David Benoit, the son of the late Chris Benoit will soon be making his professional wrestling debut

David Benoit, the first son of the late, great Chris Benoit will soon be following the footsteps of his father.

The 28-year old who is a spitting image of his father has now joined Real Canadian Wrestling. The same was announced by the promotion at their recent show.

Real Canadian Wrestling is a promotion based in the city of Edmonton, the capital of Alberta Province.

His arrival was announced at RCW’s latest show, which was held on the 29th of August.

Although, Benoit has never stepped inside the ring as a professional wrestler, he recently underwent training at the Canadian Strong Style Wrestling Academy, to make it big in the pro-wrestling scene.

Can David Benoit emulate his indomitable father Chris?

David Benoit will be out there to prove his father’s greatness when he steps into the RCW ring.

David is the first son of the WWE Hall of Famer, and was born in 1993 to Chris’ first wife Martina Benoit.

At the time of his father’s controversial death, David was living with his mother Martina in Edmonton, Canada.

David’s dad Chris was unstoppable during his heydays. He is considered by many to be one of the greatest professional wrestlers of all time.

Known for his raw and rugged approach, Benoit’s career went downhill after the death of his dear friend and fellow wrestler Eddie Guerrero in 2005.

In June 2007, Benoit killed his wife Nancy Sullivan and his seven-year old son Daniel, before committing suicide.

David will be looking forward to putting all these behind, when he takes centre stage soon.
