I’m not going to lie about this.

He was never one of my overall favourite workers

However, he was without a shadow of a doubt one of the best pure wreslters they ever had, he just lacked the mic skills to take him to the next level. Regardless of the circumstances, he will be missed. You always knew when Benoit was going to have a match you were going to watch some quality wrestling.

Until I know more information about the circumstances of his death I’m reserving judgment, I can’t get my head around how anyone could kill their 7 year old Son, I just can’t.

When Eddie died there were reports within hours that he had taken a drug overdose, they were quashed, I hope/pray that Chris didn’t do what everyone is saying as it will tarnish the good name he could of left behind.

Whatever the reason/circumstances of the death(s) he was a great wrestler and will be missed. I even started using some of his techniques in my matches as I’ve started to do more submission work, past few matches I’ve even started doing his headbutt, doesn’t feel right using it anymore now….

RIP the Benoit family
