and and if you noticed at the end of the match....he pointed 2 fingers in the air and he was lookin up at the ceiling........Eddie and Benoit??? No, just Eddie. Why would anyone pay tribute to murdering scum ? Because unlike us fans who didn't actually know Benoit, and find it very to easy to view him as murdering scum, these guys lived with him and had him as a friend. They considered him family. That's why. If your best friend did what Benoit did, I doubt you'd hate the man. Well..that's what Chris is to most WWE wrestlers. |

It was a BIG SPLASH (in Rey's case, Not-so-Big Splash) from the top rope. as far as I'm concerned, case closed.  |

No, just Eddie. Why would anyone pay tribute to murdering scum ? because to them he is still not a murdering scum. don't you get all the wrestlers who were part of the radical click like rey,konan,dean,jericho, & saturan still don't believe he totally done it & they were all close to him.also cm punk did on the ecw after the monday night raw tribute show to benoit..so get it threw your head people close to benoit still don't feel that way. there is alot of wrestlers saying that Kevin Sullivan did it.... |

So what that he's known for it? It's still not his.. noone has their own wrestling move. he made it famous for what it is today Dynamite Kid did it too... And I'd prefer to remember it as a Dynamite Kid move rather than a Benoit move... and this is coming from a pretty big Benoit fan... |

But it was Dynamite's move... Yeah Benoit used it but it doesn't change the fact that it was Dynamite's move...

if anybody saw the very beggining of this nights raw......they showed highlights of the rey/chavo match.....at the end they show him doing the 619, and then it just shows the 123 count and not the splash or headbutt whatever.....

It wasn't a head butt, it was a splash.

I think some people are blowing things a little bit out of proportion. Im sick of hearing people bash Benoit. The man was good to his fans and friends. Worked his ass off, but had some problems like everyone does. No murder isnt alright. Of course not. But we dont condemn a lion to hell for killing an antelope. The world if full of both greatness and beauty and on the flipside hurt and ugliness. Its whether you choose to dwell on the hurt and ugliness or to just lived a charmed life where nothing wrong should ever happen that makes you ugly yourself. You gotta accept both occur. Unfortunately he went out in a very stupid and tragic way but if someone were to pay tribute to him in the slightest way and can see past the horror then obviously Benoit meant a lot to that person. So if Mysterio was intending to pay tribute or if he just did his splash/butt in a similar formation its not anyones call to scrutinize or condemn him for it. Its his personal choice to remember that person anyway he wants. Im thinking Rey would rather focus on the positive

Do people not reliaze it is NOT Benoit's move? "OMGZ HE HIT TEH HEADBUT" big deal. It's not just Benoit's move. Just like the "Frog Splash" isn't Eddie's move because people have used it for awhile know. one the frog splash is eddie moves because his tag partner invented . eddie took it as his own after his partner had died . so really the only people who should being doing the frog splash should be rvd & chavo . know one else should be doing it. also the diving headbut has been used by people before benoit like harley race & dynamite kid. since dynamite kid is chris Benoit's icon or the man benoit looked up too . the diving headbut is dynamite kid move . also rey mysterio was doing the springboard diving headbut in the end of WCW as his finisher It sounds like you watched the Eddie DVD...  |

He positioned himself like Benoit would and didn't really jump, just flopped off the rope. |
