As far as Sean getting the title, I think it was something that was a long time coming.
The reason that there wasn't really a reaction, (atleast IMO) is because it was kind of expected honestly. Sean had been screwed at the Clash and so I would assume that a lot of people had thought that since Sean had already been screwed that this was just gonna be a normal match and it was.
Now, another opinion here, but with so many new faces here and not having the years that some people have invested in OCW, there's not that big of a shock factor associated with a lot of people yet when someone gets the WHC. If they had been around say when Parker went on his spree of holding the title and then he got beat, then yeah, that would have been a holy shit moment.
Honestly I think we have to let people be here for a while to have the effect of what it means when someone drops the WHC.
Plus, another example, say I won the title, that would have been pages and pages of hell has frozen over, game was rigged, I fought a bot, etc. THAT would've definitely generated discussion, but I'm just speaking.
