How did the fans react to WWE ThunderDome?
The WWE universe was excited and gave their awestruck reactions to the WWE ThunderDome. However, there were some members of the WWE Universe who weren’t very excited.
From the hard camera angle, the setup of the virtual fans is distracting, messy and almost headache inducing – but this angle… Wow! Really impressive.
It’ll be interesting to see how it plays out on video rather than still image. https://t.co/oA4LZHfMIV

It’s how the sound will be, are people gonna woo and such sitting in their living room and not physically amongst other people where there is that community involvement. If its effectively just ppl sitting quietly watching a show then I question the effectiveness.

I can’t wait for this and it gives fans from all over the world a chance to be in the crowd even if it’s not in person pretty cool

I’d rather had just had it with neat GFX for entrances and so on rather than bad zoom cams

The fiend showing up would look pretty cool when random faces go out. Or have the fiends face slowly replace the fans faces
