I am not a wrestling fan but this is early news and just coming out and qill be quite a news story with more infomration coming out on it.
LOoks like the guy killed his family then killed himself yesterday.

There are a lot of things like RIP etc around but can you really say that to someone who just killed his son and daughter (if true)?

Differences is that was done on the show as such and this was him not turning to work and wwe finding out but tbh a bit evil and not nice they decided to use the exclusive news they had and put it out there as early as they have done, but egg you have made a point becuase they have done this a lot of people have been wary about it which is probably why some media have not rolled with the story yet still getting the information

He obviously had demons and issues, I hear his relationship with his wife was very rocky to begin with, so no doubt this was a ticking time bomb, who knows what set it off. Its very sad.

Everyone else seemed to love him and he was a great wrestler, so R.I.P him and his family.

A rumour I heard was he was due perform at a Pay-per-view event when his wife called to tell him she had just suffocated their sone with a bag. He lost it, went home and strangled his wife with a power cord and then wrote a letter explaining and then hung himself.

Very sad either even if its not true.

It says on the wwe site though that he failed to show up Saturday when he was supposed to be on and did not make contact till the Sunday when he sent some strange texts and come the monday the police found it all.

Suppose the truth will out soon enough

WWE knew some dodgy sh*t happened and still showed the Tribute so I doubt WWe will do anything other than spin.

reports are that he did his finishing move the crippling cross face to kill his kid, now that is just wrong. Corriners could not work out how the kid was strangled and could not explain bruising and it was not consistent with normal strangulation but then they saw how he does it and it matches, just sick :/
