Walking out implies you don't care. Staying there and intentionally not watching the match allows the bad vibes to sink in; let's them know you don't approve, and that you're putting effort into ignoring them.

I really think that the chants were enough. Turning your backs on them is implying that you aren't even going to give them a chance, which is just stupid when you paid to see the show.

Chanting "You both suck," "Boring," and "Same old shit" is letting them know exactly what they're doing wrong. During the "same old shit" chants, what did Big Show and Batista do? Did they improvise and make the match more entertaining with more actual wrestling moves? No. They fucking continued to clothesline each other into infinity.

Chances are, Vince will never bring ECW to the Hammerstein again.

They hurt Batista's feelers.

The chants were ignorant, to be truthful. Show busting out an Emerald Fusion was a WTF moment. In essence, the fans actually shat on a match that really wasn't bad.

Give that match a different vibe, and that would have been viewed as a classic match.

A. That wasn't an Emerald Fusion. That was a Schwein/Air Raid Crash.

B. Classic? No.

C. The fans weren't being ignorant. They don't want to see straight up WWE guys. Show can be tolerated because he'll be over as a heel. But putting him up against Batista is essentially having two heels duke it out, and the fans will get behind neither person. It's bad booking.

Yes, it was dick-like of the fans not to respect the guys enough to give them a chance. But at the same time, they were there for ECW, not Smackdown. As much as I respect Vas, I have to agree more with WWKD on this one; with the exception of Sabu's run-in, the match, tho adequate in execution, was terrible in planning. I mean, just the fact that it was a championship match that was not Extreme Rules is enough to irritate even the casual fan.


Oh, and just to nit pick, it was not an Air Raid Siren, it was a Kryptonite Krunch. The same thing Finlay uses as a finisher.

Yeah, because shitting on the match carte blanche is totally different from not giving it a chance.

That crowd never gave it a chance whatsoever. You can argue semantics, but you have to be stupid if you think there was any chance they were actually giving the match a shot.

Exactly. It seems that "ECW Fans" (some true, some not) will not accept anything with a WWE wrestler in it. Hell, I noticed Angle getting some (not a lot, but enough) heat there, so if he can't get a proper pop from ECW fans, no one can.

I'm just glad they don't yell "THIS IS AWESOME" at every fucking thing. Fuck I hope they don't run a TV taping in Florida.
