“Long Live Owen Hart” - WWF RAW is WAR [5/24/1999]
When the news stinger showed up on television touting the “shocking death of a WWF performer live at a wrestling event”, I thought that the upcoming newspiece would definitely be about Mick Foley. I never once assumed it would be about Owen Hart, and I watched the entire Tribute RAW the next day in complete disbelief.
Owen Hart’s death didn’t affect me in the way that Benoit’s did, but this was the first time I could recall everything just stopping for a fallen wrestler.](http://25.media.tumblr.com/134a5f44151fc33abcd2e4604baf140d/tumblr_mjj52kkHAw1qzx70zo1_500.png)
