In other words, you know nothing about him...no one did. He is...excuse me, was a phony.

I do realize it's staged but I have some friends that are diehard wrestling fans that have gotten to interact with several WWE stars on a semi regular basis and Benoit was always one guy they all spoke pretty highly of in their times they've crossed paths with him as opposed to quite a few others who were absolute tools. Even though most of us don't personally know any celebs, I'd bet good money all of us see a few of them as truly good people even though they don't actually know them. No matter how anyone spins this, this was something I don't think anyone could see coming.

I understand your point. I guess I just wouldn't make a comment about someone unless I really KNEW them. For instance, I grew up with Mike Glavine, (Tom's younger brother), and I knew Tom very well since he was always around...we used to all play wiffleball together. I liked him at first. After years of him having success in MLB, he became an asshole. Lots of people have no clue who he is, and to this day, people think he's a great guy cause he goes about his business very quietly and is about to hit 300 wins. He's not.

No matter how anyone spins this, this was something I don't think anyone could see coming.

I agree 100% there.

How do we even know they are really dead? Given the history of wrestling to pull off acts, could this be just a huge elaborate joke that has gone horribly wrong.

That would be horrificly vile and disgusting if that were true (and I don't believe it is), and the WWE should be immediately dissolved as a company.

Who would joke about a 7 year-old child being murdered by his father

I absolutely agree with you, but how is it it was posted several hours before it actually happened? Just trying to think outside the box.
