#37: How Chris Benoit's Life Could Have Been Saved

from The blind side · host BMG

In this episode, Common The Crusher and I discuss what steps could have been taken by WWE and Vince McMahon in order to save Chris Benoit's life following the passing of his close friend Eddie Gurerro. We also discuss the events that led up to the tragedy as well as discuss different things that could have been done differently by WWE in order to give Chris Benoit the time he needed to grieve and to get the help that he needed for himself as well as his family. We also give some advice to promotors in the wrestling business as it relates to mental health and addressing tallent within any wrestling promotion as it relates to mental health so that this sort of thing never happens again.  Please Note: I accidentally said the events that happened on June 25th 2007 happened 26 years ago. I was incorrect. They took place 15 years ago and Eddie's passing was 17 years ago.
