To answer the original topic, fans should have the power, but the WWE shouldn't cave to a single instance of dissention. Philly's crowd is a smark crowd, and they reacted more extremely than average. However, it does seem a like a lot of fans aren't too happy, period. Ultimately, the actual number of cancellations will mark the reality. Internet communities of any passion always have their extreme fan bases who think they represent reality but are just as out of touch with the average fan as the head of the company they're lambasting.
If Reigns gets boo'd over the next few shows, then the WWE should probably get the hint that it's more than just smarks who aren't enjoying this. If not, then maybe continue the line and tweak to make things make sense.
Ultimately, the WWE is about Sports Entertainment. They have to cater to their fans to entertain them, but I agree that a small group of renegades shouldn't hijack booking decisions. The question is whether last night's reaction is extremist or not.
