:mjcry:10 years and I remember it like it happened yesterday. That TV taping was extremely tough to attend. There wasn't a dry eye in the arena during most of it.

Pretty much everyone was in tears when Triple H hugged a visibly distraught Benoit after the match. Eddie's passing broke Chris, he lost his anchor you can see it and hear it in his voice during that tribute segment they shot of him that day. Can't remember if the taping caught our reaction but it was like target center was trying to will him thru the segment when he started breaking down.

RIP Eddie, one of a kind man.

Didn't they find him the day of a ppv?

The day of a RAW taping.

Brian Pillman was a pay-per-view and Chris Benoit was the day after one.

I watched that whole episode was cool until this moment, I didn't break down but I was touched by it.

November 13th is a fukked-up day for me in all kinds of ways, though.

No event that Sunday. Horrible. shyt is burned into my mind like today is 11-13-05. Worst day ever as a fan for me. Everything changed that day. Thought it was some kind of prank being played. Just 38 years old right before thanksgiving and Christmas. shyt hit every fan I know like a truck. Everyone I know loved Eddie and it felt like they were cheering the guy behind the curtain. Him and Benoit's curtain call still remains my favorite memory as a fan.
