Fascinating and I never knew this. Also, when it comes to promos, I get what Coach is saying, but I always thought Benoit was lowkey underrated as a talker, more so as a babyface than as a Heel. As a babyface, you could feel the sincerity and the passion in his words about pro wrestling and his sacrifices and it was truly resonant. Go and watch his promo that he cut on Maven backstage before Maven challenged HHH for the World Title on the Raw after Survivor Series. Amazing stuff. I miss him so much everyday, even though in my heart I know two beautiful lives were lost because of him. It makes me so angry and sad, but I can never deny what Benoit meant to me as a kid.

​@@echolalia682Exactly. And all of this is why I think Coach is 100% wrong with his notion that introverts can't make it, as well as his assessment of Benoit. Benoit was undeniably a main eventer whose quiet intensity--occasionally let free like those bursts mentioned--resonated because it was real and made perfect sense, unlike how many hundreds of cartoon characters Vincent Bloodmoney McMahon wasted everyone's time on for decades. Many, many wrestlers have insisted it wasn't the personality that held Benoit back--quite the opposite, as he was seen as a top guy and leader because nobody dedicated himself to wrestling as much, to the point of degrees of isolation in that dedication to craft. He was held back because dolts like that serial sexual assaulter wannabe dictator and plenty of old heads from the mid-century insisted "You must be this tall and this heavy to be the main event." We still see it with his latest Superm(Hog)an, Roman Reigns. It's why the Benoits, Eddie Guerrero, and how many others died tragically, chewed up and spit out.

Benoit also had some of the best entrance music..

Coach is a classy guy

I remember The Coach's Royal Rumble debut in 2005. Coachman first attacked Benoit, ran and clutched the corner of the ring. Chris would rip his shirt off and Coachman looked like Maven in the ring. 😅

Brock didn't do a lot of talking but spent most of his first 24 months in the company headlining everything he touched. And since coming back has continued to dominate as a main event talent. But Brock couldn't talk that well either, so they made sure he always had Paul Heyman. Benoit just needed a mouth piece. Cornette did a fantasy rebooking of the 2001 Invasion, and had Arn Anderson act as Benoit's mouth piece. I could easily see Chris enjoying Brock's same level of success if they had done that and had Arn do the talking while Benoit did the walking.

@ That's simply not true. Many Wrestlers are influenced by other wrestlers to step in the ring in the first place. On the other side....this tragic murder changed wrestling more than every other event in recent history. That was the birth of PG thinking, protection to the head and so on....

It such a scary irony, a guy like Benoit who took pro wrestling so seriously, who loved it so much and dedicated his whole life to it (even more than Bret Hart and that sounds impossible) almost killed the very same business and his name became taboo in that industry.

The coach was funny, animated, well spoken, could put on a match. What an asset to the company. What I remember most about him were those hilarious facial expressions lol. He really stands out when I look back on that era.

The WM20 triple threat is probably my favorite match of all time

So very well spoken coachman, use to hate you growing up but came to know the business and realised what a goat you actually are🔥 respect man!

Chris Benoit is the reason i started watching WWF, the very first match i saw when i was a kid when he face off Chris Jericho and Steve Austin on TV. I was like damn that guy with the wolf claws attire is so good, and i started watching til now, maybe short break between 2011 and 2012.

Eddie and Benoit were as big as anybody. I looked forward to their matches over the others.

Rest in peace Chris, Daniel, and Nancy.

Chris Benoit has always been one of my favs

He mentions Benoit's comeback at Madison Square Garden but if he means the 2002 return it was actually in Edmonton. He won the word title at Madison Square Garden though.

Most believeable in-ring (in no particular order): Bret Hart, Kurt Angle, Benoit, Dynamite Kid, Mr. Perfect, Macho Man, Jake The Snake, Eddie, Lesnar, & Jericho...That's in all facets: ability, moves, skillset, selling, delivery, fluidity

Loved Jonathan in WWE, real pro.

Note to self guys. Don't do drugs, always have a resting day for you to recover and enjoy life. Life is not just about work, no matter how passionate you are about the job. Mental health + drug is a deadly combination

It's probably really difficult to talk about Benoit if you had a personal relationship with him. On the one hand, you've got the awful thing he did. On the other hand, you've made many fond memories with him. It's must be so conflicting. Personally, as someone who had no such relationship with him, I like to separate the artist from the art. That way I can rightfully condemn what he did while still admiring his body of work.

I'm of the firm belief he wasn't himself at the end, the autopsy of his brain confirmed the man he was was long gone. Had he lived he would have been found guilty through insanity or diminished responsibility and committed or treated. So yes he was a good man once.

​@@johnny6610nobody had anything good to say about hitler and if they did it was because they were afraid of him. Absolutely zero relation between hitler and Benoit

Jonathan Coachman reminds me of Maven. They both have faces that automatically make you dislike them idk why lol

There is no comparison between Chris Benoit and Tom Marvolo (Lord Voldemort) Riddle. Firstly Voldemort is a villain who wants to change the wizarding world into a supremacist of pure blood families, Christ Benoit on the other hand didn’t have any motives of tarnishing the reputation of WWE, he didn’t go to the FBI and maliciously make up stories to destroy the reputation of the McMahon family in the wrestling world or wrestling in general. He was a man consumed by his demons, and unfortunately it manifested in a brutal and deadly way.

Hes a World champion. Mid-card would have def been disrespect.

It's understandable why the Coach was hesitant about talking about Chris Benoit. I think most of us can agree that Benoit was one of the greatest wrestlers of all time, but we also have to separate the wrestler from the person because of what happened on the last few days of his life.

Its more actually about you been you as an individual. Weather you can seperate art from artist. I know me and I wouldn't hold down to say Chris Benoit is one of my heros, one of my idols and the one who made me love wrestling and wanted to become one and to be like him. Because I always loved smaller guys in the ring and for me Chris was the finest wrestler like an actual wrestlers wrestler. He didnt need no mic skills or character he was just a damn great professional inside and outside of the ring. I hope he has peace now along side his family.

In many ways Chris was wrestling, and I think that's why it's so hard for people to separate the man in the ring on tv from the man he was in his own home. Look at the business now and look at it then. Pro wrestling died that day.

Chris is why I’m ok with the nfl “making the league soft”. What happened to him had happened so many so many times and it got swept under the rug. Vince McMahon in a way pioneered or at least accelerated the conversation of head trauma with the wellness policy and policy on concussions post Benoit.

I don’t condone nor I forgive, but Chris Benoit paved the way for wwes medical staff. Now they have traveling drs, trauma caretakers and sports physicians. Chris’ concussions and steroid induced psychosis twisted what we knew and loved.

Did he say match 9 and match 10? Damn how long is this show? Lol

If I had a time machine I would go back to late 2004 and start to watch Eddie like a hawk with medical expertise. Because maybe just maybe if Eddie did not die in 05 maybe those terrible events would not have occurred in 2007

This is why we don't have time travel lol because folks like you would go back and cause timeline crisis lol over wrestling

Are we allowed to talk about chris benoit? He was one of my fav fighters

Chris is one of those case's were i try and separate the person in 2 part's. He did this horrible act yet with the ct damage i think it unfair to say chris always had this in him cause ct changes you add the meds he was on with losing Eddie and I'm not sure how much of the men was left and how much was instincting

Benoit was set up 💯💯💯

The Coach was an under-utilized talent in WWE.

In Benoit’s case i really wished he had a wrestling name different from his government name so i could say that “i’m a fan of ‘insert the artistic name’ but definitely not a fan of Chris Benoit”

Pretty unrelated, but i always hated Paul Heyman's response to that Heckler on Inside the Ropes. What Benoit did was was awful, but the guy was Physically, mentally, and emotionally dead, and was just a walking husk. To say that he wanted to kill them, especially with what people said about his character outside of the ring, is just not right. To me, it just felt hypocritical of Heyman to be the judge, when he ruined so many other people's lives financially, and exposed Kimona's strip tease for a minimal amount of Profit

That’s why I never liked Paul Heyman. New jack didn’t even like him as he never paid the ECW roster properly and paid them late.

They chose Benoit to train him to get his ass beat
