One Arizona fan went too far with his sign and the WWE tried their hardest for it not to make it on TV.
On Friday night, the WWE traveled to Arizona which featured a classic promo from ‘The Rock” in which he trashed the Phoenix/Glendale area for being “cactus loving crackheads.”
During The Rock’s appearance fans noticed that the screen kept randomly going black.

Apparently, the WWE was trying to censor out a fan’s sign that read “Die Rocky Die” and was visible before they blacked out the screen according to PWinsider .
According to PWInsider, the reason #Smackdown kept going black was because the network was censoring a "Die Rocky Die" sign in the crowd. pic.twitter.com/yvwqAbOpvf

If you’re suffering blackouts on the Fox broadcast in America it is due to a fan holding up a die rocky die sign allegedly Unsure why the sign was allowed in but yeah #SmackDown pic.twitter.com/883qK0x7Mh

It’s unclear what happened to the fan, but I’m sure the WWE had him removed from the building after the commercial break.
