That's ridiculous. I saw a fist fight at a Raw in 2001. Not on the same level as what happened, but still, fans get crazy. Please tell me it was during the Invasion angle and they got into a fight over who was better between the WWF and The Alliance. It was during the invasion angle, but they were just drunks

He is and that is why he isn't here anymore. With that said, let's not give him anymore attention please. I'd recommend contacting WWE and Barclays personally. It won't take the sting out of your experience but it could help them take steps so others don't experience this in the future. I have the whole thing on video. I was recording Roman's entrance when all this went down.
What Ric said, definitely contact them both.

f***ing horrible. It's shit like this which makes me dislike wrestling fans to a degree. I remember going to a SDL show and 2 dudes were drinking beer making comments about Nattie and "opening her up with something", shit's sad. It's the type of thing you don't wanna see or hear.

Damn, that sucks. Anyone who'd harass someone, just for wearing the shirt of a wrestler they don't like, is a f***ing loser asshole. And then there's the racial slur part, which makes it beyond deplorable.

It's weird, you hear horror stories online about gross wrestling fans on the internet, but between OPs story and my experience when I went to a TNA show in 2008, the worst ones you seem to encounter in person.

I seriously wanted to punch this one obnoxious dude on Saturday. He was drunk before the show even started and was spilling his drink everywhere. I told him to watch out about 4 times. So during the show while I had my phone out to record an entrance he raised his arm up and placed his arm in front of my phone while staring at me. I stopped looked at him and flipped him off. I despise shitty wrestling fans. Wresting events bring out the worse of humanity under one roof whether drunk or not.

I had this dude behind me that kept yelling for Ryder and it was f***ing obnoxious. Besides that, the attitudes did seem pretty bad compared to other big shows I've gone to.
Maybe it's just a New York thing but living here, shit is never this bad at MSG.

Sad thing is that this is not necessarily just an anti-Reigns thing nor it is new. I remember watching a clip of a RAW a few years back and there was a sign from someone who claimed an anti-Cena fan dumped beer on a kid who was cheering for Cena.
This kind of behavior, especially on the level you had to deal with, is out and out f***ing disgusting beyond any sort of doubt.

Hate when jerks ruin what should be a good time and fun experience. A lwrestling show is one of the best forms of entertainment to be at live. I don't care what kind of shirt someone wears at a wrestling show, cussing or using racial slurs directed at that person is just wrong and ignorant.

It means nothing, but I am genuinely sorry you had to go through this. 90% of the wrestling fans I've been around at independent and WWE shows have all been hot garbage. It's a sad fact that wrestling shows are basically high school cliques now. If you want to sit at the "cool kid's table", you'd damn well better boo and cheer who you're "supposed" to boo and cheer or you're called out for it. I don't know how or when it happened, but wrestling fandom turned into this at some point. I don't know how you fix it, but it's something that needs to be addressed and changed. I get that we joke around on here a lot, but if you actually yell at people and dictate who they should like/dislike, you're pathetic.

It's a sad fact that there's wrestling fans out there that have zero issues with cussing/assaulting kids at these shows. My dad and I went to Raw back in 2005. A guy sitting a couple of seats down from us called a little girl a "Stupid bitch" for holding up her Cena sign. Luckily one of his friends was a decent human and slapped the taste out of his mouth, but still, it didn't help that little girl. It ruined the entire show for her.

It's stories like these that make me 2nd guess on going to live wrestling shows.
Although if it's a local indy promotion, I'm more willing to go.
