A hypothetical Benoit question...

[NeanderCarl]

Let's just get all hypothetical for a second, and ask a "What if...?" question...

What if, by some miracle, Benoit is proven innocent? What if this whole situation really is a triple homicide?

How would you feel? How would WWE react?

Everybody has been so quick to condemn and distance themselves. WWE have removed all mention of Benoit. McMahon called him a "monster". I've seen posters calling him a "piece of shit".

So what if it transpires down the line that he didn't do it?

Why do you think I've kept my mouth shut on this topic?

Then he won't be a piece of shit. Pretty simple.

Surely not that simple. I'd like to know what peoples' emotions would be. How guilty would people feel?

And how do people think WWE would deal with it?

WWE is distancing themselves because steroids are/will be involved in some way or form.

Honestly, after reading this latest update about him taking another insurance policy without Nancy in it. I'm started to wonder about this whole thing. I do think he killed himself, but i wonder if she had anything to do with the childs death maybe? The theory i had is that she found out about the insurance policy. Benoit maybe wanted a divorce. She snapped and killed the kid when he left. He came back and found the child dead and snapped and killed her and then killed himself.

Ofcourse the whole thing about her being dead longer negates that but i still wonder.

Benoit was my favorite wrestler of all time. For a while I only watched wrestling for him and if i watched a ppv, it was only for the Benoit match. I just dont wanna believe that Benoit is a monster. I truely believe theres something that isnt being said about this whole thing. It feels like a big part of this story is still missing.

I think WWE's in the wrong for disappearing him already.

I will always think that Benoit is a dick. No longer a murderous dick, just a wife abusing dick. Either way, there's a spot in Hell for him.

While I enjoyed him as a wrestler, my opinions on him as a person will likely change only in the least meaningful sense.

There was a spot in hell for him after he left the 4 Horsemen.

Yeah, in Midcard Hell...

I've always thought that these stupid police were not doing something right, because they were WAY too quick.

I'm thinking this way: Press and police are trying their hardest to character assasinate the business anyway they can, and this is a HUGE card they are playing, and the WWE is falling for the peer pressure AGAIN. People are putting their two cents in (meaning all these wrestlers) to get some free publicity and to not be painted as "defending a murder", and we're at the mercy of what people tell us about this case (look at the shit I got for opening my mouth saying a different opinion from the majority for a while).

I don't think these police WANT to investigate further, and I don't think most of the press gives a shit anymore. Damn shame, too.

I don't think the police have an agenda. But a wrestler doing something stupid and violent s about as baffling as a couple of black guys dying in an inner city shootout. I think it's lazy, but not directed. There is no intent to slander, or to sway. But you've got some roided up guy who beat people up for a living in a fake sport. A lazy cop would find "case closed" an easy route.
