I guess this might be Benoit stuff. It gets going.
I was kinda thinking. Lets say 30 year later, some ones health is going down like Beniot and hes suffering for Dementia and stuff like that. He kills himself because he thinks he may end up doing something terrible, like Beniot.
Like maybe in a note they find "These thoughts are terrible, I cant do something like this and I think this is the only way. I love my family and would hate to lose it like this. Im not going to end up lik Chris Beniot".
Do yall think he'd be remembered by the WWE fans and even kinda acknowledging him? I know that I prolly would, thats one of the biggest sacrifices you can give, and that was for his family.
I think I would kinda forgive him...

I guess he is asking what the deceased wrestler will be remembered for down the road (10, 15, 20 years after).

I can't see myself ever enjoying the WMXX main event as much as I did before. Granted, his matches will show up on WWE programming before the end but this point is still very, very far away. And I also think you will never find aforementioned main event on WWE 24/7. They will show tag matches or not so important bits of his but not his big moments.

Yeah, no offense but a little grammar goes a long way.
However, I've deciphered this and I believe he's asking that, hypothetically, say Benoit would have just killed himself without taking his family down. In the note, he says something along the lines of "I'm a sick man, and I'm doing this for my family's good, before I take them down with me." If he were to do that, would he be regarded a little more highly?
If it were possible for him to have it to do over again, and he did it that way the second time, I'd say yes, people would at least give him the benefit of the doubt over leaving his family alone. But that's not possible, so no, I don't think anyone would see him as a hero of any kind.

I rewatched Benoit's on-air tribute to Eddie Guerrero, during the Raw tribute show to Eddie, and something he said struck me, and made me come to a horrible realisation that he may have murdered his family "for their own good". He mentioned that he couldn't imagine what Vicky and her children would be going through. I think he intended to commit suicide all along (to be reunited with Eddie, perhaps), but having observed what Eddie's wife and children had to go through after losing him, Benoit felt he couldn't leave his own wife and child like that, therefore "took them with him".

Yes, I do think had he committed suicide and not murdered his family, he would be held in a higher regard. While it still would've shown that he was sick (mental health speaking) and would've highlighted virtually the same "insider" problems in the business, he would not be a murderer. There's a big difference between being suicidal and homicidal, no matter how thin the line.
Look at all the famous people who have committed suicide, Vincent Van Gogh, Kurt Cobain, etc. A lot of them are still held in very high regard in their professions (regardless of personal taste/what you think of someone) regardless of their mental state/drug abuse etc. They all had personal problems.
The difference between those people and Benoit is Benoit is also a murderer and thats why he's so vilified.

If Benoit had just taken his own life then WWE would NOT have erased him from their history.

Ya that's pretty damned creepy.

Why are suicide or killing your whole family the only options in this? See a doctor? A psychologist? No?
