I don't even know what to think. Benoit was one of my all time favorites, and really one of the only reasons I've even been remotely interested in wrestling at all these last couple years. As a performer he will always be one of the absolute best at professional wrestling, bar none.
Who knows how or why any of this happened. Part of me knows the evidence is saying he's a murderer, part of me is holding onto the belief that there will be another scenario found and his name will be cleared. I've been reading some of the posts and I agree with a lot of what's been said, and some people have just made assholes of themselves. But all I can say is if Chris Benoit did kill his wife and son, he was a piece of shit, plain and simple. You can find a way to condone killing someone if it was in the heat of the moment and the killer is sorry, but to kill a child? And moreover to kill your own child? That's just fuckin twisted and evil. I don't want this to sound like I'm jumping to conclusions, because I sincerely, sincerely hope Benoit did not do this. I want to remember him as a great performer and speak positively of his wrestling ability. And right now all of this is just theory and speculation anyway. Either way, Benoit was a great wrestler and no matter what happened he will always be one of the best in his profession.
My prayers go out to his family and friends and to Nancy's family and friends. This is truly a sad day for pro wrestling and for pro wrestling fans.
