    I just got back from the Mexico City Raw brand house show. It was a not a sell out, but a good sized crowd considering CMLL was running a pretty big show in town tonight too. The crowd was into nearly every match and the wrestlers seemed appreciative. Here are the quick match results.

    1. Super Crazy over Paul Burchill and Katie Lea. Nice pop for Crazy and good to see him pick up a win.

    2. Trevor Murdoch over Charlie Haas.

    3. Mickie James over Beth Phoenix to retain the womens title in a solid match.

    4. Hardcore Holly and Cody Rhodes over Santino and Carlito and Kendrick and London to retain the tag titles. Santino and Carlito worked the crowd hard (first in Italian and then in Spanish) before the match with Carlito explaining several times that he was an American. This got them good heal heat throughout the match. Kendrick and London were barely involved with Kendrick never even getting tagged in.

    5. Mr. Kennedy over Lance Cade with guest ref Mick Foley. Senor Kennedy...Kennedy worked the mic in Spanish before the match and the crowd went crazy. Foley pulled out Mr. Socko for the Mandible Claw after the match.

    6. Shawn Michaels over Chris Jericho in an apparently non-title match. Not quite as well worked of a match as their PPV outing, but still solid.

    7. John Cena and Jeff Hardy over JBL and Snitsky. Huge pop for Cena. Snitsky looked like he may have been hurt after the FU and Swanton. He rolled out of the ring, but just laid at ringside until after Cena and Hardy finished celebrating/posing and then was helped out while the lights were lowered in between matches. Not sure if it was legit or if he was selling the beating.

    8. HHH over Umaga to retain the WWE title.

    Overall a decent show. I'd love to see them come back with a PPV or TV taping sometime soon.
