Do you think Benoit should be inducted in the hall of fame.
Being now everyone knows what happened and vinceeven stated there will be no more mention of Chris Benoit, do you think he will get inducted into the wrestling hall of fame. Remember the key word is wrestling. I feel he should still be inducted because its all about his wrestling career not his personal life and how it ended. He was one of the best wrestlers and i know everyone pulled for him at wrestlemania 20.

Nope. I don't think he will. If he hadn't had killed his family as well, maybe then. But this man is a murderer. Well, was.

If Pete Rose can't get into the baseball hall of fame for making a little extra money, Benoit shouldn't get into a wrestling hall of fame either.

its unfortunate cause he was deffinatly a top canidate for the hall of fame. I figure if they do induct him then Nancys family will probably sue or something. I guess we will find out closer to Mania.

SHOULD he be inducted on wrestling alone? Yes. But he won't be because WWE won't want to have the sigma of having to advertise a murderer on their programming.
Even if he did, there would be a giant hippophant in the room (and not just Monty Brown) and it would be unsettling. |

He's not getting inducted. The WWE Hall of Fame is based on who WWE (and more specifically Vince) likes and wants to see in his Hall of Fame. I mean randy Savage hasn't gotten in because of some personal issues between himself and McMahon...you think Vince will let a murderer in.

Why would they let someone who killed 2 people into the Hall of Fame? Who the hell wants to remember a killer? People get banned from sports for much much less, this dude KILLED 2 people. He woulda been kicked out of the WWE if he did not kill himself.

Not before Owen Hart. A man's man with all the talent in the world.
But personally, he wont. Who is going to want to now induct him without feeling odd? |

These days, a player can get banned from sports for beating his wife, a shot at both Ty Cobb and Steve Austin.
Wrestling attracts some pretty scummy people. Including rapists, sociopaths, and abusive folks. Not to mention filthy drug addicts. They'd be kicked out of sports, too. EDDIE DOESNT DESERVE TEH HALL UV FAIM BAH GAWD! |

Yes, in five years, but not as one of the main people. Not as a major draw to the hall of fame. He did a lot for the wrestling industry. We don't know why he did what he did, but for his wrestling alone he should go in there.

Whether he is inducted or not, people WILL remember his great in ring excellence and they WILL remember his last actions in life.

Fuck yes he should. Chris Benoit is one of the best wrestlers to have ever lived. He has found success all over the world, he climbed to the top of World Wrestling Entertainment, and provided the last truly great WrestleMania moment (at least in my opinion), when he and Eddie Guerrero were celebrating in the ring together.
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. |

After watching the opening of ECW tonight, I highly doubt he'll ever be put into the Hall of Fame.

Austin's beaten wives before and he's in the hall of fame. Not that that's on the same level as murdering your wife and son, but it's still something to think about.
It's a tough call, because based on wrestling alone, yes. I can't say yes or no. |

On one hand: He's one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. He gave nothing but 100%, and did nothing but give to us fans. He was a leader in the locker room and seemed like he made sure the younger undeserving guys were deserving. On the other hand: He murdered his wife and son. You kind of don't want to give a guy who does that any respect. I'm on the fence, and wouldn't care either way. |

On my side of the screen this is the USA. You have the right to say what you want, even if other people don't like it. The downside is other people have every right to say what they want about you and your views.
Now I see eye to eye with you. Benoit has busted his ass off for 20 years making other people a lot of money, pouring out his heart and soul, the blood, sweat, and tears, all in the name of putting on a show. What happened sucks, It fucking sucks, it hurts, and my heart goes out to Chris's other children, and his family. So get ready for some backlash. Get ready to have other people say your wrong and then make false claims about your mother's sexual life and the kool-aid man. It's their right to do so, but as KK said, fuck them. |

Chris Benoit should be in the WWE Hall of Fame. Not only was Chris Benoit one of the best wrestlers that ever lived, he also was good for the buisness as a whole. He spent his time in the buisness making others look good and upholding the tradition, artistry, and sport that is professional wrestling. The man put on more great matches then anyone not named Ric Flair, Triple H, or Shawn Michaels. Chris Benoit's in ring abilities are indisputable. The fact that the wrestling business is better for his contributions are indisputable. The fact that he is a hall of famer is indisputable.
The WWE Hall of Fame is not a Hall of Fame for good people, it isn't a hall of fame for the virtious, pure, and saintly. Chris Benoit's actions in the final 72 hours of his life are absolutly dispicable, and justafibly unforgivable for most. Murder is never justified especially to a 7 year old boy, but no matter how horrible his actions are it doesn't erase his contributions it merely taints them. Based on his career Chris Benoit should be in the Hall of Fame. But the WWE won't induct him, because it'd be a PR nightmare. |
