Sheamus probably doesn't know WHAT to feel.

He should blame Vince because he will never be forgiven by the smart fans for beating Daniel Bryan in 18 seconds.

Also, his booking as a baby face doesn't help as well but 90% is due to last years Wrestlemania.

 

[Ithil]

I do think Vince legit enjoyed this crowd along with the rest of us.

I can understand them tinkering with the crowd sound during the Cena segments, they came prepared. And I understand it from a business point of view.

Wouldn't be necessary if they changed his character, but I understand why they did it.

When the crowd were going J-B-L, they showed a closeup of him for a huge pop. I'd say at some point they just decided to roll with it, that crowd was not gonna co-operate.

 

[MegaKungFuRadio]

Awesome!!

Reports from the building indicate the sound guy played Fandango's music to send them home. EPIC #WWE #raw

It's so fucked up that plenty of people in the company "get it" and we still get pure unadulterated garbage 364 days out of the year.

Nah Vince is a control freak you cheer what he wants you to cheer for. 10 more years of Cena

They did a close up on JBL, showed the crowd doing the wave, and apparently closed out the show with Fandango's music. Clearly some people in the back just said 'roll with it'

Haha, what a crowd.

 

[Data West]

Y2Kev, change the OT to *Fandango theme*

 

[British Monsoon]

I know everyone's in a great mood because of a great RAW, but mind if I cut in? Footage of Jun Kasai vs Masada at the CZW show last weekend;

FUUUUUUUCKING JEEEEZUSS!!!! Blood pours out of Kasai like a goddamn fountain.

 

[Kyoufu]

Sad that Punk was a no show.

And Raw isn't in Chicago ever again.

lololollll

I hope future crowds watching at home took some notes.

 

[Ithil]

I wish I was a fly on the wall backstage. The locker room must have been killing themselves laughing watching the monitor.

Fandango, Bryan and Ziggler are gonna be sleeping soundly tonight.

 

[Dave Meltzer]

Didn't they say Rock was the number one contender? Or did I dream that?

 

[Vaco6121]

That is all they do can when you have a crowd like tonight's. Just gotta go with it.

 

[NihonTiger90]

Fandango theme is this year's YES! chant.

New Orleans, pressure is on you guys to deliver.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

Sad that Punk was a no show.

And Raw isn't in Chicago ever again.

Punk will be feuding with Cesaro for the US title at this rate.

 

[Aiii]

Payback is in Chicago in June.

 

[Data West]

Now I get why Cena is the way he is.

No other way could you make people pop so big for Ryback. Absolutely no other way than hitting blessed Cena.

 

[bean breath]

God, wrestling logic is so stupid. Beat the champ for a chance to beat the champ. Wat?

First, you have to beat John Cena to get a Championship match.

Second, you have to beat John Cena to become the Champion.

Lastly, you have to beat John Cena when you plays his rematch clause.


So Mark Henry will need to beat John Cena 3 times in a row.

 

[Kyoufu]

Payback is in Chicago in June.

That's a PPV.

This can only boost Fandango's confidence. Guy is getting a monster push and is on a rocket to the moon.

 

[Cagey]

I told you guys the jersey crowd would deliver. I TOLD ALL YOUS GUYS.

We run this shit and we ballroom dance while doing it.

 

[slightconfuse]

HOLY CRAP

@arda_ocal: “@PatLaprade: Wow! People are honking Fandango's music with their car in the parking lot!! @arda_ocal @WWE Awesome!” #ILoveWrestling

 

[Aiii]

That's a PPV.

How is that worse?

@PWRshow crowd still singing Fandango theme in the parking lot #RAW

EXACTLY like last year, with YES. People were YESing all through the show, right until the very end after the dark match and Bryan gave a speech, then there were videos of everyone YESing on their way out of the arena, YESing on their way through the corridors, YESing outside the arena, and even YESing using their car horns while driving away.

Something just catches on and they can't stop doing it. They've probably just MADE Fandango's career. I know we heard Vince already enjoys the gimmick, but whether it would catch on was another story.

EDIT: Yep, even the car horns. It's just too much fun to not do it.

 

[Data West]

The crowd was hot like a lot of the Attitude Era crowds used to be. Like people getting out of their seats when Ziggler got the pin. You rarely see that anymore.

 

[Alucard]

HOLY CRAP

LOOOOOOOOL. So good. I'm going to sleep well tonight.

'Nite all. Shower and bed time.

 

[Snaku]

I want a Fandango shirt that has his music's lyrics.

 

[SquashMatch]

Fandango reminds me of Rick Martel. Vince was right to like him.

 

[Kyoufu]

How is that worse?

No promos.

Don't get me wrong, I like PPVs, but Raw > PPVs because interesting shit happens on free TV more often than on a PPV.

 

[Pavaloo]

Holy moly what a great Raw

 

[abstract alien]

Ryback and Fandango

Top faces in WWE

Seriously, I would have placed a ban bet on this had you said it yesterday. I have no clue what I just watched.

 

[Ithil]

HHH being too wary of this crowd to come out and waiting until Smackdown slayed me.

Vince is probably smoking a cigar, saying "still got it" to himself as he jerks off to photo shoots of Stephanie.

 

[Judderman]

HOLY CRAP

I'll miss you, Post-WM29 Raw crowd.

[McNei1y]

I'm so mad I didn't watch this Raw with you guys. The fucking Fandango song chants are killing me.

 

[Arrowgigantic]

Last year, we got Daniel Bryan fest.

What will we get this year?

I watched the whole thing and I still don't know the answer to this.

 

[mingoguaya]

When Ziggler music played, I havent seen a reaction like that in YEARS! <3 the crowd!!

Watch it while you can

 

[SquashMatch]

The only thing that compares is MITB 2011 when Punk beat Cena.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

So, from what I understand:

This Raw had a white hot smark crowd, and it was actually decent, so I should watch it when I return home.

Accurate?

 

[Ithil]

I watched the whole thing and I still don't know the answer to this.

Uhhh...Fandango/Randomo/Bryan/Ziggler/Ryback/Whatever fest?
