1/22 WWE Results: Las Cruces, New Mexico
Adrian Telas sent this report in.
The show was not a sellout, alot of empty seats in upper part of Pan American Center, nothing like the two past sellouts at the El Paso Coliseum.
-Sheamus defeated Santino Marella, Primo, Epico, Mason Ryan, Kofi Kingston, JTG, David Otunga, Alex Riley, Drew McIntrye for a title shot against Cody Rhodes
-Sheamus defeated Cody Rhodes via DQ
-R-Truth defeated Jack Swagger with Vickie Guerrero for the U.S. Championship (David Otunga came out and said the match was a non-title match and R-Truth needed to give the title back)(A few Eddie Guerrero chants as we are in Guerrero Country)
-Kelly Kelly and Eve Torres defeated Beth Phoenix and Natalya with Brie Bella as the special guest ref.
-Wade Barrett came out to cut a promo on how he hurt Randy Orton and how he will win the 2012 Royal Rumble, Ted DiBiase comes out for a match but stays on top of the new entrance ramp( which is Awesome) and out comes Randy Orton for a beat down.
-Big Show defeated Daniel Bryan for the WWE World Heavyweight Title via DQ with interference by David Otunga and Drew McIntrye
-John Cena defeated Kane via DQ with a chairshot by Kane

Overrall great show seeing all the superstars even though it wasn’t a sellout and the entrance ramp is awesome giving the show a better feel. I had the chance to get Ted DiBiase autograph and saw his injured hand was in a brace and asked how he felt and he said he would be ok, didn’t wana give full details.
I really think its time to give the El Paso Las Cruces area a live Raw or Smackdown taping or even a true experience of SummerSlam at the Sun Bowl that seats 54,000+ just in stadium seats, I hope some WWE executive reads this. Till next time keep up the great work.
