I am usually on the fans side of things when it comes to chanting, but that was gross. Does HHH ever get you blown Shawn or eat our Steph chants? No. Its sexist and to be honest, the Post-Raw crowd thinks they are the stars of Wrestlemania. That needs to stop.
There's no defending starting awful chants like that. This isn't ECW 20 years ago when people were drunk, didn't know better and in a setting where stuff like that was encouraged. The post-WM crowd has had two things going for it: being clever/funny and being better than the company they're watching and mocking. I roll my eyes a bit at the "WE ARE AWESOME!" chant, especially after the first time when maybe it was warranted, but the battle line here isn't about them thinking they're bigger than show, it's that chants like those at the women aren't clever or funny and it means you're no better than the pretty ethically awful company you're supposed to be mocking.
You have to think any twinge of regret AJ might have been feeling for leaving went away when the crowd reminded her that even the "smart" fans are as capable as being garbage as the garbage company that no doubt treated her like garbage all year.
Anyway, start policing yourselves, once beloved drunk international fans. Take a cue from your betters in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. More "YOU ARE STUPID!" at people with hilariously dumb new haircuts, less chanting hateful stuff that would get you thrown out of a real, legitimate sporting event at people who probably want the company to improve as much as you do.

Hi, we're the post Mania crowd, we're all about coulda, not about shoulda.
They need to specifically add to their tiny print section (that forbids cosplay on the hard camera side but not this somehow) that when you purchase the ticket that you can get your sorry ass tossed outside for being a misogynistic piece of crap.
AJ is a legit HOF candidate, no matter how brief her WWE career was. She was easily the most intense woman I've ever seen in a WWE ring, light years beyond Trish, Lita, or even Chyna.

Especially considering that if the WWE wasn't keeping them afloat, neither of the Bellas would have amounted to anything in the indys. If they start actively discouraging people to show up, your only options on TV will soon be Lucha Underground and TNA.
If this fantasy world actually comes to pass, and my only option is listen to fans chanting some form of "YOU SUCK TYSON!" or else WWE is off tv forever... I'm fine not watching anymore.
I don't need to watch that show anymore than I need people who know me to know that I would lower myself to watch it.

Hell, I'm just glad that it's Steph that's been given the job. Sure Shane could've done wonders, but they could've completely blown it by sticking Dusty Rhodes in, or bringing back Roddy Piper.
