Some other, more in depth notes:

- Icarus was actually being cheered by the end of the match, somewhat. Icarus was given the hot tag from Dunkerton, and at one point I actually started a "This is awkward!" chant because we wanted to cheer against Jigsaw and The Shard, but then again that meant cheering for Icarus.

- Archibald Peck's "brand new move": - The mics were cursed. It started before the first match when Gavin was playing a song for us, and the mic fell off the stand into his lap twice. Then Icarus did his flip into the ring catching the water bottle thing, and he landed on the cord and unplugged it. Then Waltman wanted the mic after his match and nobody could find it. When they found it, we cheered. I almost started a "Botchamania!" chant a few times.

- The Colony Extreme Force is AWESOME. Soldier Ant was embarrassed of them, but everyone loved it. Arctic Rescue Ant was especially over. We started a "Merchandise!" chant, and Solder Ant looked back at me and the guy next to me who started it, and he made a cash gesture with his fingers. Hilarious.

- Hammermeir didn't do his own entrance and it made me sad. He also shaved his head (maybe he's been that way but I don't know).

- Kingston was being booed by the end of the match and acted more like a heel throughout his match with Kong, throwing chairs and yelling at the camera (and angrily looking at fans). Lots of "Green Ant" chants.

- Crowd throughout the night was AMAZING. I hope it gets picked up on the DVD. I can't wait to watch it.
