  1. This went up two days before the brain analysis results came out. And is still up. Nice timing.

    Seems to have gone now.
    It was a compilation of brutal chair-shots. WWE are disregarding the evidence of Benoit's brain-damage completely.
  2. I suppose it's possible, but unlikely, that Benoit found his wife and child dead on Sunday morning before killing himself. But if that was the case, he would have alerted authorities first to clear HIMSELF before committing suicide later.Seems obvious to me that the man is guilty.

  3. If this has been posted, I apologise.13589245.jpg

    WSB-TV Channel 2 has obtained a photograph of a a smiling Chris Benoit at his doctor's office Friday afternoon just hours before he went home and killed his wife and son and then committed suicide.The picture was snapped by a wrestling fan at Dr. Phil Astin's office in Carrollton.Federal drug agents and sheriff's officials raided that office Wednesday night in search of records and other items in a warrant.The fan who took the picture described Benoit as soft-spoken and "nice." He signed an autograph for the woman.Agent Chuvalo Truesdell, a spokesman for the Drug Enforcement Administration in Atlanta, said Thursday that the raid at Astin's office in Carrollton began Wednesday night and concluded early Thursday morning.Truesdell said a search warrant obtained by the Fayette County Sheriff's Department in connection with the Benoit investigation was executed there.He said records and other items were being sought, but he said he could not immediately be more specific. Truesdell also was unable to say what was seized. No arrests were made.Benoit had been under the care of Astin, a longtime friend, for treatment of low testosterone levels. Astin said yesterday the condition likely originated from previous steroid use.Astin prescribed testosterone for Benoit in the past but would not say what, if any, medications he prescribed when Benoit visited his office on Friday.Over the weekend, Benoit killed his wife and son and then killed himself at their home in Fayetteville.Anabolic steroids were found in Benoit's home, leading officials to wonder whether the drugs played a role in the slayings. Some experts believe steroids cause paranoia, depression and violent outbursts known as "roid rage."

  4. Benoit's icy-cold character and "boring" personality and interviews have ensured that no-one outside the wrestling business ever really "knew" him, or even had any idea of what he was like outside of the ring. Even in the Hard Knocks DVD, Benoit gives away very little about his personal life and feelings. The man was very private.It is for this reason that I wonder if the man was ever mentally sound. Sure, he was very smart business-wise, but I got the impression from the Raw Is Benoit show that most of the boys never really "knew" him either. Triple H's story about Benoit bullying some young guy for 'disrespecting' Shawn Michaels was very telling of this new side we see to Benoit after his death.I will always remember Chris Benoit's matches fondly. How could you not? But I'll never be able to enjoy one ever again. The mention of Chris Benoit's name will never again bring a smile to my face. And many other fans feel the same. The thought of a once-heralded and celebrated hero falling so far from grace is sickening enough. But the full details having emerged about this man has made me lose all respect I had for him, and all grief over his death.

  5. In quiet reflection, I put on the Chris Benoit DVD 'Hard Knocks' last night and found myself in tears watching my hero, knowing I'd never see him wrestle again.This morning, I'm ashamed of myself for doing so.R.I.P Nancy. R.I.P Daniel.
