Is there anything worse than Stone Cold Steve Austins new catch phrase?
WHAT? WHAT? WHAT? - What the hell, give it a rest. His has to have the longest and most frustrating interviews in history.

To each their own. I hadn't watched wrestling in about 3 years. I just recently started watching again when R.V.D. joined the WWF & all the WCW guys.
I always hated Stonecold until now. my roomates & some friends about 15 have been watching RAw the past few weeks & we all think Austin's "WHat?" is one of the funniest & greatest gimmicks we have ever seen on wrestling. I thought his speecj last night was awesome, & I was at the RAW last week for Triple H's return & when your there & the whole audience is yelling it in time w/ AUstin it is hilarious.
The only thing I don't like is when the crowd does it during other wrestler's promo's.That is just awful.

A lot of the wrestlers have expressed frustration about being greeted with the "What? What?" from the crowd every time they're trying to do an interview or making comments. It needs a rest.

I agree with most everyone else here...
It was funny when he was the only one who did it, but when the fans do it all of the time, it gets annoying and stupid.
Last nigh when HHH came out, they were trying to do it to him, but at least he was able to ignore it and they stopped. It's like they do it when they are bored or something...
It is starting to get old. It isn't as funny as it was when he first started doing it.

WHAT???????????
hehe . In all fairness its pretty funny. Even Steve Austin said that he finds it funny that they do it during other interviews. They leave themselves so open to it. Thats why Kurt Angle and a few others now play off it. HHH did a good job of playing off of it and the fans didnt do it anymore. But when austin does it WHAT"S are it

A few years ago in ECW there was a mid-level wrestler named Hack Myers. He was also known as "The Shah". Whenever he hit someone during a match, the fans would shout, "SHAH!". Whenever he got hit, they would shout, "SH*T!". I can imagine that being the next step in the whole "WHAT" craze. Hopefully, it will just die out soon.

Gotta admit I always thought it was pretty funny; that and Stone Cold getting messages from his wrist watch 
WWF is now even hawking a vhs/dvd of their funniest moments.

It gets funny to an extent, but when the crowd chants "What" when a different wrestler, a heel to be more specific, it's gone to far. They should only say it when Stone Cold is talking or the person he is talking to, but otherwise it's kinda hilarious!

It is funny at first, but the last couple of weeks have been to much. The "WHAT" makes his interviews way to long. If he is going to do it, he should shorten them down some.
