If you care about wrestling (Chris Benoit dead)

The Rabid Wolverine, Chris Benoit and his family were all found dead today.

Don't bother pointing out this is the wrong forum- your mastery of the obvious is not necessary.

holy crap! that sucks!

looks like the timing of the "Mr. McMahon death" just keeps getting worse (Sherri Martel, now Benoit...)

markpregen · 06-25-2007, 07:35 PM

I hope BC can still perform tomorrow.. the wrestling fan that he is..

Exactly. Not so funny anymore.

Think he'll show tonight?

Steve Holt · 06-25-2007, 07:38 PM

I would hope so

MisterSquishyHalo · 06-25-2007, 07:41 PM

WTF Benoit is dead?!?! WTF

redhawk · 06-25-2007, 07:50 PM

That has to put an end to his stupid death trick. He has got to show tonight to show respect to the Benoit family.

no info has been released as far as i've read, but out of pure speculation there could be blood money involved, or a murder-suicide.

Corganist · 06-25-2007, 08:07 PM

Wow. That's terrible. Benoit was one of my faves.

But this is general chat board material, so I'm moving it there.

I don't get what people love about wrestling at all. It's pretty much the dumbest thing on television.

But yeah, of course that's sad.

Ah, the trash factor.
But all those rednecks in the audience and in front of their TVs - what the hell? They can't take something like this seriously, now can they?

wHATcOLOR · 06-25-2007, 08:26 PM

I hope it was. If it was some sort of foul play, then its a little disconcerting to think of exactly what might have went down. Getting shot isn't a great way to be killed, but it probably beats a lot of the longer/more brutal/more painful alternatives.

smurfing · 06-25-2007, 08:31 PM

i never liked him much, but this is horrible

noyen · 06-25-2007, 08:32 PM

i couldnt be happier that he is dead.

smashingjj · 06-25-2007, 08:35 PM

...and if i don't?

yo soy el mejor · 06-25-2007, 08:54 PM

JokeyLoki · 06-25-2007, 09:29 PM

This was posted on Fark, I couldn't find the link though (I saw it earlier, but that thread's just gotten too big to find it)

The news outlets are reporting that it's now a homicide investigation.

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.

so you must have meant murder/suicide by self-strangulation or something equally common and equally practical then
