So the WWE has been editing crowd reactions for Daniel Bryan
Yeah! As the title reads. I think it is borderline insulting!
I understand the following clip is from Smackdown and it is prone to a lot of editing, but take a look at the end of the video where the entire crowd erupts for D Bryan and the "yes chants" are somewhat washed out. What the fuck? |

Goes against whatever narrative or spot they think Ziggler and Neville belongs in at the moment. Ceasro last Monday is another example of his pop being way bigger than the WWE wants so they edited it to be for Orton instead.
With the exception of some moments, they've been doing stuff like that going as far back as mid-to-late Hogan era. |

There was a guy who posted here once. He came here to say he had been used as as a crowd member of a Smackdown he never went to. He did the thumbs down reaction at one Smackdown and they used it again for some reason as a reaction to Jack Swagger.

Why?
Their last name isn't Cena or Reigns. |

Waiting for the "John" and "Roman" parts to be dropped at any given moment.

piped in crowd noise? Edited crowds? Camera tricks showing a different crowd audience member on close ups?
WWE has done this for a long time. How is this new to anyone? |

Ya, it does not make any sense. You should want the wrestlers to get over so they can earn you more money. Even if you don't push Daniel Bryan to the main event if he is still super popular by all the crowds it will catch on and sell more merchandise.

Maybe WWE are trying to "wean" fans off Daniel Bryan so that when he does have to retire early because of the injuries/future risk, they don't react badly etc?
Whatever the case the future is unfortunately not looking good at all for Daniel Bryan and some speculating he should at least keep going till WM 32.....he may decide to call it quits earlier. Maybe after Summer Slam this year. A final match against Triple H, end the Authority at the event he first won the WWE title 2 years ago and then say good bye? Rather that than watch him slide down the food chain ad be content with IC title feuds with Sheamus and Barrett. |

Then again, the smarks won't just accept him as an upper-mid card guy and like to "protest" him not being in main events. So if they can do things to reel it back a little, it can help out the main event picture.

Wouldn't that money and effort be better spent on a new T-shirt for the guy getting the cheers they don't want? At least that way, they actually get money out of the reaction.
Oh yeah, WWE hates money. |

Sure, they need their consumers to keep their stock prices at a certain value but burying one guy who's over (or getting over) isn't going to hurt your stock value. There's little to no incentive to risk going all in on a guy if you're not sure or for whatever reason don't think he'll make your stock price increase. This is particularly true if you rely on a demographic (i.e., children) that doesn't "think for themselves" who will skew the numbers enough to show a steady revenue stream to keep your stock value stable. In comparison, prior to the success of Austin, Foley and Rock and WWE going public, WWE was nearly broke (and supposedly close to going under) there was great incentive for them to listen to their consumers and go with the guys who were most "over" with the crowds. Long story short, WWE has less incentive to worry about their consumers or who's more "over" as long as they have enough sustained revenues to keep their stock value stable. |

Which is a refreshing change than what I assume is a canned pop for Orton with that same girly shriek at the beginning that comes at the exact same time evey ti e his music hits.
