WWE Superstars Honored The Victims Of Las Vegas Terror Attack
Oct 3, 2017 at 1:44 PM
The world witnessed yet another tragic incident in the name of a terror attack in Las Vegas. Almost 22000 people gathered for a music festival that suffered an open firing by a psychopath killer. This caused 59 lives to be taken away whereas 527 people are reportedly injured.
According to the reports, Stephen Paddock, the gunman fired shots remorselessly to the crowd. A country music festival was going on at the Mandalay Bay Resort in Las Vegas when the 64-year old terrorist went ballistic.
As per the reports from the Telegraph UK,
“Stephen Paddock, 64, killed at least 59 people and injured a further 527 when he fired on concert-goers from the vantage point of a 32nd-floor hotel room in Las Vegas.
Armed with as many as 20 weapons, including automatic and semi-automatic rifles, Paddock opened fire at 10.08pm on Sunday (5.08am UK time) in a shooting spree that lasted between five and 10 minutes.”

Considering that WWE Raw was scheduled within hours of the terror attack, we expected a tribute on television for which is deemed to be the deadliest mass shooting in the history of United States of America. The entire roster of Monday Night raw came out to pay tribute to the victims of the tragedy.
Quite interestingly, Vince McMahon and Shane McMahon were also present during the moment of silence which is breaking kayfabe characters, on the screen.
ISIS, the terror organisation, has claimed responsibility for the attack which was later rubbished by the FBI agents. They have found no clue of any connections with the group, till now. For the entire evening of WWE Raw, many superstars took their twitter handles to let their hard feeling know regarding this hard time:
The situation in Las Vegas is so senseless & beyond tragic. Condolences to those who’ve lost, and hope for those recovering.
