They've been using the same pre-recorded reactions since about, 1996 which was way before Smackdown was even created.

They definitely use the same dubbed in cheering on Smackdown.

I've been watching SD! since around 2002ish and only until early last year I found out about this so you're not alone.

They don't always dub in the crowd reactions (ie when Taker or Edge or someone comes out, people generally do cheer), but for a lot of the midcarders (Ziggler, Rhodes, ADR, etc), I'm pretty sure they do.

Eh, I figured as much. It was pretty obvious, but I just wanted confirmation.

But that seriously sucks. What's the point? I mean really.

Influence.

If thousands of people are booing Cody Rhodes, children (think under 14 years) are going to follow suit.

they certainly dub crowd noise into Zigglers entrance as he gets stone silence treatment when not with Vickie.

Meh, its a production so its just to add to it, kinda like how some of those awful TV sitcoms have fake laughter after terrible jokes.
