the fascinating thing about benoit, and snowden and cage both made this point, is that, CTE or no, he isn't some arguable MeToo case that people can rally behind (Woody Allen), he was pretty abusive for a half-decade or so and then committed a double homicide.

the one benoit match i really loved was the pillman show match against william regal, but that was because it was all about regal's redemption (he was fit and crisp again), not so much benoit https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4t3cvn (danny cage says the benoit matches are about the other guys)

that was a key takeaway here: @RevSw1m noted the matches were very realistic, and
@TheDannyCage emphasized that they're still important and valid, because other people, doing good work, are in themShow this thread
