If you were here more often and doing your job, this wouldn’t be a problemOh I got a list of Benoit matches, hold up, cause ya'll be forgetting some Blassics
He's a piece of shit who killed his son and wife. And his white knights who make excuses over him having CTE make me sick because hundreds of athletes have had CTE and he's the ONLY one who murdered his family. And it's his own fault he had CTE because no one made him treat his head like a test dummy. That was him being a dumbfuck.
The best thing WWE has ever done is erase that monster's legacy.
He may be the only one who murdered his family, but he's not the only one who's murdered. Case in point: Aaron Hernandez. There are probably plenty of other athletes who murdered and have CTE as well.
And nobody white knights his actions. CTE is a serious disease that causes a myriad of mental effects, such as dementia, alzheimers, tremors, and amnesia. Chris Benoit had CTE. People can say he had it and still come to terms with the fact he killed his family. The two are not mutually exclusive, dude.
Edit: That last remark was a bit rude of me, so I'll change it to this:
Nobody white knights Benoit and not a single person has said, "Chris Benoit is innocent because he had CTE" in this thread. People that do say such things are either trolling or might have mental problems themselves. But people accept the fact that Benoit is guilty for what he did. It doesn't make him a monster, but a tragedy.

But it isn't sick, we don't have to like someone because he had good in-ring work. He's a murderer/ a killer that smothered his child and killed his wife then killed himself...like a coward, to some people that supersedes anything.
And he actually did it to himself with the amount of concussions he was causing to himself and not notifying anyone. This great ring work you guys call it, actually caused his brain degradation that led to what happened. If more people wrestled like him then who knows what the hell would happen. So I challenge the notion he was great in ring as well because he wasnt safe to himself.
Remember this?
I think he is a perfect example of what not to do in ring.
Nobody says you have to like Benoit for what he did. But what you're saying is with the power of hindsight. Nobody knew what CTE really was until at least 2005, when it was too late to help Benoit or any athlete from the 70's, 80's or 90's. Most people thought CTE came from boxing and boxing alone. Hell, it took until 2018 for the NFL to admit football causes CTE.
Benoit would have had zero idea his wrestling style would do long term damage to his health nor did anyone else.
But you guys have your opinion. Others have theirs. Let them have theirs.
To be fair to Benoit, very few people ever really suffered long term health effects from that style. Only Dynamite, Benoit, and Misawa (I believe) suffered major health effect from it.For sure, I just want people to understand the ramifications of his go-for-broke style in the ring, besides looking at surface level stuff like "great match"...yeah but at what cost? So by saying it's great...a person is saying that style of match is great, which is no dice with me.
