WWE Top 10 - Hostile Crowd Reactions

[Nr1Humanoid]

Bryan eliminated should be number one for just how prolonged it was. The boos lasted, what, an hour, with tiny breaks?

How is Reigns's appearance on the Raw after Wrestlemania not on the list? WWE sent him out there for just that reaction. Why ignore it now?

Traditional fans only.

But #1 featured Cena versus the ECW Mutants.

Man, nobody in the Women's Division will ever top Vickie's nuclear heat. Not even Steph comes close

[King Boo]

I hate that they make the Rumble '15 reaction only about Bryan.

The fact that they (and others) constantly try to change the narrative on that is bs.

I can't stand it. It was so hard to watch around then when they put their thumbs in their ears about Reigns and everything else wrong with that Rumble and tried to turn the Bryan fans heel in the narrative. Absolutely insulting.

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if they even now think the Reigns backlash is entirely over Bryan and for no other reason. This is the same company who thought post-Mania 30 people would boo Bryan for having a hot wife.

Despite the circumstances, MITB 2011 should be on the list.

WWE can eat a dick.

And yet you watch their shows every week.

[Allie Kitsune]

Rey Mysterio at 30 in the "No Daniel Bryan" Rumble could have made it, too.

Gee. Very original response there to criticism of a wrestling topic. You've truly changed the game about how I think about things.

Yeah, as someone who had to watch that thing in a bar live, I remember DISTINCTLY cheering and hearing cheers for the following people;

Ryback
Dolph Ziggler (Biggest pop of the night outside Bryan)
Dean Ambrose
Damien Mizdow
Kofi Kingston
Rusev (WE WANT RUSEV)
Cody Rhodes
The Rock (before he was revealed to be helping Reigns)
And probably a couple more I can't think of

The top 4 were some of the most over and cheered that entire Rumble...all were either taken out or dumped seconds into entering the match.

They dumped on the entire upper midcard, even Bray Wyatt (who was already planned to face THE UNDERTAKER at WRESTLEMANIA), just to build up one man, a man who WASN'T MADE TO LOOK GOOD IN VICTORY IN THAT MATCH. In any other match, it would be a failure. In the Royal Rumble, it was a downright disaster.

The spinning of the narrative not only ignores the people I mentioned being liked or loved by the audience, it also ignores their own failures of making those men stars (besides The Rock) when the audience was ready for it

Sure, some went on to not be great or proving why the company had no faith in them long term, but that isn't an excuse for the crowd's reaction being ignored there and then.

needs more Roman, Big Show vs Batista at WWECW

There's a difference between the way Cena played heel in that match and the way they troll day-after-Wrestlemania fans with Reigns now. They could separate ECW fans from their own fans in a clear way, which let them loosen up and actually have fun with it (Cena looked like he was having the time of his life during that match). The ECW fans weren't bad for disliking Cena; they were easy for the company to see as different people. It was just a show where Cena was the bad guy.

The Reigns stuff, besides not being nearly as convincing, is different. They do that solely so they can brag that they worked the fans who think they're so smart. It makes no sense in any kind of larger narrative.

I feel like Cena at MITB 2011 should be no 2.

That crowd wasn't as much anti-Cena as it was pro-Punk.

[feartear]

Speaking of Vickie Guerrero, that time at Judgment Day 2008 (when Undertaker won via count-out but didn't win the title) was a masterpiece. Vickie couldn't even talk for like 2 o 3 minutes because of the boos at her.

This woman deserves to be in the Hall of Fame for being the most genuinely hated heel of the modern era.

[Citizen Snips]

Reigns aside, the thing I hate about these lists is that everything has to be from the last 10 years or so, with a token old one thrown in. Owen Hart gets booed out of the city of Providence for kicking Bret's leg out of his leg? Nope. Crowd throws half the city dump at Hogan when he joins the nWo? Never happened. Honky Tonk Man shoves Miss Elizabeth to the ground before breaking a guitar over Macho Man's head? Shaddup.

Reigns should have made the list for sure, but I wouldn't argue #1.

Yeah Roman's reaction the night after beating Undertaker was almost identical to the Rick Rude Superbrawl one that is on the list.

That's what that reaction reminded of.

I mean if Bryan had lasted long until the end, I don't think it would have been THAT bad. My view is the fans try to downplay the Bryan factor into the Rumble 15 backlash as much as the WWE denies Reigns hate.
