WWE veteran Vince Russo has expressed his belief that Dominik Mysterio and Seth Rollins should dial back their crowd interactions and focus on moving their segments forward on television.
While Dominik is regarded as one of WWE’s most despised villains, The Messiah is undeniably one of the most adored performers on the roster. Despite their contrasting characters, both wrestlers elicit strong reactions from the crowd.
Whenever Seth Rollins makes his entrance, WWE fans can’t help but join in and sing along to his theme music. On the other hand, whenever Dominik attempts to speak, he is met with a barrage of boos, rarely given a chance to utter a word.
In an episode of Sportskeeda Wrestling’s Writing with Russo, Vince Russo elaborated on his view that it’s acceptable for Dominik Mysterio and Rollins to entertain the crowd occasionally. However, he cautioned that if they continue to focus solely on pandering to the fans, they risk losing viewers at home who expect a faster pace.
Vince Russo Urges Dominik Mysterio and Seth Rollins to Limit Crowd Interaction for Improved TV Experience.
Vince Russo expressed that repeatedly focusing on crowd interactions is not ideal for television. He suggested that Dominik Mysterio and Seth Rollins should limit their actions to maintain viewer engagement. Russo warned that exceeding a certain threshold could result in losing the audience, emphasizing the challenges associated with televising a live event.
Furthermore, Vince Russo emphasized that if Dominik Mysterio were to ignore the crowd’s boos, it would likely provoke even stronger negative reactions from them. He acknowledged that TV viewers have numerous options and could easily switch channels if the show fails to meet their expectations.
“That’s the psychology behind it. If you ignore them, they’ll probably get even more fired up. As a television guy, when I watch a show and I get bored, I change the channel. That’s what’s happening to me during these moments. It’s like, ‘Come on, guys, let’s go!'” Russo asserted.
Given Vince Russo’s extensive experience, his argument about the show’s pace suffering due to performers indulging in crowd reactions holds considerable weight.
