I'm just amazed the audience picked the option that was already advertised and had a commercial ready :side:

And shows the WWE still has a decent idea how to promote if they can influence a crowd to vote their way. Kinda glad that overall, they trump the smarks.

Fan voting has been a joke ever since "Team Hell No" was chosen over "Team Friendship"

Fan voting has been a joke ever since "Team Hell No" was chosen over "Team Friendship"
"Former WWE creative writer Kevin Eck wrote a new blog where he talked about fan voting on the WWE App. Eck said that during the period he worked for the company, from 2011 to 2014, "it was all completely legitimate.
"I know many will be skeptical, but it's the truth. I can tell you that there were times when I and other members of the creative team suggested to Vince McMahon that we work the results to get the desired outcome, but he always refused to 'compromise the integrity of the voting.'" -Nodq.com

Take that for what it's worth.....if the poles were rigged than saying Bryan being Superstar of the Year was a work.

I believe they aren't rigged, I'm just upset that people chose that name because it had a semi-curse world in it instead of the GOAT Team Friendship.

Also, that whole article was interesting, especially the bit about Piper.
