Analyzing all the action from WWE Live India 15/01/16
The event was a massive hitIndia has a huge fan base for wrestling. A near sell-out crowd turned out at the Indira Gandhi Stadium in New Delhi, yours truly included, for their wrestling fix. The WWE finally toured India and has, hopefully realized the amazing potential there is in the country, especially after seeing the turn out. I, for one, hope WWE continue hosting such events and come back to India very soon as I had an amazing time at the event. The launch of the WWE network in India was heavily promoted and two Indians made their in ring debuts to a deafening pop. Kishan Raftar was decent in the ring, but watching Jeet Rama lumber around like a smaller, slightly more mobile version of the Great Khali was slightly dissapointing.
#1 Kane was hugely over
On my way in, I saw a multitude of ‘Demon Kane’ and ‘Brothers of Destruction’ signs which gave me a rough idea of what to expect. The match between Wyatt and Kane was made to look better than it was due to an insanely excited and hot crowd. Throughout the Bray Wyatt beating on Kane segment, the crowd booed him mercilessly and cheered at every sign of a comeback.
The ‘Spiderwalk-Sit up’ sequence drew what was arguably the single most deafening pop in the first half of the show. Kane kicked out of the ura nage slam and put Wyatt away with a chokeslam, drawing huge cheers from the crowd who were ecstatic with the veteran’s win.
