k thx

If there's one thing that's apparent, it's that we have no idea about the facts here. Benoit may have had a legitimate reason he was keeping quiet, they may have been for Daniel or Nancy or they could be a falsified reason to get a legitimate perscription.

While you're right about the media overplaying the steroids angle, I don't thiink you can say any one of the possible factors (steroids, concussions, drink/drug abuse, history of domestic violence etc) is any more likely to be the cause than any of the others.

Really though...That's a little too Coincidental Who else not connected with the WWE in Stamford would've known that? Its the same guy that knows Chavo is a rapist apparently. Seriously, its like 130,000 people in Stamford. This asshole probably just added the Nancy is dead part to be an asshole and ended up being right. It looks as though that IP address took out the reference of Chavo being a rapist... http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...oldid=140442953 Addedin Nancy dying http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=...oldid=138444926 Took out Chavo being a rapist. Although they also posted an entry about people wanting to fuck Kiebler, and replaced a word with the word piss, so who knows? Maybe a shared IP for their cyber cafe or something as the entries were very spaced out.

Poor choice of band to name. Silly wrestlers.

thanks for posting the best post in this whole thing. I think as we become more removed from the sudden nature of this incident more people will come to realize that while YES, what he did we cannot forgive, it's highly doubtful that it was the same man we grew up with on our televisions, posters and minds. The thing is, though, he was. Maybe the guy changed from when he was in Japan or ECW, but this is the same guy we were watching a week ago against Burke, not knowing he was capable of this.

Just an assumption, but I doubt many would attend the funeral. Perhaps Chavo, Dean and a few others. I'd add Ron Simmons to that list. If only, to say his catchphrase and cash another check If only they'd have interviewed him for the tribute show.

I know what you're saying, but laying bibles beside the family members you just killed does kind of suggest that religion was involved on some level, if only that he thought there was a heaven he could send them to.

Regardless of whether he was clean or not, by the time the toxicology results are back it will have gone from assumption to perceived fact that he was on them.

Unless I missed it, we don't know what position he was in, or the size of the bed.

Also, I agree. No way of knowing if it was a crossface. Nothing to suggest it was anything other than a choke, and sounds extremely sensationalist to suggest it was a crossface. Wasn't the initial suggestion smothered with a bag.

Humming his theme tune...

Wait, what? Briscoes?

Oh, Shannon.

By the same token, though, Punk seems like the sort of person who'd want to wrestle just to be able to do something. Same with someone like Chavo and others close to Benoit.

To be fair, all that happened after he had been wrestling for years and made it to the top of his profession.

Because a psychotic break doesn't really apply in a case like this. He was on the road already and gearing up for a PPV where he'd be leading the ECW brand. He'd have to pre-meditate something like this to know that he was going to skip the show(s), go back home, kill the wife and then kill the son the next day. If his wife called him home like he told the WWE, they could have gotten into a fight and he killed her in the heat of the arguement, and then kill his son and himself. I can't find any records of house shows 21 or 22/6, so it's likely he returned home after the ECW tapings. He then phoned in saying he wouldn't be able to return to the road. He was scheduled to main event the 23/6 house show, which he didn't show up to. Maybe he had already killed Nancy at this point, maybe he was planning it for later, we may never know. But it looks like he didn't get a plot while on the road, then asked to leave to be able to kill her.

Yeah. If we are going with the notion of Heaven & Hell, the substance abuser and the murderer aren't going to the good one. Which raises the question: Is it better to sin at the beginning of your life, seek forgiveness, and die, OR lead a fairly good life, commit a horrible act and die? I'll grant it, Eddie never killed anyone, but I'm just asking a general question. Well, if we're going into Catholicism, which I assume Eddie was, then you can repent your sins and get into heaven. From a moral point of view, neither is ideal but it's probably better to learn and mend your ways. It depends on the scale of the misdemeanor though, of course.

Yeah. If we are going with the notion of Heaven & Hell, the substance abuser and the murderer aren't going to the good one.

I thought he went home, and then called to say he couldn't make the PPV due to a family emergency. Also, reports say that he killed his wife Saturday night and his son Sunday morning while he was still in bed.

So ECW's faces are CM Punk, Tommy Dreamer, Balls, Nunzio? Maybe Miz? I'm guessing they'll turn Cor Von or draft someone over.

Oh, Shannon.

A week with Chavo's retirement angle. The WWE wont use this as an angle.

The first thing I thought of when I heard what Benoit had done was roid rage. I'm guessing the media may go with this angle as well. This ties up with the theory that life as a wrestler lead to his downfall.

Just found out. That's some fucked up shit.
