WWE is sad to report that Chris Benoit and his family have been found dead in their home. Police are currently investigating the circumstances surrounding the deaths. Tonight's Raw will be a tribute to Chris and his family. From WWE.com

It has to be. They had big plans for Benoit. Sad to have to ask if "this is serious" with all the dumb shit WWE has been doing. Just ... wow. I'll watch out for updates, but right now, all I can say is RIP Benoit. Truly a legend. So sad the family had to go, too.

It's official. It was reported elsewhere before WWE posted it. Amazing loss. Just ... sad. "Woman" and Benoit both passed away.

The WWE just told its talent and released on its web site that Chris Benoit was found dead by Atlanta police.

Benoit, wife Nancy aka Woman and son Daniel were all found dead. We have no other details at this moment.

All plans for Raw tonight have been scrapped and they will do a show on the life of Benoit


From Meltzer and the Observer.

I honestly have no idea what to say about this. Him and his entire family. There must have been foul play involved. Would this have been avoided if Benoit was at the PPV? Would it have been too late at that point?

Either way, Rest In Peace, Benoit family.

It's pretty much a lock that it's murder. I highly doubt Benoit and his wife had a suicide pact, don't they have kids? This is fucked up for them... Fuck. I'm gonna need to break out the Benoit DVD.

I thought I read he missed the PPV because he had a family emergency. Hmmm, so many questions yet so little answers. I wish this is a fake story, but I'm pretty sure it's not. RIP Benoit. =( First Eddie, now Chris.

This is just more proof to the already unavoidable fact that death is WAY TOO FUCKING SERIOUS to make a FAKE STORYLINE out of it.

Karma's a bitch, Vince. What're you going to do now?

Seriously, I demand Malenko get a World Championship reign if Mysterio gets one for Rey. Also, I guess we know HoF inductee number one for next year.

Yeah, that's pretty agreeable. If they can take a chump like Mysterio and give him the title the least they can do is fork one over to Malenko, who has also never held a World Title...has he?

Showtime, tonight will be a Benoit (and family?) memorial show. They just learned of the news (as did the world) within an hour ago so they are making very last minute switches - all other plans for tonight will be thrown out apparently. Hopefully the McMahon storyline will be cut and they'll learn not to fuck with the seriousness of death.
