More News on Benoit Death


More info on the untimely death of Chris Benoit, his wife Nancy, and son, Daniel. Chris was a surprise "no show" at the Vengeance Pay Per View, due to having to leave for "personal reasons". On Monday he, his wife and son were found dead in their suburban Atlanta home.

From www.edmontonsun.com

"Benoit was supposed to appear at a wrestling show in Beaumont, TX, on Saturday, but didn’t appear, Meltzer said.

When he failed to appear at a pay-per-view event Sunday in Houston, Meltzer said, organizers covered by saying Benoit had to cancel because of “personal issues.”

Meanwhile, Metlzer said, WWE brass were frantically phoning Benoit at home to find out what was going on.

Finally, he said, they called the local police and asked them to check out his home."

Chris Benoit was one hell of a great wrestler. My thats and prayer go out to his family. No matter what the police find out. It's only going to be speculation because Chris is the only one who really knows what happened. It saddens me to have heard about this because Chris was a superstar everyone could look up to. Like I said no matter the out come we can't judge, only god can.
