Chris Benoit and his family was found dead in their home today. Im still shocked

He was one of my favorite wrestlers and one of the best technical wrestlers that are still around. It hasnt hit me yet, but when Eddie Guerrero died, i was bawling like a baby all night.

Tonights RAW will be be a tribute to him.

Do you frequently cry when complete strangers die? :confused:

How old are you anyway?

:Q

I don't watch wrestling anymore, but I remember back when I did, it was pretty upsetting when Owen Hart died. Especially how he died.

Errr, from Wikipedia
On June 25, 2007 Benoit and his family were found dead in their home in Atlanta. It was first reported to fans of the WWE via WWE Mobile. No exact details are known about this death at this time. This is a storyline.

If that's true, that is pretty damn sick.

Dude...while I'm not a huge WWE fan I know I'd probably shed a tear if one of my childhood heroes passed on...and I'm 26. Sound like YOU'RE the one in need of a little growing up...

No way is this a storyline...they currently are all big on the "McMahon is dead" story...there's no way they would throw this in there right now...it would completley steal the McMahon storyline's thunder.

Speaking of THAT storyline...I wonder what happens to it??? Does Vince not make an appearance to pay tribute to one of the best wrestlers ever? I'd be pretty surprised if he didn't show up...sure...it would ruin their current storyline but some things take precedent.

Disgusting if thats the case. I don't expect much morality from Vince McMahon and the pro wrestling world in general but this really is off the charts especially since a big part of their audience are kids.

i agree if it is a storyline i will stop watching.

big way to know for sure is tonight show. Does Mcmohon come out and ruin the angle? or stay hidden.

i really really hope its storyline. he was one of my favorite wrestlers.

Why do I need to grow up? I'm not the one worshiping a bunch of steroid heads who do fake wrestling. God, how anyone can watch that sh!t is beyond me.

If the story is true, $50 says he killed his family and then off'd himself. :p

You need to grow up because in a time of tragedy you choose to belittle a COMPLETE stranger...who gives a damn about your feelings about wrestling...the OP seemed to like it a lot and has taken Benoit's death hard...

No wonder you have Lifer status...posting complete rubbish sure adds up quick yeah?

I think it's fake. They said that he called in sick and that his entire family was spitting up blood. What kind of person wouldn't go to the hospital or call 911? No, it's a fake story.
