Annoying fans chanting and trying to make themselves a part of the show have become a fact of life for WWE shows in the US. Booing the good guys, cheering the bad guys. Frankly, it is annoying. It makes me not want to go to a wrestling event. It is made worse because these “smart fans” are usually men in their 20s who like to pretend they know everything about wrestling, usually drowning out the cheers of kids. But during the Greatest Royal Rumble, we didn’t hear “Cena Sucks” or see any beachballs. Instead, we saw fans cheering and booing. They were into the wrestling. Western fans noticed and loved it.
This is a crowd that sees these guys as TV stars. They haven't become jaded yet. They're just taking it all in. #WWEGRR

As I’ve said, watching wrestling with kids is the best!
One of the rare times I hear more the kids then the adults at a WWE event #WWEGRR

Feel like I'm watching Hogan vs. Warrior again. #WWEGR

It is nice to enjoy the show without over-thinking it!
The crowd didn't yell "Sweet!" after a 2 count. This is wonderful

All joking aside it's a joy to watch a crowd that hasn't been ruined by snark and the knowledge of wrestling' seedy underbelly, and I say that as someone in the top 1% of all snarkiest fans
