You know what I'm talking about..
Wyatt = Husky chants
Los Matadores = Primo chant (from one asshole in the crowd)
What is the point in chanting out these things? To show off your pseudo wrestling knowledge?
The WWE isn't trying to treat you like you're stupid in this regard, and if you think that then you're a moron. When a wrestler changes gimmick you're supposed to suspend disbelief and treat them as a new character all together, that's what wrestling is about.. suspension of disbelief. It's all apart of the business, you're supposed to embrace change, embrace new characters ect.
The WWE knows most wrestling fans aren't fooled by these things, maybe the kids don't know it's the same guy under the mask but that's a different story all together.
Yes, in some cases the WWE treat people like they are stupid (the constant WWE app instructions) but what I'm talking about is a very different matter.
It's all about creating a world, and as fans you are supposed to help get some of these new gimmicks over with people. When you are marking out for a gimmick and you hear some moron shout "Husky Harris" it just ruins the fun, especially when it's done during a brand new entrance.
The Goldberg chants piss me off as well, WE GET IT.. he's big and strong like GOLDBERG.. he's bald.. like GOLDBERG. These smarks think they are clever because they know that Ryback looks like Goldberg, and they want to reach out to other smarks to let them know that they are clever too, it's all just a massive smark circle jerk.
I consider myself a smark, but not one of these assholes smarks. I understand how the business works, I take an interest in backstage politics, I question the decisions of the company, that's the type of smark I don't mind, because it's harmless.
Then again, who am I say to anything about these guys? They paid their money right?
I know this topic has been covered a thousand times, but I had the overwhelming urge to speak on this.
Post your thoughts, tell me that I'm using the word "bury" in the wrong context, tell me I'm a pussy for getting annoyed.
Peace out y'all.
