4 legendary WWE/WCW moments that were ruined by fan interference
When one talks about professional wrestling, it goes without saying that fans are an integral part of the show.

This has been proven time and again over the course of the past several years.
The biggest event of the year, WrestleMania, boasts tens of thousands of fans packed inside stadiums to watch the action unfold. It only gets better on the night after, when fans from all over the world take over Monday Night Raw. There have been a string of moments that have gained legendary status thanks to fan involvement. The Rock vs Hollywood Hogan from WrestleMania 18 immediately comes to mind.
On the other hand, there have also been several iconic moments in wrestling history, that were ruined by fan interference. Let's take a look at four of them.
