It's worse what with some idiot(s) equating the current "BORING!" chants 
that they started to the "You Suck!" that just sorta developed on it's 
own for Kurt Angle.

It's a really bad idea to start with, but if you're gonna stick the 
"boring" label on anyone, make DAMN sure it's on someone who is NOT 
boring.  Doesn't do boring promos, doesn't have bad or slow-paced 
matches (Storm fits in the latter category, but I'm trying to apply this 
globally).  That way the "boring" chant can really be portrayed as 
something that the crowd does to get under whoever(s) skin.

As it is, Storm's new gimmick really gave Rico's new look a dead crowd 
for a debut.

And God help anyone who has a slow-paced let alone a bad match.

And how does this play at house shows where they're supposed to be 
wrestling a more psychologically-oriented style to hopefully reduce 
injuries?

Dunno.  It was one of the reversal, reversal things, so it could've been 
mistiming on both their parts.
