That's no different than the officially sanctioned "We Hate Cena" shirts.

Thing is, though, is that WWE is actually acknowledging this stuff. Once upon a when, they used to sweep shit under the rug and act like it didn't/isn't happening. Yes, it comes off as being "whiny" and "entitled", but when the guys the fans have genuine vested interest in seeing get derailed in favor of the next flavor of the day (next on this list, Russev... guaranteed he'll be gone within a couple of years after being booked like a monster like so many "impressive looking" people in his mold. Kozlov comes to mind immediately.) I mean, they pushed the hell out of the Fandango SONG after a bunch of drunks sang along on ONE overseas tour, for chrissakes!

As far as fans paying money for seats to shit on the product, they truly are entitled to it. If you paid money to see some wrestling on a show that's full of promos and skits, they deserve to be called on it. If you paid money and are sick of seeing Cena all the time, you can vocalize that shit in a collective "boo".

The only problem I see with the comment that triggered this thread is the idea of the so-called "smart" fans who just chant shit just to chant shit. It's totally different than stuff done out of love, like "Holy Shit", "You Fucked Up", or "You Still Got It" stuff reserved for those moments... it's annoying, petty shit like the people who still do "WHAT?!" when the context is long gone and they're just stepping on someone's promo. Or "Husky Harris" for Bray like we don't know. I get the intent behind chanting for Punk- especially in Chicago- but either he's really not there, or it's a total work and he'll show up soon. There's a difference between those coming to actually support CM Punk's "cause", but just about as many just like the idea of disrupting the show. Wouldn't matter what the chant was.
