WILKES-BARRE, Pa. – A night originally designated Mr. McMahon Appreciation Night turned deadly when the WWE Chairman’s limousine burst into a fiery explosion just moments after Mr. McMahon stepped into it. Permanently uprooting the world of sports-entertainment, the Chairman has been presumed dead in Wilkes-Barre, Pa.

Local authorities stated it was still too early to declare anything as fact, including exactly what caused the explosion, but described the blast as an apparent “car bombing.” They also revealed that as of 11:30 p.m. EST, no body had been recovered from the incinerated wreckage.

Firefighters were quick to assess the scene, taping off sections of the parking lot to protect the evident crime scene and safeguard scores of onlookers – mostly our fans – from potential injury. Despite the intense heat and ubiquitous clouds of black smoke, countless people spilled out of the arena to get a closer look at the chaos they had just seen happen live on the TitanTron. Moments earlier, the sold-out crowd came to a still hush as they speechlessly watched from their seats.

“By the time we arrived on the scene, the entire automobile was on fire,” explained a Wilkes-Barre firefighter on the scene. “It was like an inferno, and our guys were doing whatever they could to contain it as quickly as possible. In my 27 years with the fire department, I’ve never seen anything like that.”

The emblazoned limousine was engulfed by flames that reached skyward at estimated heights of more than 50 feet. The sight of the charred debris led to speculation that there was no conceivable way anyone could have escaped from the limo alive. Early assessments from local firefighters and police officers sent a similar feeling regarding the probability of the Chairman’s survival.

“We’re doing our best to respect the McMahon family and the fans of WWE,” the firefighter said. “However, with that said, we have not found anything – there hasn’t been confirmation that Mr. McMahon’s body was extracted from the limo.”

As the physical body of Mr. McMahon remains to be uncovered, perhaps the most perplexing piece to this puzzle is the Chairman’s uncanny, almost clairvoyant premonition of tonight’s grim events. Over the last few weeks on WWE programming, the swaggering, well-off billionaire seemed to unravel right before the eyes of millions. Speaking of a threatening presence that lurked in his foreseeable future, Mr. McMahon even cited the looming of a “black cloud” last week – a cloud very similar to the post-combustive smoke that billowed above his limousine tonight.

Was this evening an eerie prophecy fulfilled for Mr. McMahon, given his recent premonitions? Or was it simply a fateful execution of coincidence? The ominous reality is that what was brushed off as incoherent ramblings of a broken man and former ECW World Champion actually may have proven to be an exercising of a recently discovered sixth sense.

This incident is the first of its kind since the assassination of political figure Orlando Letelier in Washington, D.C. in 1976. Sources say that given the nature of the apparent car bombing, under law federal authorities will be called in for a more thorough investigation that would supersede local Pennsylvania authorities.

Check back with WWE.com as we continue to follow developments in the most shocking incident in sports-entertainment history.


I don't know what to say except, what's going on? What match is this setting up? Is this the way McMahon ends his career?

It was a camera cut, but I think they're going to play an angle off of this that's going to make Vince a ton of money.

Added a pic for you in the first post.

An awesome ending to RAW lol. This leads the way open for a who done it like the way Stone Cold tried to find out who ran him over. If they do this right, it could be great fun to wtach and great for the WWE.

Question is, who will take over RAW now, will Shane, Coachman or will they bring in someone else?

I got an answer to that question, Heyman or Bischoff, simple as that. You get one of those two to run the show, and you got an on-screen character who is great right away

I would have loved to have been a normal fan and not been in the Internet Wrestling Community and saw this. I would not know what to think.

lol sorry but it is all over wwe.com and I thought the headline is cool but it does not give to much away and you can not go on any wrestling site and not see this. All news is good news :)

Be awesome if it was true, well not for him or his family but ratings and website traffic.

I think McMahon got in the car and then he rushed out the other side of it which u didnt see and they had the fake foot which u see and then they pulled the door shut with a rope or something and BOOOOMM!!

I actually read the explosion was practiced the night before, so maybe it was was a camera cut with vince walking to the limo, turn off the cameras to let him out then turn them back on and explode it.. idk. but anyways it was very well done imo, they made it look pretty real.

Is everyone really this blind?

This is gonna be the set-up for the Jackass angle for Summerslam. Did anyone notice that Steve-O was the only person who said nice things in his short interview about McMahon. And those two people behind McMahon when he was outside could be two actors from JackAss. This angle could be that they played a prank that went horribly wrong, or McMahon is in on it as well. If its a prank gone horribly wrong, the WWE stars will step up and try to defend their Chairman in a match at SS.

I don't think they are photoshopped and to be honest, I don't like this angle with the Jackass crew, i see no point in it.

Those pictures arent photoshopped.

They have the video of the explosion on Dailymotion.

Oh and I know how they did it.

They filmed the explosion on Saturday and Sunday, then cut straight to the video as soon as Vince's door shut.
