Downhome

Here is the TMZ report:

A Bible placed at the side of each of the victims... EDIT: And Nancy was tied up, bound.

Thanks, I'll check it out just to see what people are saying.

CNN is talking about fans going to the net and forums to vent about all of this, the Vince storyline, a list of all of the wrestlers who have died, and other stuff like that.

In case you can't get to a TV, you can watch the 3PM press conference here: http://media.myfoxatlanta.com/live/index.html

By saying that, I don't mean I'm going to start discrediting his work. No, his great matches will always be great matches. What changes is how you view those matches from this day forward. I don't see how anyone could ever watch a Benoit match again and not see a man who killed his wife, Woman no less, and child. I'll still watch his matches, enjoy them, but I'll just have all of this baggage while I view them now.

If that TMZ report is totally true, well, let's just say that Chris Benoit was a "special" sort of monster. It's one thing to kill someone in a fit of rage, when emotion overcomes rational thought. It's still a sick thing to allow it to come to that, but it's at least understandable in a way, at least compared to what Benoit is being accused of. No, if it's true that he killed his wife, allowed time to then past after he had time to gather himself and sort his emotions out, and then after actually thinking about it he went ahead and killed his very own child, yeah...that's something on a totally different level than many of the killers we so frequently hear about. Then to take it to yet another level, he actually remained in the house with his dead family, only to kill himself hours later. I hate it, but if such as that is true, my respect and admiration of any sort for Chris Benoit died right with him.

MSNBC says that initial autopsy reports are due in less than an hour, and the press conference is still on the way.

Dave Scherer has implied on the board that what TMZ just reported is pretty much what he was talking about.

Dave Scherer just posted the following on the PWI board:

It looks like WWE.com is moving on as well. Benoit is still the main story, about the case, but over on the right all of the tributes are gone and have been replaced with things about Cena, divas, and stuff like that.

I still can't get over how it felt as last night went on. As RAW started, I was in the "crushed" mode, just shocked over hearing that Benoit, Woman, and their child was dead. Then as RAW went on, I watched it as I checked for updates online, and that feeling totally changed right as I was watching his tribute. Just really, really weird. MSNBC said that there will be a press conference later today, but didn't mention a specific time.

I have an assload of tapes, matches on my PC, and his DVD. I'm not going to even think about unloading any of it, but I'll never be able to watch a Benoit match again in the same way.

I'd say it's just that WWE doesn't want to be seen as profiting from him at all right now. He's still mentioned on the site, still in title histories, etc... So basically you think in a few months.........he'll be added back to everything. I didn't really say that. It more than likely depends on what the final facts of the case are. I could see them keeping mentions of him in the title histories and the such, but not mentioning him in DVD listings.

From WO:

I've always assumed that they would never reveal it to be anyone, and instead it would just be Vince having faked it himself.

From PWInsider:

Is it actually confirmed that she called Benoit, or is it just confirmed that that's what Benoit told people?

From the WO update, this makes me really worried:
