The entire balcony was empty, so that\u2019s about half the arena. That brings us to 9,000, but then the quarter of the lower bowl near the entrance wasn\u2019t sold, which makes about 7,000 or so seats available for sale, and of that, there were pockets of empty seats.<\/p>\n<p>Still, given WWE\u2019s most recent attendance data, this was a strong showing, especially considering who was missing (John Cena). It was a good crowd that seemed like a bad one, when it\u2019s trying to fill a cavernous 18,000-seat arena.<\/p>\n<p>(1)\u00a0The Usos beat The Club (Karl Anderson &amp; Doc Gallows).\u00a0Very good opener. The crowd really dug The Usos, who were out first for the night. Even The Club got\u00a0a good babyface reaction with the\u00a0start of the show.<\/p>\n<p>(2)\u00a0Baron Corbin beat Zack Ryder.\u00a0Short and sweet. This felt like your basic TV match.<\/p>\n<p>(3)\u00a0The Golden Truth beat\u00a0Tyler Breeze &amp; Fandango.\u00a0The live crowd, at least in the sections near our seats, were very much into Golden Truth. They picked up the win here relatively quickly.<\/p>\n<p>(4) Cesaro beat Alberto Del Rio.\u00a0This felt like a ho-hum Smackdown match, which is ironic because they had a match on this past week\u2019s episode, until about the mid-way point. The match spilled to the outside and as Del Rio tried to escape through the crowd, Cesaro chased him down and they brawled in the seating area for a hit before heading back to the ring. We don\u2019t see that a lot anymore, so it definitely received a good reaction from the crowd and they were very much buying in to the false finishes near the end of the match, including a few cross-arm breaker attempts by Del Rio that Cesaro rolled through.<\/p>\n<p>(5)\u00a0Sami Zayn beat Kevin Owens.\u00a0This was another very good match. Owens was a great heel here, even getting on the mic to turn the crowd after they were chanting for him early. This match started like any other, but got very physical.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-1144984687\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>(6)\u00a0Sasha Banks &amp; Becky Lynch &amp; Summer Rae beat Charlotte (w\/Dana Brooke)\u00a0&amp;Natalya &amp; Eva Marie in a six-woman tag match.\u00a0Sasha Banks received one of the biggest reactions of the night (she\u2019s a hometown girl). There was a \u201cyou can\u2019t wrestle\u201d chant when Eva Marie was in the ring against Summer Rae, who\u00a0actually looked good here, especially after hitting a spinning heel kick on Natalya near the finish of the match.<\/p>\n<p>(7)\u00a0U.S. champion Rusev beat Kalisto to retain\u00a0the U.S. Title.\u00a0Rusev forced Kalisto to tap out. The highlight of the match was probably when Kalisto scoop-slammed Rusev, which really brought the crowd alive. That was an impressive visual.<\/p>\n<p>(8)\u00a0WWE World Hvt. champion Dean Ambrose beat Seth Rollins to retain\u00a0the WWE World Title.\u00a0This was an excellent match that had the people buying in to the nearfalls towards the end of the match. The crowd was quiet, for the most part, in the early parts of the match and didn\u2019t invest too much in the nearfalls not expecting a title change at a house show, but by the finish rolled around, the crowd was definitely with these two guys. The match was very good, featuring not only some good wrestling but intense brawling for a live event.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">There was no traffic, so we&#39;re very early for <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WWEBoston?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#WWEBoston<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/0VDM9zm9Xd\">pic.twitter.com\/0VDM9zm9Xd<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Mike McMahon (@TorchMcMahon) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TorchMcMahon\/status\/746830220401999873?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 25, 2016<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"qme\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WWEBoston?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#WWEBoston<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/SYemKig9qX\">pic.twitter.com\/SYemKig9qX<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Mike McMahon (@TorchMcMahon) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TorchMcMahon\/status\/746852520711041024?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 25, 2016<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-737908997\"><div id=\"pwtor-3481732136\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>WWE Live Results June 25, 2016 Boston, Mass. at TD Garden Report by Mike McMahon, PWTorch contributor (@MikeMcMahonPW) Attendance: About 5,000, with the possibility of it being close to 6,000.
