Tags: chris benoit, dead, wrestler, trivia, death, murder, suicide
Christopher Michael Benoit was a Canadian professional wrestler who performed in Extreme Championship Wrestling, World Championship Wrestling, and World Wrestling Entertainment. Here's what I know about him; what do you know?
| | Member of the Fayetteville Sheriff's Department: "Mr, Benoit had sometime, possibly Friday, murdered his wife by asphyxiation. Sometime shortly after that, the same for his son Daniel and sometime later ... committed suicide by hanging himself in the basement area." |
| | Nancy was bound at the wrists and feet, with a towel wrapped around her body, and blood was found underneath her head. A Bible was also reportedly found near each one of the bodies. |
| | Benoit was found hanging in a weight room in his house. Cops say that he used a cord from one of his workout machines as a makeshift noose. |
| | He sent a series of text messages to WWE co-workers, some from his dead wife's cell phone. All five text messages were sent between 3:53 AM and 3:58 AM on June 24. He then committed suicide. |
| | The messages revealed that Benoit distributed information on where to find his remains, and the enclosed location of his attack dogs. |
| | His nicknames include: The Crippler, The Canadian Crippler, and The Rabid Wolverine. |
| | Won the WWE U.S. Championship in 25.5 seconds, the shortest match held for that title that resulted in the championship changing owners. Also holds the record for quickest title defense: 22.5 seconds. |
| | Chris Benoit and Kurt Angle were the first WWE Tag Team Champions on WWE SmackDown! |
| | Met his best friend, Eddie Guerrero, in a match in Japan, when he utilized an Enziguri kick, and knocked him out cold, thus starting a friendship lasting over 10 years. |
| | Was the first person to end a WrestleMania main event match by defeating his oponent using a submission move. |
| | He has held every major title in WWE except the WWE and European Championships. |
