Fans of wrestling was shocked by the death of wrestler Chris Benoit(pronounced as Kris Benwah).
News of his death
Details of SMS.
WWE Tribute to Benoit.
He is one of my most admired and respected wrestlers after the Undertaker.
The moment Benoit does his finisher move, the Crippler Crossface its gameover for the opponent. You could see the agony and pain in the opponent.
I lived in the time where my childhood was watching then WWF. Seeing legends like Undertaker, Jake the Snake Robert, Macho Man, Hulk Hogan, Mick Foley ... entertain me. Mind you i was only in primary school.
There was only 2 wrestler which are my idols, Undertaker and Chris Benoit.
Undertaker for his undead endurance. You can never tire him and he will never die. He just never lose. I like his finisher move "The Last Ride", whereby he holds the throat of his opponent, lift him and slams him to the ground. Undertaker was repackaged many times. Earliest with Paul Bearer where they make his entrance scene spooky with Paul Bearer with the URN. I guess he was the 1 who introduce casket fight. The other image was like being a biker, riding his harley down to the ring damn cool. He got a tattoo "Sara" on his neck wonder if its his wife?
Chris Benoit a very technical wrestler but never use underhand methods unlike the American Olympic gold medalist Kurt Angle who uses underhand methods to win. Benoit finisher move "Crippler Crossface". To execute this move, you need to make your opponent fall to the ground the cross over your feet over his arm and do a tight lock across his face. The success rate of a submission is 95%. Most of them big matches, Benoit lose is because some idiot intefere when he do a crossface or some ass knocks out the referee.
Condolences to his family and R.I.P.
