Telling us what to think (Benoit)?

Maybe it's just because I was/am still (Despite the f'd up end.) a complete Benoit mark but....

Do you think its right for WWE to chage history and erase Benoit completely?
I dont agree with it, and here is why.
Double murder suicide aside, Benoit was one of the best in ring performers ever, not just in WWE, but in all of pro wrestling.
Now WWE wont acknowledge he ever even existed (Minus his place in the title history.)
This brings me to my point. Do you think its right for WWE to tell us what to think, or remember?
A few years from now there will be wrestling fans, and new wrestlers, that never knew who Benoit was. Yeah what he did was wrong, and hes a bit of a black eye. But that don't give WWE the right to tell us what we can and cant remember, by erasing Benoit from history.
I take it as offensive that WWE thinks it's fans are stupid and wont notice him being erased.
I understand why they are doing it, but I think it would be just as ease for them to not talk about what happened to him in the end, and leave his history be.

What do you think? Discuss.
