He has always been admired as one of the greatest workers in pro-wrestling. His best of 7 matches against Booker T during his WCW days raised the bar as far technique goes. He was one of those wrestlers who appealed to the purists and his career was a success wherever he went.
It is also reported that Chris Benoit missed the pay-per-view ‘Vengeance’show of the WWE last weekend. It is reported that he was supposed to win the ECW title. During the show it was reported that he couldn’t attend because of ‘Personal Reasons’. His reasons must have been pretty serious for him to have missed such an important event. The signs should have been clear then itself that something was wrong as Benoit would never have a missed a match unless the circumstances were dire.

Today another man who has been ‘presumed’ dead announced the death of Chris Benoit and his family. After cancelling Raw, Vince McMahon announced to the world the tragic news, bringing to an end the minority belief that he may be dead for real. So controversial was his death storyline that Vince had to categorically state that Benoit’s tragedy is “Real”. The irony is that this Raw show was billed to be McMahon’s memorial service. Wonder if he has ever heard the saying about tempting fate.
Even though we may hate McMahon’s tactics we feel that right now the more pressing matter is to remember the man who gave his whole life to wrestling and thereby tried to entertain us. Know as the crippler and the rabid wolverine he emerged from Stu Hart’s training as one of the most promising wrestlers ever and has lived up to that expectation ever since.
In his own words he has said earlier "Wrestling has consumed my life. Wrestling is my mistress. It's my passion. It defines who I am as a person." No other tribute could be greater to the man.

Why would you want to pay tribute to a man who just murdered his wife and child. Chris may have been one of the greatest wrestlers ever but the only twelve bell salute on ECW tommorow night should be for Nancy and Daniel. I had alot of respect for Chris until today. There is no excuse for doing that to innocent people especially his own son someone who relied on him for his survival.
ReplyDeleteso chris benooit had to attack and kill a defenceless 7 year old????if so he's had a few too many blows to the head!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteChris Benoit was a great wrestler but he shouldent hav killed his son i hope he diddnt and i hope they reveal later on in the investigation that he diddent.
ReplyDeletei dont tink chris benoit killed his wife nancy and his seven year old son daniel but if he did der must hav been sometin wrong wi him.....
ReplyDeletei think vince mc mahon might have killed benoit just like he killed owen hart
ReplyDeletewhy would chris kill when the wrestlers said that he was nice his kids were kind as well but to kill a little boy that was beneth him especially his son
ReplyDeleteClassic example of what WAY too much setroids and too knocks in the head will do to a person.
ReplyDeleteWOW:(
ReplyDeleteAccording to many different news sites and WWE.com, Benoit did in fact murder his wife and son Daniel. It was revealed that his wife Nancy was strangled with some kind of electrical cord and that her hands and feet were bound and she was wrapped in a towel. There was also some blood found near her body. Daniel was smothered and found face down in his bed. Bibles were left near each of the bodies. Chris's body was found in the basement training room. He had apparently hung himself by wrapping a cord around his neck that was attached to one of his weight lifting machines. There were anabolic steriods found in the home but I believe the report is that they were prescribed. However, one company, I don't recall the name, has issued a statement that they participated in the selling of such drugs based on the use of illegal prescriptions. Go to WWE.com for more information regarding the case and also CNN.com has a video taken in front of the Benoit home with more information as well.
ReplyDeletei think personaly that vince mcman had something to do with chris benoit his son daniel and his wife nancys death its kind of odd that vince fakes his death for a week and is missing then all of a sudden a tragedy happens to a great wrestlers family and the night vince qas supose to appear back on the set what more than a perfect way to announce this tragedy money talks O.J proved that
ReplyDeleteIt's ridiculous to believe that Vince McMahon had anything to do with the death of Chris Benoit.
ReplyDeleteYou got to be able to separate fact from fiction when it comes to wrestling.

I still do not belive Benoit is dead. I also can not really belive he killed his son and wife. If he did that then something was really wrong with him. If the text messages on wwe.com are correct that is also strange. Why would Vince kill Benoit? Benoit was supposed to become ECW champion that night! everything is strange! I just hope it is another gimmick or something but it was on CNN.com as well. Eddie died and now a good friend of his Benoit also dies and supposedly kills his family before killing himself. Strange. Is Mysterio next?
ReplyDeleteChris probably was a nice guy, good to everyone. But also "nice guys" have a dark side, and many murderer seemed to the outside other than they really are.
ReplyDeleteAfter all Chris is a criminal and we will never know what was really in his mind when he did that tragic things.
WWE should also think about their storylines, cuz death isn't somthing to joke with, even if many fans take it too serious.
Greetings from Virginia, USA. I got your comment on my blog! Thanks for checking it out! Have a great day!
ReplyDeletei love chris omg he is such a good wrestler n i just cant belive that he would do sumthin like that man rest in peace to him n his family anotha fallin wrestler
ReplyDeleteI honestly can't beleve that Benoit would do that to hes family. I think someone is behind this, i dont no who but no way i can see Benoit killing he's family. He still had a long life to live for, for god sake he had a chance at the ECW title. I will always remember Beniot as a great wrestler, not a murduror
ReplyDeleteI feel that no matter if chris did this or not......plain and simple...it is a tragedy.4years ago i had the pleasure of meeting Chris here in Syracuse at an event.3 human lives were taken.My thoughts and prayers goto the families of everone affected by this horriable tragedy.Chris was an amazing wrestler.As far as if Vince had anything to do with this...who knows.The 5 diffrent text messages he sent were obviously cries for help....its just a tragedy that so many people in the Wrestling business are Dying from drug use...or complications from it
ReplyDeletethats crazy how he did that its crazy how someone fakes death and someone really dies. why would benoit even really do that its stupid. benoit had a great life why would he do that especialy his son how can you stand there and smother your own flesh and blood. and you wife thats just cruel no body will ever know why he did it only he will up there in heaven he had much more life to live but he gave it all up i send my condolences to the benoit family .
ReplyDeletei cant believe he is no longer with us on this earth.i can't believe he killed his wife and his kid.what if he attempted to warn people that the where in danger
ReplyDeletebecause it is strange story this thats why i can't believe he killed them and hope it that he didn't do it
i cant believe he is no longer with us on this earth.i can't believe he killed his wife and his kid.what if he attempted to warn people that the where in danger
ReplyDeletebecause it is strange story this thats why i can't believe he killed them and hope it that he didn't do it and truth comes out soon i will miss him
Hello To everyone From WA State.
ReplyDeleteMy personal comments on this whole deal, Is that I cannot hate Chris Benoit at all. I will always be a fan of his. I also think that them steroid companies should not even be legal to sell the drugs that can cause the possibilities like with what happened with Benoit. I do think benoit is wrong for what he did But I also think if the steroids would not have been involved then none of that would have happened. I will always remember Benoit as the careing, But get down and serious in the ring guy. He seemed so cheerfull and full of life. Theyre had been times when it look'ed like he did not want to be in the ring. But I personally think in every job carrer singing or acting carrers there are days when no one wants to be there. I am terribaly dissapointed in what happened. It is a true loss A good man That we all knew of as Chris Benoit. Includeing his Wife And son are passed. Every one Just look into your hearts. He was wrong Every one knows he was in the wrong. When you really think about it. There are alot of cases like this or simular to this. I've yet to see one Involving Steroids, I just think he might not have even knew what he was doing. Those steroids can cause black outs and anger bursts. And when some one blacks out They have no clue what theyre doing. I think for those of us who loved Benoit and His family need to take a stand against the steroid company to which steroids he was takeing.. I believe it is a good idea maybe they will stop selling products like that to ANYONE. I guess What I am trying to say is that the steroids played a big part in Benoits behavior.
I am sure Vince Mccmahn Had absolutely nothing to do with this. Every one needs to remember It is a wreastling show WWE World Wreastling Entertainment. Everything Vince Or anyone does is all an act Comes From A SCRIPT. You all have lovely lives. I just had to get this out and in the open.
I think Benoit had alot to deal with and just snapped. Owen Hart, Eddie Guerrero, and Stu Hart, close friends to Benoit, are all dead. A few weeks ago, two of Benoit's friends who weren't wrestlers were killed in a car accident, or so I heard. Throw in a difficult lifestyle with 300+ days a year on the road, a disabled son, steroids, and marital problems, and the whole situation becomes easier to comprehend. I think he got in an argument with his wife and she said something to set him off. Then after realizing what he'd done, killed his son because he didn't want him to grow up experiencing all this. Then killed himself.
ReplyDeletehave you stop to wonder that his close friends who have died might be the cause of his own death such as the late Eddie Guerrero etc...
ReplyDeleteonce you start losing loved ones close to you. you start to doubt whats the point of living. if this was a murder or suicide we do not know for now. i hope Chris Benoit may rest in peace regardless what happened.
I can't imagine Chris Benoit doing that to his family in fact I'm hoping that he did not do it.I also had the privilege of meeting Chris Benoit last year here in Grand Rapids and he seemed liked a down to earth type of person in fact he was one of the most respected people in the wrestling business and I am hoping and praying that when the toxicology reports come back that it will let everyone know the truth.I will miss Chris Benoit and I wish he was still around.
ReplyDeleteim sorry but if my boyfriend murded me i would not want tribute to be paid
ReplyDeleteif my boyfriend murdered me i would not want tribute to be paid, no matter what the circumstances
ReplyDeleteOMG!!!!
ReplyDeletei only found out last night what happened ima fan of wwe and i cant get over what has happened!!!
i want 2 no why he done it??
I can,t believe benoit is gone!! there are to many death,s in wrestling!!And as a wrestling fan it sucks!! I am still a benoit fan to the bone, and hope that the truth comes out very soon. I want to wish all the best for benoit family and friends and my sincere condolences! Michael from Holland
ReplyDeleteNobody really knows what went on and I personally don't think Benoit did it intentionally if he even did it at all. If he did do it I think he was outta it at the time and when he came down he realized what happened then killed himself. In the research I was doing it stated that the steroids that was found at his house has been known to bring a paranoia and agrassive behavoir
ReplyDeleteI heard the news from a friend of mine.I was very shocked.In my country (The Netherlands),wwe wrestling is not so populair.But to be honoust I think that what is going on lately in wwe wrestling is more important than a Paris Hilton getting out of prison.Everyday I see that woman on Dutch television.UNBELIEVABLE!!!!I know wwe wrestling from the beginning (wwf) then it was very boring if you compare it with now.But there is a limit,wwe wrestlers aren't machines they are human beings just like you and me.Stop the use of anabolic steroids in wwe wrestling.Too many wrestlers died too early and now innocent people are getting involved.So Mr.McMahon stop thinking about the fucking money and stop the use of anabolic steroids.If you don't then you have blood on your hands!!!It is not sure that Chris Benoit killed his wife and son.But if it is so does he become a member of the wwe hall of fame?For me he is a hero,he deserves a place in the hall of fame.

im a wwe doctor and this coment is after and madical exam
WWE doctor my foot if you are a wwe dr then you just broke dr patient confidentiality and should be sued and removed from work. I dont think Benoit did it I think Vince had something to do with it, he is all about money money and more money. So what if Benoit had marriage problems everyone has them once in a while and if the text messages are true he knew something was up and was crying for help.
ReplyDeletealright evreybody out thare listen up roid rage or braindamege did not kill chris bentio and his family you want to know what killed them the same thing that killed eddie owen bam bam stu hart jyd and mr perfect and that my good pepole is simply vince machman
ReplyDeletethe smartest thing dr phil ever said. 'what happened to common sense in America? lol are you kidding me? put yourself in his shoes. Hi. im chris benoit and im rich, living my dream, and i have family i love. oh wait! roid rage! better kill my family then myself! and while im in this spur of the moment rage lemme bound up my wife and leave a bible next to her and my sons body to make sure they get to heaven safely! GET FUCKIN REAL PEOPLE! and to the police of fayetville i ask of you. GET OFF YOUR ASS AND GO TO WORK FOR THIS FAMILY. You guys should be ashamed of yourselves. DOUBLE MURDER SUICIDE? lol thats hollywood fiction movies. I rest MY CASE! Not theres.
ReplyDeleteDont believe what you hear and see on TV. Benoit can never kill any one. Chris Jericho said, if I am going away for work and if I had the option, I would leave my kids and family with Chris Benoit.... see, thats how much his friends trusted him... CHRIS BENOIT had the reputation to be kind and gentle after work. He loved his family to bits. Rest is Peace Chris. You changed the wrestling image....
ReplyDeletehe was a good man...
