I kinda agree with Raven on this one. No matter how great the match is, if the crowd isn't into it then the match doesn't seem as special. Rock/Hogan at WM XVIII isn't necessarily a great match, but the fact that they had the live audience eating out of their hands and waiting on every move definitely made the match much better to watch.
Bah, only if you were actually there to see it does it make that much of an impression on you or the match. I suppose if you turn the volume waaaaaay up on your television set the crowd will influence the viewing of the match, but it's hardly powerful otherwise.
I know what you mean, but great audience involvement really makes a match stick out. You can tell that something is getting over by how the crowd responsds to it.
