Turns out Beth wasn't on RAW, despite it being in Buffalo, because WWE didn't want her getting big face pops, as they're trying to make her a monster heel. Personally, I'd rather she'd have got any sort of reaction at all, and it still would have been better than the silence Candice got in Milwaukee.

Well...that's stupid.
Taking heels off of shows in their hometowns is a stupid way to protect their heelishness.

Was that the confirmed reason as to why she wasn't there?

Sounds a little suspect to me. I am a Beth fan, but her popularity isn't exactly off the charts. |

Just anounce she is the kicker that cost the Bills the Superbowl and watch her pop evolve into heat

Hmmm... I am not too familiar with that site, but it just seems off to me. It's not like Ric Flair was heel and they kept him off TV in Charlotte or something. I think Beth may have gotten a few more cheers in her hometown, but nothing too significant... |

I don't think the same applies to established heels, where they let Edge wrestle in Toronto and Orton in St Louis. They probably have the stupid impression that if fans hear Beth being cheered in Buffalo, they'll cheer her in other places, which isn't the case.

I still remember that in 2004 or so when WWE was in Montreal, La Resistance were getting cheered as babyfaces. I even remember a "Let's Go Sylvain" chant. Bizarro World! |

I enjoy when the crowd goes against the wishes of the WWF- like the Brock v Rock match or Brock v Goldberg
Edge and La Resistance in Canada,etc..
good times

Actually, a heel with the reverse Chilly Willy gimmick would be great... "From anywhere but this dump of a town/city... Johnny T. Bastard!" Actually... Johnny T. Bastard would be an awesome gimmick anyways. |

I like that last example - when Christian announced at WMX8 that he had moved to Tampa. He still gets announced as being from Tampa in TNA.

sounds about right to me since I had a Beth sign and there were quite a few of them in the arena. There's no doubt she would have gotten a hometown reaction so it makes sense
