WWE Editing Fan Reactions For Roman Reigns Again

Roman Reigns is being pushed to be the next big thing in WWE whether the fans like it or not, the constant booing of the former United States Champion hasn’t led to Vince McMahon changing his mind about his push, instead, he has decided to edit out the boos.

Not only are WWE officials editing out the boos for Reigns, but they are also editing out crowd reactions and using stock footage to make it look as though Roman has fans supporting him. A few weeks ago WWE was caught when they tried to edit the video of Roman losing the United States Championship to make it look like the fans were annoyed by it, when really the same fan they showed was actually celebrating.

Once again this week WWE played the same footage of a fan more than once throughout Roman’s match against The Club as the company continues to work hard to try and give the impression that Roman Reigns has supporters.

Bryan Alvarez and Dave Meltzer noted on a recent episode of Wrestling Observer Radio that the company has been reusing crowd shots that show a positive reaction for Roman Reigns.

It doesn’t really matter what the crowd thinks, WWE fans will form their own opinion and now doctoring live footage just to make a point shows just how desperate the company is to get Reigns over. It’s stunts like this that are keeping the WWE Universe from liking the former Shield member.
