Very stupid.Like 2000 WCW type stupid.

 

[Shadow]

did u think it was stupid?

Yeah.

The thing about it is I don't know where that storyline could have lead too. Would he just say he faked his death?

 

[Mr. Manhattan]

They would've used Undertaker to resurrect him

 

[The Antagonist]

I thought it was ridiculous, but also thought it was something interestingly different. Until I found out a week later that Benoit murked his kid and wife and then I was like

 

[So UnThotful]

Very stupid.Like 2000 WCW type stupid.

what made it worse was Vince explanation why he did it

'i wanted to see who would want mourn me/out for my money'

It was horrible. Especially the part where Paul London laughed and they got heated cause it made it look like he was responsible.

I remember Paul in a shoot explain that they just told him to be backstage but he didnt know why so he was just chillin and joking and laughing then Vince came around the corner and the camera just happened to show Paul smiling... He got set up brehs

All it needed was for Vince to step out of da burning cah, walk straight to da camera, and say "Well, I guess that didn't work." Da ratings would reach da moon. Da McMahon gimmick would finally be ova.

Ok if I remember correctly this started when Vince had beef with Bobby Lashly for siding with Donald Trump and help get Vince get his head shaved at Wrestlemania 23. Bobby was ECW Champion at the time so as revenge Vince beat Lashly to become ECW Champion aka Doo-Rag McMahon "The Doctor of Hardcore". Vince got booked to defend his belt against Bobby on a ppv, during one of the backstage segments Vince had a sad look on his face telling Shane that "I feels a dark presense, something bad is gonna happen to me". Shane was like thinking that Vince was just shooked about losing the belt but Vince was like "Nah... it ain't about the belt it's something else" leading to Vince walking to his doomed limo explosion fufilling the dark presense he was sensing all along.


The thing that pissed me off the most was that between the "Vince McMahon is dead" storyline and Benoit's bullshyt that Sensational Sherri's death was overlooked, she didn't get the dedication that she deserved in my opinion.
