4 Ups And Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (Nov 24th)
3. FanTango Should Sit This One Out
You know a character is dead in the water when fans sit on their hands when someone debuts. Save for a miracle, the new and improved Fandango is officially on life support 24 hours after re-debuting. It really is a sad statement Fandango beat Chris Jericho at WrestleMania XXIX last year, his entrance music caught on, and fans danced along to it during his matches. He also had a smoking valet. So what does WWE do with him? Take away his valet and her backup, and now change his entrance music, the most memorable part of his character. Jericho is probably wishing hed lost to someone else at Mania. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SkZ7S4MQZrg You have to feel for Fandango, who comes out to a crowd that has been raucous all night, and theyre stone cold silent. Then to make matters worse, they start signing his old theme song. Oh, and they chanted for a former wrestler who used to work here.
