Actually, since the damage was caused by head trauma (not steroids or just general rough living), it was more than likely the time he spent in other companies doing it. WWE years were very likely the safest in his life, and it was also very probable that he was already a ticking time bomb. WWE's on the hook solely because he died on their watch. They had been cutting way back on stunts and moves involving potential damage to the head and neck well before he died.NameIsRobertPaulson said:Benoit's autopsy revealed the brain of an 84-year old Alzheimer's patient. Years of the WWE's abusive schuedele and steroids destroyed the man. If he was healthy, he wouldn't of done what he did.
But then, it strikes me that Eddie Guerrero was a weird choice for you to say if you're going to "go there." If not for steroids, he'd most likely be alive. Seriously, an active prescription through a bogus pharmacy and death by heart failure?
Wasn't a big fan of the joke in the first place, but it seems particularly weird to preclude one and not the other.
