Its been reported tonight that WWE wrestler Chris Benoit and his family have been found dead in their home. Not much has been said at this point, but honestly i'm speechless... http://www.wwe.com/inside/news/benoitdead
Yeah, I saw this. My brother got a phone call from his best friend, who in turn told me. And to think he was my favorite wrestler (after the Undertaker). I'll definately be keeping an eye on this.
Same here, character-wise he might not always have been the biggest WWE star; but in terms of pure technical ability he was always one of my favorites. This is just so sad... its even worse that his entire family were found dead in their home; authorities aren't saying much about whats happened; whether it was murder or something else
oh man. not good. another tragic loss for WWE fans & families. i guess it's a "hit" of some sort, or a m*rder-s*icide, maybe. unreal.
I don't know. Nobody knows. It could be a freak accident (like carbon monoxide poisoning) or it could be foul play. At this point in time all we can do is let the police do their jobs, and remember him for what he did both on-and-off the screen/ring.
there's a tribute on right now in canada. (normally would be MONDAY NIGHT RAW) on one of the sports channels. just started. going to be 3 hours long. very unfortunate events.
Yeah, it's on USA here. More information can be found here (Atlanta Journal-Constitution newspaper): http://www.ajc.com/news/content/metro/fayette/stories/2007/06/25/0625benoit.html
Wow, this one's for real. Other news sources are also saying this, so it can't be just another hoax. This is really sad. Have they found any clues as to how they died?
I cannot beleive what I'm hearing. I'm absolutely shocked and really sad at what has happened. Benoit has been a great wrestler, a wonderful sportsperson and a phenomenal person. Let's pray for the soul of his and his family's to rest in peace.
A buddy of mine sent me this news in a text message. OMG! I can't believe it. First Eddie and now Chris? Are all of the "4 horsemen" leaving us now?
Been reported in the Toronto Star (mainstream press) so guess it's reliable: http://www.thestar.com/Sports/article/229302
I can't believe that this has happened.This is a damn shame and a total tragedy. I am speechless, there is nothing more to say about this.Chris was the greatest technical wrestler. R.I.P. Chris Benoit
i thought this is an another WWE joke. this is such a horrible news. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,286673,00.html
take a look. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,286673,00.html Detective Bo Turner told television station WAGA that the case was being investigated as a murder-suicide, but said that could not be confirmed until the evidence was examined by a crime lab.
I guess since many other agencies are confirming this fact, its not just another hoax from the WWE stable. Sad thing. Benoit was perhaps superior than any other wrestler as far as technical ability is concerned. RIP Chris Benoit.
