I really wouldn't mind seeing Chavo vs. MVP at the Smackdown tapings.
And then maybe Punk vs. Tommy Dreamer on ECW tonight. |

I'm gonna be completely honest, I'm definitely going to watch tonight but as a fan and a human being I know I'm gonna have a hard time enjoying wrestling or thinking about anything else pertaining to it while watching it for a long time, if not always... it's truly a much different situation than Eddie or Owen...

All Benoit merchandise has been removed from WWE.com. As his name in the WMXX match listing. Considering WWE 'has more information' but was asked not to release it by the police, seems to confirm Benoit is guilty.
Add to that Summerslam 2004. Also everything apart from the main story has now gone from the WWE homepage too. Last edited by CSL; 06-26-2007 at 11:30 AM. |

Wrestlers are fucked up, it hard life style, and I guess it doesn't attract savory characters like we want it too.

Someone on another site had a real classy picture of the old "Victim of the Crossface" shirt with an image of Nacy on the front.

Yeah but there feels like there's a huge blackhole that's been opened in ECW even tho Benoit was there for one show, he was going to be a huge part of it. |

I'm glad they're giving the crew a break from reworking the storylines. I don't know what the hell to think about this whole situation still. It looks more and more like he did it, I'll wait on final judgement until they release everything from their investigation. I hope, if he did it, it was a mental health issue and was not himself. I DON'T however, consider drug abuse (i.e. roids) to be a mental health issue that can redeem him. Drug abuse is SELF INFLICTED. It would have to be something he had no control over to substantiate anything.

some people are unreal. I'm happy to have the TPWW community for all of this. Most people dont understand or care on the level we do. Again, I stress that we didn't know the people involved or directly effected, but it hits closer to us than most.
Everyone here seems to be on the same page as me, and very respectful. You guys are legit great. |

During the interviews with Chavo and Dean last night, did any one get the feeling they knew more than they were letting on?

I don't know if this has been mentioned yet, but if steroids are involved, aside from the obvious destruction of his family, he has also dealt a swift blow to professional wrestling in general. In the US right now steroid investigations are running rampant through sports, and nobody has killed anybody because of it. NOW, you've got this kind of rogue-sport entertainment company that has no respect from the mass media anyway with a worker who snapped and killed his family under the influence of steriods. This could potentially destroy the WWE and professional wrestling altogether. At the very least it is going to have it severely punished and diminished, and set back a number of years.

CNN report was fucked up. The story seems to be picking up steam in terms of media attention...

I love Benoit, but i have no respect for him if he killed his wife and kid. But if he did it with the Crippler Crossface...i dunno. I'd have to think about it.

Chavo too, Chavo seemed that he knew what had happened, but was hoping beyond hope it wasn't true with how much he emphasized family, etc.

That and people weren't crying the way they did with Eddie and Owen. There everyone was openly weeping and couldn't keep things together. Here, they were visably shaken, and sadden...but it wasn't the same. |

Jeritron, you may be right about that. It might be good in a way to de-emphasize the roided workers.
Apparently Cena doesn't do steroids, so unfortunately he'd still be in the ME scene. Sorry, had to make a joke to lighten the mood a little. No disrespect intended. |

I haven’t seen the show yet, but I’m a bit confused about why they had CM Punk talk about him, but didn’t try to get some words from someone like Rey
No disrespect to Punk or anything, but they had only been on the same show for 2 weeks, Rey had known him for 15 years |

I totally didn't think about the possibility of murder-suicide until I heard Regal's speech. And I thought, "Jesus, I hope he didn't kill his family. He (regal) wouldn't even talk about his character."

This is bizzare that all of a sudden the guy i've rooted for, for years is not such a great guy after all. There has to be more to this story. There has to be something that the wrestlers were aware of that built to this moment. This didnt just happen. I truely doubt this was roid rage. Judging by some of the comments last night like Regals. It seems to me that maybe Benoit wasnt a good guy and everyone around him knew it but we didnt. Who knows. This is nuts. I've actually gotten over the initial shock of my favorite wrestler being dead and now i'm really curious what the fuck happend and what led to this.
