    My only other problem with it, aside from the title, is that it won't be an autobiography.

    What did you expect? :laugh:
    They should publish his diary.Dear Eddie, Nancy just won't shut up about me cutting down on the crippling road life of a wrestler. We'll show her, won't we Eddie.

    I just bought the tabloid GLOBE in which there is an exclusive interview with Tom Billington, one half of the British Bulldogs.Title of the article "I Tried To Save Chris Benoit" August 6th issueBritish Bulldog Tom warned young wrestler, steroids were making him a deadly monster. Story is on pages 10 and 11 and well worth a read Chris who killed his wife and child before committing suicide, would be alive today - and so would his family - if he'd listened to the warnings of his ring hero and mentor. A wheel-chair bound Billington blames 'roid rage for the tragic deaths and reveals he tried to save Benoit by counseling him to curb his massive drug use. The autopsy of Benoit showed that he filled his body with a laundry list of drugs. Instead of controlling his drug use, he overdid the steroids and it ended in tragedy. Belington said, the majority of wrestlers all shared more or less the same lifestyle. We were living life in the fast lane. Bellington said, "I feel no sympathy for him. We all knew the dangers. Benoit should have known his limits. We've all been through it, but we didn't take it out on our loved ones. His poor wife and child didn't deserve to die because Benoit screwed his life up. "I'm glad he's dead." Pictures in article include, Billington sitting in his wheelchair, The Bulldogs, Chris in ring, Nancy and Daniel and the funeral services for Nancy and Daniel with photo of Nancy's Mom, Dad and sister.

    JR should've spoken at the funeral.Spoiler due to poor taste.

    *JR sees open coffins* "GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY! LOOK AT THE CARNAGE! NANCY HAS BEEN BROKEN IN HALF! DANIEL HAS BEEN WHIPPED LIKE A GOVERNMENT MULE! THE BENOIT FAMILY HAVE BEEN TAKEN TO THE WOODSHED!"

    Konnan never even mentioned the WWE i dont think he just said 'the industry'

    It's true though. I really can't see how a lot of wrestlers with the bumps and the amounts of dates they do, can keep going. I know people are boycotting the WWE which is absolutely understandable, but this seems something that's really corrupt throughout the entire business, be it TNA, ROH etc... Whether a load of people stop watching Pro Wrestling full-stop. It still won't help the problems that are constantly occurring and need to be addressed (because they're still going to attract kids, families and people who aren't sat at their PC for a long time). Basically, Pro Wrestling needs some form of governing body, that's not overruled by any type of promoter, who clearly is looking out for the well-being of his company and not his staff.TNA etc.. can probably just carry on as they are, with steroid use rampant, as they're under the radar (the only company your average Joe are going to know is the WWE). So, let's say the WWE up the Wellness program, focus on issues such as getting an okay from your GP to take a fucking ton of drugs. They're still going to be faced with a roster of people under pressure to perform at an acceptable level (when they're injured or not properly healed for example) and to "look good" (like when Vince took a dig at Orton after his shoulder injury on LIVE FUCKING TELEVISION for looking skinny, or something, imagine what is said behind the curtain). What are they going to do? Fire a LOT of people or re-examine the dates they have to work and allow people to heal properly?It's just really sad that unless the next wrestler death (give it a few weeks/months) involves said individual going nuts and killing kids, his demise dead in a hotel room will probably not get much press as it's not sensationalistic, probably a little mention, but then everything just carries on as normal. Soon wrestlers will have a life expectancy of around fifty years.

    i was a big fan of benoit and although i can say what he did was right i still have no problem sitting down and watching one of his great matches.

    I really hope you've missed the 't' off 'can't' and you're not condoning his 'Toothless Agression'.

    My only part of this whole sorry mess was Vince McMahon, during an interview on some media outlet, saying 'the jobs of the WWE superstars are to put smiles on people faces'.Yep, the whole Vince death angle with a ten-bell salute was a hoot, let's not forget the miscarriage, necrophillia, rape, cancer, funeral storylines to name just a few.My face nearly cracked from smiling so much during those angles.
