Honestly feel bad for the guy. Works his ass off every day and feels like this at the end of one of the more important matches in his career. The crowd tonight was a massive let down for several matches.

I think the crowd was just getting restless by his match. I know I was!

Crowd was dead after AJ/Cena.. both title matches tonight had no reaction at all. But tbh I thought Rollins vs Balor was going to be a better match tonight especially with it being NO DQ..was kinda let down.

wwe took the lazy route once again. name a belt "universal" and can do many things with it but yet it's just a red strap and nothing different than the smackdown belt or women's title.

Well he's not wrong to be a little pissed at the crowd for investing more time and energy into the design of the title than the actual match.

I was pulling for Rollins to win, but that belt is really bad so I don't feel bad for the reaction it got. As far as Rollins and Balor go... I was extremely disappointed, like I stated in another thread I wanted to see some chain wrestling, a few spots and some high flying action. Cena and AJ delivered imo, and this is coming from some who doesn't like Cena.

I was at the show. The crowd was booing the title before they even unveiled it because they could tell it was the same exact shape as the WWE & Women's Championship. And you know what? It was hideous. This company knew how much crap they were getting for naming it the WWE Universal Championship so, AT THE VERY LEAST, they should've made sure they created the best looking belt in the entire company. Instead, they took the same design as TWO OTHER BELTS and made the strap red. Awful.
What a terrible show.

They stopped booing the title a few minutes into the match. It wasn't as if they got the treatment of Orton/Cena at RR 2014.

He's got a point. If I were him or Finn I'd be pissed. Like really? If you wanna boo, boo the guys in the ring (I can't see a crowd booing either guy but you get why in saying)) not the god damn belt.

I don't know much about the demon character, but I've seen what Balor could do and Seth is great too.

I agree about the context of the match ,in most circumstances, should always be on the reason the guys would be competing. For the right to be champion, moreso, than taking a belt home with them. However tonight was a little different......this title is a brand new title. No historical lineage....no proven track record. So, perhaps if WWE would have went the extra mile and made the physical belt LOOK more than a second rate belt, even if it was also ugly, there wouldn't have been a backlash to it. Hes right, the focus should have been on the two guys having the match. .......that being said, that belt sucks. Period.

Both men work their ass off, I get that the people paid for their attendance and have the right to chant however they feel, but a treat have respect for the men in there. Both are amazing athletes and just didn't get much from the crowd.

They were fighting for the ugliest Title in WWE, what did they expect? The crowd was just letting them know.
