well, maybe his brain chemistry couldn't handle it and other people's can? who knows...all I know is it is such a waste of lives.
Well he's a bastard and shouldn't be celebrated for what he has done *if* the repost is true of him strangling his wife and smothering his 7 yr old.

"ATLANTA (AP) -- Pro wrestler Chris Benoit strangled his wife and smothered his son before hanging himself in his weight room, a law enforcement official close to the investigation told The Associated Press Tuesday.
The official spoke on the condition of anonymity.
Authorities also said they are investigating whether steroids may have been a factor in the deaths of Benoit, his wife and their 7-year-old son who were found dead in an apparent murder-suicide.
Fayette County District Attorney Scott Ballard said test results may not be back for weeks or even months.
Autopsies were scheduled Tuesday by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation in DeKalb County.
Investigators believe Benoit (pronounced ben-WAH) killed his wife, 43-year-old Nancy, and son Daniel during the weekend and then himself Monday. The bodies were found Monday afternoon in three separate rooms of the house, off a gravel road about two miles from the Whitewater Country Club.
Fayette County Coroner C.J. Mowell did not return calls seeking comment. The answering service for his funeral home said he was out of town.
Authorities also declined to say whether drugs or steroids were found inside the house. "We're not releasing any information as far as what was located inside the house," sheriff's Sgt. Keith Whiteside said Tuesday.
Asked about the condition of the interior of the house, Whiteside said investigators found "nothing really out of the ordinary." He said Benoit was found in the home's weight room, his wife in an office and the son in an upstairs bedroom.
Whiteside said toxicology tests could take up to a week or longer to complete.
Neighbors said the Benoits led a low-key lifestyle.
"They were nice," said Lorre Jones, who lives across the street. Her daughter Alaina said: "We would see Chris walking in his yard from time to time. He wasn't rude, but he wasn't really outwardly warm."
Jimmy Baswell, who was Benoit's driver for more than five years, placed a white wreath at the Benoits' gate Tuesday.
"I saw him with his family all the time," said Baswell. "They always seemed like they were the happiest people."
World Wrestling Entertainment said on its Web site that it asked authorities to check on Benoit and his family after being alerted by friends who received "several curious text messages sent by Benoit early Sunday morning."
The WWE, based in Stamford, Conn., said it had been asked by authorities not to release further information on the deaths.
Benoit, born in Montreal, was a former world heavyweight champion, Intercontinental champion and held several tag-team titles. His names in the ring included "The Canadian Crippler."
"WWE extends its sincerest thoughts and prayers to the Benoit family's relatives and loved ones in this time of tragedy," the company said in a statement on its Web site.
Benoit had maintained a home in metro Atlanta from the time he wrestled for the defunct World Championship Wrestling. The Fayette County Tax Assessors Office lists the value of the house, situated on more than 8.5 acres, at nearly $900,000.
The WWE canceled its live Monday Night RAW card in Corpus Christi, Texas, and USA Network aired a three-hour tribute to Benoit in place of the scheduled wrestling telecast.
Benoit's wife managed several wrestlers and went by the stage name "Woman." They met when her then-husband drew up a script that had them involved in a relationship as part of a story line on World Championship Wrestling, the newspaper said.
Benoit has two other children from a prior relationship.
Benoit became a standout at an early age among wrestling prospects who trained in the dungeon basement of the house where fellow Canadians and professional wrestlers Owen and Bret Hart trained. Owen Hart was killed during a wrestling event in 1999.
"He was like a family member to me, and everyone in my family is taking it real hard," said Bret Hart, a five-time champion with the World Wrestling Federation. The federation has since changed its name to World Wrestling Entertainment."

I know it is one of those unanswerable questions, but why don't people like that just off themselves and leave their loved ones alone and alive?

What a friken coward and tool. Ignore my original post on the first page. I went from what a sad situation to I hope the guy goes to hell. The only ones I have pity for are his family. Sad.

There more than likely is never going to be the anwsers anyone wants. How someone who was a seemingly level headed guy decided one day, hmm, maybe I will just go end the life of my child and his mother. Now if the reports on the situation are false then forgive us all for doubnting u. If theirs not, then say hello to devil for me. Because the only thing your life deeds will have earend you is first class ticket to the basment.

I think he was in a depressive state before this, I honestly think it wasn't "roid rage," there was something there that kept building up in this man to make him do this (none of which is excusable, he's still a bastard). Roid rage usually doesn't last that long, like doing before thinking, which lasts moments, this guy went into two different rooms and killed his family, which showed it could have been premeditated. Roid rage doesn't do that, that rage is set off by something. This was something deeper and it's ashame b/c they are signs to prevent this
Not really. There's a BIG difference between "normal" people like you and me and these "professional" wrestlers. The fact is they are so jacked up on drugs of all kinds that they cannot be considered normal in the least. The list of wrestlers that have died before the age of 50 is HUGE, yet nobody seems to care and all the fans keep supporting it. I mean look at McMahon himself - he was found with a ton of roids, enough to feed an army basically, and rather than be honest and say he was distributing them to his wrestlers he claimed they were all his. Come on now.Akaveli said:
