It's amazing what a person on steroids is capable of. I am thinking that is what it was.

I just cannot imagine what would send someone to that point. I feel for all the extended family. I hope they find out they are wrong.

Yeah, I just read about it on abc.com not to long ago. The sad part about it....Chris's wife had a restraining and protection order against him a few years back. Because she feared for her life. Than a few months later droppe dit. So it makes me wonder..if she was abused before and noone ever knew.

Even though I am a big fan of the Undertaker, I still love to watch and cheer for the others. I cried along with the others and lit my candle for his other children. They are saying that he did it but the world will never know the whole truth. Chris and his family will always be in our prayers. Hugs!

It is sad. And It is very weird. He was such a family guy and always talked about how much he loved his son. I heared he was on Steriods. I guess that stuff can make you parinoid and go crazy, if you're on it long enough. I just can't believe that it happened to him.

I still can not wrap my head around it, why he would ruin his reputation in such a fashion....I am in shock, something had to trigger this event. He has hurt many fans and friends if this story is true. People looked up to him as a performer and a family man. WWEs tribute only celebrated the life of the wrestler and the entertainer not the family man...

I read this to my husband this morning. We couldn't believe it. I mean we could but at the same time. Wow. We were thinking he ended up killing himself once he came down on his whatever he was on and realized what he did. But very sad story. :(

This is one of the saddest stories that I have heard in awhile. Chris was so respected in the WWE and well liked by so many and as the wrestlers talked about him, they talked about his strengths and how he loved his family. However, they talked about him being very withdrawn and quiet. I think he was depressed and that he may have been abusive at home. It is sad to think that but this could have been the end of a long time of abuse on his part.
