WWE’s 5 Worst Fan-Created Chants

WWE.com

Here are the five most annoying crowd chants in the WWE Universe!

This is always an interesting topic to dive into as there are typically two major camps when it comes to what crowds should or shouldn’t do at shows. One side feels if people paid for a ticket, they should be able to chant freely (within reason) whatever they please, while the other side prefers that crowds keep it more civil and let the focus remain on the wrestling personalities who are performing for them.

The chants that made this list typically fit the profile of being either incredibly overused or overly disrespectful towards the wrestlers in the ring. Sometimes crowds have been known to “go into business for themselves” with chants that either outright ruin promos or use it as a way to show just how much they dislike the match-up going on at that moment.

Before we get to the top five, a few honorable mentions to those that just missed the cut. Although we don’t hear it too often these days, but “ECW” has to be near the top for a number of reasons. First, it’s a chant for a company that closed down fifteen years ago (where are the “WCW!” chants?) and a large chunk of the WWE fan base isn’t even old enough to remember it, don’t be a sheep and chant just because others do it. ECW was a great company that worked during a specific point in wrestling history, it wouldn’t do nearly as well in today’s environment, just leave it in the past.

Another honorable mention has to go to “This is wrestling!” Obviously, what you’re watching is wrestling, so on a basic level, it just sounds dumb. Plus, it could be offensive to the guys and gals that wrestled previously on the show, was that not wrestling?

Okay, let’s get to the top five, and before you rage click, the “Yes” chant isn’t among the worst.
