That's a bit of a dumb question, no offence. Not really. It'll be funny to see how else WWE would continue to erase Benoit. I bet his son won't even be billed as a second generation star. Until he wins a title and Cole slips up |

Good to see the kid still watches wresting I was thinking the same thing. I figured it would be hard to even watch it, let alone go to an event. It's good to see he enjoys it though. He definitely looks like a Benoit. |

That's awesome. I remember Jericho saying in his second book that Benoit's oldest son loved wrestling and when he spoke with him after the murders he was really upset that he couldn't go to the wrestling shows anymore. He said his son was about 14 when they died, so I guess he's about 19 now.

I didn't even realize Benoit had another kid.

I remember reading in Jericho's second book that Benoit's oldest son was a wrestling fan and was unsure if he should still be a fan after the incident. Glad to see Jericho is still in touch with him and that he hasn't let the incident ruin the wrestling industry for him.

He was at the Fozzy show in Calgary last night. He was just hanging around near the speakers with his girlfriend. The resemblance was insane in person. I sure hope not. How irrelevant. |

If he were to become a Wrestler would he be allowed to use the Benoit name? He'd probably have the Pegasus Kid III gimmick (Prince Devitt was Pegasus Kid II) Definitely bears a striking resemblance to his dad, just a bit taller. Glad he's still enjoying his wrestling, I remember in Jericho's book he asked if he should like wrestling anymore. I think he's also got a sister from what I remember as well. |

Am I the only one who doesn't see that much of a resemblance? Hopefully looks are the only thing his dad passed down to him...

Probably not. Neither of Mike Rotunda's kids (Bray and Bo) are billed as his, and Camacho isn't even from the same country as Meng! Even when they were competing against each other, there's no mention of the Usos and Roman being related. |

Interesting to think if this guy were to be become a wrestler good enough for WWE would they take him? Not that he even is a wrestler I guess, and it may sound harsh, but given the resemblance and the fact they shy away from every Benoit reminder ever since that weekend. Then again WWE may feel partly (small part) at fault for how things went with Chris, and feel they have to accommodate his son.
