15 Notable Instances Of WWE Crowds Reacting Poorly To Roman Reigns

7. Battleground 2015 (St. Louis)

Wyatt's "anyone but you" snarl toward Reigns seemed to mirror the IWC's view of the company chosen one. While Wyatt wasn't exactly cheered wildly during his match with Reigns at Battleground, the crowd still wasn't latching onto Reigns, although they did pop for his big moves. Late in the match, when Reigns began tossing chairs into the ring with bad intentions, the fans at the Scottrade Center noticeably booed. Luke Harper got a decent reaction for his surprise interference, which was the keystone for rebuilding the Wyatt Family. When Wyatt lands Sister Abigail inside the ring, a very vocal section of the crowd counts to three loudly with the referee. While it was progress over the previous month, the feeling seemed to be that Reigns had hit a popularity wall, and wasn't going to bust through.
