Not only that but whilst there are comparitivley more deaths related to wrestling than the average, but theres an awful lot of people involved in wrestling these days. Everyone's going to die one day, me, you, everyone on this board, unfortunately punctuated by the recent untimely loss of Pepsiman (R.I.P).

If The Rock was found dead tomorrow, would that be classed as a wrestling related death? For many years he was the industry's top performer (or one of a few at the very top anyway).

You say that predicting deaths in wrestling isn't hard, can you point to one post here that predicted Benoit was even likely to be next?

Also its not like any of the deaths in wrestling have been limousine or bomb related (AFAIK). Its a storyline, please can the world learn how to seperate fiction from reality, death happens, its not nice, but it does.
Death should never be used. Whether Benoit happened or not, a death storyline is somwhat pushing it.
