On some occasions, like the night after WrestleMania, crowd chants can be a great way for fans to interact with the stars they love, but there are other times where crowd chants are so annoying that it takes away from the overall experience of the show. In fact, some find that rowdy crowd chants can ruin a show completely for fans.
With that in mind, here are five chants that are extremely annoying and can end up ruining an event if not calmed down properly. Of course, some might see this list as a problem and site freedom of speech as a reason to keep on chanting what they want, but what if they had their once in a lifetime experience ruined by an annoying chant? Would they care then?
#5 Chris Benoit chants.
Believe it or not, fans actually decided to chant, Chris Beniot, during a taped opening for an NXT event and while the chant didn't last very long, it forced Triple H to respond by telling The WWE Universe to shut up. Of course, he had every right to, given just how bad Benoit's actions were, but it really took away from the experience a bit.
Just imagine sitting down in your seat for one of the most anticipated NXT pay per views of the year and have people all around you shouting the name of a murderer. Furthermore, imagine having that conversation with your young John Cena fan about who Chris Benoit is and why Triple H is telling fans to shut up for chanting it.
That's not a very good situation and totally ruins what should be a joyous experience for parents and children. In the end, the chant happened at the beginning of the show and was probably forgotten by the end of the blockbuster pay per view, but it really had to hurt the immersion aspect of the event.
#4 Boring
WWE fans are entitled to their option and have every right to express it during a match, but why criticize something that people know absolutely nothing about? Fans don't necessarily have to know everything about wrestling to know if something is boring or not, but why sit there and ruin the show for those that are interested in what is taking place?
In fact, why can't these fans just get up and leave the arena if they are so unhappy with what they are seeing take place in the ring? If nothing else, it feels like these fans just want to become part of the show, but again, the problem with that is it ruins the show for the other fans.
Just imagine trying to sit through a match between John Cena and another top tier superstar, a match you paid good money to see and then hearing the guy behind you shout boring throughout the entire thing. Not only does that take you out of the match mentally, it also very disrespectful to those superstars risking their life in the ring.
#3 We want tables
Not only does this chant sometimes put unrealistic expectations on a match when it doesn't call for the use of weaponry, it also ruins the psychology of the match and leaves competitors thinking that they aren't putting on a good enough match unless they put each other through a table.
Sure, a 'we want tables' chant is fitting whenever there are extreme rule situations or during a ladder match, but to call for one out of nowhere when that's not where the match is going is just rude. It also is extremely disrespectful to the competitors in the ring who are trying to put on a good show for the fans.
Furthermore, chanting we want tables could be distracting to other fans that are actually enjoying the match taking place in the ring and thus ruins their experience as well. In the end, it might seem like a nit pick to some, especially with how popular the chant was when The Dudley Boys were tearing it up back in the day, but it's just distracting any other time.
#2 CM Punk
No matter how many time fans chant, we want Punk, or CM Punk, in an arena, the man is simply never coming back to the squared circle. Punk, who walked out on WWE after being unhappy with the creative direction the company was going in, has made it clear in interviews, twitter posts and through friends that he would never be returning.
With that being said and the fact that CM Punk no longer exists in the mind of WWE officials, or at least they only do when the company wants to take a shot at him, it makes no sense to continue to chant his name. It achieves absolutely nothing and worse then that, it is disrespectful to the people that are actually in the ring tearing it up for your entertainment!
#1 Cena Sucks Chants
There is only one reason why this chant is on the list and believe it or not, it has absolutely nothing to do with being a Cena fanboy. In fact, it has nothing to do with Cena at all, and has everything to do with the young, impressionable and sensitive fans that follow The beloved Cenation leader.
With that being said, with 'Cena sucks' chants being a staple of any appearance Cena makes on RAW or Smackdown Live, it is time that WWE consider their younger audience and ban this chant for good. Not only is it practically bullying, but also because it's extremely distracting to anyone's experience in the arena.
Sure, younger fans get a chance to chant, 'Lets go Cena' which is their way of rooting for their favourite superstar, but they are also met with chants of Cena sucks by others. Imagine being a young child and having to defend your hero to an audience of adults and then you'll see exactly why this chant just doesn't work.
Why do these poor kids have to sit there and endure 'Cena sucks' chants whenever they try to rally behind their hero? I could understand if 'Cena sucks' chants started first, which wouldn't be bullying in any way, but when they start chanting 'Cena sucks' after rallying cries of lets go Cena, its just a way to intimidate them and render their opinion meaningless.
That's not how a WWE Live experience should be and we all know it! So the next time you're attending a show live and you hear a round of 'Lets go Cena' chants breaking out, just let the poor kids have their moment and don't try to ruin what is probably going to be one of the greatest experiences of their childhood.
