No, they were booing him because they thought they were going be looked on by the rest of the world as "OMG, those guys are doing what they want!!!!!!!!!!11 TORONTO RULES!!!!!!!!!11".
Characters don't get booed straight away if they're stale. You slowly see some of the less easily fooled/impatient people go first. Then those that eventually have the patience to put up with the character. Now wither Toronto is filled with fans that started watching restling at the exact same time, and are equally as intelligent, or they wanted to cheer and boo who they wanted to, not because they wanted to but because they thought it would be cool.
