Him and his family were found dead at their home today.

He was a very well loved wrestler and had a passion for what he did and the people all around him. He will be up there with Eddie.

RIP Chris.

wtf Curse of WWF

must have been a gas leaked?

You'd of thought something like that. Any attacks would have been made obvious in bodily harm and mess around the home. Clearly something of a leaked nature is to blame.

i rek0n Hulk Hogan did it

Considering this has just happened within the last handful of hours ago I find that jokes are deeply insulting and inconsiderate!

he was supposed to wrestle last night at wwe vengeance ppv but missed it due to a family emergency.I wounder what happened,seems very suspicous

His wife and son were taken into hospital because they started throwing up blood.

Well Eddie had a heart attack. Prob because of steriods. He used to take a lot of bad drugs too.

Beniot and his whole family are found dead. Thats something completely unrelated.

Raw is on at 1am.

Someone else said that to me on IRC, I haven't watched wrestling in a many years, so care to explain this?

They have killed him off in some sort of murder mystery situation by blowing up his limo and Vince having physic visions of something bad happening. I think hes staged his own death. read up on it at www.wwe.com

Yeah that sounds pretty retarded, wrestling is fake, but there's no need to turn it into a T.V soap with stupid story lines.

Thats the problem people seem to have. It is a soap in its own regard. The majority of wrestling isn't fake. The results are and the matches are played out to a plan for entertainment.

Wrestling is a easily mistaken for fake fighting and its not. The acting is funny but when you appreciate it for this it becomes a soap for a specific audience.

Fighting in soaps. Now thats laughable.

Of course its not storyline. What a stupid thing to assume.

No one has assumed it's a storyline. The fact that no big news network in the US has reported on it means that even they are reluctant to fully believe it. But the fact Vince has appeared on tonights show means that it is true. RIP

It is silly to assume it about 20 posts later from wwe fans confirming it.

Anyway. Tune in to Sky sports 3 for a 3 hour tribute to Chris.

The suicide rumor could be a strong one as Chris missed the Sunday night event for fear of his loved ones. Apparently nothing was wrong with Chris.

Johnny|lucidcomposure · 26 Jun 2007 at 01:37

What a shame. Its heartbreaking to have to watch the superstars and staff talk about him.
Linoge: I wont carry on a debate in a remembrance thread I am sorry.

I can't find any proper news agencies covering this. I think, and hope, that it is a hoax.

I'm sorry its not a hoax.

Johnny|lucidcomposure · 26 Jun 2007 at 01:57

I can confirm it because I was told several hours ago from a trusty source. It is on wwe.com as real news.

I have followed wwe for years and story line deaths and real deaths are so different.

The arena is completely empty. Everyone is crying. Its a 3 hour tribute show (it was going to be 3 hours anyway but for vince's story line death)

Johnny|lucidcomposure · 26 Jun 2007 at 02:00

Eddie was found dead by his own family in a hotel in the morning of a new day. That got to news very fast. Beniot's whole family was found dead from who knows. That is why you have no streaming news bouncing back.

Believe me, I would love to be proven wrong and that Chris and his family are still alive but the sad truth is not to be fake.

would be a sick joke if fake, but still nice if it were. Sadly this isn't so, because the WWE would comit career suicide if it was.

I have just noticed that I have worded that wrong. Apologies.

You may take this lightly as I am not to sure on this. Apparently they moved into a new suburban home so there is a good chance that there is maybe a leak someplace and this has affected his Son and Wife. Chris would not of been around to suffer so much with being away for ECW. Saying that, his wife and son were probably with him.

If it happened then I am upset because a family died. That would be a tragedy, regardless of what family it had happened to. I can't help feeling that this is some sort of elaborate publicity stunt though, and that I've entered a thread full of gullible wrestling fans...for which I apologise in advance should I be wrong, in case I'm not back before this thread trails off.

I am sorry but I am not a gullible wrestling fan. I don't believe the story lines. I am an adult who can appreciate it for what it is. I understand that you do not follow wrestling and are probably aware of many fake story lines.

You can be assured that by morning today it will be official news.
