If you watch the video linked above, there is only a faint whisper of jeers when Bayley first starts speaking and addressing her injury. However, when Bayley makes a reference to them is when the boos start drowning her out. We have seen superstars like The Miz and Alexa Bliss handle hostile crowds with panache in the past. Bayley's inexperience showed in this case as she allowed the trolls to get under her skin and mess with her mind.
John Cena is the perfect example of someone who brings the most hostile crowd under his control, with his presence of mind and razor sharp acumen. He never lets trolls get the better of him. Give them a reason to believe they've thrown you off track, and they will be merciless. Unfortunately, while some alluded to Bayley as a 'female John Cena', there's still a while to go before they're at the same level or even the same conversation.
