I don't have an issue with fans bringing signs to shows, and I hate censorship.
But, like, I also understand that wrestling companies are producing a television show and ought to be able to remove signs that distract from the program if they are too offensive or over the top.

As I recall the guy had actually been catfished by someone pretending to be Seth Rollins and because he was mentally ill he assumed Seth had actually stolen money from him. Oh yeah, that’s right Also just remembered that the fan that I was thinking of was the fan that tried to jump the barricade during one of MJFs segments. Yeah the Cornette fan was the one who jumped the barricade at the first Dynamite when they went back on the road. Jericho and MJF were gonna have a face-off, and the fan jumped Jericho as he was going down to the ring.

Honestly I’m fine with signs being not allowed or at the minimum not allowed in the fronts of sections/where they can block others view especially front row, solely because it blocks other peoples view and it’s not fair to pay that $$$ and have to look at the back of some dudes troll sign. I’m pretty sure that’s how the NBA and “real” sports do things. If you wait for someone to display a sign with an abhorrent message on it before kicking them out or taking it they won’t care because they already got it onto tv.

The funniest thing about the Cornette dork is how sheepish and scared he looked holding up his sign once he realized he was getting a camera close-up. I thought you wanted everyone to notice you, you ****ing clown. Bro probably spent 600 on the ticket to impress an old man. Probably could have spent 20 at Wendy's to do that Or burst out of a box, because coming out of a box instantly makes you over.

if you as a fan wan to wear a costume and draw attention to yourself you should be ushered to an off site cabin where people can choose to go see you if they want instead of the show. Make it way way way way offsite like 14 miles north of every venue they go to Also you should be behind glass like some kind of f***ed up human zoo.

I don't have much to say about the sign situation, other than the jacket makes me imagine Lex Luger's WWF theme played in sad trombone style.

I think fans should be able to wear what they want and have whatever signs they want (within reason) but if you're going to be seated in the first few rows on the hard cam side, you have to be aware that your presence could be disruptive and you shouldn't aim to be that. Sit there with your Cornette shirt and edgelord signs when you're row 20, but not when you're front row center.

Wish he would have taken the sign sooner, or escorted him out of the building. I mean, i disagree with the dude but unless he’s breaking a venue rule I think kicking him out of the building is a nuclear option that doesn’t need to be touched. (If nothing else because it’s just feeding the trolls) Right, but why ruin the time for the people around him and the viewers at home? At this point, I'd rather just purge trolls and not have to see/think about them than take a high road.

Ejecting him I think is too much, unless you're doing something like the Nyla Rose trasphobia sign, the sign should just be confiscated and a warning issued If they keep trying to hijack the show however? Yeah, kick their asses out.

Personally I'd just ban signs entirely. Way too much stupid shit gets written on them and they obstruct people's view anyway.

Anything "annoying" like dumb smarky and trolling signs should be confiscated and warned. Anything actively hateful should result in an immediate ejection.

have security talk shit to all gimmick fans, discourage them every time, do it in the queue outside so they're too bummed out by the time the show starts 'Hey, you know that wrestling show you're going to in there? I got something to tell ya, I don't know if you've heard but it's f***ing fake, you f***ing nerd'

I don’t disagree…I definitely think the era of signage should have stayed in the Attitude Era Signs were especially a way of showing off to people at home that you were on TV... which with clearer hd signals and it not being as much as an event with things like Youtube it's definitely lost a lot of steam.

Signs that are intentionally hateful should definitely be taken away, but leave signs as a whole. I'll be damned if we don't continue the video game war.
