Had the chance to meet him he was a great guy who interacted greatly with all the fans, just seemed like a normal bloke and It's shocking to believe he could have murdered his family, But as I've said you never know :( .
 
I aint really watched the WWE for years now as the storylines, characters were getting stupid, and sick, thought that was bang out of order the way they used the Eddie death, didn't they start some sort of feud with his wife and chavo getting on Ray Mysterio, adn that McMahon death was absolutely pathetic as well, i watch the TNA me now, gone to stupid WWE.

According to WWE.com they have some more information on it that they've been asked by the sheriff's to report just yet. Sounds suspicious to me.

From the site

WWE.com has further information relating to both the investigation and the cause of death, but the Fayette County Sheriff’s Department has requested that WWE.com not release any additional details at this time.
 
theres all sorts floating around the internet now, such as :

Sources in the Fayette County Police Department are now working under the theory that Chris Benoit killed Nancy on Saturday, son Daniel on Sunday, and then killed himself earlier today. This story is making its way out through the AP news wire and FOX News.

Benoit was found dead in his weight room. Nancy was found dead in the living room. Daniel was found dead in his bedroom, according to an unnamed source in the department.

Lt. Tommy Pope told ABC News "the instruments of death were located on the scene," but didn't specify what those were or where they were found. Pope said the department was not actively searching for any suspects outside the house.
its still early days though to get a reasonable answer about their deaths :(

also does anyone think that they will cancel ECW aswell, then broadcast another tribute or just continue as normal?

Apparently they gonna continue as normal now all this has come out, I doubt they would have even done the tribute last night if they'd known then what they know now.

How come they are even getting the information in the first place, surely the police would be keeping things under wraps?


The americans have little rats inside their forces and the news reporters probaiblly gave them some money to get info about the case and what was going on.

Do they wear little uniforms and live in cages at police headquarters? :p

But yeah, I agree with you.
 
Christ benoit cancelled Vengence on Sunday night. Apparantly he killed his wife and kid over the weekend so this is most likely why he cancelled for "personal ressons" then apparantly killed himself on the Monday after, rumours are going round he strangled his wife and kid :( . Also the WWE asked authorities to check the hosue after freinds of Benoit had reported to WWE they had recieved suspicious text messages from him. All very odd and I wonder just what exactly went on and why this happened :(
 
From WWE.com


According to lead investigator Lt. Tommy Pope, of the Fayette County Sheriff’s Department, in Fayetteville, Ga., the deaths of WWE Superstar Chris Benoit, wife Nancy and son Daniel were the result of a double murder-suicide, WWE.com has learned.

Benoit failed to appear both at Saturday’s live event in Beaumont, Tx., and WWE’s Vengeance: Night of Champions in Houston Sunday night, after informing WWE of a family emergency. Several curious text messages sent by Benoit early Sunday morning prompted concerned friends to alert Richard Hering, VP of Government Relations for WWE, Inc. Hering, in turn, spoke with Fayette County sheriffs Monday, and requested that they respond to the Benoit residence to check on him and his family.

Authorities representing the Sheriff’s Department initially had a difficult time entering Benoit’s new Fayetteville home Monday afternoon, which had been guarded by two large German Shepherds roaming freely around the property. Once authorities entered the residence, they quickly located the bodies of Benoit, Nancy and Daniel. WWE was notified of the discovery at approximately 4 p.m.

At 10 p.m. Monday night, Lt. Pope held a press conference in conjunction with Scott Ballard, the district attorney for Fayette County. The press conference officially ruled authorities’ findings as a double murder-suicide from within the home.

WAGA, a FOX-owned and operated television station in Atlanta, reported that investigators believe Benoit killed his wife and 7-year-old son over the weekend, then himself on Monday.

The three bodies have been received by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation’s crime lab, in Decatur, Ga., where autopsies will be performed Tuesday morning. Toxicology reports will not become available for at least two weeks.

WWE.com has further information relating to both the investigation and the cause of death, but the Fayette County Sheriff’s Department has requested that WWE.com not release any additional details at this time.
