Former WWE writer Vince Russo has expressed doubts about the authenticity of the crowd reaction towards Dominik Mysterio, sparking a heated debate among fans. During a recent interview on WrestleBing, Russo questioned whether the intense booing of Mysterio could be sustained for an extended period of time, suggesting that the heat might be artificially generated by the company. According to Russo, maintaining such a high level of vitriol is physically impossible, and he believes that WWE is piping in the reaction to create the illusion of a more passionate audience.
Russo’s comments come as no surprise, given his extensive experience in front of various crowds throughout his career. He has witnessed firsthand the incredible energy and passion of live audiences, and he’s convinced that the level of animosity towards Mysterio is not entirely genuine. “Bro, you cannot physically keep up that level of heat for so long,” he emphasized. Russo’s skepticism has sparked a heated discussion among fans, with some agreeing with his assessment and others defending the authenticity of the crowd’s reaction.

Despite the controversy surrounding Mysterio’s popularity, it’s undeniable that the wrestler has become a polarizing figure in the WWE. Whether or not the heat is genuine, it’s clear that Mysterio has caught the attention of fans and is a significant part of the company’s future plans. The WWE has even released an “isolated audio” video from a recent episode showing the reaction Mysterio received from the Texas crowd, which further fuels the debate about the authenticity of the heat.
As the debate continues to rage on, fans are left wondering whether the intensity of the crowd’s reaction towards Mysterio is truly organic or if it’s being artificially generated by the company to create a more dramatic narrative. Regardless, one thing is certain – Dominik Mysterio has become a lightning rod for attention in the WWE, and his polarizing persona is sure to continue to dominate the conversation for the foreseeable future.
