    Report sent in by Chris Buonacquisto.

    I attended the house show in Hartford, CT last night and it was a great show!! The building was mostly full with the exception of the top sections. I was disappointed with the merchandise booths however. There was no ECW shirts, no jerseys, nothing really new. There was a lot of D-X shirts being bought and Cena merchandise was selling well too.

    Before the show, they were playing Wreckless Intent on the PA system. Also, there were several people dressed up like the Spirit Squad which was pretty funny. There was a group of 5 that was near my section and they got booed everytime they walked by.

    Match 1: Eugene v. Rob Conway
    Decent match with lots of comedy by Eugene. Conway had the upper hand for most of the match until he tried to ram Eugene into the buckle and he "Hulked Up" and hit the Legdrop but Conway kicked out. He then hit the Spine on the Pine followed by The People's Elbow and Conway kicked out again. Eugene then went for the Rock Bottom but Conway got out of it but was met with the Stunner and got the pin.
    Winner: Eugene

    Match 2: Cade and Murdoch v. The Highlanders
    Surprisingly good tag match. The Highlanders are a more updated Bushwhackers but we are quite good.
    Winners: Highlanders

    As the Highlanders were leaving, Umaga came out and pummeled them. This led to Armando...Alejandro...EEEESSSS- (crowd was saying it also and Armando got pissed and said, "Thats my name, shut up!") Then Viscera came out...

    Match 3: Umaga v. Viscera
    Mostly a squash for Umaga. He won with his DEVASTATING thumb to the throat!!
    Winner: Umaga

    Match 4: Johnny Nitro with Melina v. Carlito
    Melina was smokin!! Carlito got a huge pop!! Excellent match that went back and forth. Finish saw Melina get up on the apron, Nitro was about hit her, Carlito hit his knee backbreaker for the pin!
    Winner: Carlito


    The Classroom with Matt Striker
    Special Guest: Hacksaw Jim Duggan
    Striker told us that his guest was supposed to be Duggan but he suffered a devastating beatdown from Umaga on Monday so he wouldnt be there. He then said his replacement was one the most charismatic superstars in history...MATT STRIKER!! This led to Duggan coming out and getting the crowd to chant "Hoooooooooo!" and "USA!" for 5 minutes then he punched out Striker and gave a salute to the brave men and women in Iraq and led us in another chant for "USA!"

    Match 5: Kane v. Randy Orton
    Orton came out to "This Fire Burns" for some reason. Not everyone knew who it was, but I did of course! As soon as he walked through the curtain he was met with a pretty decent mixed reaction. Kane was WAY over!! Orton stalled for a good 5 minutes before the match because he was "scared" but the match was very good. Went back and forth for a while and Kane was about to pin him after the Chokeslam when the lights went out and the old "Kane" came out and got in the ring. The real Kane clotheslined him over the top and then Orton came up behind Kane and gave him the RKO for the pin.
    Winner: Randy Orton

    "Kane" came in and chokeslammed Kane but Kane sat up and chased "Kane" out of the building. Pretty cool segment.

    Intermission

    They announced that if you bought a Program and you found a RAW decal, you won an autographed DX shirt!!

    Coach came out to announce the next match...
    Match 6: Diva Bra and Panties Tag Match
    Mickie James and Candice Michelle v. Maria and Torie Wilson
    Very good Diva match....back and forth...Candice and Mickie won, but I think the fans would agree that we all won

    Match 7: Street Fight Grudge Match
    John Cena v. Edge (no Lita)
    Cena was OVER! Mostly girls and kids. I tried to do a versus chant...they chanted "Let's go Cena!" and I started "Lets go Edge!"...it worked, there were a few Rated R fans but mostly Cena fans. This was actually quite good because Edge had the upper hand for most of it. The surprise was when Edge hit Cena with the MIC and busted Cena open. Cena bled for most of the match. Crowd was way into it and of course, Cena won with the FU eventually.
    Winner: John Cena

    Match 8: 5 on 2 Handicap Match
    Spirit Squad v. D-Generation X
    DX was way over...the Squad is pretty funny also. HHH and HBK did the famous opening for DX..."LLLLLLLLLETS get ready to Suck it!!!" Classic! Michaels played the proverbial face in trouble for a lot of the match...HHH got the hot tag and it was a double Pedigree/Chin Music finish...crowd ate it up!!
    The DX went out into the crowd near my section and my buddy got to high-five HBK and i got to hig-five HHH...it was awesome!!

    Overall, a great house show but was bummed because there were no announcements about when they are coming back and no update on if SummerSlam is in Boston or not.
