from wikipedia

On June 25, 2007, WWE.com reported that Benoit and his family were found dead in their home and that police were investigating the situation. It is yet to be confirmed by any outside agencies whether this story is, in fact, reality or kayfabe.

so it could just be some bullshit storyline

which is super messed up

apparently people are speculating that he had a family emergecy last night..and had to go home

they're saying that it could have been a murder suicide..or something like that

extreemly messed up if real...and even more messed up if its just a new storyline

leonp1981 · « **Reply #9 on:** June 25, 2007, 03:31:39 PM »

Well he was supposed to wrestle CM Punk for the title last night, but they said he couldn't appear due to personal reasons. I don't know whether he was supposed to win that match, cos they put Johnny Nitro in his place and gave him the win.

Has there been anything on the news yet? It's a bit suspicious if the only place its been mentioned is on WWE.com.

They've had a lot of real deaths, too.

Who else's death was faked recently?

SS · « **Reply #19 on:** June 25, 2007, 03:46:08 PM »

I just talked to my buddy superstarbillygraham ,and he confirms it's real.

I just wonder (if it IS true) is they'll give him his due, or a 30 second blurb like they did for Sherri, and march forward with the "dead Vince" angle?
