ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2007 They're showing this match? Well, at least it shows him putting over young talent (even though he actually won, but you know what I mean) It was Benoit's final televised match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Downhome 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2007 It really pisses me off - my nephew had tickets for this show, three hours away, and I decided not to go because it was so far...and it was just a SD/ECW taping. Now, I wish that I had went. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Conspiracy_Victim 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2007 Thank you, Benoit for inspiring and making wrestling seem real. Out of all the wrestling I've seen, he's probably the one that most made me wince in sympathetic pain and think "Damn, that had to hurt!" He made me suspend disbelief no matter how smarkish I've gotten. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can't believe I missed that. You look at Bam Bam doing a diving headbutt, then Benoit doing one. He was truly one of the greats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Conspiracy_Victim 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2007 I'm glad they're going back and showing him in the old ECW and WCW days. Shows what a great competitor and performer he was for such a long time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2007 Yeah, Punk brought me to tears. Just because he was showing more emotion than anyone else so far. Austin was stoic as usual but Cena was heartfelt as was JBL. It's not about showing emotion. Punk did get to me because I know how long he wanted to work Benoit and how much he looked up to him. As I am sure that alot of young talent in the back did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kizzo 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2007 Yeah, Punk brought me to tears. Just because he was showing more emotion than anyone else so far. I totally agree. He really pulled me in.. I'm not saying the other comments from others were not sincere or anything like that. But it was more effective! Also McMahon's comments were as well.. I thought he was going to break down.

UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2007 Despite McMahon appearing, the "Who Killed Vince?" storyline seems to be continuing, probably next week, but not as dominant until 2 weeks from now. That's the tone I got from Vince. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
