>>9765618It's a catch-22. If you try to ignore it, stop it or or play along with it, it's just going to keep happening even more. Then you have wrestlers who get pissed because the crowd won't respond to them at all because they are of the era where they're used to hearing all those crappy smark chants, so they think that's the way it's supposed to be.
Wrestling dug this hole back in the Attitude Era and has not been able to get out of it since. I've been to shows where the whole crowd would take over the event and it wasn't about the wrestling anymore, but how far of a level they could push the antagonism. This inevitably leads to fans jumping over the barricade and trying to touch wrestlers, get in the ring themselves (like the Eddie vs Edge incident) because rule 1849 of the metatheatrical wall has been broken in the business.
