THE JEFF HARDY CELEBRATION YOU DIDN'T SEE ON PPV AND MORE: LIVE NOTES FROM THE ARMAGEDDON PPV

Just got back from HSBC Arena for the PPV. Thankfully; for us in Buffalo, this PPV was much better than the last one we had...the embarrassingly Great American Bash.
The arena was about 95% or more full and it was a hot lively crowd.

Here are some thoughts & observations:

-They kept people waiting before they opened the gates. The dark match started and still a lot of people were not in. I don't know why they delayed letting people in, but many were upset about missing the dark match.

-Jim Ross & Jerry Lawler got huge pops coming out. No one cared about Michael Cole.

-The set was cool in person and the pyro all night was loud and great.

-Everyone enjoyed the Batista/Orton match. The crowd was really into Batista. He sold like crazy.

-One of the biggest pops was Mae Young. People went crazy for her!

-Grumblings in the crowd about the recaps instead of matches

-During the BORING JBL segment there was a large "Joey punked you" chant. (The heat on JBL was X-Pac heat.) Vince needs to wake up on this one. Many people left their seats on this one.

-The crowd was 80% for Cena. This was an awesome match.

-The pop for Jeff Hardy winning was amazing...everyone was standing during the final moments. After the show ended, Jeff stood at the top of the ramp for a long time. Matt Hardy came out form behind and grabbed Jeff. They went back to the ring and celebrated together for about 10 minutes. The crowd that stayed went crazy for it. HHH came back into the ring and stared at Jeff for a moment and then shook his hand and hugged him, raising his hand in victory. HHH left the ring and Matt & Jeff kept posing for the cameras and celebrating.

-Lillian (who looked hot and sang the best I have ever heard) thanked us for coming. No future dates announced for Buffalo though.

Thanks for this.

Well it's nice to see Matt did come out to celebrate with Jeff. Because I thought he should of when it was still airing. It was also nice to see Triple H come out and show some respect. Great job to Jeff winning the title.
