I knew nothing of this until just a few hours ago. After 2 decades of being a wrestling fan, I went cold turkey a couple of years ago due to boredom with the product. I didn't see the poorly-timed "tribute" last night. This may sound morbid, but after going cold-turkey, I check the web every month or so just to see if anyone I grew up watching checked out. Way too many did.....but NEVER in this murderous way.
Your “cold turkey” approach sounds like the same thing I did about 2001. In the 80’s and late 90’s, though, I could tell you everything going on in wrestling. Now, I check Wrestlezone about once a week to read the highlights.
Sorry, didn’t mean that to come across as a criticism of the update (for which I am very greatful) I just was hoping he wasn’t involved in the murders.
I dropped out of watching wrestling about 4 year back after my child was born, but I enjoyed Benoit’s matches and he seemed decent in one brief meeting I had with him. I just cannot imagine anything worse for a father to do than this.
