Christopher Michael "Chris" Benoit (French pronunciation: [bəˈnwa]; May 21, 1967 – June 24, 2007) was a Canadian professional wrestler and murderer. During his 22-year career, Benoit worked for numerous major promotions including Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW), New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW), World Championship Wrestling (WCW), and the World Wrestling Federation/World Wrestling Entertainment (WWF/WWE). Benoit committed suicide after perpetrating the murder of his family.
In professional wrestling, Benoit was a two-time world champion, having been a one-time WCW World Heavyweight Champion, and a one-time World Heavyweight Champion in WWE; he was booked to win a third world championship at a WWE event on the night of his death. Benoit was the twelfth WWE Triple Crown Champion and sixth WCW Triple Crown Champion, and the second of five men in history to achieve both the WWE and WCW Triple Crown Championships. He was also the 2004 Royal Rumble winner, joining Shawn Michaels as the only men to win a Royal Rumble as the number one entrant.
Benoît (/bɛˈnɔɪ.ᵻt/ or /bᵻˈnɔɪt/; French pronunciation: [bənwa]) is a Catholic French male given name, or, less frequently, Benoist. The name is the Old French word for "blessed", equivalent to the English name Benedict. The female form of the name is Benoîte, or Bénédicte.as well as family name.
It is to be distinguished from Benoit (surname) which is usually without the accent.
Chris is a short form of various names including Christopher, Christian, Christina, Christine, and Christos. Unlike these names, however, it does not indicate the person's gender although it is much more common for males to have this name than it is for females.
It is the preferred form of the full name of such notable individuals as Chris Tucker and Chris Penn. To find an article about one of these people, see List of all pages beginning with "Chris".
The word is also part of phrases, including Tropical Storm Chris, Ruth's Chris Steak House, and many more which refer to notable people, places, and things. For a list of these, see All pages with titles containing chris.
World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. (d/b/a WWE) is an American publicly traded, privately controlled entertainment company that deals primarily in professional wrestling, with major revenue sources also coming from film, music, product licensing and direct product sales. WWE also refers to the professional wrestling promotion itself, founded by Jess McMahon and Toots Mondt in 1952 as Capitol Wrestling Corporation. As of 2014, it is the largest wrestling promotion in the world, holding over 300 events a year, and broadcasting to about 36 million viewers in more than 150 countries. The company's headquarters are located in Stamford, Connecticut, with offices in major cities across the world.
As in other professional wrestling promotions, WWE shows are not legitimate contests, but purely entertainment-based, featuring storyline-driven, scripted, and choreographed matches, though they often include moves that can put performers at risk of injury if not performed correctly. This was first publicly acknowledged by WWE's owner Vince McMahon in 1989 to avoid taxes from athletic commissions. Since the 1980s, WWE publicly branded their product as sports entertainment, which is considered to acknowledge the product's roots in competitive sport and dramatic theater.
A conspiracy theory is an explanatory or speculative hypothesis suggesting that two or more persons or an organization have conspired to cause or to cover up, through secret planning and deliberate action, an event or situation typically regarded as illegal or harmful. Since the mid-1960s, the phrase has denoted explanations that invoke conspiracies without warrant, often producing hypotheses that contradict the prevailing understanding of historical events or simple facts.
One common feature of conspiracy theories is that they evolve to incorporate evidence against them, so that they become unfalsifiable and, as Michael Barkun argues, "a matter of faith rather than proof." The term conspiracy theory has thus acquired a derogatory meaning, and is often used to dismiss or ridicule unpopular beliefs.
People formulate conspiracy theories to explain, for example, power relations in social groups and the perceived existence of evil forces. Conspiracy theories have chiefly psychological or socio-political origins. Proposed psychological origins include projection; the personal need to explain "a significant event [with] a significant cause;" and the product of various kinds and stages of thought disorder, such as paranoid disposition, ranging in severity to diagnosable mental illnesses. Some people prefer socio-political explanations over the insecurity of encountering random, unpredictable, or otherwise inexplicable events. Some philosophers have argued that belief in conspiracy theories can be rational.

Plot: SuperBrawl is usually one of WCW's biggest PPV's of the year. This year, SuperBrawl takes place at the legendary Cow Palace in San Francisco, California. Hollywood Hogan and the new World order are running rampant through World Championship Wrestling. However, this is a night WCW Superstars are fighting back against the renegade faction. The WCW Executive Board has named "Rowdy" Roddy Piper the number one contender for Hollywood Hogan's World Heavyweight Championship. Can Piper beat Hogan one more time, only this time for the most coveted title in professional wrestling? The Giant and Lex Luger battle the nWo's Outsiders for the WCW Tag Team Championship. The catch is that WCW President Eric Bischoff has refused to allow Luger to participate in the match due to him not having a medical release in time. Bischoff is forcing The Giant to take on both Outsiders by himself for the WCW Tag Team Championship. Can The Giant pull through for World Championship Wrestling and all of its fans? The other headline match on the card is a San Francisco Death Match between Kevin Sullivan and Chris Benoit. Not only will it be a Death Match, but Woman and Jacqueline will be strapped together at ringside bound by a leather strap. Don't miss WCW SuperBrawl VII!

Plot: Turner Sports President, Dr. Harvey Schiller recently removed Eric Bischoff as the President of WCW. A move that has swayed the balance of power back to WCW in the war with the nWo. In the midst of all of the chaos with Bischoff's ousting, a main event of epic proportions was named for the upcoming WCW Uncensored 1997 event. A three team battle royal elimination match. Three teams with three different agendas and goals. Team WCW consists of Lex Luger, The Giant, and The Steiner Brothers. If Team WCW wins, the nWo must return all of the WCW Championships they have and will be forced off of WCW Television for 18 months. Team Piper consists of "Rowdy" Roddy Piper and 4 Horsemen members: Jeff Jarrett, Steve "Mongo" McMichael, and Jeff Jarrett. If Team Piper wins, "Rowdy" Roddy Piper gets Hollywood Hogan in a cage match. Team nWo consists of Hollywood Hogan, Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, and Randy "Macho Man" Savage. If Team nWo wins, the nWo gets the right to challenge for any WCW Championship anytime they choose. While Bischoff's removal from power was a negative for the New World Order, they aren't letting that stop them by announcing that NBA Bad Boy, Dennis Rodman would appear at WCW Uncensored as the newest member of the nWo. The stakes are high, only one team can survive! Which will it be and what will "Rod the Bod" do?

Interview with the Wrestlemania 23 champion with Galaxy radio
Christopher Benoit talks about Eduardo Gory Guerrero Llanes. interview by Off the Record (Michael Landsberg, TSN) Eddie Guerrero is one of the greatest wrestlers of all time, he's one of the best in the ring and on the mic ever, had a lot of charisma and was extremely muscular, he deserves way more appreciation and credit, he's the total package.
Eduardo Guerrero Llanes talks about Christopher Benoit. interview for the Legends of Wrestling video game Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero are two of the best wrestlers in history and died way too young.
Christopher Benoit talks about people who start wrestling just because of money or their looks. interview by WrestleCast (Joel Ross and Simon Lilsboy) And it's not only the in-ring performance, a lot of the wrestlers really should work out more, look at Benoit, he wasn't just arguably the best technical wrestler ever but also extremely muscular and athletic and incredibly underrated on the mic, but still, wrestlers deserve respect regardless. And by the way, Linda Miles is one of the girls who won Tough Enough, maybe someone else should have won it instead, for example the incredibly athletic, tall and muscular Jake Sokoloff who could have been a huge star or Matthew Morgan who had to stop during the season due to an injury, WWE completely wasted him anyway.
John Hennigan talks about Christopher Benoit. interview by MOONSAULT.de (Kevin Scheuren) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efNTPJzUUuQ Chris Benoit was one of the absolute best and most respected wrestlers in the business and for good reasons and he's generally said to have been one of the nicest people in the world when he was alive, tons of wrestlers told stories on how Benoit would call them after they got released or had an injury or a surgery, way more than any person in wrestling would. Chris Benoit, when alive, was one of the most caring wrestlers ever, personal demons, concussions, a lot of his friends dying and other things we can only speculate about ruined him. Chris Benoit still is arguably the best technical wrestler of all time, a lof of the stuff he did in the ring are some of...
