One of the biggest examples of what the internet is capable of doing is the following case featuring the three-way real-life story between Edge & Lita, and Matt Hardy. In April 2005, Lita was still a babyface, and was wth Kane in an on-screen capacity.

Lita and a heel Trish Stratus had an in-ring exchange on an episode of Raw, but the crowd was surprisingly anti-Lita, who came down to the ring on crutches. The news of what happened between Lita and Matt Hardy was all over the internet by that time, and fans didn't shy away from giving Lita a piece of their mind.

At Survivor Series 2003, Goldberg confronted Brock Lesnar during a backstage interview and the seeds for a future dream match were planted immediately. Lesnar and Goldberg met again in the backstage area, moments before the Royal Rumble match in 2004. Soon after, Lesnar cost Goldberg a shot at the world title by interfering in the free-for-all and hitting him with an F-5. The match was soon made official and Stone Cold was made the special referee.

At WrestleMania 20, the Madison Square Garden crowd booed both Goldberg and Lesnar out of the building, after rumors had come out, stating that both Superstars were leaving the company immediately after 'Mania. Chants of "You sold out" were heard throughout the match, along with a chorus of boos. Goldberg and Lesnar were both hit with Stone Cold Stunners after the match was over, to a loud ovation from the rabid crowd inside MSG. It would be years before either of them returned to WWE again.
