A few readers have pointed out that in the Hall of Fame portion of the WrestleMania DVD (which was released this past Tuesday), Ric Flair's mention of Chris Benoit during his speech was edited out. Flair started running down the names of the 1998 version of the Four Horsemen, and the Benoit mention was replaced by Flair's mention of Steve "Mongo" McMichael. When you hear the speech, it comes off as if Flair said McMichael's name twice, when he really didn't.

Who is Chris Benoit? I've never heard of such a person.

Wow, removing videos and references to him is one thing but editing his name out of someone's HOF speech is rediculous and even slightly childish.

Yeah, I find it a little ridiculous that they totally alienate him from every single thing. Like he never existed. He was still a great wrestler, regardless of the acts he committed outside of the ring.

More curious as to wether the Benoit vs. Orton match will still be in the SummerSlam Anthology this year.
- Triple S

I do wish WWE stop over the top about Chris Benoit. Chris Benoit may killed family for reason, or so. But I am STILL pay the respect to Chris Benoit. No matter what! Growth up, WWE!

Honestly, I don't blame them for always trying to edit him out. I wouldn't want to be associated with a scumbag who murdered his family....

I like how Jericho explained his view on it on Opie and Anthony back in November, he feels like Chris Benoit up until that day in June, was one of his closest friends in the business, and looked at it like the whole editing the world trade center out of things. Sure it ended badly, but that shouldn't totally nullify the good times. Plus then what you have is like the elephant in the room, no one wants to mention it, but you know it's there. What Chris Benoit did was reprehensible, no one can deny that (and that is an understatement),noneof us know why he did it, but there was a time when he played a great part in a lot of peoples lives, including Ric's.

Because I somewhere in that statement said that I approve of Benoit? I'd like to see where I said that I support him.

Sometimes you wonder what's going through the head of Vince.
