For those who don't know, WWE superstar Chris Benoit pulled a cowardly act by killing his family and then himself. While medical examiners put all the odds and ends together, we can only speculate. In the photo above we see a group photo of many incarnations through the years of WCW's "Four Horsemen". From left to right is Ric Flair, Benoit, Dean Malenko and Arn Anderson. All of which currently work for the WWE. Your thoughts and opinions on Professional Wrestling need no mention. Yes, it's scripted and fake however, the emotional and psychological after effects are very real. The WWE requires everyone be on a tight schedule. On the road for 340 days out of the year and being away from family during Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas can make you crazy. As CEO of WWE Entertaiment, This ought to be a wake up call to Vince McMahon. These guys take hits and break bones and there's always someone to help. What they don't do is offer one on one therapy for personal/emotional problems and that's a shame. Since Benoit joined the WWE, he's gone from a main eventer to a mid-card draw. When it comes to feeling "sorry" for Benoit, I sit on the fence post. His personal problems could have, and should have been dealt with. It was reported that Benoit overdosed on steroids and that was the reason behind his odd behavior. If taking a wife and kid with you in the midst of your sorrows is the only way out, I'll miss Benoit in the ring BUT, as a person I can't give him any respect. Another good story with another bad ending.
