Man, Benoit telling RVD that most wrestlers don't know when to leave.......It's sad. Because he was clearly talking about himself. (And possibly even Eddy Guerrero.)

Rob seems like a good dude, someone you’d have a great conversation with and has tons of good stories.

But you need to remember every diving headbutt, concussion, the stuff he was on to understand that people are human beings, they have a life with its challenges and sometimes people fall farther than they ever could imagine, he had a life before 2007, so did Nancy, so does David who survived that and has to live with that today, I think he knows

Chris was very respected before his death. That must have been a really neat moment for him considering the previous story from 1992. It puts into perspective just how long some of these guys knew about each other or spent that amount of time being in a locker room together.

The sad irony of this is. If Chris Benoit "knew when to get out" and retired from wrestling he would probably still be alive today along with his wife and child. It was the head injuries and the over working that made him go crazy

We dont know what would've happened. The wrestling business may have been the only thing keeping him going as it was all he knew. Chris never had any other job.

Hard to say. He had been wrestling since 1985 so the damage had been done. He worked that damaging style the entire time. Hard to imagine when he could’ve left and it making the difference. The difference in this acknowledgement is around this time he learned about the CTE issues and realized how much damage he’d gone through. Even if he’d left ten years before this he still spent ten or so years taking tons of damage to himself.

so their last conversation got a lil heated so it seemed. I read Rob's main reason for leaving WWE was due to his ex wife Sonya gettin colon cancer only he doesn't disclose that on this interview.

What’s funny about this story is realizing that Benoit and RVD both left WCW in May 1993. So he lectured him for leaving as he was doing the same thing. But I guess Benoit went back to Japan lol. But funny to think about him thinking someone was so stupid for doing the same thing he was doing at the same time.
