Oh, and its The Autopsy from off the top rope!


"....I don't know if Vince McMahon is getting back up from that one, J.R."
...
Police in Atlanta, GA have released the toxicology reports from the bodies of wrestler Chris Benoit, along with those of his wife, Nancy, and 7-year old son. Reports indicate that Benoit's body contained high-levels of Xanex and hydrocondone.
Similarly, "....the body of Nancy Benoit also contained therapeutic levels of hydrocodone and Xanax, along with hydromorphone, which he said is a byproduct of the breakdown of hydrocodone."
Also, their son showed an extremely high reading of Xanex in his bloodstream, which has led investigators to believe that he may have been sedated before his death.
..
Two things:
1) I don't think CNN has any idea what hydrocodone is. Or they know, but aren't quite familiar with its effects. Everyone keeps talking about it likes its just another painkiller. I suppose thats true, if you consider "painkilling" to be best accomplished by passing out, face-down, in a half-emptied pool during a college frat party.
2) You have to admire the heart of true professional entertainer. Even during the act, Benoit had enough presence of mind to make sure that the murders would be disturbing enough to have reporters drooling at the mouth, scrounging for new and even more unsettling details even weeks later. I'm sure he's still recieving royality checks from McMahon in hell. Come to think of it, doesn't Vince have a summer house down there?
