WWE Raw TV taping report
April 21, 2014
Baltimore, Md.
Report by VIP member Ideen Barimani of Abingdon, Md.

- After Raw went off the air, Bray Wyatt was upset that they cut his mic off and challenged anyone in the back to face the Wyatts, as no one can beat them. The Shield came out to a monster pop. They cleaned house on the Wyatts while John Cena sold and eventually walked away.

As the Wyatts walked away, Dean Ambrose threw a chair into the ring for no reason, which was hilarious. Seth Rollins posed in multiple parts of the ring and on the announce table, to huge pops.

For the first time I can recall, all three Shield members shook hands with the crowd at ringside. Even Ambrose in a heelish/kooky way was slapping fans's hands. It felt strange, albeit this was off air. They also knocked over the Wyatt's chair that was still in aisle. No dark match.

- Based on my crowd perception...

Best Babyface Reactions:

(1) Daniel Bryan

(5) Rob Van Dam
(6) The Wyatts
(7) The Usos
(8) Paige's submission

Most Heel Heat :

(1) Paul Heyman
(2) Stephanie McMahon/Kane
(3) The Wyatts
(4) Evolution
(5) Sheamus
(6) John Cena
(7) Cesaro (the crowd seemed torn)

Names are repeated in both categories on purpose.

- I saw certain people leave the arena at the end of the show. From what I recall :

Mark Henry, Roman Reigns, Zeb Coulter, Tony Chimel, Leyla, Xavier Woods, Booker T, Bray Wyatt all drove solo.

Erik Rowan drove a car with Damien Sandow in shotgun.

Renee Young drove a car with someone in the passenger seat, but we couldn't tell who.

Alex Riley walked off with someone we didn't recognize.

Ranjin Singh walked off on his own.

Emma drove a car with Paige as a passenger.

Alexander Rusev drove a car with Lana as passenger.

Rosa Mendes drove a car with Natalya as passenger.

Xavier Woods drove a car with someone we didn't recognize.

Most of the talent waved. Natalya and Rosa seemed most engaged with the crowd.

The one that stood out was Sheamus. He was a passenger in a car and he stopped on the side of the road to say hi to a mom and her young son who were waving at him. Little things like that go a long way and Sheamus seems like a class guy.
