defeated Spanky and London via a mean combo into a VICIOUS super kick by Shelton, as Haas bridged Spanky up. Pretty good match, was exciting most of the time. And it gets the "Match Of The Night" award. Although this one was easy, since all the following matches pretty much sucked.
Orlando Jordan defeated Johnny The Bull with an inside cradle. Boring match.
Rikishi and Scotty 2 Hotty defeated Akio and Sakoda. I walked around Conseco, so I missed the match. I saw the end, where Rikishi and Scotty started dancing with the Ring announcer. At the end, the announcer was laying in the corner, and Rikishi teased a Stinkface. But the announcer pulled himself out before he could get it.
Holly defeated Rhyno with the Alabama Slam. Okay match, Rhyno is a great worker, lots of charisma in his matches. I don't know why they don't use him more.
Bashams defeated the Guerreros. Long match, didn't really pick up or get interesting until near the end. Guerrero got rolled-up for the three.
Torrie Wilson defeated Dawn Marie, Sable, and Nidia. Segment took a ton of time, a waste.
Cena, Mysterio, and Benoit defeated Brock, Big Show, and Morgan. The match took FOREVER to start, as all men were taunting each other for a long time. Cena threatened Big Show with a chair, Show took the mic and said "Cena, I'm gonna sue you. I'm gonna sue you for threatning me with that chair." Cena gave Big Show the F-U. After the match, Cena gets on the mic. "Hey, I don't know if any of you know this but the Colts are killing the Falcons, like 38-7." to a good response. Cena had the crowd clap-along, as Cena asked Mysterio and Benoit to rap with him. About Benoit, Cena said "I don't know if canadians can rap. I know they can wrestle, but I don't know if they can rap." Mysterio did a little rap, but I forgot most of it. Benoit took the mic, "Toothless Aggression is my obsession, (something something), the Colts straight up." Cena got the mic, and gave a rap, including "Peyton Manning offense", and "Breaks and cuts like Edgerrin James". Don't remember anything else. Cena thanked everyone for coming, and show over.
Overall, on the wrestling side, the show was pretty terrible. Long, boring matches with a bunch of no-name muscle-heads. Also, Brock Lesnar seems incredibly small in person. I had floor entrance seats, and I was taller than the guy. Even his ripped-ness looks really small for some reason. I got a Kurt Angle "You Suck" t-shirt, that has a terrorist check-list on the back, of who've we captured. The guy selling it to me said, "This is a collector's item now. You know why? On the back, Saddam's name isn't checked off."
Also, attendance was pretty small. Floor seats were sold out, but after the floor, you could just about sit anywhere you want. I'm guessing everyone was at the Colts game.
