It was very electric. Roman had more boos than Cena for sure.<\/p>\n<p>-Okay, so that Pelvis Wesley segment was cringe worthy in my view. Was that even on TV? It seems like a commercial break shenanigan. Awful crowd pandering.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-1812950668\" 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>-The crowd as utterly confused by the Emma victory and what proceeded after. Pure silence. Awkward.<\/p>\n<p>-The Women&#8217;s Title match was kind of quiet other than a few dueling chants. The crowd got more into it near the end and the crowed popped big for Nia Jax turning on Bliss.<\/p>\n<p>BIGGEST POPS: Finn Balor, Roman-Cena<\/p>\n<p>LEAST HEAT: Emma&#8217;s victory.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DARK MATCH<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>(1) Finn Balor beat Bray Wyatt.<\/p>\n<p><strong>OTHER NOTES:<\/strong> WWE advertised Samoa Joe vs. John Cena and Roman Reigns vs. Braun Strowman during prominent TV and radio advertising to help sell tickets to the event. Neither match took place. Samoa Joe is reportedly out with a knee injury, as reported earlier. WWE did not acknowledge the major change in the advertised line-up with the crowd, and instead they were given a completely different main event.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>NOW CHECK OUT THIS RECENT REPORT:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2017\/08\/29\/news-samoa-joe-xavier-woods-injured-rosemary-speaks-sexy-star-taking-liberties-ring-impact-viewership\/\">Samoa Joe injured, Xavier carried to back, Rosemary speaks out against Sexy Star taking liberties with her in ring, Impact viewership<\/a><\/p><div id=\"pwtor-2660889793\" class=\"pwtor-content-1 pwtor-entity-placement\"><!-- Tag ID: pwtorchcom_test_300x600 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __300x600\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-3668498940\"><div id=\"pwtor-4084421265\"><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 MONDAY NIGHT RAW HOLT REPORT AUGUST 29, 2017 MEMPHIS, TENN.
