WWE Live Crowd Refuses to Boo Bobby Lashley – It’s true that WWE’s attempts to designate talent as heels or babyfaces doesn’t always align with how fans perceive and support certain wrestlers. Examples like Kofi Kingston, Sami Zayn, and Bryan Danielson showcase instances where fan support pushed for these wrestlers to be positioned as main eventers, regardless of their designated roles.
In the case of Bobby Lashley, he has predominantly been portrayed as a heel in recent years, whether during his time with The Hurt Business or his current alignment with The Street Profits, leading to a heel turn for the latter on SmackDown.
Interestingly, despite being positioned as a heel, there have been instances where fans have rallied behind Lashley. For example, during a recent SmackDown episode, where Lashley defeated Butch, a babyface, the audience showed support for Lashley, cheering him on.
Similar reactions were observed at house shows over the weekend in Maine, where fans reportedly cheered for Lashley, especially when he and Angelo Dawkins faced off against The OC (Karl Anderson & Luke Gallows).
These reactions from the audience might prompt WWE to reconsider their plans for Lashley and the faction he’s associated with, potentially leading to a change in direction towards portraying them as babyfaces. The organic support from fans could influence WWE’s storytelling and character development moving forward.
