...but this might.
I don't even know anymore...I wanted Curtis to become huge off this, but it's just embarrassing at this point.
WWE...STOP EMBRACING THINGS TO MAKE YOUR OWN. You are destroying any credibility this had, (if any, according to Fandangos' haters).

Whatever, at least they're putting thought into it.

Embarrassing. WWE takes something golden, pushes it way too hard, and destroys it.

dam wwe for taking advantage of something that is getting them positive buzz.
outside the world of wrestling instead of only getting coverage when a wrestler dies or gets arrested.
you all are ridiculous.

To me the initial Fandangoing was funny, because I felt like they were making fun of his stupid gimmick. Maybe that wasn't it, but they definitely don't get what made it interesting. Plus, instead of embracing it, he should have come out and told them to stop doing it, and it could have really helped him get over with the fans doing it to taunt him. But nope, they accidentally stumbled into something that could have made his dumb gimmick work, but they decided to fumble that opportunity.

is anyone really surprised? THE ONLY THING the WWE has cared about for the past year is social media. They just want to promote themselves for free, in a way to try and appeal to teenagers who are on their smartphones. So they "instruct" us how to download their app roll out a  ing twitter feed during the live shows (which essentially takes your focus OFF THE TV, so you can read what one of the wrestlers said on Twitter, which....if you have Twitter you can read it anyway, and if you don't? you don't care and don't want to read) Have fans vote for matches, but apparently just rig them anyway They run all these YouTube shows / pre-shows and interviews, and half the stuff involving storylines is done via those means even though they have over 5 hours of TELEVISION every week to carry their messages. oh and of course the ever popular Did You Know? graphics that are only used to tell us that "______ million people follow The Rock" or "Smackdown is the #1 show on Syfy" or my favorite "The WWE sells more DVD's than the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, Golf, Soccer, Water Polo, Women's Softball, Bowling & NASCAR" then it finally hit, a rowdy crowd went nuts for an awesome theme song they (the WWE marketing geniuses  ) saw an opportunity to corrall MORE people into believing they are the greatest thing ever and to get the social media dominance they soooooooooooo desperately want to achieve in effect driving it into the ground and making people roll their eyes at how pathetic they are in their begging to be "cool" and "relevant" this is what we've come to, this is what the WWE is now. The Social Media Era is in FULL force and there is no stopping it. |

It's like watching your parents doing something really embarrassing. They should have been laid back with it, instead of now trying to force it down our throats, even when it isn't something they came up with themselves. Seems like they love trying to jump on the bandwagon, and when they do, we all jump off it. Similar to that little kid at school who always tries his hardest to follow the cool kids and copy them in order to be accepted. They can't seem to work out that the stuff they try to force down our throats (IE Cena) we don't like/hate, and the stuff the fans come up with we all band together and join in. They should try to stop us from doing these things in a way that makes us rebel more, but not censoring us in doing so. It's similar to how anti-hero types rebel against authority and we love it (IE Punk). |

I thought it was an unwritten law that for anything to be considered "cool" and "trendy", it couldn't be forced. It had to be organic. Once it's forced, it becomes oversaturated and people rebel against it.
They could very easily end up killing Fandango.

Stan Stanski looks different from when he jobbed to Ryback. I was gonna say that same thing. Fandango-ing, to me, is pretty dumb...yeah, I get it, the tune is catchy but seriously, so is every other song that Jim Johnston has made... |
