 What's good Josh blue Ross back again with another video so in my previous video. I was reacting to WWE Changing or rewriting their own history and we we got to the subject of the crisp and wall situation how WWE is completely dissist themselves from Even acknowledging the wrestler at all in like any of their Previous videos or segments and or anything of that man of that matter They just completely pretend like he didn't exist or whatnot and we started having why started having Like I guess a conversation within that video And I you know, I wanted to see if you guys would be interested in it in a few got few you guys are definitely Comment on that video wanting me to talk about and give my just my overall opinion of the whole situation Should Chris Benoit be I guess Remembered for his career outside of his heinous acts that he Pinned it up doing towards the end of his life and first things first I want to just talk about my experiences in in relation to how I viewed Chris Benoit as a wrestler before All this went down. I will say this Watching him or what not I you could you could tell You know, he just had this presence of just someone that you knew could bring could offer something to WWE especially in the technical sense the dude was fantastic in the ring He made you believe the moves he was doing. He was sacrificing his body with those diving head But over and over and over they always look brutal They always look pretty painful and enjoyed the feuds he had I enjoyed the little feud he had with the rock, you know, they were going back and forth It was just it was one of those things where it was a treat to be able to watch him wrestle and him winning the World Heavyweight Championship Against Triple H and I believe HBK was in that match I believe it was a triple threat match him winning the World Heavyweight Championship alongside Eddie Guerrero winning the WWE Championship the same night. It was a beautiful moment That was a beautiful moment and it was cool to see, you know, the rabbit Wolverine He literally came off like a Wolverine man He was just just ready to rip anybody apart and you knew he had the skills to do it So I always appreciated his in ring work. I'm that is that is one thing I can you know, I'm going to state but We got to talk about obviously what happened First things first, you know losing Eddie Way Eddie ended up passing it hurt a lot of people, but it definitely hurted him I remember watching I believe they did the Dark Side of the Ring Little docu-series and they talked about the whole Crispin wall situation. I did watch that and When Eddie died Things really changed and you I've said this before you will be surprised how someone can impact someone's life So much that when they're gone They essentially They're not the same person no more and you can tell Eddie was his anchor Eddie was the thing that kept him I guess you can say Stable-minded, you know I'm saying like that anchor of someone that you really care about that can help you and guide You through whatever you're going through They're gone now you're you're kind of you just kind of in this limbo state and granny you can say well He has his wife. He has his kids like that should be his anchor and you could say that but at the same time is different when you know Your your closest friend is also in the profession that you're in he's a wrestler as well so you can connect with someone different than your own family because they may not get it they may not understand and It's it's one of those unfortunate things where once Eddie died a lot of people have said this It's like Crispin wall. He died a part of him died You can see in the video when they were doing the tribute to Eddie and how people were getting emotional, but you saw Specifically and I remember this How Crispin wall was so emotional, bro? I had never seen him like tear up like that I didn't think someone that is so vicious in the ring to have those type of emotions But he was boo-hoo crying that wasn't acting that was how he felt he couldn't even really get the words out and That's that's a tell-tale sign and he was really hurting or whatnot. So I Gotta put that out there because obviously I do think that played a part in his mental This is where the mental side of things come into play then You know just just the whole situation of after everything happened in The medical examiners doing their reports and then they're putting much saying, you know his CTE was very advanced and He you know was 40 years old but had the mind of an 88 year old You know I'm saying and for someone that's personally dealing with someone in my family my grandmother Grand she doesn't have CTE, but she you know, she has all the dimension So a lot of times her mind works differently now, you know She's talking to stuffed animals and stuff like that and you know She's doing things that doesn't make sense. We've had to pretty much like baby proof My grandmother's place cuz she'll turn on the stove And don't remember turning on the stove like a gas stove and you know that could be dangerous You know I'm saying, you know, so we've had to kind of Baby proof all these things cuz she's just doing things not realizing what she's doing not remembering what she's doing And it's one of those things where I can relate in a sense of when your mind goes Everything else kind of follows you may be able to pick up the pieces But everything else kind of follows and and that's what came with all those chair shots and all those diving headbutts And you know, it was there it was it was you know It eventually caught up to him, you know, and I don't think WWE really was aware What was going on because it was always part of the wrestling business taking a stiff chair shot It was kind of like a badge of honor But I don't think they realized or maybe they did know who knows and they just said now We're just gonna keep you know keep the show on the road cuz at the end of the day We're trying to make money and no one else is going off the rails like you know to that point So I was like, I think we're okay But honestly, um, I think what hurts Him being remembered in a positive light, especially in WWE is just the fact that he took two innocent people's lives that didn't really, you know deserve it unfortunately, you know his wife Nancy and His son Daniel, you know now he also he has you know, another son David, but Luckily David wasn't there, you know, I believe if I remember correctly in the documentary I think he was at a family's house family members house So he wasn't even there when everything went down, you know, and it's just one of those things where it's like It's it's it's like damn like how do you? Separate that how do you separate someone committing such a heinous crime and We're supposed to still be like well, he still was a fantastic wrestler, which we know But it's kind of hard to separate that you obviously I believe there's been reports that David wants his father to be Remembered in you know potentially in the Hall of Fame in WWE, but I can tell you this now WWE is all about money more than ethics or anything else WWE is about money and Investors would not be okay with that at all and just from an ethical standpoint I know he wants his father there I know he would want his father to be remembered for the positive But his last acts were so evil whether it was he was in his right mind or not It's one of those things where it's like they couldn't do that even if they wanted to and I don't think they should to be honest with you I don't think they should I don't think he should be remembered in the sense of his amazing career I know that may sound harsh, but we got to ask Your career and your legacy is tied to your personal life It is whether people want to admit it or not a lot of times It is and people are very selective on who they support and why they support them after they find out certain information For example, and this isn't extreme But I'm putting it in trying to put it into context for those who may not understand why I say what I say Say for example, we've seen it We see it all the time in the United States Someone has some mental breakdown and they go on a killing rampage and they go around Killing innocent people that have nothing to do with nothing They just feel like all right. I need to do this and they're mentally not there. We know they're not there They may have planned out everything, but we know there's something wrong. There's some screws loose and Are we supposed to be like well? He did all this charity work prior to he was a good person He helped out the community. He just went off the rails one day and said screw it I'm gonna kill a whole bunch of innocent people that has nothing to do with nothing. So we're supposed to Remember the good right? We're supposed to forget that other people's families are ruined because of his heinous and evil act Whether he kills himself or not and we've seen it countless times, especially in the United States This year alone of people who are not right up in the head Or maybe they do know what they're doing and they just decided to snap, you know So it's one of those things like do we remember the good that they do? Do we glorify the good that they do? I'm sure there's people that want to remember them for bad, but no What about the families that are affected? And that's why I say in the sense of Chris Benoit I you know, I appreciate what he's did in the ring, but honestly No, his his legacy will forever be tarnished and tainted as pretty much Someone that went off the deep end whether it was his own doing with you know in the sense of The type of punishment his brain was Was taking gotta make sure my video good The type of punishment his brain was taking with all the chair shots and in the head butts and stuff like that that You can you can argue that but despite all of that despite having a brain of the 88 year old You can't ignore the fact that two people lives were cut short because of it So the question to answer the question do I feel like Chris Benoit should be remembered in WWE I Know some people may disagree, but No, I don't Yes, of course the wrestling fans that got to watch them will know who he is and of all course You can find the matches of some of his best matches on it on the internet It's not even hard to find you can literally Google it But do I think it should be something that you know is pushed on? Television and social media. No, if you find his matches, you can find them granted I don't be honest with you ever since that incident I don't really just go back and watch Chris Benoit matches not because I don't think he's in a fantastic Wrestling just it changes everything once you know How his story ended and the way it ended it's just like damn that Changes everything. I don't know if I can look and appreciate it the same way. I did before all of this So and for me personally, I don't think he should you know be glorified in a sense like of you know Not glorified, but you know remembered in a sense of what he did in WWE because all of that is Kind of tainted out. We know what he did. We know he was a fantastic wrestler But at the same time, it's not it's for me. It's it's like well, that's cool But he did do some messed up stuff and I know his son wants the good to be remembered for you know From what he's done in the business and I get that that's his father at the end of the day And he you know, he feels like that wasn't really him but then when it's all said done a lot of other people may not feel like that and You know, it's just one of those type of things where I was like nah I think it's best WWE stay separate from it And you know if you choose to remember him for the good that's awesome But I don't think it should be a public platform that Talks about it. I think this should just be one of those water cooler situations Then Chris Benoit was a great wrestler. It just sucks what he did and I think that's probably how it should be and probably will be nothing of a major Situation where it's televised and it's talked about more so like between wrestling fans like damn Chris Benoit was a great fantastic person. I understand why WWE doesn't really acknowledge him because I mean It sucks what he did at the end so comment down below Let me know we can have that discussion. Do you guys feel like Chris Benoit should be Either, you know remembered by WWE or acknowledged by WWE in some capacity Do you feel like WWE is doing the right thing? I'm just kind of staying away from that and and and kind of letting that be what it is You know and also let me know how do you guys feel about Chris Benoit's legacy? You know, how do you feel that what he did impacted it? Do you feel like it should people should separate what he did and to his family? And and kind of just separate that from his wrestling career Or do you guys feel like it's one in the same act?
