Am I the only one who isn't really bothered by this?

I wouldn't say I'm bothered or offended by any means. I just think it's kind of silly to act like 2004 didn't happen.

Let's look at the other side of the coin.

Should people be bothered if he is acknowledged as the winner of the 2004 Rumble? It's not like he's being hailed or given a trophy or award. He doesn't have to be part of some promotional package of past winners. Outside of being listed, the name Benoit doesn't even need to come up.

Just don't try to gloss over your history (which I realize is like asking the sun not to shine). I think that's what I'm trying to say.

Fucking A

Also, while Benoit isn't mentioned as a winner, he is mentioned under the Facts and Figures section, under "Longest Time in the Ring"

ONE YEAR BUMP~!

Yeah, if you go to the Wrestlemania history, WM XX has edited, well, cropped him out of the best moment. The main graphic has a cropped photo of Eddie Guerrero w/ Benoit left out.

Mentioning it because they left as is after the Benoit tragedies AND during last years Mania.

Total bullshit I say. Check it out:

But he's mentioned as having beaten Trips and Shawn for the title. An even trade.

OJ Simpson allegedly killed 2 people; he's still in the hall of fame, all of his records are kept, and those who actually know their shit still think of him as one of the 10 best RBs of all time.

It's up to WWE how they handle the Benoit situation of his records. I would keep them intact, but give them passing mention.

But the kicker is the "allegedly" part. He was cleared in a court of law, ergo he's innocent and did nothing wrong.

It's the same with Jimmy Snuka. He "allegedly" killed his girlfriend but he's not being swept under the rug, in fact he's part of a huge angle and match at Wrestlemania 25.

If there was any doubt Benoit would get the benefit of it but he did it. Case closed, end of story.
