WWE Audiance Plants.

I wonder how they work plants. I'm not talking about those involved in story lines or promos, but ones that would start off chants. Like do they hire some random people from each city, or do they have a team of people?

No plants.People chant just to chant.

Since it's a constant job, I would imagine they'd have a group of people designated to do that and maybe certain sign plants talent will point out when talking. I would imagine that it'd be a little more costly to hire-out to a guerrilla marketing group or similar for something so small. -- Though on the other hand, you'd only need a plant group for a few televised events before they'd simply hook into the audience.

I went to the Raw Newcastle show when they came to the UK. There was an American guy who had the 7 17 11 Best in the World shirt that you could only get in Chicago, and some American sounding chaps chanting for Justin Roberts and referee Chad Patton. But the main chants I think came from the locals. We gave Drew McIntyre a nice babyface pop too

They pipe it in over the PA system.

They don't "plant" anyone to start chants. But the past Raw that was here in KC, I was actually there to work for Sprint/WWE. I would sit in the spots where people got up and left. When they come back I got up and left. It's always on the hard camera side. That was my first time ever doing that.

Considering that Cena barely got a Let's go Cane/Cena sucks chant going last night I doubt they hire "plants for chants"* It doesn't take much to get chants going if you've got a crowd of people. It's just a natural response.

*I'm hereby claiming "Plants for Chants" as my name for a business providing just that so no-one else can steal it without paying me!

Fcw talents!!!

[xAzureSkye]

I think a few people would start, then the others would follow.

or else a wrestler would try to get one started like Kelly did

Fcw talents!!!

I recall when Mark Henry rammed Sheamus through the barrier, they had the FCW plants there to sell the angle. Also, I think guys like the "We hate Cena" black guy with the glasses is another form of plant they do, along with that Edge sign guy.
