There were actually 5 members - as mentioned Booker and both members of Kronik (Crush and Wrath) along with Scott Steiner and Sting. They are in the database.
I would like to say I have the protos, but I would be lying, LOL.

Since I've started collecting WCW Toybiz MOC, I figured that I'd go ahead and start out with a bang ! I also snagged 2 Jake Roberts autos, so they're in the pics as well  Here are some pics :     I'm hoping to have some really rare sets coming in sometime this weekend, so keep checking back Thanks for looking and happy collecting ! |

Nice collection, I have that Kanyon & Piper MOC, along with a Jericho and Rick Steiner from a different series.
That Horseman set looks cool moc, that'd be cool displayed next to the Mattel Horseman set.

Nice! Dig everything but the Murderer. Thanks, but whereas I totally respect the body of work Benoit did as a wrestler, his personal life was tragic. I dont think he was in his right mind when he did what he did, but Im not the one to judge him for that. I personally respect him as a performer and its a shame that he is blackballed like he is, But from a pr standpoint I totally understand why. |

The two are inseparable. He murdered a child. Thats why I dont think he was mentally there anymore. The while "roid rage" is total bs. The mans brain was that of an 80+ year old with alzheimers and dementia, which I think just finally he lost all normal thinking. I feel bad for him and everyone that was involved, but he did what he did and thats always going to be what he's most known for... thats why I feel bad for him, because of what he did for the wrestling business will now always be over looked, but rightfully justified though. |

Doesn't excuse it. If it did you could make the argument for every sociopath.

We'll never truly know, but either way only he and God know the true answers, so for now I just enjoy the mans gift of wrestling that he left. Im not going to judge his actions or justify them whatsoever, but I am happy to celebrate his wrestling career. |

I can't understand how anybody can look at him and not be repulsed by the fact that he squeezed the life from his wife and child. How could anybody put his fake accomplishments above the real lives he took?

Errr Im definitely not glorifying it ... I just separate that person from the wrestlng character of Benoit.

There is no separation. Any argument for separation went out the window the moment the two people he eventually viciously murdered joined him in the ring to celebrate his title victory.
