Crowds that chant “too sweet woop woop” or “sweet” after a 2 count, STFU.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned wrestlers watching TV sideways yet.

Some of my Professional Sports Wrestling Entertainment annoyances are:
When the WWE Championship Title match doesn't close the show.
Champions in Non-Title matches.
Champions not defending their Championship Title Belts within 30 days.
Championship Title Belt straps that are not black.
Mattel not producing WCW and ECW Championship Title Belts.
Chris Jericho without a Championship Title Belt.

Championship introductions: I know some people feel this gives a match a "bight fight feel" I freaking hate them. You get a badass entrance that gets you jacked up for the match and then you have to wait a few minutes while the wrestlers just stand there in the ring opposite each other while we listen to them get announced.... even though the audience has heard them be announced a million times before. Being Told What Happened Five Minutes Ago: I would love to know how much time is spent on RAW, Smackdown and unfortunately even NXT telling us what happened 5 to 10 minutes earlier in the show, it is freaking annoying! I hate the recaps too. As great as the Becky pregnancy announcement was on Raw, they really didn't need to show it to us 5 more times that night. I don't know what it would be now but years ago (I think around 2012ish) I actually timed an episode of Raw and out of 3hrs 15mins, only 1hr 15mins was actually matches or promos. The rest was ad breaks and recaps. It's what drove me away from watching live back then.

Most fan chants other than straight up chanting a wrestler's name. (That said, I do love the Ole chant).
Wrestlers not holding the tag ropes and referee's still allowing the tag (looking at you, AEW).
When a wrestler has his opponent in a headlock and neither of them are selling it.
Similar to the last one, but a lack of facial expressions in modern wrestling.
The overuse of Superkicks and DDTs to the point where they mean absolutely nothing anymore.
A lack of serious vignettes to tell us about new talent. Austin Theory has been on the main roster for what, 3 months now? I still don't know a single thing about him, his character or his motivation.
Someone's gimmick being that they're just "a really good wrestler".
Cartoony, non-believable heels like The Grand Marshal of the Possum Day Parade Baron Corbin.
Entrance music playing during a run-in.

Oh how could I forget ... WHAT!? Oh my god seriously... I literally cannot handle main roster WWE crowds just because of that damned chant. FFS just let them cut the bloody promo, rather than trying to turn it into a freaking call and answer song.

I don't know why, but I cringe when the crowd shouts "One Fall" after the announcer says the following contest is scheduled for one fall.

The long haired guy and his mother in the front row of every WWE PPV for the past 3 - 4 years.
The one thing I'm enjoying about the 'Covid era' is not saying their faces.

*Trunks in general, but particularly very small ones like Randy Orton and CM Punk wear.
*Annoying crowd chants like "What?!", and the "USA!" chant when it has zero to do with a storyline/wrestler at the time. I also hated the "Rock and Roll" chant back in the NWA days.
*Spots where wrestlers telegraph moves like HBK's pre-SCM stomping, or Cena's posturing prior to the 5-Knuckle Shuffle.
*Run-ins accompanied by music, especially when the wrestler in the ring just stands there and looks shocked while someone who is an obvious threat to him/her comes to the ring.
*Spots where the opponent has to do something illogical for the move to work, ala wrestlers bending over for Cena's top-rope legdrop or guys continually punching Hulk Hogan as he Hulks up.
*Backslap tags.
*Wrestlers making their own matches, especially when title belts are involved.
*Illogical or "cinematic" moments where something out of the realm of possibility happens.
*Cameras in the halls and lockers rooms that wrestlers don't acknowledge, especially when revealing some big secret.

1) contract signings for any title. So you can come to a show and wrestle anyone just by asking for a ref or challenging them, but a title match neeeds a special contract.
2) fans. Going to conventions and hearing them talk as if they know what really goes on behind the curtains is annoying.

Back in the JCP/NWA days, they would have a big steel cage main event (Road Warriors, Dusty & Nikita Koloff vs. The Four Horsemen). 5 minutes before the TV show would end, they would introduce the teams and without fail you would hear David Crockett say "Fans, we are out of time!" as the match would barely get started.
Any HHH contract signing. Didn't anyone think to check under the table for the sledgehammer? GASP!
Arm wrestling contests. It always takes the heel way too much time to finally get as grip that he's comfortable with. Then he ends up either losing or getting disqualified for "dirty tactics".
Food fights at Thanksgiving. Every freaking time.
Any time a cake is brought to the ring, it's going in someone's face. Tee hee hee.

Entrance music playing on run-ins, especially when the person is "not supposed to be there". Well who played his music then? And why?
Always been a pet peeve of mine.
