There’s no denying the fact that the WWE live events come with a bunch of entertainment. Sometimes, it doesn’t happen in the ring but outside it in the arena. There have been incidents of fans in attendance getting into an altercation with each other while there is action going on in the ring. However, either this news has not reached one of the heads of the WWE, or he has chosen to ignore it. Whatever the case, now the repercussions of his recent utopian statement have brought him into trouble.
One of the WWE heads gave an unworldly statement
Recently, while speaking on the Colin Cowherd podcast, Nick Khan was asked to shed some light on the demographics of WWE. In response to this, Khan said something that seemed to good to be true..

He said, “40% of our audience are women, 50% of the folks who attend our live events attend with a child.”
Just after presenting these numbers, Dwayne Johnson’s longtime friend went on to add something that the WWE fans found hard to digest. Khan said, “There hasn’t been a fight in our stands, not jinxing it, in over 15 years.” For wrestling fanatics, this was something they couldn’t agree with. There have various accounts of fights in stands over the last few years itself.
However, to throw some more light on this, it was only last year when WWE fans got into a brawl in the arena while Roman Reigns was addressing the crowd. This is just one example, but there are plenty of such instances when a fight broke in the stands.

And that is why, fans couldn’t wait for a second to bash Nick Khan for misleading the audience.
Fans disagree with Nick Khan’s statement
As soon as Khan’s recent statement went viral, WWE fans took to the internet and straight away condemned it. Not only they expressed themselves on social media but even came up with instances that undermine the credibility of Khan’s remarks.
There was a fight in my section at Wrestlemania 38 during Flair v Rousey, they had more of the fans attention than the match

Didn’t someone rush the stage and attack Seth Rollins recently? And before that, Brett Hart at the HOF?

Near half your audience is women but "women don't draw" and "there's not an audience for Evolution"? Fuck outta here. (Also, there are absolutely fights, every WWE event I've been to has broken up at least one fight.) https://t.co/xk14k6nKrf
