Chris Benoit's son David opens up about tragedy, training to be a wrestler, Hall of Fame, AEW

Tell Benoit son his father was a murdering psychopath

David seems like an awesome guy, we're the same age, I wish I knew him. To say what he's been through at such a fragile age, he's done really well for himself. Dealt an awful set of cards in life and has made the most of it. An inspiration. 👏🏻

"Probabaly with less diving headbutts" dude that was harsh lolz

Damn, looks just like his dad

what would the rock say....

This kid has to live the rest his life knowing his father was a murderer and committed suicide But he is his own person. He doesnt have to be reminded of rhe tragedy. Remember folks. He lost his father a step brother and step mom

It's hard to reconcile the little boy to the man before us. There will slays be question but Daniel will always have my support.

I know this isn't fair but who would hire him? His name, he looks just like his dad, and Chris Benoit past has been erased so how could he even have a career? Idk man, I just don't see Wwe or anyone really actively interested in hiring David and putting him in a story line so like I said it isn't fair to say it but it may be just a reality

he should continue the rabid wolverine monicker, all his dad's skill sets and signature moves, would love to hear "Whatever - Our lady peace" again on the wrestling stage.

Look just like his Dad

His dad was awesome regardless of what he done. Very unfortunate. He needed help and didn’t get it. We all failed Chris and his family

He is so less spoken... A cood dude in real-life, but mic-skills? Trash.

He needs to hop on a whole hell of a lot of gear 😅

David Benoit will be like bryan pillman jr

Sullivan could've done it you never know

You have a great story to tell.... No! No one knows about anything about me. WOW THATS SLAPS 🥶🥸 ROUND OF 👏 ✌️ 👏 😵‍💫🧐🥹

he got lucky his dad didn't take him out when he said I was on my way there

I thought he was dead

Dudes lucky he wasn’t home that night

Chris Benoit was in his way to being a GOAT

Thank you Chris for giving David the opportunity to speak. Such a cool dude

Man i feel so bad for david 😢

I honestly do feel very bad for him. Since Chris Benoit is no longer alive, it's like his son is basically the living victim that people take out their frustration on.

I think Chris Benoit should be in the Hall of Fame it was definitely one of my top five favorite wrestlers he's the wolverine is criminal that WWE wiped him underneath the rug

Jesus he looks just like his pa.

He looks SO MUCH LIKE HIS FATHER!!

If this man gets into the pro ring, watch out ladies!
He’s gonna be a heart breaker.
From one man to another!

Stay strong, stay positive! One love ! 💪💪✌🏼🤘🏼🤙🏼👊🏼

Sadly wwe will never let him in because it would bring everything up again

I didn't know one of his kids were still alive. Glad he is and I hope he has some success in wrestling and makes Benoit a good name again. Also 5 years ago? Anyone know if he's actually wrestling? I haven't heard of him at all until today.

Does no one feel like there’s something a little off with David ??

Chris Benoit was a totally different person from the CTE and Brain damage.

Comments are too nice. That's odd

David benoit has the eyes of a man that either cries every single day or smokes so much pot to soppress his inner monsters .. the eyes are so telling

Sounds like a make a wish kid

I thought they all got deleted

It’s so unfortunate for him that he’ll never be able to have a career in WWE but there’s always other companies

Why did he reach out for this interview 😆

Gets his looks from his daddy I see

Didn’t realize how old this pod was.. really wish to see him out there would be amazing to hear the rabid wolverines music again.. amazing pod David your a amazing for being so open it’s beautiful to hear his flesh speak good about him

I was a big fan of Chris Benoit during his years at WWE, as were many. It warms my heart to see David ♥️

I hate to be the guy to point this out but he doesn't seem like he's close to being ready no real character

I hope he achieves all he wants

Legend kid

Hes to skinny and frail to be a wrestler

I can feel this man’s pain his dad was his hero and role model and I can relate growing up Chris Benoit was mine as well I don’t condone what Chris done but his career shouldn’t be ignored he should be in the hall of fame best technical wrestler off all time also they don’t speak about the affect the wwe had on Chris mental state all from putting his life on the line for the sport and company he loved such a sad story R.I.P to Nancy Daniel and Chris also David if your reading this I hope you achieve everything you’ve set out to do and I know your dad is living on in your heart and mind just like he dose in mine and through his fans the rabid wolverine will live on forever ❤️

I can imagine how hard it is to talk about that. David needs to let it out though

His father was murdered. Wake up people

If he wants to become a wrestler he needs to stop retweeting tucker carlson and get in the ring

here in 2025. Really cool interview. Curious if Chris would do this interview differently in 2025. What would he want to change. I lost my dad my senior year of high school. I can not imagine it being such a national/ public event. You can tell the toll it actually took on him

Feel like he knows something that he isn’t aloud to say 😅
