Why does WWE not talk about Chris Benoit?

Canadian professional wrestler, Chris Benoit’s name was blacklisted and banned from many conversations after he killed his son and wife, and unalive himself afterwards.

Retired professional Wrestler, Kurt Angle said on his podcast show that, he will not erase Benoit from history despite what he did.

“If I erase Chris Benoit, I’m going to erase most of my career,” he said.

“Oh, by the way, I did want to say this. I know that people don’t really care about me talking about Chris Benoit, but I’m not doing it for Chris Benoit. If I erase Chris Benoit, I’m going to erase most of my career. So, a lot of people might not agree with me having this show today talking about Chris and everything. I don’t condone what he did outside the ring, but what he did in the ring was phenomenal, and I love the guy for that,” he said.

Angle also shared the Benoit was the greatest wrestler he ever competed with.

“Top two, actually no, number one. He is definitely number one. I put him over everybody as far as in the ring wrestling, not overall entertainer, but in the ring, he was the best,” he added.
