    World Wrestling Entertainment is deeply saddened to report that today Chris Benoit and his family were found dead in their home. There are no further details at this time, other than the Benoit family residence is currently being investigated by local authorities.

    Tonightâ??s Raw on USA Network will serve as a tribute to Chris Benoit and his family. WWE extends its sincerest thoughts and prayers to the Benoit familyâ??s relatives and loved ones in this time of tragedy.

    Oh wow :(
    When I was into WWF, the rivalry between him and Kurt Angle was one of my favorites.

    RIP.

    Wow...

    Maybe now Vince will realise that pretending to be dead isn't exactly respectful. It's bad enough coming less than two years after Eddie's death, but now this? Bloody hell...

    I looked at his profile on Wikipedia earlier today just to see what it is that he's up to or if he was still wrestling. How very creepy.

    wow - really hope this wasn't something sinister. I loved Benoit - a top wrestler, and someone who came across as having a genuine love for the sport.

    It's a little weird that they're not being clear on why he and his family were found dead. It usually means they're trying to be discrete about something embarrassing, and there are only a few things that could kill multiple people in a house.

    RIP, anyway.

    What the ****

    Man, Benoit was the best.

    Crippler Crossface forever.

    Weird thing that he and his family were found dead and it hasn't been called a murder.

    could be something as simple as carbon monoxide poisoning or something, or perhaps they can't release details until an autopsy or something..........

    This is, he wasnt at the Vengence PPV cos he has a family emergency. Dont know if this is related to those troubles or just a bad coincidence.

    O...M..G.

    I bought Vengeance, and expected to see him wrestle...family troubles they say. So I went to Wiki, since they have everything there...then POW. Chris Benoit Dead.

    R.I.P....just wow. @};-

    Actually its possible the reason he wasnt at the PPV is because his former tagteam partner Beef Wellington died over the weekend.

    Oh no. This is awful. Him and his family? Chris Benoit was one of the best technical wrestlers in the WWE, and has been for awhile.

    I haven't been on here or watched wrestling for quite a long time now.

    Chris, what has happened? I hope and pray that nothing sinister is behind you and your family's loss.

    I hope that it has nothing to do with that horrendous vince storyline!!!

    Interesting that the only sites reporting this are Wrestling oriented.
