Grody to the Max.

They are going full Impact Zone. Never go full Impact Zone.

[StuntGranny®]

Yeah, I hate that shit. Chants like that is a big reason I can't watch a lot of independent stuff.

[Lance Uppercut]

Man, I thought they couldn't get more douchey than "This is wrestling! (clap clap clap)"

[wcc2]

I thought that was a little douchey, but the NXT crowd retains my respect for booing the guys that tried to start 'CM PUNK!' chants and also the 'We want KENTA!' chants. So I kind of let them have that one.

[Mid-Carder]

Always makes me laugh. Some people seem to think that by calling themselves NXT fans they're fans of some indie promotion, rather than a WWE-owned developmental programme.

eh, they're fans of this version of WWE.

[CH Punk]

That was "pouring lye down my ears" levels of cringe.

[N E O G E O B O Y S]

That chant is cringe worthy, but since they stop the cm punk and kenta chants like wcc2 said, they are tolerable.

That's because NXT effectively has become an alternative promotion, due to it being so distinct and seperate from the usual WWE circus. Rather than mockery or criticism of the NXT crowd, the more pertinent question is why it is different. It's precisely because it eschews the comedy variety chaotic illogical bullshit that bogs down the main roster. It's ironic that the alternative to WWE which TNA should have been, has actually come about from within WWE itself.

[2 Cold Scorkum]

pretty embarrassing

[Deleted]

Yeah, I couldn't help but roll my eyes at that one. You're chanting about your own actions, which is far beyond my understanding. Just chant "WE ARE CHANTING" (clapclapclapclapclap) and jump the shark in style.

[Evil Homer]

this is awesome chant is over used both on nxt and the main roster , the one time it was truly fitting was at WM 30 with the 3 legends in the ring

I loved on the LAW last night when a caller who disagreed with their take that Charlotte/Natalya was better than Charlotte/Sasha and asked "Did that match get "This is wrestling" chants?"

[Raskovnik]

Shit like this is why I'm hard on the NXT crowd. Their "cute" chants just make me f***ing groan.

How I described it as well. That and the Peter Griffen knee chant are so Impact Zone that it brings down shows to me.

They are starting buying into their own hype like when they were Impact Zoners. Time for folks who didn't watch TNA during their heyday to experience the "joy".

[lockedontarget]

The chant is fine and I will never understand why some smarks get so huffy when fans have fun in a way that isn't some specific "correct" way.

Like oh no, the fans were chanting their appreciation for the thing they were seeing. How awful that they are acknowledging that the show is enjoyable. Its the worst.

[Mister Pigwell]

I love chants.
I dig the excitement.
