Chris Benoit: Discuss

[Kiffy Lube]

There's no social justice from this.......I'm the judge, jury and executioner here.

Motherfucker killed his wife and child.....cut and dry.

No Sullivan theories

Pretty far off topic, I didn't mention any conspiracy theories. This is actually one story I fully believe. I'll tell ya all about my favorite conspiracies later in bed.

The one good thing that came from the Benoit situation(and I use “good thing” EXTREMELY loosely) is that tragedy FINALLY forced WWE to talk drug testing seriously.

Eddie’s death was the precursor but the Benoit stuff is when they took the shit seriously.

But let’s get back to talking about Benoit the wrestler. What’s everyone’s favorite Benoit match?

The Mania Triple Threat. It's pretty much my vision of what a 5 Star match is.

Ladder match with Jericho at the Rumble, WrestleMania XX, and some of his J Cup matches as Wild Pegasus

His J-Cup victory against the Great Sasuke is a world-beater.

I’ve got the Mania triple threat and King of The Ring 01 Triple Threat with Jericho and Austin(the match where he broke his neck) as my two favorites.

Against Angle at Rumble 03.

It used to be Angle/Benoit at the Rumble but over time I don't think it holds up with ROH matches doin' some better back and forth. The Triple Threat still holds up though so I guess I will go with that.

His shit with Regal and that Triple H match on Raw after the Triple threat is another underrated match. I wanna see what others post.

Which match with Hunter? They had an Ironman in 04 that I remember being pretty good although it had a shitty finish

Some honorable mentions would also be TLC 3, The WrestleMania 2000 match between Angle and Jericho, and maybe the infamous tag match with Jericho vs. Triple H and Austin.

 

[Jimmy King]

Any of his matches with Jericho and Angle in WWE were great, and the mania 20 triple threat was great.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

That would be the one if Shawn Michaels got involved late. It also led to a fun Michaels/Benoit match but it wasn't nearly as good.

Wasn’t a huge fan of the WM2000 double belt match. Might have to watch it again

 

[Crippler]

Number 1 all-time favorite Benoit match is, with Jericho against the two men power trip.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

Oh yeah that tag with Jericho v.s HHH/Austin is awesome too. I almost brought up the ladder match at the Rumble with Jericho as well but I'm not really a big fan of ladder matches.
