They always Slip up:roll:

To follow up on how WWE taped the exploding limo footage, WWE had a team of professional stunts from Zenith Pyrotechnology heading up the operation. Permits to produce the stunt was acquired a week ago which made for great timing considering The Sopranos ended on Sunday with what many people consider an unsatisfying finale according to Andy Kratz who was involved with the stunt.

With the beauty of video editing, WWE managed to combine the footage taped on Saturday and Sunday as well as the live feed into one dramatic scene.

If you look closely, you will notice that while Vince is walking towards the limo, there is no water next to the car on the floor while once the shot was cut from a different angle you can notice water on the floor. The scene was then cut to the pre-taped segment once the angle was switched, with one take of Mr. McMahon coming in and closing the door and one take from the exact angle the limo exploding.

The WWE website shows a picture of the WWE Corporate Headquarters in Connecticut, with the WWE flag at half mast in honor of the presumed dead Mr. McMahon. But the photo also shows the American Flag on the same building, flying at full mast. That's because it is a federal crime to display the American flag against regulation. You can fly the flag at half mast in honor of someone who has died, but you would be breaking the law to fly it for someone who is only pretending to have died. I guess kayfabe isn't strong enough to break the flag code for a website picture. I just thought it was funny, as they are doing a great job of treating this all as if Vince really died on the website and everything, I'd have thought they'd crop the photo or something to maintain that storyline.

Just another fake thing about wrestling. Tsk tsk. Ah well, not a fan anyway, so it doesn't really matter if it was all a publicity stunt, I don't watch it anyway.

I saw how Vince "died" by getting into a limo and having it blow up. I am sure that the storyline will not make sense plus he will come back by saying that he faked his death for people to remember him.

Its obviously fake because they were "presuming" he was dead. Now isnt that strange? wouldnt you know if someone is dead if he's in a car thats blown to flames. Wouldnt the firemen have uncovered the body? so how is his death presumable?
