AceSkinsFan Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I'll admit that I don't want to believe that Benoit did this. I've been a big Benoit fan for a long time and I just don't want to believe he's responsible. I do think we need to let the investigation run it's course and at least wait for the autopsy results before pointing any fingers here. It wouldn't be the first time an initial report was wrong, whether it's one implicating Benoit or not. So for right now, I think it's best to wait for the official word. Aside from that, this is still a tragedy for the still living members of the Benoit family. My thoughts and prayers go out to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAFGA Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 TMZ is scaringly accurate for a gossip website. They've been wall-to-wall Paris Hilton lately, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartacus87 Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Yeah, it was quite odd. Should be interesting to see what tomorrows news brings. That sounds pretty interesting. Almost as if he was saying that despite what truth may eventually come out, we should remember and respect the work he was capable of in the ring to entertain us. I sure hope Benoit wasn't a murderer in all this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonOfWashington Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I can't believe Benoit would be driven to do this. I'll be interested to see the autopsies. Such a dark day for World Wrestling Entertainment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinsfan1992 Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I work at a radio station in Norfolk Va andwe run the John and Jeff show out of Califorinia and they just reorted that Chris Benoit text messaged William Regal on Sunday Morning which Regal was prmpted to instruct an unknown WWE agent and that the WWE agent notified the sherif dept on Sunday afternoon and that th Sherrifs office did not investigate due to the fact that there were 2 German shepard roaming free in the yard and that a neighboor on Monday morning came home from vacation and that they thought it odd that Chris Benoits dogs were roaming free then called the police and that when they found the bodies I would be interesting to see what those Text messages were about because I agree William Regal looked sick to his stomach during the show and what was the sheriff told they need ed to investigate must not have been much if they decided that the dogs were goin to stop an investigation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACW Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 This whole thing keeps getting weirder and weirder. And as for Regal, maybe he was just in shock?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tastes Like Chicken Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Here's a link to video w/ local news report, interview with police and a neighbor.

ChampSkinsFanatic Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 R.I.P. Chris Benoit, I was just playing WWF No Mercy on my computer the other day, I was wondering how my nephews knew who he was because they pronounced it right. I thought he stopped wrestling a long time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lombardi's_kid_brother Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I watched Raw last night for the first time in about four years as I have not really been into wrestling in that long. I'd forgotten what an amazing worker he was. Still, if the reports coming out of Atlanta are anywhere close to the truth, I don't know if I could ever enjoy one of his matches again. It would be like watching old OJ Simpson highlights or something. I don't think I could ever fully separate the act from the man. Also, I have a feeling the WWE is about to get hit with an s-storm of negative press like they have not had since the steroid trials. Part of me thinks the domestic wrestling business is on the verge of a historic change because of this. I have no idea what that change is, but this just feels significant.

Gary Clark Fan Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 We shall see but prepare yourself, Benoit did this. Thank you detective.......Since you know for a fact it was Benoit (eventhough NO ONE has officially said it was) why don't you fill us all in on the rest of the evidence and crime scene.

praise_gibbs Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 If the reports are saying that its not a gun they what happend? The bodies all being in different locations is weird. One report said something about the wife being killed by the cord of an alarm clock... basically strangled. And the boy was smoothered with a garbage bag.

They are saying he hung himself over the balcony. I couldn't believe my eyes when I turned on RAW last night. Vince has started a lot of bad karma with his fake death.

Years of concussions can also do it. Considering one of his main spots in every match was an unprotected flying headbutt...yea...could be an issue.

Considering the press ex-NFL players have gotten recently in regards to dementia from concussions this is also a reasonable theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
