    Keep us up todate cause the other news services outside of georgia are in slow motion on news about this.

      As Psyblast posted in his reasoning for deleting Quick6's post, WHAT PART OF NO SPECULATION DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND...

      Next speculative post gets celled. I am as serious as it gets with this. Everyone here is a part of the wrestling community, true, but some of us moreso than others. I knew this guy. Knew as in if I walked up to him, he would actually say "Hi". The last thing I need is to come on here and read what you guys think happened and what happened with Kevin Sullivan and what one of you thinks he is capable of.

            I haven't watched wrestling in awhile, but the Crippler was part of my growing up. I swear the only moves i would do were the Crippler Crossface and figure 4 on my brother. Its so sad one of my heroe's from before has gone. RIP Chris and the Benoit family.

            I always remembered how he was the toughest guy in the business even though he was one of the shortest and smallest superstars out there. His flying head butt, man crazy and all his snap suplex's, no matter how big the guy was.

            He put his all into every match and that's what i loved about him. I still can't believe he suplexed Big Show out of the ring to win a Royal Rumble.

            I think we should celebrate his life and honor his career and his family by talking about great matches or what made him one of your favorite wrestlers.

              Sorry cjkool,

              Until I can get that confirmed, via the web, I'm not going to allow that post on here. I hope you can understand.

                Man I wouldnt lie about anything like this. Benoit was one of my favorite wrestlers. This was just reported on Fox 5 news here in Atlanta. They were live in front of the home and the Fayette county police department. That what was reported. Ill check the Fox 5 news website to see if they have anything on there to back it up.

                  I'm not calling you a liar. I really really hope you can understand that even if my mother came on here and posted something like that, I wouldn't let it stay until everyone could read it themselves, instead of hearing it 2nd hand.

                  Please...don't be difficult with this. This is hard enough for everyone who was/is a fan of his.

                      "I vividly remember a Booker T/Chris Benoit weekly feud on Nitro, best of 7. Good stuff."


                      This was one of my fondest memories of the old WCW as well. I have recently gotten away from watching wrestling as much as I used to, but back in those days it was must see TV for me. Benoit embodied toughness to me, I think because of his small stature and missing teeth. This is a sad day for all wrestling fans, and I hope that police are able to get to the bottom of this very quickly.

                          There were no signs of gunshot wounds or stabbing, according to Pope. Authorities are not ruling out other causes, such as poisoning, suffocation, or strangulation. Pope told ABC News that his department is looking at this situation as a "possible double murder, suicide."

                          Pope said "the instruments of death were located on scene," but would not specify what those instruments are or where in the house the bodies were found. Pope added the department is "not actively searching for any suspects outside of the house."

                            To piggy back off of this

                            The following is from ABCNews.com:

                            Wrestling star Chris Benoit, his wife, Nancy, and their 7-year-old son Daniel were found dead in their suburban Atlanta home Monday. The deaths are being investigated as a possible suicide and double homicide, authorities told ABC News.

                            Lt. Tommy Pope of the Fayette County Sheriff's Department told ABC News that Benoit had missed several appointments over the weekend, leading concerned parties to ask police to do a "welfare check." When sheriffs arrived at the Benoits' home, they found the wrestler, his wife, and their son dead.

                            There were no signs of gunshot wounds or stabbing, according to Pope. Authorities are not ruling out other causes, such as poisoning, suffocation, or strangulation. Pope told ABC News that his department is looking at this situation as a "possible double murder, suicide."

                            Pope said "the instruments of death were located on scene," but would not specify what those instruments are or where in the house the bodies were found. Pope added the department is "not actively searching for any suspects outside of the house."

                            An autopsy has been scheduled for Tuesday morning at 10 a.m. However, it could be weeks before there is a result.

                            Benoit, 40, was scheduled to spar against C.M. Punk in a pay-per-view event Sunday night in Houston for the Extreme Champion Wrestling title. But Benoit canceled before the event, citing personal reasons.

                            A native of Edmonton, Alberta, Benoit was known in the ring as the "Canadian Crippler."
