Posting between commercials.

I wish you could see it too, they're really doing the right thing here, finally.

Show started with Vince in the ring and an empty arena. Vince seemed to be crying when he announced that Benoit, his wife, and son were all found dead in their home.

They just showed Benoit's win at the Royal Rumble 2004.

Sounds like they were very close!

Beautiful career spanning video package that also shows his wife and son, who are both gone as well. I'm sure they'll be playing this several times in the coming weeks.
