DOUBLE MURDER-SUICIDE
It has been ruled that the deaths of Chris Benoit, his wife Nancy and their son Daniel earlier today were the result of a double murder-suicide from within the home. WWE.com will have more as soon as it becomes available.
And this is a result of what REALLY took place...
Just as The WWE is currently doing a "story line" on Mr. McMahon's "character" death for the shows.
If you all saw the 3 hour special on Raw that was suppose to be the further investigation of Vince's death. Ended up being a tribute to Chris Benoit and his family. Being aired live with no fans in the arena and Vince (himself) in the middle the ring.
I really doubt that Chris Benoit, his wife Nancy or even his son would do a double murder-suicide to the others then himself/herself. Most definitely with Chris Benoit and his love for the sport of wrestling to compete in front of all the WWE fans worldwide. All while getting a good size paycheck to support himself and his family.

I love Benoit and have such respect for him. It was a pleasure watching his wife when she was in wrestling as well. Its really a shame that his son was only seven. You never know they could have been having marital problems. I think the police might make some kind of official statement tomorrow.

Yeah I'm expecting the wrestlers will perform on the behalf of Chris Benoit on ECW tomorrow and on Friday Night SmackDown!, just like they did when Eddie Guerrero past away 2 years ago.

Considering the circumstances they might just show Benoit matches and the wrestlers, etc. testimonials for the rest of the week. I don't know how they could possible work in conditions such as these.

More information from wwe.com...
Chris Benoit, family found dead...
STAMFORD, Conn., June 25, 2007 – World Wrestling Entertainment was informed today by authorities in Fayette County, Ga., that WWE Superstar Chris Benoit, his wife, Nancy, and his son were found dead in their home. Authorities are investigating, but no other details are available at this time.
Instead of its announced programming for Monday on USA Network, WWE aired a three-hour tribute to Chris Benoit.
Chris was beloved among his fellow Superstars, and was a favorite among WWE fans for his unbelievable athleticism and wrestling ability. He always took great pride in his performance, and always showed respect for the business he loved, for his peers and towards his fans. This is a terrible tragedy and an unbearable loss.
WWE extends its sincere condolences and prayers to the Benoit family and loved ones in this time of tragedy.

More information from wwe.com...
WWE.com has learned that according to the Fayette County, Ga. Sheriff's Office, the deaths of Chris Benoit, his wife Nancy and their son Daniel Monday were the result of a double murder-suicide from within the home.
According to lead investigator Lt. Tommy Pope, of the Fayette County Sheriff’s Department, in Fayetteville, Ga., the deaths of WWE Superstar Chris Benoit, wife Nancy and son Daniel were the result of a double murder-suicide, WWE.com has learned.
Benoit failed to appear both at Saturday’s live event in Beaumont, Tx., and WWE’s Vengeance: Night of Champions in Houston Sunday night, after informing WWE of a family emergency. Several curious text messages sent by Benoit early Sunday morning prompted concerned friends to alert Richard Hering, VP of Government Relations for WWE, Inc. Hering, in turn, spoke with Fayette County sheriffs Monday, and requested that they respond to the Benoit residence to check on him and his family.
Authorities representing the Sheriff’s Department initially had a difficult time entering Benoit’s new Fayetteville home Monday afternoon, which had been guarded by two large German Shepherds roaming freely around the property. Once authorities entered the residence, they quickly located the bodies of Benoit, Nancy and Daniel. WWE was notified of the discovery at approximately 4 p.m.
At 10 p.m. Monday night, Lt. Pope held a press conference in conjunction with Scott Ballard, the district attorney for Fayette County. The press conference officially ruled authorities’ findings as a double murder-suicide from within the home.
WAGA, a FOX-owned and operated television station in Atlanta, reported that investigators believe Benoit killed his wife and 7-year-old son over the weekend, then himself on Monday.
The three bodies have been received by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation’s crime lab, in Decatur, Ga., where autopsies will be performed Tuesday morning. Toxicology reports will not become available for at least two weeks.
WWE.com has further information relating to both the investigation and the cause of death, but the Fayette County Sheriff’s Department has requested that WWE.com not release any additional details at this time.

Double Murder Suicide? Now that's a BS.  How can a loving husband, and dedicated wrestler can even think of committing suicide, let alone murder his wife & his 7 year old son? I believe that they were murdered, poisoned however or murdered. Think about it...Chris has generated few enemies back then & most likly whoever hated Benoit must've killed him even without an actuall bullet in the head, but rather drink poisoning. Double Murder Suicide. Blah. |

You never know. I don't want to believe that Benoit would do something like this.. But what else could have happened? I could never see him doing it either.. He got repeated text messages from his family.. I guess a family emergency.. Who knows why he did it.. Maybe he didn't do it? I don't know.. It's all confusing. I was a big fan of him and it's very upsetting to fathom a tragedy like this

I agree with ya there Robert. Who would do such a thing to a man?
*sighs* Goes to show how unfortunate person can go through, and
Chris was in his prime now...just can't believe he's gone too.
Last night as I watched RAW, I saw both Chris & Eddie standing together
as the Champs...it just breaks my very core...now both of them are gone...I
can never understand this at all...never.
