Regardless of how you feel about the disgusting nature of the Benoit family tragedy, it's damn immature to let that affect your respect for the man professionally. I could list many reasons why Chris Benoit deserves to go in the Hall of Fame, and there is only one reason why people think he should not. That reason is a personal one, and should not have any bearing on the man's profession.
Will he go in? Hell no. The WWE pulled their tribute to the man, and have taken down anything that associates themselves with him. Personally, that disgusts me. What Benoit did may not have been right, but that doesn't change the fact that for 20 years Chris Benoit was one of the best in the business.
I will probably get a lot of neg rep for this, but I will never stop admiring Chris Benoit professionally. Personally? I never admired him for this. The man partook in an affair with a married woman, something I could never do myself. Chris Benoit never had my respect for his private dealings, but that is not why I watched his art religiously for so many years. I will never stop loving Chris Benoit the wrestler.
