What about him being a cowardly arsehole, fine kill yourself if you need to but don’t take others with you.

Just a shitbag.

Benoit’s wife Nancy, who worked as a wrestling stage manager under the name “Woman,” filed for divorce in 2003 (they married in 2000) alleging cruel treatment, but later dropped the complaint and her request for a restraining order, notes AP. Benoit had two children from a previous relationship, according to a second AP report.

No, it’s really not. If you’re older than 14 (16, I guess, for the stupider amongst us) and you’re still an avid fan of wrestling something has gone afoul.

OK this whole line is totally childish. It is like what people say about adults who still play video games. If you care what other people do with their time then you must be a really small person. It is there life not yours.

As for the Benoit murder, seeing that I’m mentally ill (as it is known), I’m inclined to have some kind of sympathy for Benoit seeing that his actions were seemingly fueled by some kind of mental disorder.

Most people who are mentally ill will not kill or harm anybody; however, very severe mental illness (genetic or inherited) may cause a person to totally lose their sense of raationality.

Based off the fact that the crimes had a religious flavor to them (a tell-tale sign of mental illness) and the fact that I honestly believe that he was going to kill himself all along (I don’t buy the theory that he killed himself as a way to escape punishment or condemnation for his earlier crimes), I’m inclined to believe that he was severely mentally ill. Mental illness at its extremes can be a horrible, horrible, horrible thing.

Liking professional wrestling is just admitting you have really, really bad taste. It’s like walking into your prom wearing a “Big Dog” t-shirt with sweat stains around the armpits. It’s like ordering a hamburger in a Chinese restaurant. It’s like getting a tattoo of an anime character on your wrist. It’s a bunch of shitty actors playing make believe while they’re oiled up and half naked.

Anyone who doesn’t grow out of wrestling is either a hick or suffering from some kind of lapse in their emotional development that causes them to find comfort in slabs of man-meat hugging and storylines that are fall somewhere between something written by a 14 year old on deviantart and second tier soap operas on Telemundo.

The WWE was right to do the tribute as it was to his wrestling and the guy is one of the greatest of all time like him or not

“Right to do the tribute”…

Thats beautiful.

I mean, except for the fact that the very first initial word the wwe got was all three found dead.

In the real world that’s called a red fucking flag and considering he had just blown off his wrasslin appearance to go deal with a “family emergency” and then they all three are dead the next day - that doesn’t seem like an odd coincidence?

Maybe, just maybe, the geniuses at wwe should have held off or went with plan B? After all, by the time the tribute was over the news channels were reporting murder/suicide right?

Other posters claimed the wrestlers paying tribute appeared to know something was very wrong.

Glad you enjoyed the tribute. A moving tribute to an asshole who beat and strangled his wife, waited a day and then smothered his 7 yr old son.

Sorry but even if the guy was my very best hero of a pretend sport geared for 8yr olds to enjoy - that kinda all gets erased when you smother your son in his fucking bed.

So exactly how much do the personal tastes of others concern you? Do you derive some sort of feeling of superiority over others based on your choice of tv programming? People usualy outgrow that sort of thing you know.

Really, its kind of like driving down the street in a neighborhood you dont live in and bitching about the color of the shutters on one of the houses. So fucking what?

Please T.C. would you step up to Kevin Hench the sports writer for fox and put him in his place if anyone can It would be you.

He gives a list and run down of all the wwf wrestlers who have died blaming steroids on their death stating that so and so died from pain killer O.D. but then adding that he used steroids in the past so it must have been the juice and others who killed themselves with gun shot’s and saying this guy also used A.S. in the past, WTF iF I had a good way to articulate my thought’s I would do it but sad enough I cant seem to put my thought’s on paper/screen very well.

This is my favorite:

“Mr. Perfect” Curt Hennig ? Found dead of a cocaine overdose at age 44 in his motel room on April 10, 2003, the morning of a match. Hennig’s father maintained that steroids and painkillers contributed to his death.

Sorry pops, but COCAINE contributed to your sons death. Crazy/

Yes. Wrestling is like NASCAR but somehow a thousand times worse. And by “somehow” I mean retarded man children in spandex roided up pretending to be athletes while performing a night time soap opera is a thousand times worse than NASCAR.

That’s kind of like saying people usually outgrow looking down on those who don’t wash their hands or pick their noses in public.

The street is a dirt road, the houses are double wides, the shutters are made out of siding from a station wagon. The dogs are chained to trees and emaciated while the toddlers are drinking Keystone light. The Christmas lights are up all year round and they’re running low on funyons and cheese puffs.

The people on this street prefer the dollar store to Walmart because when they go to Walmart they have to get all dressed up. One would assume there is a Calvin pissing on something sticker within at the least a 2 mile radius.

The fact that I am a living adult who witnesses this requires some kind of judgment to be made.

The fact that you are a living adult and are fitting people into a lame cultural stereotype based purely upon what tv show they watch require me to make the judgement that you are most likely a small minded person.

You know, the kind that hang out in trailer parks, fly confederate flags out of their pick up trucks, and attend “club meetings” wearing white sheets

Well I’m sure my mind is normal sized or else I’d have inflammation that would have killed me by now. Just because it’s a lame cultural stereotype does not mean it is an inaccurate cultural stereotype.

Good luck painting a Jew as a white supremacist. I think I already put that group into the wrasslin’ watcher subcategory, though.

Totally agree with you on this one. If you solved world hunger, instigated world peace and created automobiles that run on air…all that goes out the fucking window when you smother your 7 year old son.

There is no reason a father should ever hurt a 7 year old child, who is completely innocent of anything at that age. It makes me sick to imagine the fear that kid was experiencing leading up to his death, by his own father, a person that should protect and love him.

If you watch wrestling and enjoy it, you are probably mildly retarded. You should outgrow it by the time you start buying your own clothes. Flipping through the channels and passing it makes me dumber.

Make that 200 feet – we’re going for a caricature feel, here. This figure, by the way, is at most. This is an important distinction.

Strange.

For a ‘sport’ that only appeals to inbred yokels and trailer trash, they sure do seem to do pretty well with the cosmopolitan and sophisticated European crowd.

This whole conversation reminds me of the quote from Max von Sydow’s character in the Woody Allen movie Hannah And Her Sisters: “Can you imagine the level of a mind that watches wrestling?”

I’ll be interested to see if the conclusion is that this guy was mentally ill, clinically depressed, just had a really bad temper or what. This info will shape my judgements of this event.

“Sophisticated” isn’t the word that I would use to describe Europe. That is the world marketing firms use to sell European products. North American quality of life is ahead of most other places in the world.

If you are ignorant enough to stereotype the entire audience of a television program as inbred hicks, simply because of your perception of that tv show, then how different are you from the white supremacist?

Did you ever stop to consider that maybe some people watch wrestling for reasons other than the story lines or the acting? Maybe people enjoy the athletic aspect of it. You know, the acrobatics.

The statement “You watch wrestling, youre a hick!” makes about as much sense as “You watch the History Channel, youre a virgin!”

And since were all about some ignorance on this thread, shouldnt you be counting your money or something?
