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?

I hope not, cos the guy deserves his own testimonial show.  He's one of the top ten wrestlers of all time and will be sorely missed.

I don't think they are that dumb, Sherri was retired and out of the spotlight, Benoit was a current performer and on TV constantly.

This sucks, the guy was extremely intense and I liked watching his matches.

they dedicated a whole show to eddy and owen and I would say chris had a bigger impact than both of them so they better

If they do the right thig & give Benoit a tribute, I'd like to see them abandon this McMahon angle.  Worst.  Storyline.  Ever.

Can almost bet that some lame-ass, grandstanding bitch in Congress is going to want an investigation into the WWE real damn soon.  Where's Jesse the Body when you need him?

ya know, the people were screaming when he didn't give up the angle when Sherri passed, and I didn't really care, it's a storyline, let it work itself out no matter how lame. But with the (assumed murder) of one of the shows top stars, it may be best to drop the angle.

Could drug abuse and alcoholism have anything to do with it?

Being on the sauce throughout the entire year, traveling over 200 days a year, performing twice a week, lifting weights, constantly eating out, drinking, drug abuse, depression from being away from your loved ones.

Can't tell me that's healthy..

If that was the case you think he would have snapped twenty years ago, he's been in this business forever, all over the world.

haha, The whole "fake death" thing is ultra class.  McMahon is total piece of trash.  If he did die, I'd actually smile...hahah  Fucking trash.

I just assume

it would be a bizarre coincidence for both him and his family members to all die at the same time don't you think?

True.. At the start he was pure genius with the WWF.. There was absolutely NOTHING like the the WWF.. Last three years or so wrestling has gotten old, with the lame old storylines being recycled over and over.

The popularity of wrestling in America, just shows how dumb the majority our population actually is.  Same thing with talk shows like Sally, Geraldo, Montel, etc.  Usually, the biggest fan base in wresting is...you guessed it, white trash.

the fanbase went beyond white trash in the late 90's

So far they are only mentioning him and his wife.  It might be murder or suicide.  The fact that he missed last nights PPV for personal reasons rings some alarm bells.
