Remember when Owen Hart died? Remember how good ole JR broke kayfabe and said
>Folks this is not part of the show What if Vince came on before the PPV and cut a promo that more or less said
>Tonight all you fans out there in the WWf universe may see some things that shock you. In our pursuit of groundbreaking programming that will have you on the edge of your seat we’re going to show you something that’s a little heh, Over The Edge. Now maybe you’ll think we’re going to far but stay tuned and you’ll see that that we’re just getting started. Everything played out the same way. But if you saw that promo, even when JR said something was really wrong, you’d have just thought it was part of the show. People watching at home did think it was part of the show. I only started thinking it was real when Debra and Jeff Jarrett looked like they were crying.
tldr people follow orders. The coincidence that NORAD had orders for a war games training sim and they were set to ignore all incoming emergency orders that morning is too coincidental.
