Yeah, I got mine not too long ago for less than 20 on Ebay. They are not hard to find at all.
Will watch the Doc, and the matches, although Id rather watch the NJPW matches with OG commentary. Have those all on DVDs so Im straight. Not to beat a dead horse, but there is no problem separating the performer from the man for me.

I still watch the matches on mine. Matches are matches in my eyes. And his matches were damn good. I totally agree. Would I wear an "In Loving Memory of Chris Benoit" T-Shirt? Of course not. But I'll always watch a good wrestling match, regardless of who is in it. And besides, where else am I going to hear Dusty Rhodes screaming about a lady in the man's john? ;D

I bought mine when it first came out and haven't watched it since it was found out he was the one who committed the murders.
The whole thing just ruined him for me. I can't watch a Benoit match without thinking of him killing his young son, and it's just too depressing to sit through. The matches were fantastic, but they're no longer entertaining to me because of the situation.

Isn't this Benoit DVD in a 4 DVD set with the Best of Charles Manson, The Story of John Wayne Gacy, and the Best of Family Killers DVD VOl.1?
Never would I own a dvd or watch his matches again after knowing how he killed his wife and especially how he killed his son. The guy is in hell where he beongs.

I haven't watched it since before the murders. Its a great DVD, but I will never watch anything with Benoit in again or til at least I feel comfortable in doing so. Its a shame Backlash 2004 is one of my favorite PPVs of all-time, but I can't watch the whole thing and I usually have to cut it off after Foley/Orton

I sold mine on eBay like a year ago.. had very little to do with the murders, and more due to the fact that I hadn't watched it in well over a year before the killings anyway; think I included it in a set with a couple of TNA ppvs and some other WWE dvd that I didn't see myself watching again either.

I remember buying this at Wal-Mart when they were trying to get rid of their WWE DVDs about 3 years ago and got it for $5. I just looked at the prices at Amazon and am shocked at how much higher they went up! The DVD alone is worth it for his classic matches and that's all I need. Never watched the documentary, but with what happened, I don't I ever will.

I ordered this off eBay last week because I sold mine shortly after he died thinking I didn't want to see another Benoit match or watch the documentary, but enough time has passed and after looking at the match listing again recently, I decided to buy it....

I think that Gacy DVD has some of his XPW matches on.

As much as I love the WM 20 match, I can not watch the celebration afterwards nor can I watch a match where Woman is in his corner.
Just brings up bad memories.

I've actually tried to watch a Benoit Malenko match Woman in Benoit's corner. was hoping the awesome wrestling would distract me from her presence. it didnt and i had to stop just too unsettling. thankfully only the mania match is problematic on the dvd.

i honestly cant think of anything else they really could have touched on, good wrestler but not really documentary worthy as he didnt do much of importance to the business apart from his final tragic days, the documentary disc should have been replaced with more matches It's also been a long time since I have seen it but, they really should have focused more on his jump to WWE from WCW while champ and the hardship with Kevin Sullivan that caused it. I'm an ardent Benoit defender but you can hardly blame Sullivan for making his life hell when he went off with his wife.
