3/11 RAW BRAND RESULTS FROM BUFFALO, NY

By Dave M. on 2012-03-11 21:09:30
First Niagara Center was almost to capacity. Top section was empty. The crowd was hot for everything! Even hotter than a TV taping. Matches were almost identical the house shows of the past few days.

The started off with the RAW opening. It was nice and made the house show seem like an important event.

-We were welcomed by Justin Roberts

-Santino Marella pinned Jack Swagger after a Cobra to retain the US Title. Santino was way over with the crowd.

-Ryback defeated JTG via pinfall

-The Bella Twins defeated Eve & Kelly Kelly via pinfall. Towards the end of the match Eve walked out on Kelly Kelly causing the loss

-MIZ PROMO: who runs down Buffalo and the crowd. (Note to Miz: When you heel the restaurant Buffalo Wild Wings, we the people of Buffalo will AGREE with you! Their wings suck when compared to Anchor Bar & Duffs. We know our wings and there’s a reason we don’t like Buffalo Wild Wings chain) R-Truth came out and ran down the Miz for his breathe and stupidity. Great back and forth match with R-Truth defeated The Miz via pinfall

-Chris Jericho defeated Kofi Kingston via pinfall (Codebreaker)

INTERMISSION

-JOHN CENA VIDEO PROMO: Cena promotes his match at WrestleMania and promotes his match for tonight: a last man standing match against Kane.

-Primo and Epico with Rosa defeated Alex Riley and Mason Ryan to retain the Tag Team Titles (backstabber to Mason Ryan) Riley took most of the abuse in the match. He made the hot tag to Mason who suplexed both Primo & Epico in a great power move. Riley & Mason were way over with the crowd.

-John Cena defeated Kane last man standing match. Kane put Cena through a table in the corner of the ring and Cena ended up with the win by incapacitating Kane by giving him the Attitude Adjustment through another table in the middle of the ring. Cena took most of the bumps in this match.

-CM Punk defeated Dolph Ziggler to retain the WWE Title in a best 2 out of 3 falls match. Ziggler took off the corner turnbuckle-slammed Punk into it and got the first fall. Punk got the second fall after a Macho Man elbow drop from the top rope. There was a ref bump and Jericho came running down to ringside. He dropped Punk with a codebreaker and the ref made a very slow 2 count. Punk got the third fall after a kick to Jericho’s head and gave the GTS. To Ziggler.
