While these men have their fans, there are detractors as well. Some of these detractors can become a quite vocal chorus at wrestling shows.Take, for example, John Cena. When his music plays and Cena hits the stage, many people react with thunderous applause and cheering.

This role was well suited for him, but then the Shield split and Roman was thrust into the main event immediately.The result has been polarizing, to say the least. While many cheer for Roman (particularly female fans and children), he also has a vocal chorus, booing him at every live event.
