WWE Wrestler Chris Benoit, family found dead

Quote:
FAYETTEVILLE, Ga. (AP) -- WWE wrestler Chris Benoit, his wife, and son were found dead Monday and police said they were investigating the deaths as a murder-suicide.

Detective Bo Turner told television station WAGA that the case was being treated as a murder-suicide, but said that couldn't be confirmed until evidence was examined by a crime lab.

The station said that investigators believe the 40-year-old Benoit killed his wife, Nancy, and 7-year-old son, Daniel, over the weekend, then himself on Monday.

DAMN...

That's beyond words...We can only imagine what took place in Beniot's life for it to get to this point...If he did indeed do this though, I have no compassion for the unpleasantness of his afterlife...

I didn't know this was a big news. Never interested in this non-entertaining event, still, I remembered that guy's face. Unfortunately, this kind of things happen, regardless of the status of the person. And it doesn't require the person to have a crazy mind from birth. It all needs parental discord, and the wife trying to leave the husband with the child, while the husband is trying to prevent that. And, at the end, things can get out of control (with easier access to guns, the results becomes much more clear). I have seen that many times, that I don't find it strange at all, and I cannot blame anyone for that, just feeling sorry for both sides.

It doesnt really matter. Chris Benoit was a cool wrestler, he kicked ass for a guy that was such a small size and he really got mean wrestling moves. Too bad soon Kurt Angle stealed his moves, suddenly he was getting less famous and i think because hes Canadian, he cannot grew to the top and his lacking of size. It is a factor no doubt, we got propaganda in the WWE. We got this new iran guy, and i remembered how they harass the Canadians in putting fake actors to sing the Canadian national song, even after the protest of illegal immigrants, they put in latinos and mexicanas in there like as if they were bad guys. Too early to say that he killed his own family and then suicide.

Of course I saw him on WWE before... His famous moves are the Russian suplex and the Crossface...

What I meant was what on earth happened to him and his family?

And we will await further news...

ah i see, gomen, gomen...


back to the topic, i wonder why the investigation team didnt mention anything bout the murder weapon, is this some sort of 'hiding the truth' stuff? or just an investigation procedure?

We can't reports since I can't belive Beniot really did killed his wife and child, since he was a face in the WWE. Either way the WWE will be loosing one bigtime technical wrestlers of all time. Wonder if ever it's true Beniot did the killing and killed himself...what made him do that?

Who's gonna do the Tripple German Suplex? Diving Headbutt? Sharpshooter? Armlock and hold? And the Crippler Crossface?

May God Forgive Your Sins and May Your Soul Rest in Peac Chris Benoit...

Damn it...first Eddie and his shock-death, now Chris with his homicide-suicide...

I'm not sure what to make of this. It seems so unreal...

Few years ago, I would've laughed at the notion of Chris/Eddie being World Champs. Then when it came, I think I say for every fan out there WMXX was one of WM's greatest moments. Then, now reality is asking me to accept that the two friends and 2 of the greatest wrestlers alive not too long ago are dead?

Another great wrestler, gone.

Whenever I saw Eddie and Chris in the ring, it was like they were larger than life, ready to beat the crap out of their opponents.

Now they are gone.
It is a sad day in the wrestling world.
