Here’s a live recap of what happened off-air from last night’s WWE RAW and ECW tapings from the Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Missouri:
— The arena was mostly full with some sections tarped off.
— Mark Henry (w/Tony Atlas) defeated DJ Gabriel (w/Alicia Fox) in a dark match prior to last night’s ECW tapings from St. Louis. It was a short match that ended with Henry hitting the World’s Strongest Slam and scoring the pinfall.
— After the ECW tapings and before RAW went on the air, Joey Styles was shown interviewing Randy Orton on the Titantron. Styles asks Orton how it feels to return to his hometown of St. Louis to be with his family and friends. Orton corrected Styles by saying he has no friends and doesn’t care about St. Louis due to the high crime rate and the suffering economy there.
— World Heavyweight Champion John Cena defeated Randy Orton to retain the World Heavyweight championship in a dark match held after RAW went off the air. Orton dominated most of the match but Cena hit the Attitude Adjuster out of nowhere for the win.
