For those playing the home game, that was the rematch triple threat b/w HHH/HBK/Benoit in Benoit's hometown. The match was great. The crowd was fantastic. Everyone was putting on a great show. But... This one is akin to watching Hitler give speeches on film. You know there is talent there, but it is so creepy seeing this evil man working the room and inspiring...love from people. The worst thing about it is that his wife and child are in the front row! I had not watched this match before and I physically got ill for a moment when the camera first panned to Benoit's wife and boy during his entrance. Something tells me that match is not ever being released again. I just had to get that off my chest. This one is 100 times more disturbing than the WM XX match in retrospect for me. I was wondering what match of Benoit's is hardest for you to watch (assuming any of them are hard for you to watch)? If you can't watch a Benoit match or haven't gotten over it, then you need to seriously get over it...and especially with the direction television and society has gone in

There is nothing wrong with someone not wanting to watch matches of that thing. Maybe, just maybe, certain people need to get over the fact that not everyone sees things the same way and while some can watch Benoit matches with no problem, some of us choose not to.

I needed a good laugh. And you provided it by posting perhaps the dumbest thing I've ever seen on these forums. Thanks again.

Because I don't believe I've seen a single post by you where you're not being condescending, and telling someone they need to "get over it" because they have difficulty watching a child murderer wrestle is the right way to go if you are!

I can watch them. It is just disturbing to do so. Especially anytime the woman and /or child he murdered are featured prominently. Come down from the high horse and join the living.

An interesting comparison, I used a similar one explaining how the history channel isn't gorifying hitler when they do WWII shows,The same as how WWE would'nt be glorifying benoit by showing him on a dvd (Not saying he should get a 6 disc carrear highlight dvd). Other posters addressed this one, but I wanted to take a shot at it because I think it is a decent point. Hitler on the History Channel is okay, but have you seen Leni Riefenstahl films about Hitler and Nazi Germany? Those are creepy. They are well done. In fact most athletic filming and cinematography copy Riefenstahl. But it is still a celebration of a monster. That is similar to how I feel about the Benoit matches. Great performer. Historically significant. But at the time of his matches he was being celebrated. That is a bit tough to take now. I would support some sort of DVD set about Benoit that dealt with him the way the History Channel dealt with him.
