WWE Universe
 
I know this isn't a big deal in the whole picture, but does anyone else hate the term "WWE Universe" as much as I do? I would much rather hear the term "fans". Every time someone refers to the "WWE Universe" I just cringe. It just feels so unnatural and almost like the WWE management is mocking us fans with the term. Just my opinion though. Agree, disagree?

We've been complaining about it since they started using it.

Anybody Thrilla 07-21-2010 11:54 AM

I don't mind it, personally.

Snowden 07-21-2010 12:52 PM

Its whatever really. Its just a tagline that they use to refer to the fanbase, meh.

Schlomey 07-21-2010 01:43 PM

It would be nice if they could call us the WWE Universe but still refer to us as Wrestling FANS. The term WWE Universe has taken over all other words associated with liking their brand of wrestling so in return it is rather annoying and totally overused.

It's dumb, but I don't care.

It's just a dumb attempt to redefine wrestling as someone else.

Kane Knight 07-21-2010 01:44 PM

What are individual fans? Planets? Solar Systems?

I know Cena fans are Galaxies....

Jordan 07-21-2010 01:51 PM

It's fine

Wishbone 07-21-2010 03:14 PM

meh not a big deal but if I had my way it would be gone in a second

jskinnyg 07-21-2010 03:27 PM

Meh either way...

Purgatory 07-21-2010 04:41 PM

I can't begin to describe how much I hate it....Especially, when Kaval uses it like 8979867865078976897 times in a damn promo.

Mooияakeя™ 07-21-2010 04:46 PM

I hate it, sound pathetic, but meh, it doesn't get me so pissed off as seeing Regal being underused every fucking week.

dhellova guy 07-21-2010 05:40 PM

It stinks, but I tune it out kinda like I do when Jack Swagger starts to talk

blak23 07-21-2010 06:39 PM

it sounds better than fannation imo

Nicky Fives 07-21-2010 07:13 PM

meh.... Vince just wants to disassociate his company from the other professional sports who call their fanbase "fans"

XCaliber 07-21-2010 11:20 PM

Don't mind it but they could have chosen a more appropriate term.

Fignuts 07-21-2010 11:30 PM

It's fucking stupid.

Providence Peep 07-21-2010 11:38 PM

Well, it's a hell of a lot better than Planet Stasiask :lol:

BizarroKing 07-22-2010 01:12 AM

Why stop at universe? Why not multiverse? :P

Jimmy Cones 07-22-2010 09:28 AM

"The people"

Anybody Thrilla 07-22-2010 10:46 AM

See, I always thought they were using 'universe' to encompass every facet of the WWE fanbase. Kids, adults, men, women, Raw fans, Smackdown fans, internet fans, etc. It makes sense that way. I don't get why there's so much hatred for it. It has no bearing on anything.

Kane Knight 07-22-2010 12:06 PM

You know what else encompasses all the fans?

Fans.

It's a dumb thing to bitch about though. It's such a nitpick. But it's also dumb to rationalise it.

Anybody Thrilla 07-22-2010 12:53 PM

Dumb to rationalize. OK.

I probably never would have even THOUGHT to rationalize it if I didn't hear people bitching about it, though.

I don't mind the name so much but their facebook page is pretty useless. No real discussion going on.
