Some wrestlers went right back at them for a minute before order was finally restored. Shawn McMahon was legitimately knocked down on the ramp.

But wait, there's more:
- According to a report by one source, last night's WrestleMania 24 "weigh-in" segment between Floyd Mayweather and The Big Show got out of hand towards the end when the Mayweather and WWE "posses" as they were called got into a brawl at ringside.
According to WWE sources, the segment did go as planned but several members of Mayweather's crew went into business for themselves to show how "tough" they were to some of the WWE wrestlers. One WWE wrestler commented that the segment was 10 seconds away from a legit beatdown taking place on live TV. Anyone who saw the segment caught Shane McMahon getting legitimately knocked down on the ramp. There was reportedly a lot of tension backstage between both sides after the segment concluded.
- To follow up on an earlier report regarding WWE promoting that Floyd Mayweather has suffered an elbow injury after last night's Raw in Milwaukee, The Wrestling Observer has confirmed this is a storyline for the feud heading into WrestleMania 24. WWE's website has a lot of coverage on Floyd's supposed injury and looks like they will push it going into WrestleMania.

the WWE guys would have whooped them....
Who were all the wrestlers involved?
Matt Striker,Big Daddy V,Carlito and just about every HEEL you can think of from Raw,Ecw,and Smackdown
Big Daddy V sitting on them would've ended the whole thing.
Big Daddy V could've picked up half of them and chunked them like rag dolls, just like Show.
And yes, I noticed Shane was legit knocked down.
