From what I've read so far (since RAW is airing right now on the east coast) is that Vince McMahon comes out to the ring in the empty arena and pretty much drops his fake death storyline and confirms that Benoit and his family have passed away. I'll be watching here on the west coast at 8pm. | |

I'm wondering what the rest of the story is .. did he come home too late? did he find them already deceased then take his own life? I'll guess we'll find out what happened shortly. Very sad story indeed. | |
