Chris Jericho recently spoke with Konnan on the MLW podcast about his WWE return and more. Check out the highlights:
On how the change in the treatment of concussions has shaped his views on Chris Benoit: "I was like everybody else. Shocked. A sense of 'what the [expletive]' happened. Denial. Betrayal. How can he do this?... I look back at it now, and I was really close with him, but he got considerably stranger and stranger the last six months of his life. I was like, what's with this guy? What's wrong with him? And now I know the reason why. It's because his brain got worse and worse."
Thoughts?

All of the people denying that Benoit was having severe mental issues due to brain damage need to see this. Jericho knew him as well as anyone.

I don't see how it shocked him since they were close. I swear the first time I ever saw Benoit I knew he was mental. Its not good to judge a book by its cover but I mean seriously no one looked at this guy and said "Damn he looks like a psycho"?

I don't care how messed up his brain was. He knowingly lied about his whereabouts and his family's to cover his tracks in those days. Maybe he was messed up and didn't realize that he was killing them but he knew afterward to lie about it and then must have felt guilty enough to take his own life.
I have no sympathy for him at all. He can rot in hell.

He can rot in hell. What if he woke up and didnt realise he killed them? black outs are common with killers. Wakes up finds out crap what have i done, he cant live with himself and decides to end it? Theres loads of arguments for and against, but one thing is for sure...if your brain isnt ticking all the right boxes then its going to lead to trouble. People with alzeimers forget where they parked their car or how to start the engine once back in the vehicle...but yet they parked it and know how to drive. Its all too easy to say oh the guy was a nutter and this and that....i didnt see any of these signs prior to all these head injuries. Im sure all his friends will tell you the exact same thing. You cannot underestimate your mental well being, its makes us who we are. Not your kidneys...not your lungs...not your heart...its the brain that makes the decisions and if you have any sort of brain damage which was proven he did have then who am i or we to know any different? Serial killers its the same thing...why can you or me not kill someone? are you telling me we feel the same emotional attachment to someone that kills for fun? we couldn't imagine ourselves in a million years killing someone for pleasure so what is it thats make us different? being brought up to know right from wrong? many a killer has been brought up no different than you or me so how come they can kill someone for kicks and we cant? are you telling me our brains work in the same way as theirs? Na im not buying that. Ed Gein...digging up corpses and sleeping with them? me or you have the same genetic make up as someone like that does that? could you do that? its not his lungs or his heart or his looks that make him do that they only keep him alive and make him look like a human being ...its the brain that beats to a different drum.

The guy went insane and murdered his family...end of story. I'm not putting the blame on steroids or concussions or any of that. I blame Benoit and only him. I feel really bad for his surviving family.
