Ultimate Warrior Raw Tribute Show: 8 Things We Expect To See

8. A Tribute From Vince McMahon

In scenarios such as this, Vince McMahon has always stood up as the voice of WWE. We witnessed this in the case of the 9/11 tribute show, the Guerrero tribute and Benoit memorial. Vince prides himself on being the leader, the man who delivers the opening tribute address. Whether that will be the case this year with Warrior is up in the air right now. The chairman hasn't been seen on TV for a while, his inclusion could be awkward for WWE storylines relating to the Authority. Then again, WWE could just disregard fiction for the opening five minutes of Raw, in that respect it would give the Warrior tribute more distinction if the narrative was temporarily abandoned. Plus, this is meant to be the 'reality era' after all. The other factor in if Vince will deliver a speech is his continued withdrawal from leadership positions. He has handed more and more responsibility over to Stephanie and Triple H, so there's a chance it will be Hunter delivering the opening tribute this Monday. It shouldn't be. Vince himself doing the speech will mean so much more given his storied history with Warrior, it's the right thing for the Chairman to do, he must step up and offer his memories.
