We were chanting "we want refunds". I didn't actually want a refund but if money's on the table I want it

You're taking it way too seriously. It's another way of saying, "wow, that was dookie. What in the actual f***, WWE?" Or are we doing "the fans are wrong" again? It was Philly, of course they were. So are Chicago fans, or MSG fans, or any major market if the reaction isn't what it "was supposed to be". In all seriousness, let's not forget that the last time the fans changed "we want refunds" people called into cable companies and GOT refunds. This time, we see the whole cancel network thing trending and, according to news reports on pwinsider (grain of salt, I know), calling customer service gets you told that "we can't do manual cancellations at this time and the webpage is down, sorry".

This makes me wonder how it would've went down if the Victory Road 2011 main event had happened on a WWE PPV or at least with a WWE-sized crowd.

Now that time was dumb too, but they were mad about a screwy finish that got reversed the next night, this case is "I didn't like the end result" to which if people actually think they should get refunds for that are out of their mind in my opinion

It's more along the lines of I can understand certain reactions and others while I don't like don't surprise me, but this one I just don't can't wrap my head around and try to figure out if the crowd that night actually felt that 20 minutes of the show that they didn't like warranted a chant of that nature Yes, they did. Not really sure what's so strange about it to you? They were expressing, very clearly, that they strongly disapproved of the booking. It's also misleading to talk about "20 minutes." Time doesn't matter. What matters is, there was a result they knew was a possibility and very much didn't want to happen, and it was being played out in front of them.

First, define what you mean by ânarcissistic,â because I have VERY strong doubts to the legitimacy with which you are using the term. Perhaps you can justify how the single phrase, âWe want refundsâ perfectly illustrates at least five of the necessary criterion for such a diagnosis, but I'm thinking you simply decided to dust off your old Wheelchair Psychologist Hat and toss out a technical term which should have actually been substituted with a more appropriate saying found in common vernacular: âentitled.â Second, please specify an adequate reason (i.e., a reason not constrained by bias) why one should not request a refund when denied a requested service. You don't deserve a refund because you didn't get the result you wanted... The above does not qualify as adequate. If I happen to purchase a DVDâfor a film, let's sayâand I have all the special features, but I cannot gain access to the actual film (i.e., I have been denied what I want), I'm typically still rewarded a refund.

I don't think something like Victory Road '11 could even be possible in WWE shy of one of the competitors having a major medial emergency just as the bell rings.

Faulty argument. According to the Federal Copyright Law, once a DVD has been removed from the plastic, you cannot get a refund with piracy being the issue. You can exchange for another copy of the exact same DVD, but you cannot get a refund.

When a movie is bad, people are given the option of a refund. Same thing applies here. You don't get what you paid for (i.e. a sub par match and winner, all the while having a middle finger planted firmly in your face ) you reserve the right for a return of your funds. Simple.

"We're not happy with bad, tone deaf booking" is harder to chant

Live feedback is part of wrestling. Chanting for refunds isn't necessarily to be taken literally, but rather it's an expression that what the company offered was shit.

And why do the fans always chant 'What'? Are they really all hard of hearing? Idgi

There is always the option of going to WWE Headquarters and punching Vince McMahon in the face like Stewie did to Will Ferrell for his awful involvement in the also awful movie, Bewitched.

"We're not happy with bad, tone deaf booking" is harder to chant I'm sorry but I believe the acceptable verbiage is "Thank you for putting on the show you wanted to put on, anyone who does not respect your creative vision is a loser, the birth of the female loser's unborn child should be prevented and, after its prenatal removal, both the male and female losers should humanely be rendered incapable of bearing another." In 7/8 time (it was produced in collaboration with Rush, who firmly believe that the mid in vanilla midgets stands for midcard)
