Come on, is this the face of a killer?
Chris Benoit, one of the best technician wrestlers that the world has ever seen, was found dead after hanging himself with the weight machines in his homes. Previously, he killed his wife and his mentally retarded 7 year old boy.
What were his reasons for killing them? Who knows. Could years and years of desensibilisation to pain and suffering? A roid rage caused by all the steorids he used to take? I don't think so, taking in account the Bibles found next to his family's bodies. Certainly, it was religious fanatism mixed with some psychiatric disease. So, instead of blaming steroids or wrestling, blame religion!
The funniest thing is that he pretty much stole the "homicide, suicide, genocide, death defying" nickname that his partner Sabu had. Well, he didn't enough have time for the genocide part.
Benoit's highest point of his carreer came in WrestleMania XX, defeating Triple H for the World Heavyweight Championship. Here we see him celebrating with his long time Mexican friend the now also dead Eddie Guerrero, who had just defended successfully his WWE Championship.
The worst of all is that this has ruined the whole "Death of McMahon" storyline where the owner of the WWE died in a limo explosion and the search for the killer was just beggining. Vince McMahon had to appear on camera to express his condolences and present a tribute to Benoit and the next day had to apologize for broadcasting a tribute for a murderer.
UPDATE NOTE:
A couple of videos from Benoit's greates moments used to be here. But the bastards at youtube pulled them out of their website. So instead, here's a photo tribute to Nancy Benoit, better known in the wrestling world as "Woman".
No wonder Benoit killed her!
