yeah dude. WWE is pulling all of Benoit's merchandise from their shopzone web site. This story is a really sad one that I've been reading about all day. I read in the investigation release that he killed his wife sometime on Friday with a power cord, suffocated his son on Saturday with a garbage bag, placed bibles beside each of their dead bodies and then he hung himself in his weight room later on Saturday.
some really sad news, altogether. Benoit was an amazing wrestler and I hope his demise wont overshadow his marvelous career.

MIAMI (Reuters) - Professional wrestling superstar Chris Benoit was found dead along with his wife and 7-year-old son in what police believe was a murder-suicide, authorities said on Tuesday.
Benoit and his wife and young son were discovered on Monday afternoon inside their home in Fayetteville, Georgia, an Atlanta suburb.
Investigators have not disclosed how the three died but said they were not seeking any suspects outside the home where Benoit apparently took his own life after killing his wife and son.
"We are investigating it as a murder-suicide," said Sgt. Keith Whiteside of the Fayette County Sheriff's Department.
He declined to elaborate but said the determination was based on "things that were located at the house," where the bodies were found in three separate rooms.
Autopsies were scheduled Tuesday morning, Keith said, adding that toxicology reports were not expected for a week.
"Information is very slim right now due to the investigation," said Whiteside. "We're waiting on the autopsy results to come back before we do anything else."
Benoit's employer, World Wrestling Entertainment, said in a statement on its Web site that he canceled two events in Texas over the weekend, citing an undisclosed family emergency.
Benoit then sent "several curious text messages" to friends early Sunday morning and this prompted authorities to check on Benoit and his family at their home, the statement said.
Nicknamed "The Rabid Wolverine" and "The Canadian Crippler," Benoit was one of the leading international stars of professional wrestling.
He began his career in his native Canada more than 20 years ago and wrestled in Japan before moving back to North America.
