If you don't remember, YouTube search WWE Lafayette, LA. It was Feb. 18 2019 to be exact, where Gargano, Ciampa, Aleister Black and Ricochet debuted on the main roster to a deadpan reaction. Well, I've been in the Cajundome on many occasions, and throughout many years they have always had either a TV Raw or Smackdown whenever WWE would make the annual southern loop. But as of two weeks ago, Lafayette got demoted to a house show venue. Not only did WWE decide to run a house show instead of TV in Lafayette, but they ran a house show opposite to live Friday Night Smackdown. Is this just a coincidence, or you think Vince was like, screw it "Lafayette will now just be a house show town"?

I still can't believe WWE produced their own video making fun of their own audience. Their level of contempt for their paying fans is unheard of.

Remember the guy who cheered like he just won the lottery when Roman had something happen to him? WWE edited the footage to a different shot of the same guy reacting like he just heard his entire family was dead. Like, if they just pulled the guy out of the shot, I'd get it, but to actually sit there and find footage of him reacting "correctly" and then sticking that in is absurd. Now you know why they missed Edge's spear. |

Lafayette weren't responsible for the "You suck Cena! You suck Uso!" chants directed at Nicki and Naomi, so they couldn't possibly be the worst crowd to begin with.

I really don't know how on earth WWE expected anything differently. They were in a non-smark city and introduced these people who'd be unknowns to the general public with the lead in of a lengthy video package. It was pretty much the exact right combination to kill the crowd.

I don't think fans are blameless, noble creatures who can't ever get razzed, but if you're just shitting on them for not gobbling it up when you put zero effort into debuting talent, I don't know what the goal is. You're the one who ultimately has to deal with it.
It's like resenting being at someone's boring dinner party, so you shit your pants, then feel like a genius while you stew in it. "Look at them, they have to smell it"

"Look at them, they have to smell it" Yeah, as mentioned, they werenât the crowd that basically slut shamed the entire womenâs division but oh no, they werenât going to bash the night after WrestleMania crowd (even though they basically set the precedence of that stuff). Instead they bash the crowd who are apathetic which...well, thatâs most WWE crowds, why were Lafayette called out on it? |

I can believe it, but only because I have such dim view of the company and their ability to not have open, blatant resent and contempt for their paying customers if they don't also stroke the boss's ego. |

I thought we wouldn't have gotten another RAW after we (not me) threw trash in the ring and someone hit Hebner.

Just seemed like people online blaming the crowd because they were pissed that their NXT darlings got no reaction having cold matches on the main show with no real introduction and/or reason for them to care. đ€·đ»ââïž

Canada is 'Bizarro World', Chicago is neckbeard city, Lafayette is grilled on YouTube, etc.. the only fans who are faces in the WWE Universe are the crowds in Saudi Arabia. |
