Seriously when are they going to retire the most ridiculously overused and obviously fake sound effect in the history of pro wrestling, namely the hairdryer cheer that we hear EVERY Smackdown, and that we heard on multiple occasions at Raw? If you know it to spot it, it is singly one of the most irritating sounds in the world, just because you know it's not what the actual crowd reaction at the event was.
The crowd is going to pop for Rey Mysterio anyway, he's one of the most popular wrestlers on the roster, so why was it used a bunch of times during his entrance? I would advocate not using fake heat at all, but wouldn't that be too radical? It's not as if their most successful show is the LIVE one they air on Monday nights.
Anyone else notice?

I've never noticed, to be honest.
But once I can figure out what it sounds like, I'll be hearing it all the time.

Can anyone point to where it is included in a clip on the WWE youtube channel?

Isn't there a compilation of its use on various Smackdowns? It may not be on the WWE's official Youtube channel but the search bar may provide some results.

You would think that they could use a few different ones to mix it up a bit.

Yeah, just search for "smackdown dubbed pops" on YouTube. I swear that sound is like the Wilhelm scream of professional wrestling. Tremendous. Off topic there should be a heel with a crony that dubs pops for him during live shows, I think that there is much potential for hilarity. |

I find it hilarious at this point.
The heel ones are my favourite. Just sounds like a 'EEEE EEE!!' like weird crickets or something, lol.

The seagull pop is a staple of WWE programming. I can't imagine the WWE without it.

I just wish they'd give us the legit crowd reactions for Smackdown...
I'd like to see how over some of these guys really are...

Face Michelle McCool would have never gotten a pop at all back in 2007-2008 if it wasn't for the seagull pop!
She was the queen of the seagull pop during her face run.

Hairdryer pop is a much better name for it than seagull pop. Never heard a seagull make that noise...

I know I've heard this same crowd effect over and over and I'm so glad there's a name for it. Now I wish someone could track down the original crowd it was recorded from. >_>
