Do you think it will ever be ok to talk about Chris Benoit's career again?

[Hey_zeus]

You can try to but it's not much to discuss without talking about the acts. I'm fine with him being erased from everyone's collective memory.

 

[norfwestdc]

We don't need to fukk him.

 

[Dog Based Gremlin]

Miss the guys who took wrasslin seriously like a sport

 

[Mr. Manhattan]

his memory and reputation is in the shadow realm

[Damnshow]

Like every wrestler, besides New Jack and few more, said nice things about chris benoit wrestling career.
Benoit is a scumbag, plenty of other wrestlers to say nice things about.

Unfortunately

You know what's even more unfortunate, the 6 year old child that got murdered by his own father. fukk Chris Benoit.

 

[Womb Raider]

Nope


Dude is an obvious stain on the WWEs name, they can’t just sweep it under the rug so he’s indefinitely ignored in all avenues

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

I mean what is there to talk about:

• He was lukewarm promo wise
• His brains were scrambled cable by the time he got the belt
• His title reign was forgettable
• The only memorable match he had besides his match with Angle, involved Kevin Sullivan fighting in a fukking bathroom
• His reckless ass almost paralyzed Sabu
• He birthed stupid ass wrestlers that think workrate=the only thing you need to be a superstar
• Most of the IWC treating him like he was a martyr despite being a demonic piece of shyt
• Him doing bodily harm to himself when he fukks up a match

I'm over the BeenWah hype looking back at how stupid he was as a wrestler and a piece of shyt.

 

[King Kai]

It’s not really taboo to acknowledge his skills. As long as you keep in mind that he’s a deranged coward at the end of the day.

People will naturally not want to talk about him because of the latter which is perfectly normal.

[Rollie Forbes]

I watch Chris Benoit matches, and I listen to R. Kelly.

 

[Finn Baller]

Not like he had any classic moments like Austin with the beer truck or Rock/Mankind "This is Your Life". He had great matches in the mechanical sense but he didn't really make any mark as a character

 

[FunkDoc1112]

You can keep the matches up for anyone who's fine with compartmentalizing (I can watch anything from him before Eddie's death) but absolutely no reason to ever bring him up.

 

[Peter Parker]

He's in my top 5, never seen a bad Benoit match and he was one of my favorites as a kid. He's also the reason I stopped watching wrestling regularly because that shyt fukked me up as a kid.

I can watch his shyt now as an adult, it just kind of is what it is but like everyone else said, no reason to bring him up or bother talking about him considering what he did and how close it ties to what he did for a living
