    I haven't followed wrestling since the NWO years, but I remember Benoit. That's crazy news that his whole family was found dead. Any clue if it was an accident (carbon monoxide leak, fire) or foul play?

    i wouldn't put it passed Vince staging another "death" but there's a line even he wouldn't cross, right?

    I was going to say good timing cause today is Monday but I didn't know what they were going to show tonight.

    WWE has no morals and lives for these tragedies to milk it for all it's worth.

    RIP

    terrible news, RIP. Quite a bad time for the WWE though especially with the Vince death that was staged.

    They say things come in 3's right?

    "McMahon" :rolleyes:
    "Sensational" Sherri Martel
    Chris Benoit

    Part of me hopes this is a stunt. That they're going to have some "serial killer" killing off WWE personalities or something.

    This is shocking news. He was a great wrestler and still at the top of his game. It seems there have been lots of deaths in the WWE lately. First Eddie Guerrero, Sensational Sherri, Vince McMahon-allegedly, and now Benoit.

    i'm guessing foul play

    news reports say that he was supposed to be at a PPV Event on Saturday but left for "personal reasons"

    I'm in complete shock, not only at the loss of a true legend of the industry in Chris but also to see his family members dead as well. I just don't know what to say

    Agreed. It's not just Benoit, it's the Benoit FAMILY.

    It sucks that I'm skeptical. But truly tragic if true.
