Chris Benoit will always be regarded as one of the greatest pro wrestlers to ever live but the murder-suicide of his family will forever stain his name. Chris Benoit’s son signed with a surprising company as well.
Former WWE Superstar Kevin Thorn recently spoke to UnSKripted and revealed that his experience working with Chris Benoit was “awesome.”
“I worked with Benoit a lot. It was awesome,” said Kevin Thorn. “We went out there and beat the crap out of each other in a couple of house shows and stuff. I still remember when everything happened, I still had black and blue all over my chest from chops and stuff. I carried those bruises for a couple of weeks after the fact, so it was kind of a reminder.”
Thorn added that he still competes inside the ring sometimes just for fun.
“I compete every now and then. It all depends – there are certain promoters out there that I really, really like, that I’ve always had a good bond with. They’re basically kind of family and friends, in a way. It makes it fun. It’s not work.” Thorn continued, “When you do it like that, at least for me, I really, really enjoy it. It doesn’t seem like, you know, a 9-to-5 job. It seems like a vacation, and it’s just fun seeing friends.”
