The divas match was probably the best divas match in recent memory. Serena carried them through a great match and really had the crowd into it. April was good too.

The crowd had some dueling chants during the Tarver-Prime and Hennig-Reks-Slater matches.

The crowd was dead of large portions of tonight’s tapings

The crowd could sense a title change looming given Reks’ position on the ECW roster
