I didn't even know this! I'll have to pay closer attention when Spongebob comes on again.

Chris and Nancy "Woman" Benoit

WWE.com is reporting that former WWE and WCW champion Chris Benoit and his wife Nancy, former WCW and ECW performer "Woman", were found dead in their home this morning. No cause of death has been released at this time.
Chris Benoit had to miss a scheduled appearance at last night's WWE Pay Per View to return home for what the viewers were told was "personal reasons".

Edit: At the start of WWE Raw tonight, Vince Mcmahon said that their son, Daniel, was also found dead. Chris' two other children, from his previous marriage, we're not at the home at the time.

Up in heaven's wrestling ring, I can just see the main event tonight. Eddy Guerrero and Chris Benoit vs. Owen Hart and British Bulldog.

A sight that heaven will cheer for and the rest of us miss.

I truly, truly cannot believe this would happen to such a fine man as Benoit. That guy was/is a class act. The stuff he went through, then finally winning a world title...truly the best Canadian wrestler of all time.

When people would point out the silly stuff of WWE and ask me "Why do you watch wrestling?"

I would point to Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero and say "That's Why!"
