    I don't know how many wrestling fans are on this board but we lost a great one today.

    I knew something was up last night but this.......very unfortunate.

    and I thought Losing Eddie was Hard.....

    The WWE lost it's last Truely Great Wrestler it's going to take a Raid of Ring of Honor to make up for it.

    Homicide or poisoning.

    Nobody is really sure. The Police in atlanta being CSI freaks or something are ruling it a Double homicide suicide but I'm pretty sure that isn't the case. There are some reports going around that the family was very sick Saturday.

    Well it is said that they are no longer looking outside of the house for evidence of their death, as the weapons of death have been found inside.

    How was he a decent guy if they have reason to suspect he killed his family and commited suicide? If that's the case then something was horribly wrong with him.

    Sounds like he killed them and then himself.

    All we knew at the time was that Benoit and his family were dead. The whole news about a double murder/suicide only sufaced a few hours ago. In other words, we don't truely know if he killed himself and his family or not yet.

    If you ask me, I'd prefer waiting until they are done investigating and they have all the dots connected. I've heard way too many "theories" about what happened as it is.

    This caught me completely off-guard yesterday, somebody linked me to the WWE homepage and I honestly thought (or was hoping) it was a work.

    From what I've heard, it could've been a Carbon Monoxide leak that caused this, I really can't imagine foul play on Benoit's part here. After all, he pulled out of the recent PPV Vengeance (he was replaced by Jonny Nitro) so he could go home to take care of his wife and son. There were reports of them spitting up blood...

    I'm glad the whole "Vince is dead" angle was dropped though, some surprising classiness from Mr.McMahon being shown there.

    One of the greats.

    I had the honor of seeing him and Kurt Angle TEAR THE HOUSE DOWN at the 2003 Royal Rumble.

    Yeah, great guy. Killed his wife & kid. Assuming it was the roids, that's really no excuse, now is it? I've taken plenty of chemicals in my life and have absolutely zero regrets. The worst I've ever done to another person under the influence is hit on some chick, or maybe verbally lashed into someone when I was drunk.

    Who knows. Maybe he realized his profession is one gigantic, staged charade.

    Grah, I know what you mean, I finished reading about how his wife was asphyxiated etc.

    I don't really know what to think now.
