CTXRussomark Posted June 28, 2007 Posted June 28, 2007 Spicoli?He was in WCW at the time.It depends what list Vince is thinking of. Joey Marella died whilst working for him but he was neither a wrestler nor was his death wrestling related.
The Dart Posted June 28, 2007 Posted June 28, 2007 I was just reading that interview myself and was wondering who the 5th was. My guess would be he meant Russ Haas.
Moderators neil Posted June 28, 2007 Moderators Posted June 28, 2007 I wish we could have seen it. His final match went unrecorded. No spectators cheering him on, no flashbulbs, no theme music. Just his love to perform... wasted on two people who can't even tell us about how awesome it was.Stop being ControversiAlly.

remlap Posted June 28, 2007 Posted June 28, 2007 (edited) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYrAu0cYCYwVince on the Today show. He gets caught out and now admits steroids and other drugs may have played a role.Saw this on satellite earlier today, Pity Matt Lauer was out for this today, since Meredith Vieira is absolutely useless.

Rocco was 50.
Porn Baron Posted June 28, 2007 Posted June 28, 2007 and thats just the wwe guys below 50. think about the likes of anthony durante and booby duncan jr. who never made it to the wwe.
Hong Kong Dave Posted June 28, 2007 Posted June 28, 2007 It seems like we find out more and more about this with each passing day.....Should Chris's body be examined beyond establishing the cause of death & toxicology report? Certainly - examining his brain etc could give answers he himself didn't leave behindDid his son's condition play a part in their marital problems? I don't see how it couldn't haveCould the use / abuse of drugs and his continually punishing job have been a factor? TotallyI don't have a disabled child nor do I use / abuse drugs but my job keeps me away from home for a little over three full days a week and that alone is challenging for my marriage and my own physical and mental healthPlease don't take this as a plea for sympathy for Chris Benoit. I'm just trying to make some kind of sense out of what happened.

DJ Stevie C Posted June 28, 2007 Posted June 28, 2007 On the Today SHow clicp, when they show pictures of wrestlers who have died, they show a picture of Owen Hart, but the name Reads "Davey Boy Smith: The Brisith Bulldog" and cause of death reads "Heart Attack".It annoys me when news programs don't do their research, but it's a bit worse when they show one dead man and name him as another.Considering your sig... I found that comment hilarious :DSorry, no need to joke but I expect nothing less from the general press, trying to look like they know what they're on about when they really have no clue at all.

Paid Members Psygnosis Posted June 28, 2007 Paid Members Posted June 28, 2007 Breaking : Feds have raided the Chris Benoit's doctors office.
The Cum Doctor Posted June 28, 2007 Posted June 28, 2007 According to My Fox Atlanta (Fox 5 News) drug agents have raided the office of the personal physician of wrestler Chris Benoit. The office of Dr. Phil Astin was raided overnight with agents confiscating computers. Dr. Astin has told the Associated Press that he had prescribed testoserone for the wrestler in the past and had seen him on Friday, the day it is believed that Benoit killed his wife. Drug agents told FOX 5 News the investigation of Dr. Astin stems from prescription drugs found in the Benoit home after Benoit killed his wife, son and himself.I got that from 411.
