I don't know how many of you are wrestling fans, but I've been one most my life. I'm sitting here watching RAW tonight as they have a tribute to Chris Benoit & his family. Him & his family were found dead in their home. They don't have any details at this time. He truly was one of the greats.

My thoughts & prayers go out to the Benoit family!

____________________________________________________

Now that I know what happened, I take back all the nice things I ever thought about that guy. There is no excuse for that. Was it that she was going to leave him & If I can't have them nobody will? What in the hell is happening to this world we live in. This kind of junk is becoming far to common. The WWE should not do anymore tributes to that jerk!

He left instead of wrestling because his family was sick -- I think he found them dead and killed himself

It apparently happened this afternoon. This episode of RAW is hard to watch. He was obviously a great guy!

They aren't seeking out any suspects, as he's believed to have killed his wife and son, then killed himself.

I'm sure there are more, Was a fan way back when, and add Andre the Giant to that list.

If he did what CG said, and they prove that, then the memorial should be for the Benoit family not for Chris, great wrestler or not. If he indeed came home to find them dead and couldn't handle it...different story, but the whole thing sucks!

Looks like it's pretty much confirmed. Several news agencies have reported it, and the WWE is reporting it as well. I don't think they'd say one of their wrestlers was a murderer unless the evidence was there.

Yeah they say he killed his wife one day - then his son the next - and then hung himself in the weight room the day after that. Roids? Divorce? Who knows.....

I remember chris during his ecw days, I have been a big fan of him and now that he is dead im very sad. I just hope that chris didnt actually killed his family that doesnt sound like him, hopefully the truth will come out soon.

How well did you know him? His wife had filed for divorce and a restraining order not too long ago... and there's a history of several domestic abuse complaints.

He's a winner....kills his wife and kid, and then is too much of a coward to stay around for the consequences of his actions...

Arse? It was written on a site I was reading.

Citing the text messages that he sent they said it was likely he watched the PPV with his son.

Major Update

WikiNews[=http//en.wikinews.org/wiki/Death_of_Nancy_Benoit_rumour_posted_on_Wikipedia_hours_prior_to_body_being_found]WikiNews

[quote0ccf76da0c]Wikinews has learned through an investigation that anonymous edits on the Wikipedia article Chris Benoit were added about the death of his wife Nancy Benoit 14 hours before police entered the Benoit home to find the former professional World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) Canadian wrestler and his family dead.

An anonymous edit from IP address 69.120.111.23 using the Internet service provider Optimum Online was made at 0401 UTC on Chris Benoit's Wikipedia article. On a paragraph about an earlier fight "However, Chris Benoit was replaced ... due to personal issues,...", the anonymous editor added " stemming from the death of his wife Nancy." The edit was reversed just under one hour later with the comment "Need a reliable source. Saying that his wife died is a pretty big statement, you need to back it up with something."

Then just one hour later after the first edit reversion, another anonymous edit by 125.63.148.173 using unwiredAustralia.com.au, a wireless Internet service provider, was made adding about the aforementioned personal issues "which according to several pro wrestling websites is attributed to the passing of Benoit's wife, Nancy." That edit was reverted just under 20 minutes later, with the comment "Saying 'several pro wrestling websites' is still not reliable information."

Further investigation shows that the IP address used to make the first edit is located in Connecticut, but the IP address is not linked to any computers or servers used by the WWE, but according to Cary Bass, Volunteer Coordinator for the Wikimedia Foundation, the IP address matches a location in Stamford, Connecticut where the WWE headquarters is located.[/quote0ccf76da0c]
