Pro wrestler, family found dead in Fayetteville home

A well-known professional wrestler and his family were found dead inside their house in Fayette County Monday afternoon.
Authorities confirmed that Chris Benoit, his wife Nancy and their 7-year-old son, Daniel, were found dead at the home on Quarters and Redwine roads in Fayetteville about 4 p.m.
Officials were investigating the deaths as a murder-suicide.
Benoit, a 40-year-old Canadian native maintained a home in metro Atlanta from the time he wrestled for the now-defunct World Championship Wrestling.
Most recently, Benoit fought as part of the World Wrestling Entertainment organization. WWE canceled its live show in Corpus Christi Monday night, and its broadcast of "Raw" on the USA Network was a three-hour retrospective on Benoit's career.
"Obviously, all sorts of speculation are running rampant but I have talked to so many people and nobody really knows [whether the couple was having marital troubles]," said Bryan Alvarez, who runs Figurefour Weekly, a wrestling newsletter and Web site, from Linwood, Washington.
Benoit was scheduled to appear in a pay-per-view le match Sunday night, but was a no-show due to a "family emergency," the WWE said during the broadcast.
Benoit's wife, Nancy, managed several wrestlers and went by the stage name, "Woman."
They met when her then-husband drew up a script that had them involved in a relationship as part of an ongoing storyline on World Championship Wrestling.
Soon after, the two became romantically involved in real life and married, Alvarez said.
Benoit has two other children from a prior relationship.
Wow...this sucks...RIP
what the ????
he died.....never liked him as a character but he was the ....
I think he was due to be here tomorrow night on the card
Man the only wrestler i knew that was going to die at a young age was yokozuna but maybe more should be looked into at the psyches of these guys, they seem to always have dark baggage noone knows about....murder suicide? Say it ain't so....
Pretty sad. For Vince to go out there and drop the kayfabe, that's huge.
They're showing Royal Rumble footage in its entirety. The only editting is they blur out the WWF logos on the ring, turnbuckles, and cameras, and shirts.
Erics also
They just said on the news here that it was being investigated as homicides.
I really wonder what happened, and what could lead to killing a child.
It's so tragic, particularly for his other children.
Damn.
Oh, now they are saying it was a murder/suicide; specifically that they think Benoit shot/stabbed his child and wife and then himself.
That makes me really, really sad. Not that anything in this is good or right, but I'd sort of hoped he was a victim and not the instigator. That's just terrible.
OMG, how could you do that to your own kid?
well if the reports are true and he killed his wife and kid, him for that

Damn. If this is true . . . well, the article goes on to talk about how he was supposed to be in Houston last night and pulled out . . . his wife and child were already dead.WWE wrestler Chris Benoit, his wife, and son were found dead Monday and police said they were investigating the deaths as a murder-suicide.
Detective Bo Turner told television station WAGA that the case was being treated as a murder-suicide, but said that couldn't be confirmed until evidence was examined by a crime lab.
The station said that investigators believe the 40-year-old Benoit killed his wife, Nancy, and 7-year-old son, Daniel, over the weekend, then himself on Monday. A neighbor called police, and the bodies were found in three rooms.
Damn.
wow, I was all over the WWF and WCW back in the day
this sucks, not for him, but his wife and child, and the 2 that now go back home to nothing
the only logical explanation is he must have been on some "the world is a ed up place and i need to get my family out of here" ......
And they were paying tribute to him on RAW? I wonder what they are thinking now that they know he killed his family and himself.
i wonder if he found out his wife was bangin another wrestler, what else would make him do that
