I see Del Rio signs in the crowd.

They were bound to be a few of them since this is is home country but the fans are strongly behind Cena in this mainevent.

Great stuff over 150 posts. That was the expectation mark this week.

Only 4 have read this thread, not too bad.

This crowd thinks this is a Pay-Per-View.

Are they chanting "Jim Ross"? If so that is pretty impressive.

It is a decent result for the number of members that viewed this thread, normally at least a dozen view it.

I think that if we can get it to 200 posts that will be fantastic.

Nice suplex by Del Rio. Don't see him doing that move very often.

I do agree on the crowd. Give them a lot of credit this has not been a good show but they are cheering like it's WM.

I feel bad for them that this is what they were given for the first ever taped show in Mexico. Hopefully next time WWE give them a good show because with this crowd reaction they certainly deserve another taping next year.

It is going to depend on travel costs and gates but I would think with a crowd like this, this could become a yearly thing easily.

I remember reading that Mexico was one of the best areas for WWE right now as the demand is still really high there. Like you said it would depend on the costs but the arena looks very full and I am sure they bought lots of merchandise. I see this becoming a yearly thing like the UK tapings. They need to do Australia next, they could easily pack out huge stadiums here and the crowd would be incredibly loud.

Rod Laver hit 16,000 this year for the house show.

Live Taping would go to like 30,000 easily.

Cena and JR get the win after Del Rio tags in Cole to stop the punishment.

I am sure that they will pick a really big arena, not quite Etihad Stadium but something around the 30k range would be good.

I assume that this title match will be a Last Man Standing match.

Cena is now attacking Del Rio with the steel steps.
