EDIT: Just noting that I really hate wrestling, and I'm only lurking out of personal interest. If this happens to be true, I will be sad for his death. If it'* false, I find it pathetic that WWE would do something like this. So out of curiosity, I want to find out the truth.

So far the only site I see reporting on this is WWE, the same site that staged the whole Vince limo death thing.
the boy who cried wolf...nobody believes them now

Chris Benoit
Officials would not say how the family died, other than to say they weren't shot to death.
Benoit, 30, was a Canadian wrestler who most recently fought as part of the World Wrestling Entertainment.
The organization said on its Web site said that Monday night'* broadcast of "Raw" on the USA Network will "serve as a tribute to Chris Benoit and his family."

O.K. good enough for the time being. All I can think of now is maybe carbon monoxide poisoning or some type of poisoning that may have killed the entire family or murder suicide. Details will come out as time goes by

Isn't it terrible that there'* stuff like this happening and WWE is still going along with the whole Vince McMahon hoax? Not that I watch wrestling anymore, though. It'* to much of a soap-opera, but I remember watching Chris Benoit on WCW when I was just a little kid.
