WWE News: Pyrotechnics strikes fan in upper deck at the end of WrestleMania, "distressing" says eyewitness Mar 31, 2008 - 12:37:29 AM
We don't have a lot of details yet, but PWTorch.com reader Roy De Giorgia of Sydney, Australia attended WrestleMania in person and notes that a fan was hit by pyrotechnics at the end of the show. He said it was "distressing." EMTs were called to the scene.
Other live observations from De Giorgio:
-The pyrotechnic were simply amazing!
-Taker's leap from the squared circle to Edge below was a sight to behold live!
-One hiccup was the power outage during the Playboy Bunnymania Lumberjack match which left the divas wrestling in the dark.
-Also, all of the stage and audience monitors losing power during the Triple Threat Match left everyone booing.
-Best Match: Ric Flair vs. HBK. Monumental describes it - 74,000 people of their feet ohhing and ahhing.
-Worst Match: Batista versus Umaga. Absolutely no chemistry at all, and in the end everyone was cheering for Umaga.
If anyone else who attended in person is willing to send live observations, we'll print more HOLT reports on off-camera happenings as they come in. Thanks!
