    Didn’t Austin say that the “what” chants were outdated? Yes chants > woo woo woo.

    His new “love interest” is going to be Layla. I think this will play out well for Mr. Ryder and help Layla potentially become the new face for this already broken Divas division that desperately needs a meaningful feud. I expect Eve to win the Divas title very soon and for her to find a new guy, possibly someone like a Miz or a Dolph Ziggler. Ryder reveals Layla to be his new girl and two careers get back on track in the process. Ryder moves on from this Eve nightmare and Layla defeats the Hoeski for the Divas Championship.

       You called it…Btw Layla is way too hot for Ryder

    Really glad to see this catching on. You probably didn’t hear them on TV, but there were tons of people chanting “YES!” at Wrestlemania, so I’d like to think the crowd I was in was the first crowd to really start doing it. Hopefully the casual fans get with it as well so it actually does end up replacing “what?” for good. I fear the kids may not want to do it because it’s a heel’s catch phrase, but we’ll just have to wait until next week to see, or maybe this Friday on Smackdown. If it does catch on, that’s awesome news for Bryan that will probably keep him as a main event talent.

      Yep, Daniel Bryan and “YES!” chants during Kane vs Orton, Cody vs Big Show and the divas match. I’m almost certain they chanted during CM Punk vs Jericho as well. Believe it or not but Bryan is getting a pretty decent sized fanbase and has grown so much since first being on NXT.

      As for friday night SD, I wouldn’t be surprised if they edited Bryan’s chants so he comes off as a heel. I also wouldn’t be surprised if they gave Sheamus some canned cheers since he’s been boo’d often as of late. Lets face it, Bryan is more over than Sheamus is at this point.

      • BrahmaBullRKO

        How badly could you hear them booing Sheamus after he won the title? We all booed the hell out of him, but how clearly was it on TV?

        Also, after how clearly the Bryan chants were on RAW last night, it would be really dumb of them to edit that out. Heel or not, Bryan is getting over big time.

        • Illmatic

          oh they didn’t allow any boos to be heard.  All i heard on tv was cheers, but they still sounded like a small crowd in the whole audience.  The YES! chants were also muffled throughout the whole show.

    • DAX

       Whasent the WHAT chant a heel catch phrase? Austin started to use it during the Invasion storryline i think.

      • http://twitter.com/FlipCity1017 Jager1017

        yes! it was.

        • DAX

           Yes!

  • Nightmare

    I like how They would say no! every time Henry hit Punk. That was classic.

    • AngelFlow

      I liked that and when Del Rio came to interrupt Sheamus and they chanted “Si!”

      • pwnez

        ADR got a bigger positive crowd reaction than Sheamus lol. 

      • http://twitter.com/FlipCity1017 Jager1017

        yes! lol was perfect. i love how everyone acknowledges it replacing what as well.

    The Yes Chants debut in 2004 with CM Punk vs. Daniel Bryan in Ring of Honor I knew one day after seeing their 9th Anniversary The Yes Chants would come to the WWE. Glad this day arrived YES! YES! Looking forward to Layla returning though to start this feud and eventually Beth & Natalya kick off

  • Guest

    Thanks, Austin. Now we’ll never get rid of him.

  • JR.399

    YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!

  • http://wrestledirect.com/ Kaos

    I enjoy the “yes yes yes” chant much more than “what” chant.

    • http://twitter.com/FlipCity1017 Jager1017

      i agree

  • Patriclese

    Oo! AUSTIN BACKED THE “YES!” CHANT! ITS OFFICIAL NOW!!!

    Daniel Bryan is a great wrestler but that “YES!” chant has really skyrocketed his popularity.

  • NoachShana626

    Respect from SCSA. Bryan is benefitting more from losing the title than Sheamus is from winning it. Smarks are running the show apparently

  • Fckyoujohncena
