WWE Wrestler Chris Benoit murders his family.

[TEAK36]

I am really shocked as I have been a WWE fan for years, and Chris Benoit always seemed to be one of the good guys.

According to the link, he killed his wife and son, and then killed himself.

Are you serious? Professional wrestling isn't real. They are all acting a part. However he may appear in his professional role bears no relationship to his real life.

Hi Chompu,

I have always known that the wrestling is choreographed, call me sad, but I still find it entertaining.

I would love to see WWE banned.

To me it is nothing more than street thuggery dressed up in the name of entertainment.

Many young kids copy these morons and think it is ok to smash a chair across someones head or kick them while they are on the floor.

My teenage son sometimes watches it (against my wishes) and I caught part of one recently where the "action" had gone outside the ring into a nearby alleyway.

Three guys were kicking one guy who was lying on the floor in this dark alleyway.

As I said nothing more than street thuggery that glorifies violence and pain, and is a symbol of one of the problems in American society.

Just a shame it is popular outside the US as well.

My two sons watch it and I`ve told them it`s all acting etc and they are not allowed to copy any of the moves...what happens?....my oldest comes in from the garden saying "the youngest has just done a Batista Bomb on him"...when I asked him why he said "because he done a FU on me" :o\

WTF?????

There are a few theories about what happened on IMDB http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0072240/board

It's very sad to think he's wiped out his family!
