10 things British WWE fans know to be true

#5 We start the best chants

We want some Bayley!

Interaction from the WWE audience has become part and parcel of the company’s product over the last decade or so. It used to be that people like Stone Cold and The Rock would tell us exactly what to chant after coming up with it themselves, nowadays we use our imaginations, sometimes drastically interfering with the show itself in the process. While the US still very much relies on the ‘WHAT?’ Chant, or Daniel Bryan’s ‘YES’, we in Britain like to think of ourselves as the innovators of the WWE Universe. That’s why a lot of the more popular chants first get going across the pond.

Two recent examples are the ‘John Cena Sucks’ sing-a-long everytime his music plays and the ‘oooh-Enzo Amore’ (to the tune of The White Stripes’ Seven Nation Army) that fans like to sing whenever Enzo and Cass are in the ring.

We were also the first the put the word ‘Bayley’ into a variety of different pop songs as a way to show our appreciation for the former Raw women’s champion. Whether it’s ‘Heyyy-hey Bayley, ooh-ahh’ or ‘oooooh-we want some Bayley’, both of these can be credited to the good old United Kingdom – and you wonder why Superstars love coming here.
