Benoit is a wrestling legend, no matter what happened this past weekend. I was literally shocked by this because I've been a wrestling fan all of my life and Benoit has always been a favorite.

I heard a slightly different story. I read that Benoit's wife killed their son. Benoit came home and found this, flipped out, and killed his wife out of anger. They were both dead for a day or two, then he hanged himself. I don't know what to believe, but I WANT to believe my story.

Either way, it's a tragedy, and I highly doubt steroids were involved, as a lot of people have been stating. The WWE is pretty tight when it comes to steroid use, now more than ever, and they would have found it in his system in their regularly scheduled testings.

I dunno, it's just sad.

I agree, either story is horrible, but two different sources mentioned how the son died a day after the wife. Maybe they had the same source, maybe not. It will probably be at least a week before it is revealed, and it doesn't change the end result.

And trust me, steroid use is active in WWF(I refuse to change that last letter lol). I have my own sources who are close to it, and it is just more well disguised, usually because they are tested initially with it already in the system, so if they keep taking it, their levels obviously don't increase unless they increase the intake since then.

But I do concur about it being sad :(
