Summary

This story centers around a famous professional wrestling entertainer, who in 2007 while at the peak of his career, brutally murdered his wife and young son. Why he did it, and what led to this tragedy, has remained the source of speculation. Then, how this was handled by his employer, WWE, is a story all in it’s own. We are going to get into all of it. In this episode of Nighttime we are joined by my good friend (and a life long wrestling fan) Aaron Corbett. Our topic is the rise and fall of the Canadian Crippler, Chris Benoit.
