| Vince "death" angle to be dropped? | |

Lol, no, it's not and I don't think you should be making absolute standpoints like that without any logical thought to back it up. Yes, if the WWE was forcing wrestlers to spit on a carboard cut out of Guerrero to show just how much more they care about Vince's death than Guerreros death, THEN that would be wrong. Only then, would someone have any chance of convincing me that they're doing something in bad taste. Of course, I also point out that you're clutching at straws here, as you're relying on this example that has almost no resemblance to anything happening in the WWE right now. |

Yeah, because real wrestler hasn't died. But look back at Eddie's death: They had a tribute show. Now look at Vince's death: They had a tribute show. Both have many resemblances in it, such as a ten-bell salute, all the superstars standing on the ramp, the talking remembrance thing, and tribute matches. So if somebody like Edge died during this, they would be having a tribute for Edge, while paying homage to Vince McMahon at the same time. And while they make a big fuss over Vince's "demise," at the same time, they're going to do the same thing over Edge, thus making two different tributes at the same time, for a dead person and someone who is only playing dead. It worked for Sherri because all they had to do was talk about her for a minute, but if a big star dies, they're going to have to dedicate more than a minute of announcers talking to their memory. I don't think it could get much clearer than that: A real death takes priority of a fake death any day, especially if the fans know that Vince really didn't die. |

Vince had sex with the Undertakers mother, now he can come back from the dead. Storyline problem sorted. |

Ha. That is funny. They will have a storyline saying that Undertaker in is the son of VKM! |

PW Torch has posted a pretty good editorial as to why a lot of people are disliking the direction the McMahon angle has taken. I think it is relevant to this conversation, so I'll post it in its entirety.
Personally, I don't care that they are doing a death angle or a missing person's angle or whatever they are calling it. I hate the fact that they are recreating the Owen and Eddie tribute shows to get the angle over. I don't think I can explain it in detail without basically re-wording the above editorial, so I'll just save the typing and reading. If they didn't do things like have the 10 bell salute, the backstage memorial things, and other things that have been shown as non-storylined genuine displays of emotion from colleges, then I would probably enjoy this storyline. But after watching SD! and seeing how they followed it up on Raw, I think I've pretty much lost all interest in the storyline. It's a shame too, because I was really shocked and excited when the limo blew up last week. |

It depends when it is. He may be alive again before the ceremony happens anyway, so I wouldn't count against it. |

Great American Bash is too soon to end it. And 2008 is too long. I'm guessing maybe just before or just after Summerslam would be a good time. The people who don't like the angle because of Sherrie's death just need a good talking to from team RAW(Jimmy's C and 15) and then they wouldn't speak no more. Daniel Peck, I haven't seen him yet. Only pictures. Is he a good actor? Yes? No? |

They should carry it on to Summer Slam, to really make it this summers storyline. |

Not sure if this is a speculation on Cena being the one who "killed" Vinny. If so, this is going to get stupider by the minute to me. |

Ooooh. This sounds like it could be potentially interesting now. God knows Cena needs something else added to his "character". I like the idea. |

I agree with that. Not into a death angle, because it just screams "bullshit". It can't possibly endure, unless you plan to take the "dead" character off tv, FOREVER. We all know they won't do that; as soon as they want Vince back on tv, they come up with some stupid bullshit about "oh, he somehow survived", or blah, blah. A kidnapping angle would have been a lot smarter. It still would have had the shock value, seeing Vince get a drycleaning bag wrapped around his head, and stuffed into the trunk of a '78 Nova or something. It still would have the "our leader's gone" drama. They still could have "been concerned" every night. They could have had J.R. receiving "gifts" on tv, and opening the box to find Vince's thumb, or something. They could have had mysterious ransom demands. They could have had all kinds of shit. And then, when you want him back, you just culminate in the "rescue" scene, and you've got him back. A lot less messy than trying to explain how the dead guy is back in the ring. |

I'm glad I was right in this thread. WWE did the right thing by pretty much dropping the angle all together, and have Vince talk about Benoit. I just wonder, now: The two main things WWE was working for, Benoit going to ECW to elevate most of its stars, and the McMahon death angle are both gone. These are going to be an interesting few weeks. |

I'd like to stand by a few things.
Indeed.
Referring to the idea that this angle could make anyone truthfully doubt that a real death would occur.
No-one was ever disagreeing with that. Personally, I would still have no problems if they were to resume the Vince McMahon death angle a few weeks from now. |

With the angle dropped due to the Benoit Tragedy. I am curious to find out who was supposed to have done it. |

So that's two big pushes that Kennedy has been screwed out of. First, he was misdiagnosed with an injury when he was suppose to win the World Title from Undertaker. Instead, we watched Edge win that title. Now, he was going to get a big push out of this McMahon storyline.
