Yeah that Nancy Wikipedia entry being traced to someone from Stamford is definitely spooky as hell. I never bought the idea that it was a mere coincidence. That's WAY too close to home. I'll always wonder what's the real story behind that.
Vince knew by the time they cancelled Raw that Benoit had very likely done it. The fact that he changed it to a tribute show knowing that still bothers me.

They traced the Wiki edit to some kid named Matthew Greenberg. He claims when he heard that Nancy was sick he just jokingly edited the page to say she was dead. They interviewed him about it. Funnily enough, his house is around the corner from WWE offices. Read Chris & Nancy: The True Story Of The Benoit Murders. There's a link around TSC in the Wrestling Books thread.

They had the Benoit Memorial Show..Punk was crying, Austin was on the show and in town and he said he loved him. Is that show still out and about? Or did they do everything in their power to get it off YouTube?

I still can't believe muthafukkas actually thought Kevin Sullivan was the mastermind behind the murders. Benoit's brain was scrambled eggs.....and he was one of those guys that wrestled at an extremely high intensity.

All those years of chairshots and headbutts pretty much made him senile. :francis:

I had a DVD recorder at the time and I recorded it. Crazy thing is it disappeared on me the next day and I never took the disc out. I've checked every DVD I recorded and nothing.

I'm sure that Benoit suffered from CTE and that may have led him to doing the fukked up shyt that he did. Still don't understand how these wrestlers cant have a union or damn health insurance for putting their bodies on the line 200 plus days a year.

Jesse Ventura tried that, but didn't Hogan put a stop to that?

I always wonder what Eddie would have thought of the situation. Being extremely religious, would he have thrown Chris into the bushes or would he try to find a reason for why it happened.

This all probably would have never happened if Eddie hadn't passed. Losing Eddie was what caused his major downfall.
