This is bad, may he and his family R.I.P.
 
Well I'm shocked at this. Benoit was one of my favorite wrestlers and he always performed above all others in the ring. He missed Vengeance last night due to personal reasons as well, so idk. This can be some shit like Vince being "dead", but if not this really sucks. If this is true, may he R.I.P. He will truly be missed
 
oh man. the rabid wolverine. rip. hopefully there wasn't any foul play. but an entire family dead? something's definitely up.

i dont think its fake, its his WHOLE family...WWE even said they are going to forget the Vince thing and tribute RAW to Chris.
 
When I first saw this I thought go damn the WWE is starting to look like a mourge.

This really sucks because he was my favorite wrestler

R.I.P
 
That whole Vince death thing has royally fucked me off with the whole thing, it must be the worst storyline I can remember in wrestling for a long time, and I have been flicking it on for many a year now.

There sounds like something is up with the whole Benoit situation, for his whole family to be dead is just too strange. He really was one of the best wrestlers I have seen and could actually wrestle unlike a lot of the huge guys they put on nowadays.

RIP Chris Benoit.
 
This is sad, I though he was the most decorated wrestler... Apparently, there was a citation on Wikipedia confirming this.
 
Man, I remember back when me and my brother used to love wrestling we would always make fun of this dude. Probably because I was like 8 or something then and could not understand why his last name would be pronounced the way it is and thus called him "buh-noyt". But yeah this is a pretty sad story, RIP Chris Benoit.

Well I didn't say it was fake, just that it may be a possibility but yeah the whole family is just too much so just nevermind that. Something is definitely up though, as it was his whole family AND he missed the PPV last night. R.I.P. to him again and to his family and I hope that this gets solved
 
This is very saddening indeed. I had always used to watch WWF/WWE back in the day, but I quit watching it when some of the more entertaining superstars like the Rock moved on from wrestling. I still know what goes on though, cause a friend of mine still is an avid WWE viewer.

But I've seen Chris Benoit perform many a time when I was into wrestling. He was always a very good technical wrestler, and played decent and entertaining heel and face roles. His death is very sad, and what makes it worse is that not only him, but his entire family was found dead as well. I hope we can find out the reason behind his death soon, cause it hardly seems like it was by natural causes.

RIP Rabid Wolverine
 
wow that's terrible :[

I remember I used to watch WCW back in middle school and he was one of my favorite wrestlers. RIP Chris Benoit and his family
 
He was never one of my favorites back when I watched, but that doesn't really make it any less terrible ;/ The WWE is worse for not having him and man it sucks when this sort of shit happens.


I really hope the cops sort that shit out assuming that it is the foul play it appears to be.
 
For years now I've seriously considered going to a training school in the south and actually being a professional wrestler. But all of these recent deaths of active and recently-retired wrestlers and valets have got me extremely worried. Of course seeing how his entire family was involved in this, I don't think this was work-related like all of the other heart attacks and cocaine overdoses you hear about every other day it seems. But it's still depressing and scary to read about.
 
him and his whole family

holy shit what happened =(

for one that does still watch wrestling occasionally, that is a a real slap in the face.

RIP chris, you made all of canada proud.
 
What. The. Fuck. This is really disturbing.

I really don't know what else to say. It seems like the mortality rate of these poor guys (Eddie, Guerrero, Owen Hart) is terrible compared to normal people.

EDIT: Forgot about Eddie.
