In this thread you can Bash Benoit and his actions all you want. As long as it follows these guidelines: - The Forum rules still apply.Topics still fall under the same rules as every other we have here. Keep all comments forum appropriate, show respect for other posters. Do not be a mini mod. The green and Pink names will handle it if it gets too heated. Just tell us
- If you want to talk about his achievements and his workrate and such go to this thread: officialfan.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=WWE&action=display&thread=212094
- This is only for Anti chat ONLY. The other thread is for the other side of the coin
We are doing this just so that people who have opinions on both sides can talk about it without getting in arguments. This thread and the other one are the only ones that any 'Benoit' chat will be allowed. This is ZERO TOLERANCE. Much like last year's election thread, mods will be monitoring these two threads around the clock. Given the explosive nature of this topic, we felt it was the only way to assure this go off without a hitch. If you feel you can't handle a discussion on either side of the debate regarding Chris Benoit, you are always welcome to leave the two threads be and go on about your usual posting.

His promo skills as a face were terrible
The Toothless agression and 4 real gimmicks were unbelievably stupid. It's a dying shame we never got a heel/Prove me wrong WWE champion

As much as the man was a great worker, his promo skills were abysmal.
The man couldn't cut a promo to save his life (no unintentional pun intended).

I was never a huge fan of his to begin with, but it makes me sick to watch any of his matches now, knowing what a sadistic monster he became.

I don't care about what he accomplished in the ring anymore. What he did erased everything.

Besides what he did, he was honestly the most boring guy I've ever heard on the mic.

I don't care about what he accomplished in the ring anymore. What he did erased everything. I am the same. I cannot watch his matches or anything without thinking of Woman, Daniel and the end. If he had only committed suicide, it would be different (Kurt Cobain syndrome I guess) but, involving his wife and child ... I just can't. I understand that you cannot just ignore his accomplishments, the history he was apart of, but, I cannot in good conscientiousness watch or support something he is apart of knowing what happened. When talking the history of WWE, specifically toward the end of the MNWs and most of 04, you have to mention him and what he did or you do a disservice to WWE, WCW and fans. WWE is doing the right thing, IMO, by not marketing DVDs, shows and other things with him on it though as no matter what they do, they will catch crap. However not mentioning him causes them to catch much less and as a publicly traded company (not to forget one marketed to kids) that is best. I don't 100% buy into, the whole "he was insane/didn't know what he was doing/had brain damage" stuff either. I mean I know he had brain damage but, he knew right from wrong, he could travel from town to town, state to state and preform with no issues and could lie his way out of several shows the weekend of the murders. He's just scum. I know I am ranting but, it feels good to get it off my chest, even if it's tamer than I would other places.

The only time I ever remotely liked Benoit was during his World Heavyweight title reign on RAW. This was since the underdog role was played rather well by him. Other than that, he was the most boring, and overrated wrestler to ever walk through the ropes.

I for one thought he had a few good moments but was really never into him. And I'd be happy if wrestling never, ever makes mention of him again. You hurt a woman or a child and you're an evil scumbag.
