So last night, we watched the Monday night RAW broadcast (recorded) that was essentially a Chris Benoit retrospective. It was touching but now seems pretty macabre and very wrong.

Bear in mind, that at the time the show aired, WWE knew that Benoit and his family were dead but did not know the circumstances surrounding it. In those circumstances, what they did was definately "seems like a good idea at the time". However, as of last night/this morning, the full details of the horror that was took place in that home has come to light.

Chris Benoit murdered his wife Nancy ("Woman") on the Saturday using a piece of electrical wire and on the Sunday smothered his son with a plastic bag. He left a Bible with each of them. He then hung himself on the Monday in his weight room.

The WWE have removed all references to Benoits retrospective. For more information check out WWE.com and this Associated Press article.
