WWE Wrestler and Family Found Dead

Chris Benoit WWE Wrestler and Family Found Dead in Atlanta Home

This is really, really weird (and sad).

WWE wrestler Chris Benoit, his wife Nancy and their son Daniel were all found dead in their Atlanta home today. Details are sketchy, but apparently Benoit had been scheduled to appear on a WWE show on Saturday. He called to first say he would be taking a later flight, and then to say he would not be attending the show at all, due to a family illness. According to one source, Benoit said both his wife and son were throwing up blood and he needed to stay to take care of them.

The WWE recently faked the death of Vince McMahon, but all details about that storyline have been pulled from their website. It seems this most recent death is no joke.

Authorities in Atlanta are currently investigating, and we’ll keep you posted.

Update: It looks like this is a double-homicide and suicide. Police are not searching for any suspects outside of the house. Very, very sad.
