WWE Superstar & family found dead
Chris Benoit & family found dead in their home.
I am truly shocked. He was my favorite wrestler. 
I truly hope this is not a pathetic ploy like the Vince McMahon storyline.

So far, yes.
I originally thought this was a prank as well when I first saw it on TMZ so I started looking at the WWE site for news as well as other groups. I'm still stunned.

Me too. I googled it to see if any other news outlet reported it and I saw it on the Atlanta news station as well as Access Hollywood. The last time I watched RAW was when Eddie Guerrero died.

Originally heard it was gunshot, maybe non-violent seems to be the consensus now. Crime certainly isn't prevalent in that area.

Well, from what the story I've heard so far is that he left home yesterday b/c of a family emergency but what that emergency was hasn't been released.
I'm watching the 3 hour tribute to him on RAW and damn. It's so sad. I cried when they did the tribute to Eddie Guerrero and I'm crying now. I grew up watching WWE and still remember the day he debuted with Eddie, Perry Saturn, and Dean Malenko.

Wow. It's so hard to believe this. Now we wait and see if she was the one who killed him or he killed her. And I'm still in shock over one of them harming their own child like this.

It's only getting worse now.
Investigators believe Benoit killed his wife and son over the weekend and then killed himself today.
I sincerely hope this is not true. God, I hope it's not true.

I don't follow wrestling, but after reading the news stories, this is very sad and shocking.

Since he didn't appear at Vengeance on Sunday night, I suspected it was something along these lines but I held out hope that it was a home invasion gone bad or carbon monoxide poisoning.
It's still all very tragic.

It was heartbreaking to watch "big strong guys" like CM Punk and Chavo break down into tears talking about him.
Even Vince was getting broken up.

I haven't watched wrestling in years, but Mr. PiPhi and I think it was 'roid rage that caused this.
