Benoit Documentary -- Part 1 "A Fight to the Death"

(Part 1 of 7)
On February 6, 2008, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's "the fifth estate" broadcast a one-hour documentary on the Chris Benoit double murder/suicide and the issue of the health and safety of pro wrestlers. The piece, entitled "A Fight to the Death," was reported and narrated by CBC's Bob McKeown, and author Irvin Muchnick was among those interviewed. Muchnick's book CHRIS & NANCY: The True Story of the Benoit Murder-Suicide and Pro Wrestling's Cocktail of Death, will be published in Fall 2009.

You can't really include Owen and Andre since Andre's death was due to his incredible size and Owen's death was an accident
