its been a long time since i last logged in so i thought i would add a topic for topics sake.......does anyone else get annoyed when wwe fans are refered to as the WWE UNIVERSE? (crowd goes silent) they are fans just the same as in football or anything else.....it would be pathetic if for example at a football match the guy over the speaker system says and we welcome the chelsea universe here to old trafford for todays game....wouldnt make sense

Yes I agree the term is cringeworthy another daft use of jargon by the WWE marketing machine....Add it to a long list including 'superstars' 'divas' etc

Has there been a change in regards to the term 'fans' in WWE, Wasn't it the case that the word was banned by Vince yet as part of the 'Smark' Punk storyline it's been used frequently.

I think Punk was allowed to say all banned words in order to get his character over, Wrestler and Wrestling being two of the obvious words he'd emphasise

I can understand why WWE use the term "WWE Universe", as stupid as it is. They're terrified of losing the solid foundation of fans they already have, so if they give them a name and a sense of community, they're hoping that will give them a sense of loyalty to the WWE and they will continue to watch.

I doubt it works though. I doubt anybody is particuarly proud to be a part of the "WWE Universe".

Just been watching Best of WCW Nitro Special on Sky 1....

They just showed the moment where Bret Hart won the world title & joined the nWo...

Scott Standford in the WWE Studio's said 'what an astonishing moment for the WWE Universe!!!!' - Huh???? This happen in 2000 in WCW???

So if anbody is under any illusions lets just get this clear.... any wrestling promotions fans from any era whether the WWE owns the company or not is now collectively known as 'The WWE Universe'

Yeah I saw a bit of the earlier. Did note that Stanford said "After joining the NWO, Hogan told the WWE universe exactly what he thinks of them"
