Chris Benoit found dead

According to wwe.com, Chris Benoit and his family were found dead today at their home.

I'm really sitting here in complete shock.

I just heard about this recently. I am in utter shock. My only reaction was, "What...?" And to learn his family was also found dead... Horrible. Wrestling lost another diamond.

This is why Vince's angle was such a horrible idea. I guess this is learning their lesson the hard way, at least maybe they learned something from these horrible circumstances.

Yea... it's all over the news now. Rumour has it it was a gas leak. Damn....his son was only 7! No more rabid Wolverine. Benoit was one of my faves too!

I heard they made Raw a tribute to Chris Benoit (it was originally gonna be a Vince tribute) and Vince even appeared. It's not on for a couple hours here yet.

His wife was a WCW/ECW wrestler.

She was a manager by the name of Woman. She managed Sandman, And Kevin Sullivan. She was actually married to Kevin Sullivan, untill a story was started where he stole Sullivan's wife. They ended up getting married.

Me and my older Brother are two of the largest Chris Benoit fans you'll ever meet. We've been following him since ECW.

Here's a little more information on the situation.

Strangely, this site uses different words like "homocide" and "slain" and also states that they were found at 2:30pm as opposed to 4pm.

In any event, my sincerest condolences to his two surviving children.

My brother is right with ya. RP'ed as him for years, too. Sadly, they were finally coming to our part of the country for the first time ever; bro had tickets to see him. It's in a week or something.

Very, very sad. What a shame. Though I'll be honest; as soon as my brother told me and I asked if it was violent and he said no?

First reaction: Carbon monoxide. Second reaction, some other gas leak. Shame, as that kinda could have been avoided.

But really, really sad. I liked him. My prayers and condolences to his family, friends and fans. It's a damn shame.

Im hoping that he wasn't slain cuz that would be too much...especially with a little boy involved.

However I was told this. "ALL deaths are initially treated as a homicide until cause of death is found, once they rule it as accidental or by natural causes, its done."

Yeah, I got to see him live on my birthday a few years ago. He teamed with Chris Jericho. It was a double geekgasm for me.
