I'm watching the highlights on YouTube and looks like the crowd really wasn't into it and they piped in some fake loud chants (sounds like they're in the UK lmao, and such poor editing, see 3:30-3:50, also a little blip at 4:00-4:05). Is the hype already gone for him? I guess I'm with the crowd in attendance because I couldn't care less.

They were a fairweather crowd from what I saw, they mustered what was asked of them. And they were exhausted right at the end of a 3 hour show. Like idk how a crowd does that on a Monday night, gonna be at the raw wrestling show for 4 hours ish then what, go home and crash into bed?? I mean i barely get 2 spare hours in the evening after work on a Monday evening, just can’t imagine it.

Crowd definitely popped for his entrance. Chanted when expected.
I think people were on edge to hear what he was going to say.

They were listening to him? What do you mean? They’re not gonna interrupt him with cheers and chants because they were actually curious as to what he’s gonna say

I think there is a little trepidation with him and I think you might see that for the next few months with some crowds. He basically has trashed this company for nearly a decade. Some people may not be as forgiving as a lot of us are.

Is this what to expect now? Threads every week with Punk under a microscope, trying to catch a botch or a lackluster crowd response to show how Punk's not over or how he sucks?

Fans waited 10 years for his return................. So let's make them wait another 3 hours. That was absolute complete and utter idiocy.
You could almost hear the buzz in the crowd at the start of the show as everyone in the building was expecting Punk to walk out first. I don't think Orton got the pop he deserved either because the crowd wasn't expecting him and were disappointed.
Orton's return was overshadowed at Survivor Series so I think they gave him the opener rather than make him play second fiddle to Punk 2 days in a row. It wasn't the right decision. Sorry Randy. If he doesn't like it, make an angle out of it later.
I wouldn't have even had an opening (especially that god awful new opening). Show starts with the camera looking at the ring and "Cult of Personality" hits. Give the fans what they want.

LOL but you watched and you cared enough to make a thread about it and use time stamps as well. To me, it seems like you care a lot more than you're admitting.

My buddy was there last night and he said the crowd popped big for Punk, cheered every time his graphic was shown and chanted his name multiple times.
We have to remember this wasn’t Chicago.

It was a good, happy I’m back promo with a subtle shot to start the feud with Seth that maybe should have kicked off the show. The crowd was tired by the end of the night.

Raw/SD is miserable to watch in person with the constant breaks.

I just thought the promo was extremely weak.
Cringe worthy moment when he says "I'm home."
Dude was trying to out William Regal as a WWE stooge like a year and a half ago. Spent years being bitter about WWE and buried (his now boss) Triple H as much as he could when given the chance.
its a cash grab and THAT IS FINE. He is a WRESTLER in the WRESTLING BUSINESS.
But don't insult fans with bulls*** promos like this. It was eyerolling as hell.
I don't think fans are over him or he has no hype. I think once he's back in the ring wrestling and has a serious angle going on, fans will be excited.
