    Probably because none of those wrestlers were on the main roster at the time.

    But here's the thing. Mike Awesome had it. Curt Henning had one. And those are just to name a few who've had the ten bell salute and they obviously weren't part of the roster. But hey, that's how I feel. *shrugs*

    Awesome didn't have it, but they mentioned him greatly on ECW that week. That makes sense.

    Sherri was huge during the 80-90's swing. Without her, she wouldn't of managed people like Shawn Michaels...one of the reasons why his "Heartbreak Kid" thing worked.

    What-the-fucking hell?!!!!!!

    Holy shit, what the hell happened??????

    R.I.P. Benoit, one of the greatest Wrestlers of all time. And R.I.P. Family of Benoit.

    This is such a tragedy. You'd never think anything like this could happen. Just goes to show anything can happen at any time...

    I'm sorry Andrea. I feel helpless right now because you lost one of your childhood heroes and I don't know how to respond to it.

    Please know that I'm here if you need anything.

    Derek, it's not like I knew him personally, but I get what you mean. Thanks. This truly does suck.

    I didn't say that. By childhood hero I meant one of your favorite wrestlers and one you grew up watching.

    It's like me finding out an actor/musician i followed since I was young was discovered dead in his home.

    WTF?! The whole family?! I am in utter shock. I wish it were an angle... Good lord, what the hell... I read he left Vengeance last night on a personal matter... I wonder what that was about. This is horrible.

    RIP Chris Beniot. :(

    I think it's time to call off the Vince death angle.

    I'm still in complete shock by this news.

    I heard that his family was sick and coughing up blood. Anyone else hear this? My source that I got it from is most likely not reliable but you never know.

    And yes, call off that damn Vince death angle FFS.

    Sick and coughing up blood?

    Now I really do suspect it was something in the house. Perhaps severe mold or carbon dioxide which I was sort of leaning towards although that doesn't result in bloody coughing. I know ingesting mold in the air can do that though.

    It's just a rumor. Throwing up blood rather coughing. My mistake:

    Quoted that from a wrestling thread elsewhere.

    I've heard it was carbon monoxide poisoning. As far as I can tell, they've dropped the McMahon angle. All mention of it on WWE.com has been removed.

    The real bitch about this whole situation is:

    1) Benoit's friend, Biff Wellington, died last night.
    2) Eddie Guerrero died at a major TV taping before he was supposed to win the World Heavyweight Championship. Benoit died the day after(?) a major PPV where he was supposed to win the ECW World Heavyweight Championship.

    R.I.P.

    Okay not to sound like a mental patient but this has me extremly scared if it's a virus that's caused this. As foolish as it might sound, films like Dawn Of The Dead were always the ones that creeped the hell out of me because man made viruses can escape and fuck us up.

    Yeah I know it sounds chilish, but whatever. If it is a virus, it's managed to kill 3 people.

    I do not believe the virus idea. I still believe it is carbon monoxide. The more I think about it, it can most definitely make a person throw up blood as it kills your oxygen and burns your throat.

    I thought it was murder when I first heard about this. Don't know what the motive would be if that is the case.

    Well no one can rule out murder just yet. I don't see a motive either but until there's an official statement we wont know.
