Even in death, there was no brotherly love for WWE Chairman Mr. McMahon in Philadelphia.
Very few handmade signs in homage to the Chairman peppered the Wachovia Center as some of our fans fell to a hush at the beginning of ECW on Sci Fi. The fans in Philadelphia have been known for their passion and sometimes-harsh treatment of sports figures. And they had no mercy on Mr. McMahon, as many booed, flashed thumbs-down signs and rained catcalls in the Chairman’s memory as 10 metallic tings of the ring bell reverberated throughout the arena and McMahon's face appeared on the TitanTron.
A few “R.I.P Vince” signs were scattered in the audience. Some of our fans cheered and applauded the fallen Chairman, who presumably perished at the end of Raw when his limousine exploded. But mixed reaction aside, Monday’s tragic events shook the core of all of WWE and ECW.
