World Wrestling Entertainment is deeply saddened to report that today Chris Benoit and his family were found dead in their home. There are no further details at this time, other than the Benoit family residence is currently being investigated by local authorities.
Tonight's episode will be dedicated to Chris.
NOTE: Not only was Benoit and his wife found dead, but so was his son, Daniel. It's suspected that his other two sons were in Canada at the time.

Wonder what happened, if he could have killed them then killed himself.
If that were the case I doubt WWE would reveal that.

True.
Benoit was supposed to fight in the ECW Championship match last night at Vengeance. However, he said there was a family emergency and had to go back to Atlanta.
I think I remember reading some reports lately that he had been showing signs of a little depression.

they said that they didn't find any gun wounds and so far foul play wasn't involved.

Welp, it's been officially called a double-murder and suicide. They say Benoit killed his wife and son, then himself. They said don't rule out a possible suffocation, strangulation, or poisoning.

Yeah it's messed up news....who didn't love Benoit? It's tough news to swallow o f the early reports of how he's a potential murderer. I really really hope they are false but alas it looks to be true....
I don't care if he is a murderer but I am sure everyone is shocked that Benoit is dead and he probably was going to be ECW champ if it wasn't for this.

Never liked Benoit because the flying headbutt is the worst wrestling move ever and he was always one of the most obvious steroid abusers. Something really should be done about steroids/drugs in wrestling.
