I would have more of a problem if they didn't acknowledge it as legit. They need to have interviews with people sharing memories, ringing the bell, the need to get some VKM armbands on too. The more you think about it, this is NOT a slap in the face to Eddie or Owen or anybody that has ever died. This is a completely seperate instance and we, as the viewers, have to understand that and seperate that. Seperate reality from TV, it isn't really that difficult.
The same crowd of people that will piss and moan about how awful and disrespectful this is, I'm sure are the same people who grind their teeth everytime they hear a news reporter blame GTA for a school shooting. Seperating fiction from reality, thats all it is. We KNOW Mr. McMahon ISN'T dead. But it's a goddamn storyline and we can come to terms with it without having a hissy-fit.
