- W-O Newsletter reader 'ShadyRudy' attended yesterday's Smackdown!/ECW TV tapings in San Antonio, TX., and sent in word that security had a tough job to keep out all the signs related to Chris Benoit. Anyone in the stands who displayed signs such as 'RIP', 'Future Hall of Fame', 'Eddy & Chris' and other related signs were taken away. Vince McMahon kicked off the ECW on Sci Fi TV tapings yesterday by making the following announcement. "Last night on Monday Night Raw, the WWE presented a special tribute show, recognizing the career of Chris Benoit. However, now some 26 hours later, the facts of this horrific tragedy are now apparent. Therefore, other than my comments, there will be no mention of Mr. Benoit tonight. On the contrary, tonight's show will be dedicated to everyone who has been affected by this terrible incident. This evening marks the first step of the healing process. Tonight, the WWE performers will do what they do better than anyone else in the world - entertain you."
