So I'm watching some TNA
 

And the crowd starts a "dueling chant" when I realize that it isn't a dueling chant at all. A dueling chant is when half the people are chant one thing and the other half are chanting something else right? Well the TNA marks don't do that. The entire arena was chanting for both guys. What the fuck to do you even call that (other than retarded?) Man I hate that crowd...

Watching TNA was probably your first mistake. I dunno, I've been quasite guilty of doing something similiar, except A. it was actually a dueling chant, and B. I picked one person... However, later in the match there was a second dueling chant, and I was chanting for the other person... But still, one person per chant people.

Yeah, I mean if you like both guys just go with a "this is awesome" chant. I know it's a bit played out but at least it's not a contradiction.

I'm not a big fan of the "This is Awesome" chant. IN fact, I loved when after the Briscoes Vs Joe and Homicide street fight, when people were chanting "That was awesome" Mark got on the mic, and he was hella out of breath, and he said. "I just want to let you guys know........ That's the dumbest fucking chant I've ever heard."

Let's Go Des-Tor! Let's Go Kev-In! Let's Go Des-Tor! Let's Go Kev-In!

However, the Joe Vs Kobashi match did warrant that chant, because Kobashi appearing in America is in fact "the shit."

God fucking dammit Tovo, you stole my post.

Like I said, it's a bit played out, but at least your not cheering for a draw (in theory.)

Is it possible for FANS to become stale?

lol Mag.

Seriously, I think TNA's the first promotion to get the FANS to be boring.

k don't overkill it.

I'm not TNA. :p

I cant fucking stand dueling or awesome chants.

In TNA, they push the limits of bad TV.

TNA is the only place where the ring announcer would get a chant just for introducing a wrestler.

So you want them chanting it the entire night?

How about we get the TNA fans in for RAW next week.

*Please go Cena* *Please go K-Fed* etc....

Bad TV isn't about pushing the limits! It's about NO LIMITS! THIS IS SO BIZARRE!

If that match was headlining a TNA show it would be the most awesome match ever to them.

Enter: The "This is Awful" chant.

All I knows is when Angle first came face to face with Joe the crowd was awesome that night.

Duelling chants actually work, but not in the heavy doses it gets in TNA.

For example, when a (heel) Shelton went up against Cena, the duelling chants ruled. You could hear the women and children chant "Let's Go Cena" and the men overwhelmingly chant "Let's Go Shelton".

lol I hear you guys complain about TNA FANS all the time

get a fucking life ... they like the product

That actually could happen. RAW will be in Florida, even though it's Miami.

The overbashing of TNA's product is ridiculous IMO, and some people here do go a little overboard with it. However, Destor isn't doing that right now. Instead he brings up a great point...those Orlando Fans are the dumbest fans alive. They almost make me hate wrestling sometimes.

TNA: GET THE FUCK OUT OF ORLANDO!

well the retarded wwe fans still yell what, i wish i lived in orlando and had a universel season pass i would be there every month standing next to the black dude who always waves the shirts.

Cause it's the first time one of their own was actually in front of a REAL star. Like groping a real breast instead of a blow up doll.

Honestly, it's not the dose, it's the method. Everyone's equally awesome in TNA. So everyone chants for both guys.

When I hear "Let's Go Cena/Let's Go Edge!" it's pretty cool. The fans are split, and are entertaining in and of themselves. It keeps the match intense.

When I hear two TNA jobbers chered for by the same people, it just sounds Godawful.

Do you guys just look for stuff to complain about?

We don't have to do much looking usually.

No, I find this really annoying. I've enjoyed TNA more in the past month than anything else on TV, but damn does that crowd make me like it less. I hate smark crowds. They're fucking nimrods.

Compare RoH to TNA. RoH has a smart crowd. On average RoH fans boo the heels they like, they cheer the faces they like, and they no sell people who suck up the joint. TNA marks on the other hand cheer everything. Regardless of what it is; and that's down right annoying.

Those heel workers in TNA must really hate that crowd as well. I know it gets on my nerves when a few smarks try to cheer for me, it makes me go out of my way to piss them off. Question: How does a heel get a push? By getting the loudest boos. Unfortunately the smarks in the audience don't realize that, it's no wonder TNA has a hard time booking anything properly when they can't tell who's over or not.

It a no-brainer that a crowd can make a show. The opposite is also true and that crowd really does hurt the show.
