In the last few hours it has been announced that some 14 hours (approx 1am Monday morning) before authorities discovered the bodies of Chris, Nancy and their 7-year-old-son Daniel on Monday, someone altered Benoit's page on Wikipedia to say the wrestler missed a match two days earlier because of his wife's death.
The writer has claimed it was a coincidence and a guess here "I feel incredibly bad for all the attention this got because of the fact that what I said turned out to be the truth. Like I said it was just a major coincidence, and I will never vandalize anything on wikipedia or post wrongful information. I've learned from this experience. I just can't believe what I wrote was actually the case, I've remained stunned and saddened over it"
I personally think that its too much of a coincidence as the IP address has been tracked to a computer in Stamford, CT (the site of WWE headquarters) apparently (I say apparently as only one newspaper has said this)other WWE edits have been linked to the same IP address including confidential information about Chavo Guerrero.
Did someone know about the death before or was it all a huge coincidence, if someone knew that person could of possibly prevented Benoit's suicide, which leads to more conspiracy theories.
The WWE Chairman issued a "non-apology" on Tuesday for the three hour show dedicated to the life of Benoit. After finding out the facts they took down all tributes from the website.
After the autopsies this week official say they think Benoit killed his son in a choke hold, they have said there was no bruising around his neck so from a process of ellimination this is what they come up with, seems to me that they want to blame wrestling as much as they can, as I can personally think of other things where (as far as I know) there would be no bruising, for example using a pillow??
WWE have dismissed theories of "Roid Rage" as they thing the murders were too thought out, with them lasting the whole weekend and the bodies having bibles placed next to them the WWE have said that this is an indication steriods were not used.
My responce to the headline "WWE Wrestler Chris Benoit, Wife and Son Found Dead" was one of huge shock!
It's a little known fact to my friends but I am a huge WWE fan, me and my husband went to watch Raw just over a year ago, I mourned at the death of Eddie Guerrero, and yesterday another great was lost.
On Saturday Chris Benoit was due to participate in Smackdown in Texas, but he did now show, he said he could not make the show because of personal reasons. Dissapointed fans were assured by WWE that Benoit would be at Sunday nights "Vengance" a pay-per-view event, but yet again Benoit was a no show. This time when WWE officials got in touch with the star he said that his wife and son had food poisoning and were throwing up, and on Monday after recieving contact through several text messages that stated his home address in Fayetteville, about 20 miles south of Atlanta and recieving one message from Benoit's phone that said: "The dogs are in the enclosed pool area. Garage side door is open," police were alerted. When deputies arrived at Benoit's house at about 2:30 p.m. yesterday, they found the bodies of Benoit, his wife Nancy, and his son Daniel.
The case is currently being investigated as a double murder and suicide case, police have said Benoit killed his wife and son sometime at the weekend and then killed himself yesterday.
The Washington Post has reported "Benoit strangled his wife, suffocated his 7-year-old son and placed a Bible next to their bodies before hanging himself with a weight-machine pulley, authorities said Tuesday. Authorities offered no motive for the killings, which were spread out over the weekend and discovered Monday. No suicide note was found."
However the police are investigating into whether Benoit went into a rage caused by prolonged steroid usage. Investigators found anabolic steroids in the house and want to know whether "The Rabid Wolverine" was unhinged by the bodybuilding drugs, which can cause paranoia, depression and explosive outbursts. Police are looking into this as the cause as Benoit was known for his "wholesome family-man image" a reason several thousand WWE fans are posting their views on websites.
Many people cannot believe that Benoit would do such a thing, and the consipicy theories have already started. Some people think that someone was in his home the whole weekend and made him send the messages before killing him and making it look like suicide, others have said they think its a drug deal gone wrong. Whatever happened only three people know for sure.
