It was apparently a mistake on WWE’s part to acknowledge the fact that Cesaro torn a Beach Ball during the Raw Tag Team Championship match at SummerSlam.
As we noted before it provoked fans and they took it as a challenge. It resulted in them bringing more beach balls to Raw next night and fans were reportedly playing with it all night long.
According to reports, there were a total of 22 beach balls released in the crowd during the latest Raw episode and one of them even made an appearance on television when John Cena waved at it during his match.
One would think that after the trouble guards faced in capturing these balls during Raw WWE would not allow them in their future events, though apparently, it wasn’t the case on SmackDown Live.
The beach ball mania continued on the Blue Branded Show as well and there were around 10 balls which were released in the crowd during the SmackDown episode last night. Though unlike Raw, there is no news of any fan being ejected from the arena for this.
Below is a video of the audience in the upper stands throwing beach balls down the crowd during the match of Usos and Hype Bros on this week’s episode of SmackDown:

Meanwhile, SmackDown’s Lead Producer and former WWE Star Road Dog commented on the whole incident and said that it was disrespect to all talents mentioning the beach balls seen on Raw:
Disrespect at its core. Not just to Finn, to all the talent.
