Christopher Michael Benoit (IPA: [bə'nwɑ]) (May 21, 1967 June 24, 2007)
was a Canadian-American professional wrestler who performed in Extreme
Championship Wrestling, World Championship Wrestling, and World Wrestling
Entertainment. He was regarded as one of the best technical wrestlers in his
time.[2][3][4]
On June 25, 2007, Benoit, his wife Nancy, and their 7-year-old son Daniel
were found dead in their Fayetteville, Georgia home. Subsequent
investigations have confirmed that Chris Benoit murdered his wife and son
and then hanged himself.[5]
Early career
Benoit idolized the Dynamite Kid growing up, and styled himself after
him.[6] This prompted him to be a wrestler, so when he began wrestling, he
wrestled as "Dynamite" Chris Benoit, as a tribute to the Kid. He also began
using the Diving Headbutt and the Snap Suplex, some of the Kid's trademark
moves.
It is believed Stu Hart was not the first one who knew about Chris Benoit,
but rather Bruce Hart who brought him to the Hart house. After years of
strenuous training in the legendary Hart family "Dungeon", Chris Benoit
began his career in 1985 in Stu Hart's Stampede Wrestling promotion. His
debut match was a tag team match on November 22, 1985 in Calgary, Alberta,
where he teamed with "The Remarkable" Rick Patterson against Butch Moffat
and Mike Hammer. During his tenure in Stampede, he won several International
Tag Team and British Commonwealth titles,[7] and had a lengthy feud with
Johnny Smith that lasted for over a year. In 1989, Stampede closed its doors
later that year, and with a recommendation from Bad News Allen, Benoit
departed for New Japan Pro Wrestling.
Upon arriving in New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW), Benoit spent about a year
training in their "New Japan Dojo" with the younger wrestlers to improve his
abilities before debuting, wearing a mask and assuming the name The Pegasus
Kid. While with NJPW, he came into his own as a performer in matches with
luminaries like Jushin Liger, Shinjiro Ohtani, The Black Tiger, and El
Samurai.
In 1990, he won his first major championship, the IWGP Junior Heavyweight
Championship, from Jushin Liger. He eventually lost the title (and his mask)
back to Liger,[7] forcing him to reinvent himself as Wild Pegasus. He went
on to win the Super J Cup Tournament in 1994, defeating Black Tiger, Gedo,
and Great Sasuke in the finals, solidifying his status as one of the
foremost junior heavyweights in the world.
Benoit eventually left New Japan to compete in Mexico and Germany, where he
won a few regional championships including the WWF Light Heavyweight
Championship.
World Championship Wrestling (19921993)
Chris Benoit first came to WCW in June 1992, teaming up with fellow Canadian
wrestler Bif Wellington for the NWA World Tag Team title tournament; they
were defeated by Brian Pillman and Jushin Liger in the first round. He
wouldn't return to WCW, until January 1993 at the Clash of the Champions,
defeating Brad Armstrong. A month later at SuperBrawl III, he took 2 Cold
Scorpio to the limit, but got pinned with only 3 seconds left in the
20-minute time limit. At the same time, he formed a tag team with Bobby
Eaton. After he and Eaton lost to Scorpio and Marcus Bagwell at Slamboree,
Benoit headed back to Japan.
Extreme Championship Wrestling (1994)
In 1994, Benoit signed with Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW). While
there, he dropped the "Pegasus" gimmick, becoming "The Canadian Crippler",
because of his rougher style, and an incident where he took out Rocco Rock
with a powerbomb through a table. Coincidentally, after taking up this
gimmick, Benoit was involved in a match with Sabu during which Sabu broke
his neck.[8] The injury came when Benoit threw Sabu with the intention that
he take a face-first "pancake" bump, but Sabu attempted to turn mid-air and
take a backdrop bump instead. He did not achieve full rotation and landed
almost directly on his neck.
Benoit and Dean Malenko won the ECW Tag Team Championship from Sabu and The
Tazmaniac in February 1995.[7] After winning, they were initiated into the
Triple Threat stable, led by ECW World Heavyweight Champion, Shane Douglas.
The team lost the titles to The Public Enemy that April at ECW's Three Way
Dance.[7]
World Championship Wrestling (19952000)
New Japan Pro Wrestling and World Championship Wrestling (WCW) had a working
relationship, and because of their "talent exchange" program Benoit signed
with WCW in late 1995/early 1996. He started out in WCW as a member of the
cruiserweight division, having lengthy matches against many of his former
rivals in Japan.
After impressing higher-ups, he became a member of the reformed Four
Horsemen in 1995, alongside Ric Flair, Arn Anderson, and Brian Pillman. When
Pillman abruptly left the company for the WWF, Benoit was placed into his
ongoing feud with (booker) Kevin Sullivan. Sullivan booked a feud in which
Benoit was having an affair with Sullivan's (real life) wife Nancy (also
known as Woman). Benoit and Nancy were forced to spend time together to make
the affair look real, (hold hands in public, share hotel rooms, etc.) As
fate would have it, this on-screen relationship developed into a real-life
affair off-screen. Because of this, Sullivan and Benoit had a contentious
backstage relationship at best and Benoit defeated Sullivan in a Retirement
match. Benoit does, however, admit having a certain amount of respect for
Sullivan, saying on the DVD Hard Knocks: The Chris Benoit Story that
Sullivan never took undue liberties in the ring during their feud, even
though he blamed Benoit for breaking up his marriage.
In 1998, Benoit had a long feud with Booker T. They fought over the WCW
World Television Championship until Booker lost the title to Fit Finlay.[7]
Booker won a "Best-of-Seven" series which was held between the two to
determine a Number One Contender. Benoit went up 3 to 1 before Booker caught
up, forcing the 7th and final match on Monday Nitro. During the match, Bret
Hart interjected himself, interfering on behalf of Benoit in an attempt to
get him to join the New World Order. Benoit refused to win that way and told
the referee what happened, getting himself disqualified. Booker refused that
victory, instead opting for an eighth match at the 1998 Great American Bash
to see who would go on to fight Finlay later that night. Booker won the
final match and went on to beat Finlay for the title.[7] This feud
significantly elevated both men's careers as singles competitors, and both
remained at the top of the midcard afterwards.
In 1999, Benoit teamed with Dean Malenko once again and defeated Curt Hennig
and Barry Windham to win the WCW World Tag Team Championship[7]. This led to
another reformation of the Four Horsemen with the tag team champions,
Anderson, and Steve "Mongo" McMichael. After a falling out with the latter
two, Benoit and Malenko left the Horsemen. Later in 1999, he also won the
WCW United States Championship[7] before bringing together Malenko, Perry
Saturn, and Shane Douglas to form "The Revolution". The Revolution (both
kayfabe and legit) were a group of younger wrestlers who felt slighted by
WCW management, believing they never gave them the chance to be stars,
pushing older, more established wrestlers instead. Benoit's most notable
match of 1999 occurred with Bret Hart on WCW Nitro on October 1999, in
Kansas City, Missouri, as a tribute to Owen Hart, who had recently died due
to an equipment malfunction.
By January 2000, they made their last try at keeping him, putting the WCW
World Heavyweight Championship on him at Souled Out.[7] However, due to
disagreements with management and to protest the promotion of Kevin Sullivan
to head booker, Benoit left the company the next day alongside his friends
Eddie Guerrero, Dean Malenko, and Perry Saturn, forfeiting his title in the
process.
World Wrestling Federation / Entertainment
20002001
Along with Guerrero, Saturn, and Malenko, Benoit debuted in the WWF as a
stable that became known as The Radicalz. After losing their "tryout
matches" upon entry, The Radicalz aligned themselves with WWF Champion
Triple H and became a heel faction. Benoit would quickly win his first title
in the WWF just over a month later at WrestleMania 2000, pinning Chris
Jericho in a triple threat match to win Kurt Angle's Intercontinental
Championship. Benoit then entered into a long-running feud with Jericho, who
made fun of Benoit's demeanor by referring to him constantly as "Mr. Roboto"
due to his cold personality. Benoit and Jericho would meet on PPV four times
in nine months, exchanging the title back and forth and culminating in
Jericho defeating Benoit in a ladder match at the 2001 Royal Rumble. Benoit
would win the Intercontinental Title three times between April 2000 and
January 2001.
It was also in this time period that Benoit wrestled in his first WWF pay
per view main events, challenging The Rock for the title in July 2000 and as
part of a fatal four way title match in September. Both times, Benoit
appeared to have won the WWF Championship, only to have the decision
reversed by then-WWF commissioner Mick Foley due to cheating on Benoit's
part.
In early 2001, Benoit broke away from The Radicalz (who had recently
reformed three months earlier) and turned babyface, feuding first with his
former stable-mates and then with Kurt Angle, whom he wrestled at
WrestleMania X-Seven. The feud continued after Benoit stole Angle's
cherished Olympic Gold Medal. This culminated in a match at Judgment Day
2001 where Angle won a Two out of three falls match with the help of Edge
and Christian. In response, Benoit teamed up with his former rival Jericho
to defeat Edge and Christian in that night's Tag Team Turmoil match.
The next night on WWF Raw in San Jose, California, Jericho and Benoit
challenged WWF Tag Team Champions Stone Cold Steve Austin and Triple H for
their titles. Jericho and Benoit ended their reign and used the win as a
springboard to challenge Austin for his world title. Benoit would get two
title matches the following week, first losing via Montreal Screwjob in
Calgary and Austin just barely squeezing out a win in Benoit's hometown of
Edmonton. Unfortunately, also in that time period came a four-way TLC match
where Benoit suffered a neck injury that would require surgery with Dr.
Lloyd Youngblood. Despite this, he worked through until the King of the
Ring, where he was pinned in a triple threat match versus Austin and
Jericho. Benoit would miss the next year due to his neck injury.
20022003
During the first WWE Draft, he was picked by Vince McMahon third to be part
of the new SmackDown! roster,[9] although still on the injured list.
However, when he returned, he did so as a member of the RAW roster. On his
first night back, he turned heel again and aligned himself with Eddie
Guerrero, and he would feud with Steve Austin briefly.[10] He and Eddie
Guerrero were then moved to SmackDown during a storyline "open season" on
wrestler contracts,[11] with Benoit taking his newly won Intercontinental
championship with him.[12] Rob Van Dam defeated Benoit at SummerSlam 2002
and returned the title to RAW.[13]
After returning to SmackDown! in October, he was crowned the first winner of
the WWE Tag Team Championship, alongside foe and partner Kurt Angle.[14]
They both turned face again by betraying Los Guerreros. The two made an
impressive combination, but could not stand each other.[15]
Angle won his third WWE Championship from The Big Show at Armageddon
2002,[16] and Benoit faced him for the title at the 2003 Royal Rumble.
Although Benoit lost the match, he received a standing ovation for his
efforts after a very outstanding match.[17] Benoit returned to the tag team
ranks, teaming with the returning Rhyno.[18] At WrestleMania XIX, the WWE
Tag Team Champions, Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin, put their belts on
the line against Benoit and his partner Rhyno and Los Guerreros in a triple
threat tag team match. Team Angle retained when Shelton Benjamin pinned
Chavo Guerrero.[19]
Benoit feuded with John Cena and the Full Blooded Italians,[20][21] teaming
with Rhyno occasionally.[22] In June 2003, the WWE United States
Championship was reactivated, and Benoit participated in the tournament for
the belt, first beating Rhyno,[23] then Matt Hardy in the second round,[24]
but losing the final to Eddie Guerrero at Vengeance 2003.[25] The two feuded
over the title for the next month,[26] and Benoit's popularity ascended to
an all-time high. He defeated the likes of A-Train,[27] The Big Show, and
Brock Lesnar by submission.[28] General Manager Paul Heyman began a vendetta
against Benoit along with Lesnar, preventing him from gaining a shot at
Lesnar's WWE Title.[29] When Benoit won a qualifying match for the 2004
Royal Rumble against the Full Blooded Italians in a Gauntlet Match, Heyman
named him as the number one entry, but Benoit swore victory.[30]
20042005
On January 25, 2004 Benoit won the 2004 Royal Rumble by last eliminating Big
Show, and thus earned a WWE Championship title shot at WrestleMania XX.[31]
As a result of the long-standing Royal Rumble tradition that the winner
receives a shot at the world champion at WrestleMania, being on the
SmackDown! brand at the time, Benoit would challenge for the WWE
Championship. Benoit, however, exploited a "loophole" in the rules and
challenged World Heavyweight Champion Triple H.[32] This "loophole" clause
has become standard storyline practice, with the Royal Rumble winner being
free to choose which title he will challenge for. With this win, Benoit
became one of only two men to enter at #1 and win the Royal Rumble (the
other being Shawn Michaels at the Royal Rumble 1995). Though the match was
originally intended to be a one-on-one match, Shawn Michaels, whose Last Man
Standing match against Triple H at the Royal Rumble for the World
Heavyweight Championship ended in a draw,[31] thought that he deserved to be
in the main event. When it was time for Benoit to sign the contract putting
himself in the main event, Michaels superkicked him and signed his name on
the contract,[31] which eventually resulted in a Triple Threat Match between
Michaels, Benoit, and the champion, Triple H.[33]
On March 14, 2004, at WrestleMania XX, Chris Benoit won the World
Heavyweight Championship by forcing Triple H to tap out to his signature
submission move, the Crippler Crossface.[34] It marked the first time the
main event of a WrestleMania ended in submission. (It happened again at
WrestleMania 22 and WrestleMania 23).[35][36] After the match, an emotional
Benoit celebrated his win with the then-reigning WWE Champion and best
friend Eddie Guerrero. Four years after they came to WWE together, they
stood in the ring at Madison Square Garden, both of them world champions. It
is considered as the biggest win of Benoit's 19 year career, as he won his
second official World Championship in the main event of the biggest show of
the year. The match was voted the 2004 PWI Match of the Year). This was
Benoit's first World Heavyweight Title reign. The rematch was held at
Backlash 2004 in Benoit's hometown of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. This match
was a Triple Threat match, which also involved Triple H and Shawn Michaels.
It was Michaels who ended up submitting to Benoit's Sharpshooter, allowing
Benoit to retain his title,[37] once again proving he was worthy of the main
event. The next night in Calgary, he and Edge won the World Tag Team titles
from Batista and Ric Flair, making Benoit a double champion.[38]
On RAW, Benoit defeated Triple H in a one-hour Iron man match. Benoit scored
the first fall with a pinning predicament out of a Crossface attempt. Triple
H then rallied to take a 3-1 fall advantage by a Pedigree pinfall,
spinebuster pinfall, and a count out decision. After Benoit evened the falls
up 3-3 via Sharpshooter and Crippler Crossface submissions, he got the final
pin in the match's closing seconds (due to outside interference of Eugene)
to retain the title.
On August 15, 2004, Chris Benoit was defeated by Randy Orton for the World
Heavyweight Championship at SummerSlam.[39] This title change is notable
because it is rare for a top face World Champion to ever drop the title
cleanly to a heel. His reign lasted 5 months, and he gained 7 straight
pay-per-view victories. Benoit then feuded with Edge, leading to Taboo
Tuesday where Chris Benoit, Edge, and Shawn Michaels were all put into a
poll to see who would face Triple H for the World Heavyweight title that
night.[40] Michaels received the most votes and as a result, Edge and Benoit
were forced to team up to face the then tag team champions, La Rιsistance,
in the same night. However, Edge deserted Benoit during the match and Benoit
was forced to take on both members of La Resistance by himself. He still
managed to win the World Tag Team titles.[41] At Survivor Series 2004,
Benoit sided with Randy Orton's team while Edge teamed with Triple H's team,
and while Edge was able to pin Benoit after a Pedigree, Orton's team
won.[42] The Benoit-Edge feud ended at New Years Revolution.[43] The feud
stopped abruptly, as Edge feuded with Shawn Michaels, and Benoit entered the
Royal Rumble.[44] The two then continued to have matches in the following
weeks until the two of them, Chris Jericho, Shelton Benjamin, Kane, and
Christian were placed in the Money in the Bank ladder match at WrestleMania
21. Edge won the match by knocking Benoit off of and smashing his arm with
the ladder.[45] The feud finally culminated in a Last Man Standing Match at
Backlash 2005. Edge won with a brick shot to the back of Benoit's head.[46]
On June 9, 2005, Benoit returned to SmackDown! after being the first man
selected by the SmackDown! side in the 2005 Draft Lottery, and participated
in an ECW-style revolution against the SmackDown! heels.[47] Benoit appeared
at One Night Stand 2005, defeating Eddie Guerrero. At the end of the night
he delivered a flying headbutt to his former WCW boss and former RAW General
Manager Eric Bischoff.[48]
On July 24 at The Great American Bash 2005, Benoit failed to win the WWE
United States Championship from Orlando Jordan,[49] but he faced him in a
rematch at SummerSlam 2005. Benoit defeated Jordan in 25 seconds with the
Crippler Crossface to win the title.[50] On the next two editions of
SmackDown!, Benoit defeated Jordan by submission in 23.4 seconds[51] and
22.5 seconds.[52] Two weeks later, Benoit defeated Jordan by submission in
49.8 seconds.[53] Benoit then started wrestling Booker T in some friendly
competitions,[54] but it was all a ploy, as Booker and his wife, Sharmell,
cheated Benoit out of the US title on an episode of SmackDown!.[55]
Chris Benoit appeared on RAW on November 14, 2005 for Guerrero's tribute
show hosted by both RAW and SmackDown! superstars. Benoit was devastated at
the loss of his best friend and was very emotional during a series of video
testimonials, where he said that he loved Eddie and will never forget him,
eventually breaking down on camera.[56] The same week on SmackDown! (taped
on the same night as RAW), Benoit defeated Triple H in a tribute match to
his fallen friend. Following the contest, Benoit, Helmsley, and Dean Malenko
all assembled in the ring and pointed to the sky in salute of Guerrero.[57]
20062007
After controversy surrounding a US title defense against Booker T, Theodore
Long set up a "Best of Seven" series between the two. Booker T won three
times in a row, due largely to his wife's interference, and Chris Benoit
faced elimination in the series.[58][59][60] Benoit won the fourth match to
stay alive,[61] but after the match, Booker suffered a legitimate groin
injury, and Randy Orton was chosen as a stand-in, but Benoit defeated Orton
twice by disqualification.[62][63] However, in the 7th and final match,
Orton defeated Benoit with the help of Booker T, Sharmell, and Orlando
Jordan, and Booker captured the US title.[64] Benoit feuded with Orton for a
short time,[65] only to compete against Booker for the US title. Benoit was
given one last chance at the US title at No Way Out 2006 and won it by
making Booker submit to the Crippler Crossface, ending the feud.[66] Soon
after, Benoit defeated Randy Orton in a No Holds Barred match on smackdown
via Crippler Crossface.
The next week on SmackDown!, Benoit (kayfabe) broke JBL's hand (JBL actually
needed surgery to remove a cyst).[67] A match was set up for the two at
WrestleMania 22 for Benoit's title, and for the next several weeks, they
would attack each other. When it came time for their match, JBL won the
match with an illegal cradle to win the title.[35] Benoit used his rematch
clause two weeks later in a steel cage match on SmackDown!, but JBL again
won with illegal tactics.[68]
Benoit entered the 2006 King Of The Ring tournament, only to be defeated by
Finlay in the opening round, after Finlay struck Benoit's neck with a chair
and delivered a Celtic Cross.[69] At Judgment Day 2006 Benoit gained some
revenge by defeating Finlay with the Crippler Crossface in a grudge
match.[70] On the following edition of SmackDown!, Mark Henry attacked
Benoit during a match, giving him back and rib injuries.[71] Benoit then
announced a sabbatical to heal nagging shoulder injuries. On October 8,
Benoit made his return at No Mercy, defeating William Regal by submission in
a surprise match.[72] Later that week, he won his fifth United States
Championship from Mr. Kennedy also by submission.[73]
Benoit then engaged in a feud with Chavo and Vickie Guerrero. He wanted
answers from the Guerreros for their rash behavior towards Rey Mysterio, but
was avoided by the two and was eventually assaulted.[74] Benoit retained his
United States Championship at Survivor Series 2006[75] and Armageddon
2006,[76] both times defeating Chavo Guerrero. The feud was ended after a
few matches, and other attacks, with no-disqualification rules in play,
which Benoit won the match to retain his United States title.[77]
After defeating Guerrero, Montel Vontavious Porter (MVP) claimed that he was
the best man to hold the US title, so he challenged Benoit for the title at
WrestleMania 23, where Benoit retained.[36] Their rivalry continued with
similar results again at Backlash.[78] At Judgment Day, however, MVP gained
the upperhand and the title in a two-out-of-three falls match.[79]
On the June 11 edition of RAW, Benoit was drafted from SmackDown! to ECW as
part of the 2007 WWE Draft, after losing a match to Bobby Lashley.[80]
Benoit won his ECW debut match teaming up with CM Punk and defeating Elijah
Burke and Marcus Cor Von by disqualfication.[81]
On June 19, 2007, Benoit wrestled his last match, defeating Elijah Burke in
a match to determine who would face CM Punk for the vacated ECW World
Championship at Vengeance.[82] Benoit missed the weekend house shows,
telling WWE officials that his wife and son were vomiting blood due to food
poisoning (see below). When he failed to show up for the pay-per-view,
viewers were informed that he was unable to compete due to a "family
emergency," and that he would be replaced in the title match by Johnny
Nitro. Nitro went on to win the match and become ECW Champion.[83]
