WWE will no longer honor Chris Benoit and will continue to perform as they always do

see...now here is the question....ok you choose not to honor him...but how does anyone know what kind of stress he was undergoing from work that drove him to doing what he did?

Face it, this is a circus that travels all over the world and they perform everyday and have at least 2 big events MONTHLY and these guys are expected to perfrom these feats that defy human nature...sure most of this is 'fake' but it's not everyday a guy has to be able to lift someone 200+ pounds on a weekly basis for 52 weeks a year....so...ok maybe I am playing devil's advocate and yes what he did was wrong but come on....someone should at least try to find out what drove him to doing this.....hey...the WWE has not been known to foster healthy relationships:

Steve Austin was beating up on his wife Debra Marshall (who was also married to another wrestler Steve McMichael )

Rick Flair's 2nd wife left him because of steroid and alcohol abuse as well as physical abuse


Randy Savage was married to Miss Elizabeth who divorced him over abuse allegations (this is true folks) and wound up dating Lex Luger who ALSO physically abused her and she later died of an accidental O.D.


There are many more...so it will be interesting to find out what comes of this...if anything.

I remember all three of those instances and I am sure there are many more. I believe since Benoit's is so public with well documented information about his wife's and son's deaths, that this will cause a probe and hopefully some sort of help for WWE wrestlers on problem solving, decision making, etc.

I was never a Benoit fan(but I didn't despise him), more into the Rock, Hulk Hogan, and a few others, but he always appeared off to me. Maybe it was the missing tooth.
