I'm on the fence, but after seeing how they handled the Owen Hart situation you knew they wouldn't.

Another thing is that they couldn't even if they wanted to. It's not their decision.

From a show perspective it wouldn't have hurt that much. They replayed the entire ME segment during Smackdown, so they could have just done it on the show. They could have re-booked Miz/Sin Cara to set up the Fatal 4-Way, ADR/Tyson and Otunga/Sheamus could have been scrapped.

It's hard to speculate on what the right decision would've been. I believe they kept the show rolling when Owen had his accident, but they regret it because he passed. I think if Jerry had passed that night they would've felt the same way.

On the flip side that last segment was pretty damn good. I couldn't get into it as much because of the whole incident with Jerry, but it was an awesome segment.

They also had the option of transferring that part to be recorded on Smackdown and cut one of the 5 or 6 raw rebounds they always have. It's tough to call, but I'm glad they didn't cut it and they show carried on very professionally.
