From the Niagara Falls Review:
When Chris Benoit visited Niagara Falls with his wife five years ago, he couldn’t stop talking about the children.
“To be here talking to the kids – my biggest fans – is what it’s all about. There’s not a greater reward than putting a smile on a kid’s face,” Benoit told The Review in August 2002 in an interview on Clifton Hill…
After the weekend’s events, his merchandise was being removed this week from the shelves at the Niagara Falls WWE store.
“We had very little inventory (of Benoit’s), but what was there we are taking off the shelf,” said Gary MacGregor, director of marketing with Canadian Niagara Hotels, which operates the souvenir shop.
“We just feel that it’s not appropriate – especially at this point – for kids to see that. Parents don’t want to talk about this to their children and we don’t want to force anything upon anybody.”
