That crowd was so dead. I felt like they woke up for Cody but that was about it and died once he was out of that competition. They weren't even really there for Brock which was surprising.

Sometimes you do just have dead crowds though you have a lot of attendance but the crowd is mute.
It happens with RAW more than any other show, which is sad when you're old enough to remember how RAW crowds used to be. At some point USA is going to have to admit that 3hrs is killing the show.

booooo.

Cody shoulda said 'pull up' not 'let's fight'. Earn your kufi, Cody!

Side note, cause this cone got me thinking:

The rigid language of this company is actually a verifiable reason to why it continues to not catch on to younger audiences. The way of communicating in the world to later generations has been changing for decades, and at this point being so... WWE about how people talk is why most people aren't really liked. If you can't sound comfortable, you have to at least sound on-trend.

It's why there is a clear vibe difference on NXT with promos. Because some of the people seen as good at promos in NXT aren't actually good at the promo part, but they sound like normal people in this current era and that goes miles for believability. "This contest has spilled out into the WWE Universe" Is not a sentence that someone flipping through is gonna hear and want to see more of. It's alienating.

Carmelo comes to mind so does Trick

Bron is great but he does have that 1990s style to his promos

Timestamped

Carmelo talks abotu him and HBK discussion this same topic
