Yeah, out of everyone in the lockerroom, he's gotta be the guy who's taking it the hardest.

Ironic that tonight was supposed to be a three hour McMahon-centered episode.

Well, it's three hours to pay tribute to one of the greatest technical grapplers in the business. Ever.



(geez, that irrational part of me just wants Eddie and Benoit to walk out tonight and go... "WE LIED!!!")

Right now, saying something like "RIP" or "my condolences" is like confirming that they're all gone.

I'm in total shock and denial. I'm not even letting my mind think about it.

What I don't get is there was a a family emergency before he even went home. So something bad happened before he got there and the fact that they all wound up dead just makes no sense. The only thing I can figure is if they were murdered the killers were harrassing his family and when he got home they killed him and his family.

Simply can't take in this news, just off to bed and saw this, now have to stay up to see what is said on Raw.

I haven't seen any timeframes involved as most sites are crashing (inc WWE.com), but if this happened yesterday - is it another case of the 'show must go on' BS? People were saying how poor it was, maybe a coincedence, I dunno. Pretty unforgivable if it was.

RIP Chris, you were a true Champion in every sense of the word.

Goodbye, old pal...he was another superstar who was way way way too young to die (40). Well, he will be happy to see his best friend Eddie Guerrero up there in Heaven. Not to mention, a lot of us are still getting over Sensational Sherri’s sudden passing. I don’t mean to be stupid, but maybe Vince should be taking this as a lesson, that death isn’t something you can put into the script of your life and fake it when it really happens, like a wrestling storyline. This just further goes to prove that we must live every day to the fullest, for we never know when it will be our turn to return to the ground, and life is way too short to be running around scared of dying. We might as well make good use of the time we get with friends and family in our earthly lives, because some of these people we will surely not see for quite some time after our/their passing.

Dunno if what you said is true or not, Sickboy, but I do hope it is also. It’s pretty fucking pathetic to use wrestling as a veiled way of toying with people’s emotions.

And Benoit's page was most recently edited on Wikipedia as such:
On June 25, 2007, WWE.com reported that Benoit and his family were found dead in their Atlanta home and that police were investigating the situation.

Now, I’m no writer or anything for WWE, but if, if, they are using this as a way of continuing the McMahon death angle as though the WWE has a hidden serial killer, it would be pretty damn disgusting.

I hope so too.

I checked the atlanta journal constitution site. http://www.ajc.com/
You would think they would have something up about it. nothing is reported there yet.

God, I hope they don't think it's a work and start booing.

I hope this is a work, I really do, but it just doesn't make sense for it to be. He had no connection to Vince McMahon in storyline terms, so this being a serial killer angle doesn't make too much sense. Plus they've taken down all the Mr. McMahon stuff.

I hope this isn't how karma works. Mr. McMahon may have been an ass for playing with death, but Benoit doesn't deserve to be taken to prove a point. Nor does his family. R.I.P. Chris, Nancy and Daniel.

I also get bad feelings about this. Three people don't just die, especially after a family emergeancy. I don't want to speculate, but I think we have all considered two of the possible scenarios. Let's hope it isn't so. Fuck, let's just hope this is all a work.

There is still a small part of me that believes this is all a work and is tied to the McMahon/Death angle and that they are just covering this up really, really well. I mean, there's no secrets in wrestling anymore right? Maybe McMahon has figured out some ways to shock people again and get them watching...I wouldn't put it past him! The man is a genius.

I really think there's a chance we will all be laughing at this thread later....well, not all of us will be laughing. I think many people will be disgusted.

Anyway, my point here is we shouldn't assume things just yet.

I checked the Atlanta news stations websites and nothing was mentioned and I'm sure they would've picked up on a story involving a whole fucking family being found dead by now.

I hope no one is seriously using Wikipedia as a reputable source, and that those things are just being posted as speculation.

Although fuck... I'm sure everyone's with me that this being an angle, no matter how sick, twisted, perverted, and horrible, would still be better than the real thing.



We're getting the same reactions as when Eddie died, btw. Same ones.

This is pretty hard to believe. I remember when Eddie died pretty much every section of WWE's homepage had videos, pictures, news, interviews, etc about him. They only have a short story and a section for pictures for Benoit. They still have a WWE mobile link up which you think they would replace pretty quickly.

Could be that I'm just trying to find excuses to believe this isn't real at this point but does seem a bit odd. Hope this is part of the storyline.

I don't want to believe this. I have the same feeling I did with Eddie. I don't want to believe it, and I just don't know what to say.

Regardless of what has happened, I'd just like to thank Chris Benoit for the many wonderful memories that he provided me as a wrestling fan.

I do not know Chris Benoit in real life, but I DO know (to a certain extent) Chris Benoit THE WRESTLER a.k.a. The Rabid Wolverine.

I remembered that first night when Benoit lead the Radicalz and shit kicked DX. I remember that night where Chris Benoit became World heavyweight Champion for the 1st time, only to celebrate with Eddie Guerrero afterwards. I remember Chris Benoit for his 5 star classic matches with Dean Malenko, Triple H, Chris Jericho, Kurt Angle, Eddie Guerrero, and many many more.

I do not "know" Steve Williams. I do not "know" Michael Hickenbottom, or Paul Levesque. Simiarly, I do not "know" Chris Benoit outside the WWE.

Based on his tremendous wrestling career however, I want to thank Chris Benoit for the many wonderful memories that he provided me.

God Bless.

Sincerely,

Kapil.

Guys, I realize I am a jobber in this place....

But please...just remember that Zeeboe a.k.a. Val Venis was the one who first predicted that it was a work.

Infact, I am starting to believe more and more that this is all staged.

You'll all be laughing at yourselves later for this and for many years to come...mark my words...hell, I already am laughing at some of you.

As for you who are sickened by McMahon...I bet you'll still watch his product and really hate his guts....which is what he wants.

McMahon has figured out once again how to shock people...I wish I were related to him...I'd be so rich....

Holy fucking shit. I hope it's an angle. I hope Benoit blew up the limo.

It's a bit suspicious that he happened to have to leave Texas and then was found dead.

If this is true this really is very sad and I have to say Rest in Peace to one of the greatest.

This is like Eddie all over again, figuring it's an angle.

When I read it on the front page I went right to PWInsider to check it. Oh Lord this is bad.

Guys... it's only been an hour since this news broke. Even the internet has its limit on speed of report.

I've check the sites too, and we'll see what's going on.


Although, yeah, I'm holding onto a shread of hope that this is all a work. Still a shread...

Yeah, it took a couple hours for Eddie news to pop up, as Sascha and I were discussing just now.

It's just...Fuck this is bad timing.

Benoit had been scheduled to appear on a WWE house show on Saturday. Sources tell us Benoit called to first say he would be taking a later flight, and then to say he would not be attending the house show due to a family illness. According to one source, Benoit said both his wife and son were throwing up blood and he needed to stay to take care of them.
