WWE: Flops of the show from August 5th RAW

5. The Crowd

Frankly, it was one of the worst RAW crowds in recent times. They seemed very much occupied with themselves as what was happening in the ring didn’t interest them. Though there were a few chants here and there, the crowd, for the majority of the show, remained completely silent.

The Rhodes/Sandow segment gave me a feeling that the arena was empty. The crowd seemed oblivious to Kofi’s return, as if they never recognized him. The Wyatt Family promo made the crowd feel depressed I presume, as they remained dumbstruck by their actions.

Though a small part of the crowd reminded others to cheer for Bryan and Kane, and also to boo Cena, they didn’t manage to give out any sort of energy to the wrestlers inside the ring.
