The Golfer Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I don't care if McMahon wants to act like he is dead that is fine to me. They killed Al Wilson before and it was no big deal. But the tribute shows were an absolute joke trying to copy the actual tribute show of the deaths of other wrestlers with interviews from wrestlers who were actling like Vince was dead with stories from his past, giving him a 10 bell ring which was the worst point of them all. Vince can kill himself all he wants too but don't do the same shows for real deaths as fake deaths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Red Rambler Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Police are investigating the deaths as a homicide: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19424899/ Raw is just tearing me up right now. I got to meet Chris Benoit at the Pillman Memorial Show in 1998 when he wrestled Jericho and was just all class. Edge talking about Benoit briging his son to a house show a week ago in Alabama and his 7 year old son going through his stretches with his Dad backstage. Just rips my heart out. Benoit will be terribly missed. My prayers are with his family tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonFire Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Chavo's tribute came the closest to getting me. Dean Malenko has lost two friends recently, but I think Chavo essentially has lost two brothers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATown Pride Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Very sad and my prayers go out to his family. He was was of the best I have ever seen. RIP Chris Benoit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gametime Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Man. Seeing Eddie and Benoit in the ring with the belts held high just a few short years ago says it all... :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKPat02 Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Police believe Benoit killed his wife and son and them himself... http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070626/ap_on_re_us/wrestler_dead Strange story, indeed. Prayers go out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-A-T-S Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I wonder how he actually killed them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hangman Posted June 26, 2007 Author Share Posted June 26, 2007 If this is the case, I don't have any respect for Benoit anymore... I hope that it's not true, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Red Rambler Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Me 2, I felt really bad for him, but now I do not know what to think of the situation... Same here. It just makes me sick. I would be willing to wager some sort of addiction was a culprit here and if that is the case the WWE has to put their foot down now. Their joke of a "Wellness Policy" cuts no mustard. How many more "tribute" shows do they have to do before they take a stand against their entertainers and drugs? Just a sad sad situation all around.

Freebird23 Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 RIP Crippler. It's so awful that so many wrestlers are dying so young. I agree with you UKMustangFan. That is the real tragedy. Athletes losing their lives at such a young age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
