I agree with Brian.. Vince can not continue the McMahon death angle now. It was bad enough with Sherri but this is 1,000 times worse, all respect to Sherri. It just sucks that the final stages of Benoit's carreer were him dwindling in the mid card. When he should have been doing so much more. not so true. he WAS scheduled to become new ECW champ, thus being the ECW Main Eventer. and even if he was a mid-carder, at least he wasnt jobbing. he stayed a true winner Oh I know. Which is what makes it even more tragic. To think he was probably going to win the ECW title last night. And even as a mid carder he still entertained night in and night out, and delivered great matches.

Benoit called in to WWE Sunday and said he would be unable to make it back as his family was ill and they were spitting up blood
So...could have been suicide for all we know. 'Cause he called in Sunday, not today...I just don't know right now.

UPDATE: As of last word, the plan being discussed was to have the announcers introduce the show and go to best-of clips of Chris Benoit matches as a tribute to him. It didn't look as if wrestlers were going to be asked to provide any tribute comments at this early stage as most were too broken up to even consider wrestling or expressing memories for the camera.

I still believe he committed suicide at the sight of his Wife and Son dead That's what I'd guess, and if that's the case, Benoit's final moments on this Earth must of been so...tragic, is an understatement.

WWE cancels show at American Bank Center From staff reports Monday, June 25, 2007
CORPUS CHRISTI — World Wrestling Entertainment canceled Monday night's live show from the American Bank Center after wrestler Chris Benoit and his family were found dead in their home.
According to the WWE web site "There are no further details at this time, other than the Benoit family residence is currently being investigated by local authorities."
Benoit, originally from Edmonton, had a home in the Atlanta area, where he had wrestled in the now-defunct World Championship Wrestling before joining the WWE.
The whole Raw show will be a tribute show.

They just aired the promo for a memorial service, and it was for Vince...but it showed Benoit in the promo. God this is so sad.
