Dang. Matt just knew it once he saw Undertaker and Michelle walked in for the meeting. That is some intuition

[@christophercharlesonelifetime]

Tracy Smothers on Chris Benoit. See it. Michelle McCool was rumoured to be having a fling with Benoit and Nancy knew. Taker would have known. There was enough reason to be murdered...but to involve the whole family makes it sickening. OPERATION RAW DEAL. FBI. IT WAS AN 18MONTH OPERATION FOR THE STEROID TRADE. BENOIT WAS FRAMED AND USED.

[@gangrath]

In fairness, he was missing for 3 days or so and missed a massive main event he was booked for. So if the entire cast is called into a meeting when one of the superstars is missing, and then seeing people coming out crying and sad, then you could put two and two together

For me it was the fact there was no crowd there. In hindsight that suggested to me, WWE weren't 100% sure of what had really happened and wanted to cover themselves. If a crowd had been there during the show, they would have found out during the broadcast too that Benoit was the culprit. And then, it would have become an incredibly awkward situation.

Although WWE has tried to distance itself from Chris Benoit over the years, he was once a huge part of the sport. Plus, his passing helped educate the world about the effects that contact sports can have on someone’s health. Chris had an impressive wrestling career for 22 years and took home several titles in that time. Even on the night of his passing, Chris was expected to win his third world championship at a WWE event. That moment never came as Chris was found to have taken his own life in June 2007. This came after he took the life of his son and wife. Further research has shown several concussions and damage led Chris to suffer from behavioral issues and dementia.

[@fuzzluvver69]

All the morons in the comments section trying to put the full blame onto CTE. Nobody is disputing that he HAD CTE, but it's a question of how much thay affected his actions. And the problem is that people are talking as though Benoit was a husk of a man incapable of rational thought, when in reality literally a matter of days before this happened he was still very much capable of putting together and carrying out complex wrestling matches. His peers said thay he had been normal and they would never have suspected anything like this. And even more importantly, this wasn't a spontaneous action where he did what he did in a single outburst - no, it was significantly after Nancy was murdered that he then made the decision to end Daniel's life, it was a very much considered action. He was a murderer, end of story.

[@bmxriderforlife1234]

​@convert313 apparently the phone was later recovered but not for a while after the initial investigation. Same with his suicide ish note. There aren't as many problems with the case as people think. Part kf the confusion is the WWE trying to hide the cte stuff, the media already not liking wrestling and trying to spin the steroid case. The often ignored fact that he had previously been put on some experimental pain meds that were shown to cause aggression issues down the line and randomly even after the drug was removed from the system. Along with some other shit. Like the whole them spinning his son having fragile x syndrome. And the son while not having fragile x syndrome possibly being not the healthiest kid. Technically speaking as a kid I only had asthma and a dental issue, yet I was also part of literal medical studies and had unresearched health issues. I'm gonna guess likely undiagnosed low iron or something like that. Him and his wife apparently had turbulent marriage and issues. Both had alcohol issues apparently. Among other stresses. Plus possible added brain injury right before the incident. Along with recent steroid related issues where he was gonna not be able to use them probably but Vince was still making people feel like if you didn't you'd get fired. Likely fact is. Toxic workplace environment lack of proper safety standards around head hits. Road usage destroying his testicle function and the ridiculously needed levels of trt plus who knows what else. And his best friend dying and the WWE playing it off ass like recreational drugs vs ped and pain killers from the business.

Well besides the fact the one making the initial call for the welfare check happened to say well he's a very religious man and wouldn't you know there was Bibles next to every single body, then the fact that he was able to take his own life with the weight set that would be an improbability to do for most other people by themselves and then of course Chavo has to come in and cover for him.

It must have been a surreal day

[@aaazzz090]

Matt Hardy over the years has been way off the reservation, with a lot of the stuff he has said, this here is a another example,,,,

[@DWtechfan]

I think WWE actually knew what happened or had a good idea what might've happened but opted to run the Benoit tribute show anyway. CTE can cause people to act differently but it doesn't alter your personality. It seems Benoit had issues long before concussions and talk of CTE. Dave Penzer, Justin Roberts, and William Regal all said that he had a dark side. Regal implied it but didn't outright say anything. New Jack said it best, he had a severe brain injured from a cracked skull and he didn't kill his family. Fans will go to great lengths to blame Kevin Sullivan or CTE but the truth is Benoit was mentally disturbed and kept his emotions bottled up. So that powder keg was primed to blow up and short of WWE forcing Benoit to retire before 2007, no one could stop the inevitable.

[@thafearess1]

Cause the inevitable was that he was destined to die sometime soon anyway had he not committed the Murder/suicide…or so I read. Is that right? I saw somewhere that they said his brain was so severely damaged that he didn’t have a long life ahead of him.

[@DWtechfan]

@@thafearess1 I believe it was a couple big health issues that would've caused Benoit's death as reported by his autopsy. He had taken steroids and prescription meds along with drinking alcohol to extremes that his heart was enlarged. This is what also killed Eddie Guerrero and ironically would have killed Benoit within a year or two anyway. His brain was so severely damaged that he also could have died from a stroke or aneurysm not even including things like dementia or other complications arising from that damage. Many people close to Chris said he and Nancy had a very volatile relationship and she had filed for divorce before. I believe she confronted him and said she was taking Daniel with her and Benoit snapped. Possibly had been drinking or was drunk on top of being high off of pain meds. It was the perfect storm sitting on top of a powder keg that had been primed to explode for many years. It's just weird that if he had waited and not killed his family and himself, he'd have been dead in a year or two anyway.

Cris was a Legend and no one really knows the whole story but we should all find forgiveness for him and celebrate his Carreer even if it is on a smaller level the guy was an incredible talent and entertainer.. and even better Wrestler.

[@TrailerParkCinderella]

WWE knew the truth before it became public. So they went out of there way to give him that tribute, so when people complain he isn’t in the HOF know that WWE did that tribute show knowing what he did

[@FinalDestinationDeepspace]

@@TrailerParkCinderella nope....They absolutely did not know the truth, Vince McMahon said this him self in and interview. They had no idea the circumstances until afterwards..when they knew I'm not sure. But that is why I said that he at least got a tribute before the whole story came out. 🙄 and we should forgive him now.

no matter what you say. chris isnt to blame. the amount of years and trauma he took to the head it wasn't chris. there's studies that show psychopaths have a deformed brain and why they kill so many people and over the time chris' brain eventually turned was mashed potato and just lost his marbles. if he was going out hes taking his loved one with him is heartbreaking
