But man, imagine if they had found out midway through the broadcast. Watching some old Benoit match and next thing you know it just cuts to Vince giving the speech he wound up giving the next night.
Think that's actually what happened. Around the same time leaks and rumors about Benoit being the murderer is when the tribute show itself also quickly shifts in tone than what aired earlier.

Been speculated for a long time, Regal and others knew backstage something sinister happened instead which is why his tribute speech had a different tone.
