Morbid Coincidence

Today is the eleventh anniversary of Owen Hart's tragic fall at the Over The Edge pay-per-view.

In the days following the death, World Wrestling Entertainment - then known as the World Wrestling Federation - decided to discontinue the event name as a mark of respect.

This year, WWE released a list of new pay-per-views titles and one of them was named 'Over The Limit'. I didn't think anything of it at first, but then I noticed the date that it was taking place.

It's a morbid coincidence that they should launch a similarly titled event on this date. I'm quite shocked that they hadn't noticed and changed it to another month.
