Lamesauce. I wish they'd tell us more about why, but really...

Granted, I haven't kept up with wrestling since about age seventeen, but I will always remember Chris Benoit as a priemere wrestler and, more importantly, a 'proud' Canadian in the ring. Gone is the Wolverine, done is the Canadian Crippler but the Crossface will live on in infamy.

They can't really go into detail, since it looks like homicide.

Why anyone would kill a guy like Chris Benoit, and his 7 year old son, I have no idea. He certainly did nothing to deserve it.

Turn on your MSN or AIM so I can cry about it, please.

A sad sad day indeed. Last night's episode of RAW was devoted to Chris Benoit, and they cancelled the ongoing storyline (the demise of Vince McMahon) so that the boss could come out and everyone could talk about their memories.

As for what the wolverine had been up to lately, he just got drafted back to ECW, after holding the United States championship for a good reign on Smackdown.

Apparently he killed his wife and kid before taking his own life. The Why still seems unknown, or at least I don' know...

What a sad end.
