Chris Benoit and family found dead

[Skios]

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 RAW on USA Network will serve as a tribute to Chris Benoit and his family. WWE extends its sincerest thoughts and prayers to the Benoit family’s relatives and loved ones in this time of tragedy.

A great entertainer and a great human being found dead, along with his wife and son. He left a house show on friday and missed last sunday's PPV due to 'family business'. Although nobody was sure what exactly was going on, pretty much everybody thought it was due to the passing of longtime friend and former tag team partner Beef Wellington.

I honestly don't know what to think about this. Professional wrestling has always been a guilty pleasure for me. Chris Benoit was a true athlete and one of the most highly skilled entertainers in the business. Although he did come between WCW booker Kevin Sullivan and his wife, he seemed like a good person, one of the few in 'the business' that didn't get caught up in the usual follies of superstardom. To think that he somehow took active part in this tragedy seems almost impossible. I think this is the first showbiz death in a long time that's actually affecting me...

My husband is a big wrestling fan, and was shocked when he turned on RAW last night to see the news about the death of Chris Benoit. I saw earlier on the news that it's being investigated as a murder/suicide..sad....

UPDATE****
Just saw om the news that the reports are that Chris Benoit strangeled his wife, smothered his son, and then hanged himself...
What a horrible scenerio....

This was really sad to hear about. God watch over his remaining two kids.

I didn't know that he had two other kids
I thought that the one he strangled was his only child.
Still praying for this family during this tough time.

This keeps getting stranger and stranger. I just saw on the news that his wifes death was posted on wikipedia 14 hours before their bodies were found by police.

I'm a big wrestling fan and Chris Benoit was one of my favorite performers, so this has weighed heavily on me of late.
His co-workers have to be going through a really hard time right now!
There's been a lot of speculation, but the important thing is that a family has been destroyed and I mourn their loss. And I will not hate Benoit like a lot of so-called fans do right now.

R.I.P., Chris, Nancy and Daniel. You will be missed!

I can't fathom this.
I've met Chris a few times, in Red Deer.
He seemed so polite and demure...

The tragic deaths of Chris Benoit and his wife Nancy and son Daniel have shocked the wrestling world. The police are calling it a double-murder-suicide, but is it really? Let’s look at some facts. It has been 10 years exactly since Nancy divorced Kevin Sullivan to marry Chris Benoit. In the 1980’s Sullivan, along with his then-wife Nancy, were running a gimmick in wrestling of how they were Satanists, and Nancy was known as “The Fallen Angel.” She later became known as “Woman.” The trouble with the Satanists gimmick was it was for real, and was not a work, or fake. In the 1990’s Kevin Sullivan was the booker for WCW, and he scripted his wife Nancy into having an affair with Chris Benoit who was a member of the Four Horsemen. This made for a good angle, except, the acting became reality as Chris and Nancy actually fell in love and Nancy divorced Sullivan to marry Benoit.



Benoit left the WCW to go to work for the WWE which was then known as the WWF. It is a fact that Sullivan threatened Benoit and told him he would kill him. Yes, that was 10 years ago, but Kevin Sullivan is no dummy. He is known for being a calculating, cold-hearted individual. Today, according to a source close to me, Kevin Sullivan is a high ranking member of the Satanic Church. The police need to consider the possibility that Sullivan carried out these gruesome murders in order to have his revenge, which is what Satanists live for. He could have entered the home, with an accomplice or accomplices and held the Benoit’s at gunpoint, Sullivan could have then bound up Nancy, and made Benoit and his son watch as he strangled the life out of her. Then the next day after making Benoit and his son spend the day in agony, murdered Benoit’s little boy because of his hatred for the offspring of Benoit and Nancy. Then he could have made Benoit wait an entire day before killing him to by hanging him in the basement.



By doing this, not only would Kevin Sullivan have lived out his Satanic Church creed with his lust for revenge, but he would have destroyed Chris Benoit’s reputation which is what has happened now as the wrestling world is attacking the memory of Chris Benoit remembering him as an insane baby killer and wife killer instead of the great World Champion wrestler and friend that he was.



Satanists hate the Bible and the police have stated that a Bible was found next to the bodies of Benoit’s wife and son. This would serve as a bizarre calling card as if to either say “What good did your Bible do you?” or to throw off investigators to keep them from suspecting Sullivan and his Satanists would have been involved.



Another thing to note is the fact that Kevin Sullivan was also associated with Sherri Martel, who died just a few days before the bodies of Chris Benoit, and his family was found, and the full details of Martell’s death have not been made known as of the time of this writing.



I wonder why the police have not even considered investigating the possibility the Kevin Sullivan killed Benoit, Nancy, and their child. It is certainly a possibility worth looking in to.



Also, Benoit was going to be crowned ECW World Champion on Sunday night. Why would he murder his family and kill himself when he was going to be on top again and make lots more money?



Why would he tie his wife up before killing her? He would have no reason to, but Kevin Sullivan sure would!



Sure he had some problems with Nancy, but that was 4 years ago and what married couple doesn’t have problems? Remember also that they reconciled and as far as everyone knows there has been no other incidents reported.



One also needs to consider the fact that Benoit loved his kids and was so proud of his son that was killed. His kids wore suits and ties to his wrestling events and was proud of their dad. He was loved and respected by all those who knew him.



In my opinion, there is no way he would have murdered his family. This whole murder case has Satanists written all over it and Sullivan is a Satanist and has the motive to murder them.



I am encouraging anyone who reads this to send this to police authorities and circulate it on the internet, so these facts can be investigated, before the case is closed and Benoit is written off in history a murderer. If Sullivan is the real killer, justice should be served!



As a former Pro Wrestler myself, now a born again Christian and world wide evangelist, I am hoping and praying for justice no matter who is responsible.
