I don’t watch wrestling, and I don’t really keep up with it, but I came across this story, and thought it warranted posting. WWE Wrestler Chris Benoit and his family were found dead in their home. There are no details around the cause of death, or the investigation into the deaths. Several news sources in addition to WWE are confirming the tragedy.

Geez, that’s sad, especially that it involved his whole family. It would have been sad regardless, but it’s always worse when there’s more than one person involved.

UPDATE: As of right now, investigators think this was a murder-suicide. That’s awful and tragic. The bodies were found in three different rooms in the house. Benoit is thought to have killed his wife and son on Sunday, then himself on Monday.

    I am not a wrestling fan either but isn’t this like the third wrestling personality to die/ be assisnated recently? What gives.

    A lot of people think it was carbon monoxide poisoning.

    That would make sense. I read somewhere where his wife and son have been throwing up blood? I don’t know how true that is, but poisoning would come to mind in such case.
