Here's the report from Studio B with Shepherd Smith: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MW2uhCmOn4s He mentions how Benoit idolized Dynamite Kid, it seems like one of the better-researched American news pieces I've seen on the case so far...

Here's the FoxNews clip with Meltzer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MU26TRmqZBw

Nothing new really on the FoxNews piece.

D.A. Ballard and Dave Meltzer are on FoxNews right now. I'm putting this on Youtube later for those who miss it...

They're talking about this on CNN Headline News right now. Scott Ballard the D.A. on the case said Daniel had needle marks and they believe he had been on growth hormones for some time. The first text message sent said Nancy and Daniel were sick, and the last text message Chris sent said someone needs to check on his dogs.

Although I'm not sure anyone wants to watch him at this point, here's a couple of Benoit clips also featuring Woman (his wife Nancy)... Chris Benoit and Arn Anderson cut promos on Kevin Sullivan, with Nancy standing by (From Clash of the Champions 34, I think...): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21zET_xn8uo Chris Benoit vs. Kevin Sullivan (Falls Count Anywhere): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wztAYXGVmpc

I also loved her work as Sandman's valet in ECW, after she left he just wasn't the same to me. I also enjoyed her as Benoit's valet in WCW and the whole Benoit/Sullivan feud.

Chris Benoit wouldn't want you to do that. He took a lot of pride in his Facebook following. Funny...but seriously, a lot of people will change their tune quickly if Benoit did indeed have a hand in this. Then they're morons. I'm going to still love Benoit's wrestling and admire that aspect. He could kill a school worth of kids and I'll still like him as a wrestler. His personal life has nothing to do with him as a wrestler. Wrestling is full of scum bags. I couldn't feel more differently about it. Do you not feel any compassion or remorse for the woman and CHILD Benoit took the lives of? If Benoit did this, I think they should destroy all master copies of his in ring work, or at the very lease blur out his likeness and silence any mention of his name in all future releases with a match featuring the (most likely) murdering scumbag. Too stupid for words. Look, I just found out one of my favorite wrestlers of all-time is pretty much the prime suspect in the murder of his wife and child. I'm pissed, I'm angry, I'm depressed, I'm sad for his family. This is a very fucking hard thing to deal with, for all of us. I'm just not in denial like so many of you seem to be. It's almost laughable to try and imagine Nancy could've over-powered and murdered Chris without a gun or knife. Not jumping to conclusions does not mean people are in denial. It means they are grown ups capable of waiting until they have enough information to make an informed decision. I'm just going by what I've seen on all the news bits I've seen about the case so far, which all say Benoit did it.

I'm just not in denial like so many of you seem to be. It's almost laughable to try and imagine Nancy could've over-powered and murdered Chris without a gun or knife. Chris almost had to have been the culprit. But everything I've said was qualified by the word "if". So I haven't stated Chris definitely did it.

You are without a doubt a fucking moron. It's the very start of the investigation, no one knows who did what. ::shakes off annoying little flea:: *If* Benoit did this (and it's looking more and more like he did), then he's a piece of shit. Plain and simple. May he rot in the eternal flames of the hottest part of hell. People who don't want to believe it, are in denial at this point.

I think we should start a Nancy Memorial thread (if there isn't already one in General Wrestling) instead of Chris Benoit. I just ripped my Benoit poster off the wall.

I had last week's ECW on tape and I'm just now watching Chris's last match... this is so surreal. And tastelessly they played sad music and talked about Stephanie's emotional comments on her "dead father" right after Benoit's match was over... Of course WWE had no way of knowing what would happen less than a week later, but it's still morbid.

This is pure speculation, but maybe they were already dead at that point, and Chris was contemplating taking his own life?... God I have a sick feeling about this being murder-suicide.

I agree, and I hope it's not a murder-suicide...

This is really sad and depressing... I have a poster on my wall from Wrestlemania XX that has Eddie doing his Frog Splash and Benoit doing his diving headbutt. They were 2 of my favorites and now they're both gone... Sometimes I wish I wasn't a wrestling fan, this shit is too painful. And this is just speculation, but I hope it wasn't murder-suicide...

At one point around 1992, McDonald's sold catfish dinners in the Mississippi Gulf Coast area. I never had one but I think its kind of bizarre McDonalds served catfish. I remember Bill and Ted cereal very well, it was really good, kind of like Lucky Charms. I also used to like Pizza Hut flavored Doritos. I also used to love Potato Skins chips and Keebler Chachos. Actually, all the Keebler brand chips were pretty good.

Because as Meltzer said, CBS approached the WWE on casting a diva, which if this is the case exposes Survivor as a complete and total sham. Actually for the past 2 seasons, it's been pretty common knowledge that Survivor has went looking for cast members from various modelling agencies and the like. It's because they wanted to diversify the cast and not very many minorities sign up for the show on their own. Although I'm not sure how casting a white female "wrestler"/Playboy model counts as diversifying their cast...

My predictions... To Raw: Chris Benoit, Mark Henry, King Booker, Elijah Burke, William Regal, Mr. Kennedy, Michelle McCool, Kelly Kelly To ECW: Jamie Noble, Carlito, Kane, Paul London, MVP, Chavo Guerrero, Dave Taylor, Ashley Massaro, Candice Michelle To Smackdown: CM Punk, Khali, Matt Striker, Tommy Dreamer, Kevin Thorne, Torrie Wilson, Maria

I'm surprised they released Ariel but kept the worthless dancers from ECW, who I can't even bother to remember the name of, aside from Kelly Kelly.

But Russo's a "Christian" now so he's beyond such sinful things.

Who was the no good French Canadian he hated? I thought he was referring to Andre the Giant. I know Andre is French (not Canadian), but Sheik isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer.
