Affaire Chris Benoit : Des nouveautés!

Sandra Toffoloni, la belle-soeur du regretté Chris Benoit, a livré pour The2Count.com plusieurs observations fort intéressantes sur celui qui s'est suicidé après avoir tué sa femme Nancy et son fils Daniel, en 2007.

Alors que le consensus général, au niveau médical, indique que Benoit souffrait du syndrome de la commotion cérébrale, Toffoloni croit que ce n'est pas la seule raison qui explique cette tragédie.

Elle assure que Benoit savait ce qu'il faisait et qu'après avoir tué ses deux proches, il se préparait à se rendre à son combat tel que prévu.

Citation:
"You know, evidence showed that on the Sunday before he committed suicide, he was booking flights to get to the show he was scheduled to appear on in Beaumont, Texas. This shows that there was a moment, however brief, that he thought he could get away with it. I don’t believe in the brain damage theory. He killed 2 people and believed he could go wrestle. The concussion theory doesn’t really stick with me."
Elle mentionne que Benoit avait un sérieux problème de drogue et de stéroïdes. Il a perdu le contrôle de lui-même. Selon l'autopsie, il n'avait qu'environ 10 mois à vivre car son cœur, trois fois plus gros que la normale, était sur le point d'exploser.

Citation:
"Yes, my brother-in-law had concussions, he hit his head for a living and I understand that. But way beyond that, he had a very serious drug and steroid problem. Unfortunately, a lot of athletes still do to this day. It’s spiraling out of control. The medical examiner told us after the autopsy that Chris was on his way to death within 10 months. His heart was huge, about 3 times normal size, and it was ready to blow up at any moment."
La mort de plusieurs lutteurs, dont celle d'Eddie Guerrero, avait selon elle un impact important sur la famille de Chris Benoit.

Citation:
"...Chris had suffered multiple losses of friends. Eddie Guerrero’s death in 2005 shocked us all, no one was prepared for that. It was devastating for Nancy but it was devastating for Chris on a whole other level. Eddie’s passing came after a long line of huge losses and Chris was in a state of perpetual bereavement ... The final blow came in mid-June 2007, just a few days before everything happened, when Sherri Martel passed away. That devastated Nancy just as much as Eddie’s death had devastated Chris."
Toffolini soutient que Benoit se préparait à quitter la WWE. Il songeait à lancer une école de lutte. Un plan d'affaires avait même été mis sur pied, mais la WWE lui a donné un push important. Benoit a donc tenu à s'entraîner encore plus fort, poussant plus loin les limites de son corps.

Citation:
"After Eddie passed away, Chris and Nancy discussed the possibility of Chris leaving the WWE and starting his own wrestling school. As a matter of fact, it had become more than a possibility. A business plan had been developed and merchandise had been designed. However, the WWE was prepared to give Chris a big push and put him into another championship match so Chris began training harder and pushing his body further. Chris did a lot of self-medicating."
