If you by chance have WWE 24/7 On Demand, you'll also notice a lack of Benoit. Right now on the MNW, (Monday Night Wars. Each episode they show the WWF RAW and WCW Nitro that ran head to head against each other. One of my favorite parts of 24/7.) They are up to 1997, just after Wrestlemania 13. Which, IIRC, Benoit was a regular feature of Nitro. (He was one of the four Horseman by this point.) However, he is nowhere to be seen on any of the Nitro episodes. In fact, even though Nitro and RAW were both 2 hours shows at this point in time, it looks like the Nitros are shorter in runtime than the RAWs. (Sometimes by 5-10 minutes, some times by over 30.) I have a feeling that they are cutting out all of Benoit's matches and promos.
