A little surprised all we get is the graphic. I don't even remember if they made mention on the broadcast.

In the Observer two weeks before this, Dave dropped a rather random-but-ominous note that WCW had brought in Ted DiBiase to co-host the last PPV in audio form for either the Internet or the hotline, because Rude had no-showed it. Unrelated deaths occurring on the same day are sort of a morbid curiosity of mine--this Monday, of course, was also the same day as the Columbine High massacre.
