In many sports competitions, you can often see enthusiastic fans holding up self-made slogans to cheer for their favorite teams or athletes. This is also a favorite scene of the game broadcast unit. However, in the American WWE wrestling match, an “RPG war” continued under the table through the slogan, and the prelude to the war was started by fans of the well-known RPG “Final Fantasy” series.
The foreign media “Kotaku” reported that Twitter user Botchamania first discovered this phenomenon in 2019. In the WWE game, a fan held up the slogan “FFVIII is underestimated”, it seems that he started the FF battle. Then another fan who disagreed took out “FF8 sucks” and “FF8 is dirty” in the game, and responded in the air. Another fan held up “FFX-2>FF8” in an attempt to draw more people into the war.

Another Twitter user, RRIVERA992011, recently collected new slogan wars, such as “”FF6″ is always the best (GOAT)”, “While they are still arguing about “FF8”, we still insist on “Final Fantasy Strategic Edition”. . Other players also learned after seeing it. For example, someone held up “Persona 5 sucks”, “Kingdom Hearts” is so bad, and some players even asked Nintendo to “put “Earth Adventure 3” in “Localization”, the battlefield gradually expanded from FF to the entire RPG world.

At present, the new coronavirus epidemic abroad is gradually under control, and the United States has also begun to unblock it. It can be expected that the slogan war between players will start again as the wrestling arena opens.
