I wish they would start chanting for guys on the current roster and try to get them over. Would a ZACK RYDER chant be so hard?

People can chant what they want, they paid their money.
That being said, I find the show much more enjoyable when the crowd plays along with the script. Cheers faces, boos heels etc. I'll take a super hot, marky crowd over a "clever" crowd that only wakes up for Punk, Bryan or whatever lame references they thought up this week any day. I kind of wonder why people pay good money to not pay attention to the product.

Well, it's better than "boring" chants.

The crowds these days are brilliant, I love all the random chants, it's so much better than a few years ago when the crowds were just dead. This is part of the reason the wwe is so much better these days, the crowds are reacting and the wrestlers with the biggest reaction are getting the biggest push, generally!

It will be declared a brilliant commentary on how the fans won't stand for the manufactured crap WWE shovels at them until some smark workrate darling gets heckled, at which point it will become this horrible travesty that dumb hicks use to get themselves over.
Actually, I think this is exactly what's already happened.

I'd appreciate chants for Kwang and The Missing Link.

It happened during a Ziggler vs Jericho match in April and people justified it by saying that their match wasn't as good as their previous matches.

Taber Corn was the best random chant. Since only myself and probably SuperSweet have any idea what the hell they mean.

I wish they would start chanting for guys on the current roster and try to get them over. Would a ZACK RYDER chant be so hard? We Want Ryder used to be the go to chant during the boring section of the shows, but then we got Ryder. The problem with the random chants is that every crowd wants to do it, and they seemingly miss the point of why the New Jersey audience did it in the first place. Sheamus vs. Orton was a stale match between two stale babyfaces that had been shoehorned into main events for the past few years despite more over acts being present, and it didn't help that the storyline accidentally made the heel Big Show into the sympathetic one. Since the story and match sucked, they chanted for everyone but the guys in the ring to prove a point. When there's an unremarkable, but inoffensive Curtis Axel vs. R-Truth match going on, chanting for Randy Savage and JBL doesn't quite have the same impact to it, especially when they actually go along with chanting WHAT'S UP as well, which Jersey would have never done.

It's pretty annoying to me most of the time, and I also dislike the high and mighty people who are like "WHAT, YOU HATE FUN? YOU DON'T LIKE HEARING THE FUN CHANTS WHILE YOU'RE TRYING TO WATCH A MATCH? WHAT A LOSER, WHAT A FUN-HATING LOSER." I can't explain it, but this post cracked me up something fierce. Well played sir. Yeah, they're having fun, I get it. I don't even think it's done out of malice, it's become something of a tradition at Raw these days. Doesn't mean I can't find the chants annoying though, especially if it's during something involving wrestlers I like. That's not being hypocritical or fun-hating, it's being honest and human.

I'm a big fan of both and remember thinking the match was not good, and that they had much better ones before. If they were having a great match maybe the chants don't happen, it's hard to say what triggers them. Though Smilin' Curtis Axel seems to be a common denominator these days, sadly.

As long as they're not chanting racial slurs or anything like that, I'm all for chanting whatever you want.

I just hate how unoriginal it all is. Ha ha, JBL chants. Haven't heard that in at least a week. How witty of you. Well done. Go YOU.

Some people would really hate going to an English football match as many chants and songs appear to have f*** all to do with anything (at least on paper), others are directed at other fans, stewards, the size of the stadium, mascots, old players etc. It's not usually meant to be disrespectful to the players it's just having fun.
That said I think some of the crowds lately have broken out the random chanting too quickly and once they've started give the impression they wouldn't stop for anything, if Foley got thrown of the cell in front of them they'd chant for the commentators then the announce table, then Terry Funk.

Have the fans ever chanted for Mr. Perfect during a Curtis Axel match? I would. In hopes that it would invoke his spirit and fill his son with his personality and talent. Last time he tried that, He missed and hit Dolph Ziggler.
