wow. just wow. :'(

The bits with Chavo on the golf course etc, brought a tear to my eye. Again.

:( I Just woke up and saw my cousins msn name saying R.I.P. Eddie Guerrero. I thought it was his way of saying Eddie was takin' out of the main event, or worst case scenario fired. Then he said check wwe.com and I saw the news. Then I came here, I read this entire thread. I'm still fucking shocked, I cannot believe this. I don't want to argue, but those saying it should have been someone else, that is seriously not a good thing to say, you've lost my respect. It should not have been anyone.

This is just shocking. Honestly I'm still in denial. I'm still thinking he has a chance of being alive, but he obviously doesn't. Eddie was a great performer, and now I feel like shit for missing smackdown this week because I had to study. It was his last performance, and I missed it. fuck. Why is he dead? FUCK. I don't even know what to say.

He would have been the World champion in 9 fucking hours. But that doesn't matter. Why is he dead? I can't understand this. He is young and has 3 kids all under the age of 15. I can't believe this. I just can't. They better have some damn good tribute shows for him, and the end of kerwin for sure.

Just watched his celebration with Benoit at WMXX on wwe.com... I've got tears in my eyes...

We'll miss you Eddie Guerrero. R.I.P.

My tribute to him is an msn picture. I guess I could have used a better picture, but I like this one. Going to have it up on my msn for a LONG time.

[Joey Slugs]

As soon as the song loaded up, I started crying and had to close the page.

[Extreme Angle]

hell yeah i am. my eyes tear up when writing in this bloody thread... :'(

[addy2hotty]

Just thought...

Eddie/Owen vs Pillman/Rude

I can't wait to get to heaven.

[Extreme Angle]

well anyway... lets hope his next life will be as good as his last one...

[Nark Order]

As soon as the song loaded up, I started crying and had to close the page.

The song came on this morning at random on iTunes while I read the news and I had to turn it off. But I knew that it captured what everybody was feeling so I included it in my tribute.

[Joey Slugs]

oh my fuckin god, no way. This may sound a bit odd...but holyshit, im really getting teary eyed here.

Not odd at all my friend, i think that today it's quite alright to shed more than a few tears.

[Gerard]

Pressconference is online now.

[Paki Crippler]

Heart failure.

Really???

[Joey Slugs]

Just thought...

Eddie/Owen vs Pillman/Rude

I can't wait to get to heaven.

With Andre & Gorilla looking on and smiling.

[CharismaInjection]

I can't find the pressconferance?

[Savio]

That just makes me sick.What is it?

[Disturbed316]

[CharismaInjection]

yeah, but it's not up yet???

i found this on it... just abotu to read it

[Disturbed316]

It's up

[Nark Order]

Chavo is trying his hardest to be very calm. Very respectful.

[DaVe]

Really???

It is being reported everywhere now.

RIP Eddie.:(

[Disturbed316]

Christ that blonde woman is a total bitch. I'm really not liking how this "conferrence" is being played out. Seems waaaay too fake, too impersonal.

[Joey Slugs]

i might just spend the rest of today watching footage of Eddie on 24/7 online.

[Extreme Angle]

god i wish i had been born earlier to have witnessed sum of his greatest matches...

[CharismaInjection]

can sumone post a link to the actual video, I can't find it?

[Extreme Angle]

me neither...

[Nark Order]

I still can't believe that this is happening.

[King Jericho]

Man this is some emotional news, I got a call from Dave Youell earlier saying about it, I'm still not 100% believing this, I'm not saying it's un-true and it's a sick joke, I'm just so unwilling to believe because I don't want to believe.

Eddie's loss is a loss to the world. And he was simply 'The Man'.

RIP Eddie Guerrero, an all time great and Legend.

[Nark Order]

It's under the press conference photo and it says "watch" in small letters.

[Eunos]

Oh my God.

This is absolutley Tragic and unexpected :(


Im going to miss him..

R.I.P Guerrero :(

[Joey Slugs]

book it now: chavo wrestles in tights just like eddie's in a match on Raw.

[Bad Company]

I don't know what to say, and all I can say has already been said.
He will be missed by all.

RIP Eddie :(

[Fox]

Goodbye, Eddie.

[Joey Slugs]

just like in the Owen tribute show, all matches are voluntary for tonight's supershow taping.

[Cool King]

I'm glad there doing an Eddie Tribute Show on both RAW and SmackDown!.

[addy2hotty]

I still can't believe that this is happening.

[Joey Slugs]

eddie was 4 years sober this month. god. so unfair.

[Extreme Angle]

i have just told every1 on the www.runescape.com forums and one replied this.
" good, he was payed a hell of alot for nothing "

[Extreme Angle]

waht a fucking ass hole... for any1 who plays runescape his user is robb39

[addy2hotty]

Extreme Angle, if thats all you can post, you are not needed on this thread.

[Nark Order]

Obviously there are asshole in the world... That's not what this thread is about.

[Kane Knight]

can sumone post a link to the actual video, I can't find it?

I beleve someone has, but

http://www.wwe.com/content/media/video/494698/1519562/1564376/eddiepressconf?section=%2F

Hot Damn, Chavo's composed.

[Joey Slugs]

i have just told every1 on the www.runescape.com (http://www.runescape.com) forums and one replied this.
" good, he was payed a hell of alot for nothing "

we don't need that here. it's hard enough dealing with the news. we don't need to get more upset with people who don't care as much as well do, if at all.

[Corkscrewed]

You can tell he's trying his hardest not to totally break down.

I have a lump in my stomach right now.

I'm going to post my own eulogy (it's what little I can do) when I find a way to compose some words.


This is very late notice, but I hope Jericho, Malenko, and El Hijo de Santo can make it. Or be featured.

Rest in Peace, Eddie. My favorite wrestler, bar none. The best wrestler in the WWE. Perhaps the best wrestler ever.

Thank you for all the memories.

[Savio]

Yeah on another forum they locked a Eddie topic because they said there should only be on wrestling topic.

[Cool King]

Another Eddie video is on WWE.COM.

[Corkscrewed]

Yeah, that female reporter is really annoying with some of the dumbest standard journalism questions I've heard.

"How big of a loss is this?"

"How's his wife taking this?"

HOW DO YOU THINK?????

[Savio]

Is there any words from superstars that are close to him? Like Jericho and Benoit yet? like from there web sites?

[Extreme Angle]

she's blonde...

[ThruTheWire]

It seriously hurts to read about this... RIP Eddie. WWE will never be the same.

[Corkscrewed]

not yet. checked Jericho's and Storm's sites

[KingofOldSchool]

I still can't get over this.

I'm going to order the Eddie Guerrero DVD at work this week.

But this woman is stupid.

Woman: How did his wife feel about this?

Chavo: Well...she was devastated.

[CharismaInjection]

Vince dsaid himself:

Chavo is the last Guerrero in WWE now. Please give him a push and get rid of the Kerwin White gimmick.

Eddie was by far my favourite wrestler.

RIP Eddie.

He will never be forgotten.

[KingofOldSchool]

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm not reading the "spoilers" for the shows this week.

[CharismaInjection]

me neither.

[Savio]

I will I def can't wait.

[Joey Slugs]

i'm with you on that one KOOS

is Raw being taped or something?

that video keeps stopping every 2 seconds on WWE.com :mad:

[CharismaInjection]

yes both Raw and Smackdown are being taped tonight.

I don't get how these guys can wrestle, I would break down, I have a lot of respect for them, doing it for Eddie.

how the hell is chavo and benoit going to perform tonight? my respect goes out to everyone of the guys in the back tonight. face, heel... shit... even masters will have my respect this week.

[Extreme Angle]

damb right...
i wodner if any ecw people will do anything...

[Joey Slugs]

damb right...
i wodner if any ecw people will do anything...

most of the ecw guys that he fueded with are already in the wwe (outside of 2 cold scorpio). guys like dean, rey, & benoit (going back to their matches in japan) i would imagine, we will all see this week.

[Hardkore Kidd J]

OH my god I had to see if this was true or not some friend on another site told me about this and I was like "Bull shit no way" But ever since I saw this thread I just can't get over it. Eddie Guererro dead? RIP Eddie. :'(

[Boondock Saint]

Holy fuck. I just woke up. OMG. This sucks.

R.I.P. Eddie Guerrero. You were one of the greats.

:'( :'( :'(

[BlackDawn2024]

Good god. I wake up this morning, feeling good, feeling great. Then I see on here that Eddie has passed away. You can't take away someone who deserves it. You can't take away some rapist or serial killer, you take away one of my favorite and most respected wrestlers of all time.

Farewell, Eddie. I'll always remember how you entertained me each week.

i just watched the press conference.. I can't believe how Chavo is taking it.
a new video is up on wwe.com, its depressing near the end.

[weather vane]

RIP Eddie :(

Is there anyway to save videos from WWE.com?

I cannot play them in Firefox or Explorer. I want to see the press conference.

[CharismaInjection]

looks like Chavo is taking it terribly, everytime he speaks, he sounds like he's gonna break down.

[Corkscrewed]

Posted this in the Eulogy thread, but I'm sure no one would mind if I posted it here as well.





'No, no, not this. This can't be true. This can't be right. No.'

It hit me immediately. The full brunt of the meaning, tragedy, and historical significance of this moment hit me like vicious haymaker straight into my gut. That sinking pit in my stomach, that feeling of absolute forlorne despair, focused in the deepest part of my body, that feeling which I had rarely ever felt. That was what anchored me down as I tried to process this information. As silly as it might sound, I hadn't felt this feeling of absolute shock and sadness since the Twin Towers came tumbling down in New York, four years ago.

My favorite wrestler in the world, my favorite wrestler ever, was dead. Taken from us in the blink of an eye... or in this case, the sweep of one toothbrush. One moment he was in the prime of his life, full of vigor and vitality. And the next moment, he is looking down upon us all with the same vitality, only one lifetime removed, swept among the ethereal glow of the angels who have greeted him.

This is something I will never forget. "Where were you when you found out Eddie Guerrero died?" I was in my USC apartment. Nothing special. But that doesn't lessen the memory, or the pain.

How can someone I've never met affect me like so? Some might think this to be silly. "He was only a wrestler." Indeed, it's not like he was the President of the United States, or even a mainstream celebrity. "He competed in something scripted... dare I say, fake." And indeed, professional wrestling is not looked at as a most respectable sport by mainstream society. "You're being silly, getting so worked up for a wrestler."

No I'm not.

Eddie was not only a great wrestler, he was a great MAN. He was by no means perfect. Certainly, in his youth, his addiction to drugs and alchohol led to the spiral that nearly resulted in his death. He led a life of vice and abuse. He was not an angel for his entire life.

And yet, he found redemption. He found resolution. He found... himself. As admirable as a saint may be, a person who has sunken to the lowest depths of immorality and returned to genuinely gain penance and truly change himself for the better may be even more admirable. And that was Eddie.

Four years. He had been sober for just a little over four years. And in that four years, he had established a tremendous comeback, going from losing his job and nearly his family to being the greatest champion in the greatest federation of his sport. To fullfilling his lifelong dream. And in four years, he might very well have been on his way to a second tour of duty at the top.

Eddie was a true five star wrestler. He could work any match with any man and make it look like a million bucks. He could fly with the luchadores, tackle the grapplers, weave the underdog story against the hosses, work the mic like no other, and entrap you with his charisma. He was an beloved babyface character. He was a despicable heel character. He was a consumate ace in every aspect of wrestling.

But even the greatest wrestlers have their demons, and what is most remarkable, above all else, was that he was able to overcome them. That will gain my respect anyday. He recognized his vices. He defeated them. He became a living success story to any person battling addiction.

And now his death will become a testimony both to the ravages of addiction and the triumph of overcoming them. After all, in the short four years that he was sober, he was able to accomplish so much. So indellibly much.

Though this is personal speculation, the coroner will probably find the result to be heart failure as a result of a combination of past damage from drugs and alcohol and from possible steroid use. And that's a shame, but perhaps we can learn from this, if it indeed is the issue.

But this isn't about drugs. Or alcohol. Or any number of bad things he might have done. This is about Eddie. A human being who fell from glory but was able to climb back. He was a precocious boy and a great man, an example of how to conduct oneself both as a wrestler and as a person.

I will remember him, not for his vices, but for his victory over his vices. I will remember him for his amazing matches. His priceless promos. His colorful persona. His love and devotion to his family. His quiet, honorable nature. His passion for life.

My heart goes out to his wife, Vickie, as well as his three daughters, Shaul, Sherylin, and Katie Marie, and his mother. No parent should have to outlive his or her child. My sympathies to the Guerrero family, and to Eddie's friends.

The wrestling world has lost a shining star, a legend, and a great man.

Rest in Peace
EDDIE GUERRERO
1967 ~ 2005

[Gone Mad]

We lost a great one today. And also one of my favorites.

I still can't believe it, just like everyone can't either like it was some twisted joke. From someone who is latino myself, someone like Eddie was great to have as he had the talent, he had the heart, hell, he had it all and I find that as an inspiration as Latino myself that there is a great talent like him. He went through hell and came back, you know the story, and became the champ. Eddie, was true greatness and as tired as the saying goes, it's the truth: there will be only one Eddie Guerrero. And for all that he has done, I will miss him greatly.

My thoughts and prayers go to his family, his friends, to anyone who knew him. Here's my picture tribute...

a friend of mine that goes to the University of Minnesota just called me and is going to the supershow tonight. i have never been more envious of anyone in my life.

that was amazing.

RIP Eddie

My goodbye:

Even the closest to you never saw it coming
Deep emotion swells in us all
Devistated by losing such a great man
Inspiration is one thing you will a symbol for
Excitement was one thing you brought to us

Giving everything you had to your audience
Understanding why you were put on this earth
Entertainment was deep in your blood
Rejoiced, we feel to have known you
Rewarded, we feel to have watched you perform
Even though you may not be with us now
Remembered will be your grace, tenacity, and talent
Overwhelmed we may be but also happy that you can now main event in heaven.

[Hired Hitman]

I tried to sum up my feelings, but everytime I went to type I couldn't, No words can discribe how I feel right now.

:'(

[Corkscrewed]

I need to go buy some video tapes today to tape RAW tomorrow night and SmackDOWN on Friday.

[Joey Slugs]

i just rewatched the eddie/mr. kennedy match from friday.

the last images we have of eddie is that of the crowd giving him a huge "eddie! eddie!" chant while being helped up by the refs along with a quick (but funny) eddie/dave backstage spot.

we are left watching eddie's last match that included his classic "chair shot" win. only he could pull that off so easily.

i almost wish we could see chavo win that way this week. to do it the way "uncle eddie" would. that would be a great way for him to tribute his "little trooper".

the great thing about eddie was that if he came to the ring one night and on the mic claimed he was black and was going to rap battle cena..... we would all eat it up and believe it. he was that good.

[Kane Knight]

Denial is strongest here because Eddie wasn't just a current wrestler, but an incredibly vibrant man. He was bouncing and energetic in almost all instances, so it's shocking. We expect old people to die. Not to say he should die, but if Flair passed away, people would say it was his time. Same's true with Hogan, and both are still active wrestlers. Not saying we wouldn't mourn them, I'm just saying it's easier to believe.

Eddie was so alive, it's impossible to accept him as anything else. The guy worked his matches like a total professional. His energy is a large part of what endeared him to the fans, even as a heel. Come on, the man cut a promo with no words...Just a Mysterio mask.

However, sometimes you could see it in his eyes, a single look, an age and fatigue beyond his years. We know he wrestled with his own personal demons, and that took a toll on him.

I can only hope that he's at peace now.

[Corkscrewed]

Beautifully said. :y: :y:

[Tornado]

Wow, just wow. Been out at my friends all day playing Smackdown vs Raw 2k6...just got home now.
I am shocked, I am actually shaken and upset....wow, just wow.


RIP Eddie, Lie Cheat and Steal for Life...

[Sadistic]

I'm absouletly shocked. I've always loved Eddie's matches.
Eddie was cetainly one of a kind and has left a hole in the WWE that not many wrestlers can fill.
His promos were so emotional, his matches were so entertaining. He certainly had all the characteristics of an amazing wrestler.
He worked so hard to get to the position he reached in WWE that at least we can say he accomplished his dreams before he passed away.
You will be missed Eddie.

[alvarado52]

Yknow, a little over a year ago my dad passed away. Me and him never really had alot of interests in common, but he would try. I remember he would bring me home RAW and Smackdown! mags. But this biggest thing, i remember when the Eddie Guerrero story showed on UPN. He watched it and came up to me the next day and said 'hey, that Eddie Guerrero guy, he went through alot of sh*t man, hes a strong guy.' i laughed and i remember telling him 'so did you dad, alot of smililar things'. And we laughed, and he watched wrestling with me for about 2 months and ALWAYS marked out when Eddie came out with the low rider and stuff. My dad could connect with him, because they both went through drug problems, they were both hispanic, and Eddie carried not just the hispanic heritage with pride, but the CHICANO heritage, the low riders, the slang, the attitude. After my dad passed away in a car accident, anytime i saw Eddie on WWE programing, i smiled because he reminded me so much of my dad and i could just picture my dad smiling and going 'alright, he about to kick someones ass, who is that bald guy? (it was Kurt Angle lol)'. Maybe thats why this loss of a great man has hit me pretty hard. All i know is, now my dad will get to shake his hand up in heaven. RIP Eddie Guerrero, RIP David Alvarado...

[RGWhat316]

A friend of mine was going to meet "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan today, and he heard people talking about Eddie, so he called me for info. And unfortunately this is no joke. I just still couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the headline on WWE.com. I was looking forward to seeing him at Survivor Series, but no longer. What a sad, sad day.

[Scarface]

RIP Eddie

I will miss seeing your amazing athletism, your unique style and your enigmatic charisma. Wrestling is now mourning the loss of one of the greatest ever.

[Ninti the Mad]

god this sucks...

RIP Eddie... I have no words to describe how I feel.

[Destor]

No one chooses when they get to go, they go when God calls them. I just wish he hadn't been called so soon. R.I.P. Eddie Guerrero, it was your time.

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Got the call at work, couldn't believe it when I heard... read it as soon as I got home. Eddie may you rest in peace... I am truly saddened by your loss, as everyone here is...

[Avenger]

RIP Eddie

You were one of the greats, always will be

[Funky Fly]

I was on earlier and couldn't believe it. This has just killed my whole day. I couldn't even speak or type after watching that conference and those beautiful tributes. I was gonna call my brothers and tell them, but I lost my voice for a while.

I don't even know what to say. Eddie was my favourite current wrestler in the WWE, and now he's gone. I never got to see him live, like I did with Owen, but that same distractedness and empty feeling has been with me all day. I actually cried during that first tribute video.

Wow.

RIP Eddie.

[Taker Fan]

My friend gave me a call while I was in the mall with a friend of mine, and by the tone of his voice I knew he wasn't kidding, and I just could not believe it and started to tear up. When I got home I looked right away on WWE.com, and it was true.

Eddie you are one of the all-time great wrestlers, and you will be truly missed by everyone. May God rest your soul, Eddie. Rest in Peace :(

[The Answer]

R.I.P Eddie :'( :'(

[mitchables]

I don't stop by the Wrestling Forum anymore since I haven't had access to cable TV since my parents moved, but I heard about this through a number of posters on this site and felt that I should pay my respects.

Eddie Guerrero was an incredibly gifted athlete and professional wrestler. Sure, he had his demons, but don't we all. I spent countless hours as a young adolescent watching Eddie fly about the ring with the grace of a swan, and the brutality of a bull to the face, and was mesmerised every second. He was a great wrestler, and a magnificent entertainer.

R.I.P Eddie. You will be sorely missed. :'(

[Silent]

I'm not sure if anyone else had the same thing happen to them, but I found it a little disturbing that a "Land of the Dead" ad appeared on the WWE site right before the page..

[Kid Robb]

I don't watch wrestling anymore these days, but I always enjoyed Eddie's performances, particularly with ECW and WCW. Very sad to hear him gone so young.

RIP.

[Ruien]

Bye Eddie, I will miss you.

R.I.P

[Corkscrewed]

Goodness, I'm still in an awkward mental state.

As retarded as this sounds, I honestly wish this was all some sort of mistake or something. Like he's not REALLY dead. Or like he'll be lying there and suddenly he's revived or something.

I know, I'm blabbering.... but this is probably the only case where I'd totally mark out if, say at the funeral, he jumps out of the coffin and announces to the astonished crowd, "Oh yeah... I DO LIE!!!!" :D

That sounds sadistic, but the alternative is so much worse. Yes, I'm selfish.

Hopefully, the WWE can set up some sort of trust fund, like if you buy Eddie Guerrero merchanise, the profits go to his family.

Gosh, I can't even begin to imagine how his wife must feel right now. :wavesad:

One of my favorite wrestlers of all time, RIP Eddie :(. Now we'll never get to see the dream match of Eddie vs Shawn Michaels :(

[Kapoutman]

I just learned it two minutes ago. It's really disturbing me. I know that he will be missed by a lot of people.

RIP Eddie.

[redoneja]

I am in a state of complete shock. I don't know what to do . Even though I have never met him, I feel like I have lost a family member. Same way with Pillman, Owen, etc. These guys are like real-life superheros to me. And to see him go, its....its like IDK how to describe it. I will never get to see Eddie perform again. EVER. And that hurts.

Do you know how hard it was for me to break the news to my grandfather? Even he teared up a little. I just felt like sitting there, my mind was numb. It still kinda is. I feel like crying. Seeing these men, who play such strong characters, break down and show how much they love each other, it gets to me. Where do we go from here? I can't imagine Smackdown without Eddie, just like I couldnt imagine it without Owen.

Eddie was probably one of my favorite wrestlers right now. I feel such a sickning feeling in my stomach. He's gone. He's really gone. Goodbye Eddie. Thank you for everything.

Wow. When I read the news at 7 PM, I was in shock. I thought it really was some sick joke, but I guess not.

Eddie, so long, and thanks for all the memories. Truly a great wrestler, you will be sorely missed.

God I went from really happy to really sad I feel like crying after reading this entire thread RIP Eddie

"I've been sitting here all night trying to get some words out. Eddie Guerrero was the perfect name for us to book when we started ROH. He's been a major influence on everyone that has ever stepped in a ROH ring. He defined and innovated the style you see today in ROH. When we started ROH and he was available we knew he was the perfect guy to get ROH attention and set the vibe of the company.

I'm not going to act like I knew Eddie well or that he would even know who I am today, but he was a pleasure to work with. He always treated everyone with respect in his soft-spoken, humble, classy way. If I'm able to get the words out maybe I'll write more later.

Eddie Guerrero will be missed by everyone who knew him, everyone who simply crossed paths with him and all those that had the opportunity to see him wrestle. Eddie will never be forgotten.

This Saturday's show will be dedicated to Eddie Guerrero."

God Speed Eddie Guerrero!!

It’s always the ones you DON’T expect to die are the ones who always go too soon and Eddie Guerrero is a prime example of someone who we were robbed of today. I didn’t know Eddie that well but it the time I did get to meet him he exuded everything in which this business SHOULD be about. Honor, class and something Eddie had earned from anyone who ever met him and that is RESPECT.
<!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]--><?XML:NAMESPACE PREFIX = O /><O:P></O:P>
They say that eyes are the windows to a person’s soul. Well, when I looked in Eddie’s eye I saw passion. Passion for his business and the passion he had for his family when he brought them to the shows. My DEEPEST condolences go out to the Guerrero family and they all will be in my thoughts. GODSPEED EDDIE!!

[FourFifty]

I held it in at work, and I was alright.
I held in in talking to a friend in the parking lot who I haven't seen in a while.
I broke down the moment I got in my car.:'(
Good-bye Eddie, you will be missed

:wavesad:

[Mikey]

I am at a total loss of words. I am deeply saddened and shocked by the death of Eddie Guerrero.

RIP Eddie. You will forever be missed

[Heyman]

I don't really have much of a conscience.......as some of you who may know me cyberally may have figured out......but I can honestly say that the news of Eddie's passing away sent chills down my spine.

I'm not going to lie and say something like, "Eddie was my favorite wrestler ever!" or "I've been crying all day!" or anything like that, but I do want to take this to simply say, "thank-you."


Instead of mourning the death of such a great wrestler (and human being) in Eddie Guerrero, I'd like to thank him for all of the wonderful memories that he provided me.


-The Lie, cheat, and steal skits with Chavo
-His unbelievable matches with Rey Mysterio, Kurt Angle, Edge, and many others.
-His Wrestlemania celebration with Chris Benoit
-His 'mamacita' skits with Chyna

And many more....


Other than that, I don't have too much more to say.


I'm glad that most of (or all) of Tpww have responded well to this, and continue to focus on the positives of Eddie Guerrero's life.......and the many wonderful experiences that we remember of him.



God Bless Eddie Guerrero.


May you rest in peace.



:y:

[Xen0ciDe]

Christ.

Not much could bring me back to TPWW, but I am sad to say that this is something that did (this is Vega...forgot my pass but I knew the pass to my friend's account).

Tragic. I haven't watched wrestling for months but I still enjoy it, and I remember the days when Eddie was the highlight of the night and the real reason to even watch the show. It will be hard for the WWE to recover from this, Eddie is one of the best wrestlers of all time. Tragic that it happened the day he was set to win the title as well, reminds me of the Owen Hart incident in that respect. Terrible, Terrible day for wrestling. He was so young too, feel so bad for his family. He will be sorely missed.

Rest In Peace.

[Drakul]

I admit I cried when I found out and tried to tell someone else about it :$ :'(
Gonna miss him more than I miss any other wrestler or other public figure.

A website that I think is Chavos official site (http://www.kerwin-white.com or the site also goes by www.chavo-guerrero.com) has a Book of Condolence which will be passed onto the Guerrero Family.

wow, you know something is big when Heyman comes out of retirement.

I'm really just in a state of shock still. RIP Eddie

[CYCLOPTERSAURUS]

Terrible, terrible news. Easily one of my favorite wrestlers, and the industry will not be the same without him. It's always tragic when some one dies, but this is really heartbreaking. I never knew him personally, all I can do is reflect on the memories he has given us in the ring. Rest in peace Eddie.

RIP Eddie, you will never be forgotten.

Chris Jericho on Eddie's Passing









http://www.chrisjericho.com/images/FrontPage1.jpg
I am devastated by the news of Eddy's passing and I am so sad...

I've lost alot of friends over the years but this one hurts the most by far.

I had the pleasure of meeting Eddy in Mexico City almost 14 years ago and we've been close ever since (although it didn't start that way!) He is one of my favorite people that I've ever met in the wrestling business, as well one of the greatest performers I've ever seen and had the pleasure to work with. One of my favorite times in my career was when Eddy and I were an underutilized, underpushed, hell, almost non-exisitant tagteam, that were thrown together randomly in WCW. But there was a chemistry there that existed becuase we had mutual respect for each other and we both loved what we were doing. One of my most cherished matches was myself and Eddy vs Chris and Dean in Knoxville, on a benefit show for our dear friend Brian Hildebrand. All four of us started the same way and had the same love and respect for the business, for Brian and for each other...it was a magical night. My best match of 1997 was against Ed at Fall Brawl that year. He was as talented as they come and a true class act.

He was also so humble and a true family man and most importantly a warrior for God. He taught me so much about wrestling and about being a man and it is an honor to call him a true brother and friend.

I have so many classic Eddy stories that I would love to share, but instead I'm just going to go and cry myself to sleep remembering what an awesome human being Eddy was and will always be...

May God bless your family and your soul and may he keep you safe forever putillo falso....I love you my brother...

Love your chapete

Dedicating my 15,000th post to him :wavesad:

[RP]

Its really hard to even think about Eddie Guerrero dying even tho he passed. I'm not sure what to say.I dont post on this forum alot , but aside from Chris Benoit, Eddie was my favorite wrestler of all time. His DVD ( Which i own and love ) was amazing. Not because of the matched, but because of the story of Eddie. I like many other fight demons and to see this guy tell his story and his battles and see him conquer the demons was amazing and very motivating. He inspired me not as a aspiring wrestler ( which i'm not ) and not because of his charachter in ring, but because of his charachter out of the ring. He lived the life he did so that others with simliar demons and problems can take notes from him on how to be a better man in life. For that i thank him. I thank him for having such amazing ability and personality in the ring, I thank him for working as hard as he did to make it into wrestling and become a world champion, becuase if he hadnt worked that hard, I wouldnve been able to hear his story and take notes on how he conducted himself out of the ring through out all of life's turmoil. Eddie Guerrero is and will always be the man.

[Nowhere Man]

Just watched an old AAA match with Los Gringos Locos (Eddie, Art Barr, and Louie Spicolli). I was stunned by how amazing all three of those guys were, and gave me chills realizing that none of them are around anymore.

[LoDownM]

:'( RIP Eddie

[Corkscrewed]

Amidst all of this mourning, I'm not sure if I did post this, and even if I did, it deserves to be said again.

Eddie, from the bottom of my heart...

THANK YOU.

The world needs more inspirations like you. Thank you for entertaining us, even at the cost of your body. Thank you for the laughs, and emotion, the triumphs, the matches, and most importantly, the example you set by overcoming your own demons, showing others that it was possible.

We'll get through this much in the same way you got through your problems... one day at a time. But you will never be forgotten.

I just got threw watching the Malenko/Guerrero 2 out of 3 falls match from ECW with the commentary track of Dean and Eddie (off of the Eddie DVD) and at the end Dean says that he hopes in another ten years they could come back and watch it again. I got depressed all over again when I heard that. :'( This just goes to show ya, none of us are promised one more day.

Go to the second disk and watch the thing about Eddie VS the monkey... that'll cheer you up.

[Cuzziebro]

It will never be the same without Eddie Guerrero. I dont know what it will be like watching Smackdown anymore.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

The worst part is, it's still not really clicking. Even now, reading everything, and looking at all of the tribute pictures, you can't help but think it's not real. You think that you just saw him a few days ago, that he looked so healthy, that he was young, etc. It's hard to grasp that outside of taped footage, we will never see Eddie again. If it wasn't for the sadness that I'm feeling, I don't think I'd believe it at all. He had a lot of life ahead of him, and it's a shame he didn't get to live it, especially after everything he fought through... Then again, at least he lived to see brighter days, and was fortunate enough to have those 4 sober years at the end, with his family, with his success, with his fans, in control of his life. Most people couldn't accomplish what Eddie did, or live the life he did in two lifetimes, let alone do it in 38 years, and I think that speaks bounds about the type of man Eddie Geurrero was.

Eddie Guerrero passes away
Nov. 13, 2005

WWE is deeply saddened by the news that Eddie Guerrero has passed away. He was found dead Sunday morning in his hotel room in Minneapolis. Eddie is survived by his wife Vickie and daughters Shaul, 14, Sherilyn, 9, and Kaylie Marie, 3.

The cause of death is unknown at this time. An autopsy will be performed in Minneapolis on Monday, and Eddie's body will then be flown to Phoenix. Funeral arrangements are set for Wednesday in Scottsdale, Arizona.

http://www.wwe.com/inside/news/eddieguerreropasses

[Pegasus Crawford]

It's so difficult to believe the Eddie is really gone, and considering that there seemed to be no indication of Eddie having any serious type of health problem. Eddie Gurerro was a one-of-a-kind person.

You will be missed, Eddie. :(

[Cuzziebro]

WWKD, your post made me cry.

[The Naitch]

what makes this whole thing surreal is that he was taken away from us right when he was in the middle of a main event program. I can't remember the last time someone all of a sudden just dies when he's in the hunt for the World title

[Chavo Classic]

I'm genuinely close to tears. Just watching the press conference now.

RIP EDDIE.

You brought laughter and happiness to all of our lives.

[BlackDawn2024]

I just can't process this right now. It seems like a dream. I keep thinking I'll wake up and be like, "What a fucked up dream.". Unfortunately, it's no dream. I need to see the tribute shows to get some real grasp on this.

R.I.P. Eddie
:wavesad:

[LK]

I just can't believe this. When I saw the news on the main page, I just went into shock. I woke up this morning hoping it was a really bad dream but this is all real.

R.I.P Eddie Guerrero. There will never be another Latino Heat.

[Astley316]

My friend, just told me, have you heard the news about eddie, i didnt believe her, ive just watched the press confrence, and it still wont sink in that he's really gone

Rip Eddie, you were one of the best

[Cuzziebro]

I just relised that Eddies last match was against Ken Kennedy and he won via cheating. Pretending to be knocked out from the chair that he threw to Kennedy. Atleast he had a good last match.

[SammyG]

This is unbelievable. I am deeply saddened and shocked at this news. RIP Eddie Guerrero, thank you for EVERYTHING. I teared up when i read the story, truly tragic

[Lara Emily]

I just can't believe it, I was away from the computer all of yesterday so I only found out from the front page this morning. I'm in shock. I just can't believe he's gone, a man I respected and admired, a wrestler I followed for going on almost a decade now (and even more retrospectively). I can't stop crying, I feel honoured to have seen him in person wrestle Kurt Angle last year at Summerslam. He will be missed dearly by all who knew him, and by all who watched him on TV. He was by all accounts a wonderful human being and I want to thank him for everything he gave to the fans of this great sport. I will be uploading a series of Eddie Guerrero matches as soon as I have the time. My heart goes out to his family and friends I can only imagine what they are going through right now, if I, a person who has never spoken to or truly met Eddie Guerrero feel this sad.


RIP Eddie Guerrero may you rest in peace

[V]

I'm really glad I got to see him perform live at least once (summerslam 2004). Still finding this hard to believe.

Since I didn't say it in my first post, thank you for all the memories and times Eddie.

[Impact!]

Damn, I got on msn earlier and Cuzziebro619 asked me if he'd actually passed away, and I hate to say it but my first thought was, "Wow They've really taken this concussion angle to another level". Then I came online here and couldnt believe it, All I could think was Fuck, why him, why not someone who deserved it like Osama Bin Laden or the motherfucker who called in the terrorist threats right here in Brisbane today.

I actually cried a bit after i read it, and its weird for me because I didnt even shed a tear when my grandma died, and that saddens me even worse, and it shows me how much of a role model he was. Now I'm gonna go try and sleep, so I'd like to give my condolences to the Guerrero family, and I'd like to thank Eddie for all the times he went out into that squared circle and busted his ass for us fans.

You'll be sorely missed Eddie, Peace Brother :y:

[Morgan]

I've only known Eddie's work in WWE, but from those few years, I've become convinced eddie was one of the only who could call themselves the complete package. A man who could make the crowd eat out of the palm of his hand, or make them hate him, but no matter what, would always have the crowds respect.It is a massive loss to the wrestling world, not to be able to see him anymore, and to the world itself to lose such a good person. My sincerest condolences go out to his family who have suffered the biggest loss of all, and that the millions of fans of Eddie guerrero support them in this sad time. Thank you eddie for everything, and all the memories you've left us.

Posted this in the book of condolence. it doesn't do justice to him, but its hard to know what to say.

[redoneja]

I'm wearing my Eddie T-shirt today, in tribute. I still can't get over this.

[Extreme Angle]

I was in school today, very depressed, my friends were laughing at me and saying am i going to buy a eddie guerrero figure and bury it.. my eyes teared up and they laughed harder, i just smiled and old them i didnt give to fucks... i still can't believe he is gone even after everything, i got to see him live in april after wm21 its the one where eddie and rey was fighting mnm and eddie wouldn't tag in... I wish me and my friend didn't boo :'(

[CSL]

<font color=white>I still can't believe it. I'm totally gutted. This won't seem real for a long time.

It seems heaven got a whole lot better

Scottsdale, eh? If I can find someone to get me there, I will go and pay my last respects. Because he sure as hell deserves at least that.

[The Naitch]

I was in school today, very depressed, my friends were laughing at me and saying am i going to buy a eddie guerrero figure and bury it.. my eyes teared up and they laughed harder

:shifty:

But yeah, this will most definitely be the most shocking moment of 2005 when they do that end of 2005 year end special or something

[CharismaInjection]

This is a really shocking time. Eddie was in his prime, how could someone die so suddenly? It makes us realize we should live every day as if it was our last.

[mrslackalack]

RIP. Tragically the top: story of 2005.:(

[mrslackalack]

The man deserves one heck of a tribute show. Have guys like Jericho, Malenko, Benoit Rey, other WWE guys guys from Japan like Liger and siblings like Hector Chavo Sr. and Chavo Jr. on it. It would be a incredible way to pay tribute with a man like Eddie.

[Dorkchop]

It's amazing reading what everyone has to say... even though pretty much everyone (including me) has said the same thing I still can't believe it. He was on top of the world. He was Eddie freaking Guerrero. He was a huge reason why people watched Smackdown. He was a huge reason why people watched wrestling. I wish Eddie could read all of this thread and see how he touched so many wretling fans. I hope, somehow, his family come accross this or any other thread in any other wrestling message board about Eddie Guerrero.

He didn't start wrestling to be loved by everyone. He did it because he loved the sport. And it was his love and passion for the sport that made everyone love him. When he was a heel you hated his guts. You hated everything about him. It's so hard to hate heels with a passion these days. Eddie had that gift to make you believe anything. If he came out to the ring saying he was a pregnant, you'd be waiting for months for him to give birth.

Benoit should wrestle for Eddie in the triple threat match and win the belt. After all Eddie was going to win the title.

I'm not looking forward to watching Raw and Smackdown. Like everyone else I'm going to cry my ass off.

[redoneja]

I don't mean to move away from paying my respects to Eddie, but has it been confirmed that the plan was for him to win the title in the Triple Threat?

[mrslackalack]

Its going to be touch to watch tonight. Plus the Bret DVD comes out tomorrow and watching that will make us relive the tragic passing of Owen as well.

[mrslackalack]

Don't know if this is already posted put this is from OWW.com

November 13, 2005: Eddie Guerrero tragically passed away at the age of 38 as a result of reported Heart Failure [Eddie RIP FanJam]..
~~~Eddie Guerrero arrived in Minneapolis for the scheduled combined RAW/SD! Television tapings at the Target Center..
~~~Eddie Guerrero was staying at the Marriott City Center hotel in downtown Minneapolis..
~~~Eddie Guerrero got an early wake-up call just after 7 a.m. and he didn't answer..
~~~Chavo Guerrero tried calling the room and also got no answer. The two had been traveling together..
~~~Several people knocked on his door after numerous attemped calls went unanswered..
~~~Security was then called and they got inside and found Eddie dead on the bathroom floor..

[Cool King]

OK, I just thought of everything that's being said about Eddie's Death and there is one this that's confusing me. This is it.

Chavo said that, Eddie, himself and another wrestler had breakfast, then Eddie went to his room after it, but he also said that Eddie missed his 7am wake up call, but how could he have missed it if he already had his breakfast? Surely, if you were having or had your breakfast, you wouldn't need a wake up call and cancel it because you would already be awake.

So that's whats confusing me.:?:

[mrslackalack]

Eddie's DVD is the top seller right now on WWE.com its a great DVD.

[Corkscrewed]

^^ Actually, that occurred to me as well. I'm thinking maybe they meant dinner the night before, or some sort of midnight breakfast.

Chavo might have been shaken up so much that he got his facts skewed.

Does anyone know if they're packaging Eddie's DVD with his "Scarface" shirt? That'd be a great deal, especially if proceeds were sent to his family.

[Cool King]

http://tenbellsalute.ytmnd.com/

[Just John]

...








It's such a shame, to hear this news, whether it was heel or face, Eddie played the part brilliantly, I heard he was a great person outsode of the ring too, I tryed to watch some tapes of his matches at wrestlemania, and just seeing his entrance, makes me stop the tape and not bother, it's very hard to watch a man entering the arena in a lowrider with a big smile on his face without thinking that he was never aware at this time he would be dead.

It's hard to see someone so alive be so dead, I was a great fan of eddie as a face, he brought charisma and happiness to his match, and looked genuinley looked happy to be entertaining the fans in the way that he did, it was his dream to wrestle, it it's such a shame to take that dream away from him in a hotel room somewhere with no warning.

The pinnacle of Eddies career was when he hit the big time and got the title and was face, and as much as it pains me to say, Eddie faded away, it's a shame he didn't get one last energy fuelled pop before he left us.

Thank you Eddie for making me dislike you and making me adore you.

Thanks for showing that you dont have to be big to get the gold

And I thank you for entertaining us, Eddie, you put the E in WWE

Ladies And Gentlemen, Eddie Guerrero...

I'm sorry dude, but I liked Eddie as well, but even I'd laugh at you for saying that. That's kinda pushing it.

Soon I was going to make my top ten stories of 2005 with the intent of putting ECW reunion shows as the number 1 story but now I think the tragic passing of Eddie has to be number 1.

[mrslackalack]

Ironically, a couple weeks ago back when my friends and I started our Fantasy NBA league we named the league Lie, Cheat and Steal after Eddies quote.

[redoneja]

I put on the 2005 Royal Rumble and the Eddie/Flair segement just came on. :(

I feel lost. :'(

[Just John]

my thoughts and prayers go to his family and friends

[Londoner]

I only just found out about this today when sky sports news reported it, wish they would do a bigger report than just a vince mcmahon statement.I still can't believe it, Eddie was my favourite wrestler.I have to watch raw live tonight even though ive got the hospital tomorrow, doubt i'll be able to sleep knowing that a tribute to Eddie is on.I was hoping he would become the World heavyweight champion soon and was really liking his current storyline,it's fitting that he won in his last match in classic Eddie Guerrero style.

RIP Eddie.

[Joey Slugs]

Surely, if you were having or had your breakfast, you wouldn't need a wake up call and cancel it because you would already be awake.

So that's whats confusing me.:?:

Chavo never said that they went for breakfast. That was from some website's original report. Chavo stated that they saw each other on the plane and once they landed they went to grab dinner. They then checked into the hotel and planned on meeting for breakfast in the morning. That's when Eddie didn't make his wake up call....

[Jalapeño]

RIP

(Not ment to be offensive)

[UmbrellaCorporation]

I challenge anyone to watch this and not get choked up


Impossible to do. That picture, coupled with that music...


I've been in shock the past few hours like many of you have, naturally. I didn't know Eddie personally, only what I saw in his performances and from his DVD and such. All I really know now is that the world has lost one great competitor and one great human being.

I couldn't say anything that hasn't already been spoken of in this thread, honestly. The thing that gets me most is that he was clean at the time. He was clean and sober for ages, only to pass on at a time when he was doing GREAT. The sky was the limit for him, and what happens? He gets taken from the fans, and more importantly, his family and friends. I can't imagine what it would be like for his wife, since I'm not married and I have no romantic attraction to anyone. But I can sympathize deeply with his children...If everyone could think of what it would be like to lose their father, and ESPECIALLY at such a young age for the children and Eddie both. It's heartbreaking.

Someone else said it best. I'd like to think that Eddie knew that he would win the belt at the tapings. In that aspect, and in MANY, MANY others, that man went out as a winner, plain and simple.

In many ways, Eddie is far better off than the rest of us now. He won't have to listen to his "critics" badmouthing him anymore (although if someone DOES at this time, it's sickening), and I'd like to believe that he lived a good life with a few bumps in the road. May God bless you and your children, Eddie. You will be missed horribly. Rest in peace to a true legend.

It has some interesting stuff, including some negative comments from a radio show.

But Test has his thought on there.

[CharismaInjection]

This case is much similar to Road Warrior Hawk's.

Hawk was also a drug addict for years, but when he finally cleaned up his act, it was too late...

[Extreme Angle]

I'm sorry dude, but I liked Eddie as well, but even I'd laugh at you for saying that. That's kinda pushing it.
wot did i say?
i don't give 2 fucks?
i went to school and one of my mates said did i bury a eddie guerrero figure... he is one of my mates that i sent a text...

[SuperSlim]

In the night sky there is always one star
One star that outhines them all
One star that is brightest
It illuminates such radiancy
You can't help but notice it

But once that star is gone
You know it
You feel it
You miss it
Knowing it won't be back.

You wish it wasn't gone
You wish it was still there
One more time
Just to see it one more time
Once more.

The memory will never be forgotten
Will always be remembered
In our eyes
In our minds
In our hearts

Eddie was that star
Taken away in his prime
Although he is not with us
He will always be remembered
Never forgotten

May you rest in peace
For your memory
Your legacy
Will never die
But will always live on.

Goodbye Eddie.

Chavo never said that they went for breakfast. That was from some website's original report. Chavo stated that they saw each other on the plane and once they landed they went to grab dinner. They then checked into the hotel and planned on meeting for breakfast in the morning. That's when Eddie didn't make his wake up call....

No, I'm pretty sure Chavo talked about himself, Eddie and another wrestler having breakfast.

I'll watch it again.

[Extreme Angle]

test's one is touching, i didn't realise how much damage a bump actualy does...

[punt]

I can't really explain why, but I never liked Eddie when he was with WCW. Over the years I have really learned to enjoy his wrestling talent and i became a big fan. I am going to miss him. God Bless.

Was pretty down today. I wore a black arm band today, in tribute to Eddie. I can't believe he's gone, I woke up this morning and imagined it was all one big dream. :'(

What a shame it's certainly gonna be weird watching wrestling and not seeing or hearing him at all. He was certainly a great star with alot of talent.

RIP Eddie:-\

[thecc]

This was taken from Jimmy Jacobs journal

A total "what the fuck" kinda day. I hate doing updates like this. But fuck. I checked my voicemail around noon and got a message from a buddy saying Eddie Guerrero died. I'm not going to pretend we were best friends, but I was fortuante enough to be around him and work with him once.

First time I met Eddie in August of 2003 at a Smackdown show in Detroit. Alex Shelley, Chris Hero and I were there working out in the ring before the show. Eddie stopped and took the time to watch us all wrestle, then to come up to us afterwards and compliment us.

Then in May of this year, I worked with him in Reading, PA. I can probably say working on WWE Smackdown with him was one of the best experiences in my life. The thing I thought was really cool about him, which I also thought was really cool about Chris Candido (God rest his soul too), was that for a guy who has been there and done that, for a man who has main evented Wrestlemania as the world heavyweight champion, he treated me as an equal. I was a 21 year old kid just happy to be getting work, and he acted as though I were on par with him. Just to show you my experience with this, not to totally kill the business, but that day when I found out I was working with Eddie, I went up to him and said "Hi. I'm Jimmy. I think we're working together tonight." The first thing Eddie did was apologize. "Jimmy. I want to apologize for the match. I would love to have a competitive match with you, but tonight this match needs to be %100 me. Please understand this is just business. I'm truly sorry, and I want to thank you for your professionalism. God willing, we'll work again under better circumstances." It really struck me that he would do that. I mean, seriously. I was happy just to have work, just to be getting paid, just to be on the show, just to be working for WWE, just to be in the ring with him, yet he was apologizing to me. As the day went on, almost every time we talked, he apologized, thanked me, and was almost trying to sell me on the fact that it'd be ok to get squashed by him, as if I was doing him a favor. Before the match, one of the agents for our match came up to me and said, "Jimmy, now, you know this is going to be a stiff match, right?" I said "Sure." But Eddie never touched me. Even on the finish when he gave me the brainbuster on the chair, he took total care of me.

So, there's my story of my experience with him.

Most users ever online was 226, Today at 11:23 PM

That's the power of Eddie Guerrero right there. :(

[KingofOldSchool]

I just want to add some other things.

I had the pleasure of being able to watch Eddie's final match live. And it will be something that will live with me forever. My final images of Eddie are of him smiling and doing his customary "Eddie Shimmie" dance while he was selling Ken kennedy's chair shot.

Eddie is someone that I looked up to, now I'm not saying he was my favorite wrestler of all time. He was one of my favorites at the present time...but I looked up to him because of what he overcame. I look at Eddie and what he's been through and I see a bit of me. Granted I never had an alcohol problem, but I've had my own personal problems that I am trying to overcome. And hearing Eddie's story makes me feel better and gives me hope.

Being a fan of pro wrestling all of my life, I never found an emotional attachment to anyone in particular. Granted I love Ric Flair, my favorite all time, but I never found an emotional attachment to him. The only two wrestlers I've ever attached myself to emotionally are Rey Mysterio Jr. and...Eddie Guerrero.

Rey is because of his size, although I'm a shade taller than him...he is proof that you don't need to be Hulk Hogan's size to be successful. And with Eddie...it's his ability to overcome his problems and become a bigger and better person because of it.

Throughout tonight's Raw, I was teary eyed...I never broke down, but it was a constant two hour eye watery ride. I never did this for any other wrestler who passed on over the years...I don't know when I'll cry over a wrestler again...hopefully not for a while. Yet, Eddie is worth my tears.

To finish, I want to be the type of human being Eddie Guerrero was.

[Crimson]

I still can't believe it I jus got home from work, turned on RAW, and then I seen Cena wearing an Eddy shirt, and the commentators talking about what he meant. I was like 'oh no..tell me their fucking around'.
It's a damn shame , he's left us too early, he was one of the best all around, and I don't know what the cause of death is , but for now that is irrelevant, just the fact that he's gone is a travesty. I missed RAW hope I can catch a replay, but i will defeniatley buy his dvd...

It's a terrible, terrible thing what has happened.

Wish the best for eddie and all his family.
- Saying goodbye to one of the greatest wrestlers of all time is hard...but its so much harder when you know he had so much more to offer!

RIP Eddie

http://www.wwe.com/inside/news/vickimessage (http://www.wwe.com/inside/news/vickimessage)

That's bullshit! The real reason they're making it private is because Vince doesn't want the fans getting too close to his 'stars'. I'll bet the damn funeral will be set up like a WWE event. They'll probably make the fans stand a mile away from the god damned funeral home so they can only see the wrestler's limos. There will probably be armed fucking security guards! The mother fucking cemetary will also be guarded, probably. This fucking sucks! It's disrespectful to the fans!

Vicky you are a bitch, and Vince, you can go to hell!

Don't you ever make another post here again.

In fact I will do my best to ensure that you don't

[Corkscrewed]

Wow, that's a new low even for you, Cerebral Assassin. Wow. Just plain unbelievable. I'm speechless. :nono: :nono:

[The Cerebral Assassin]

Say what you want, but it's true.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Say what you want, but it's true.

You daft cunt.

Have you ever thought that A. It's not like the entire goddamn WWE is going, and B. the fact that the wrestler's who will be there are going to be close friends of Eddie and his family? Funerals are for close friends and family. It is perfectly understandable that the family does not want thousands of people showing up who they don't know. Let the family mourn their loss in peace. We have Raw, we have Smackdown, we have message boards and websites that let us post our thoughts. Let the family have their funeral without second guessing them. They are suffering, and they deserve it. If you feel otherwise, you're an ignorant and utterly selfish asshole.

[Funky Fly]

Ok, Cerebral Assassin, cut that shit out. The family of the deceased have a right to have a private funeral. Have some fucking respect.

Now you've been warned. Any more, and you're banned.

[The Cerebral Assassin]

You daft cunt.

If you feel otherwise, you're an ignorant and utterly selfish asshole.

Oh, real nice. Turn this thread into a flame war why don't you? I said what I said because I believe it's a slap on the face to be shut out. It's as if we, the public, are considered dirt by the celebrities.

[Funky Fly]

How about this? You're neither a close friend nor a relative. Do you know how much more it would cost them to accomodate thousands of people they don't even know? All the security and whatnot they would have to pay for? Or perhaps they'd rather not have to deal with thousands of people gawking at Eddie's children wile their mother has to explain to a 3 year old that daddy's dead?

CUT IT OUT.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Oh, real nice. Turn this thread into a flame war why don't you? I said what I said because I believe it's a slap on the face to be shut out. It's as if we, the public, are considered dirt by the celebrities.

Hi, I don't think people are going to see me as the bad guy here. I'm not the one calling Vince a bitch and saying he should burn in hell because Eddie's family wants a private funeral. Like any other family, Eddie's has a right to a private funeral. Private meaning the public is in fact shutout. Regular schmoes have that right, so why shouldn't Eddie's family? The fans have had their chance to mourn, let the family have theirs. You're trying to take that right away from the family, and that is selfish. How can you not see that?

[Corkscrewed]

It's respecting PRIVACY. As nice of a gesture in theory as making this public would be, it would turn into a media circus. Think of how his daughters would feel, being subjected to the public microscope while they are still deeply in morning. Maybe they'll have a public memorial service, but even if they don't, how is that your fault? You're tainted by this belief that they're spoiled celebrities acting like the world owes them a silver platter, when this is clearly not the case.

Those kids have already been traumatized enough by losing their dad, having thousands of people show up, however good the intention may be, could very well overwhelm them. They're still kids. Shaul's not even 15 yet, right? She hasn't even celebrated her quinciera. Just because you feel a certain way doesn't mean that applies to everyone else.

It's certainly natural to react selfishly in grief and hope for certain things, because that's what mourning will bring, but to take it this far is just appalling.


I also find it ironic that you accuse others of starting a flame war when you are the one who FIRST posted the inciteful comments. "Fuck you Vicki?" You are a pathetic hypocrite, no better than that ESPN Radio cronie who spouted off on a matter he knew practically nothing of.

I've seen many wrestlers come and go, but Eddie's passing is eating at me more than I thought it would. It's getting to me more than any other loss in the wrestling world has. I thought I'd just break down in tears once, and get over it.
This is getting to me, and I'm just a fan. I'm going to pray for Eddie's soul, for his family, and for his friends...

Oh, Cerebral Assasin, if you'd be so kind as to fuck off that'd be great. It's already been said that if you're not a friend or family you shouldn't be there. The ones were were close to Eddie needs their time. It's not a matter of celebs trying to put up a border between "us" and "them." It's respect.

[Dave Youell]

It's near impossible for Celebrities to have public funerals, there would be waaaaay too many people going. Plus none of us knew him, NONE OF US! Unless you personally knew Eddie you have no right to be there. If you are invited sure, but that's the family's choice

[The Gooch]

I'm still numb. I was going to try and post something yesterday when I read the news, but I couldn't. I appreciate the WWE doing the best they could given the short time frame with a tribute show to Eddie. I taped the RAW and went to bed after the Chris Benoit interview, I just couldn't take anymore. Hopefully with time I can go back and watch the tape and celebrate Eddie's life without being mad at how cruel life often is.

I will not pretend to write words to describe how great Eddie was as my literary skills are way too deficient in comparison the the smiles and cheers Eddie brought to me every week. I forget which poster mentioned Eddie being the total package. No description can be more accurate. Often the Marks and IWC are on different pages when it comes to its love of certain wrestlers. However, there is no doubt that both types of fans loved Eddie.

[TerranRich]

One of the guys at my office, taking lunch orders, casually said to me "Hey, I heard one of your wrestling guys died the other day. Kinda tragic. See what steroids and cocaine'll do to ya?"

I just gave him my money for the lunch order and looked away.

[Just John]

..Im not even gonna comment on that

[TerranRich]

It's just amazing looking at it from a non-wrestling fan point-of-view. It's just another death. Since it was "only" a wrestler, it doesn't really matter in the real world to them. I could've gone on about how he was an inspiration to recovering addicts and to wrestling fans in general, but he wouldn't have understood, sadly.

TerranRich then began to slam his fist into his hand making the sound of fist hitting flesh. "NO! STOP!!! STOP HITTING ME!!!" TerranRich screams. Ignorant Guy looks confused and starts to back away. TerranRich then drops to the floor and holds a hand over one side of his face just in time for a few co-workers to come around the corner to see what's going on. With a look of terror TerranRich points at Ignorant Guy from the ground with his free hand and says, "KEEP HIM AWAY FROM ME!! HE'S CRAZY!!"

"I didn't do anything!" Ignorant Guy exclaims.

"I WAS JUST SITTING HERE WORKING AND HE JUST STARTED PUNCHING ME!!!" TerranRich yells with a trembling voice.

"I'm calling security," one of the co-workers states.

"But I didn't do anything!" screams Ignorant Guy starting to lose his cool.

With in minutes two security guards show up and escort Ignorant Guy from the building. TerranRich settles back into his desk and with a smile on his face he whispers, "That's for you, Eddie."

Vickie Guerrero speaks on Eddie's autopsy report
Nov. 15, 2005

After the untimely passing of Eddie Guerrero, WWE and the entire sports-entertainment community is still reeling from the devastating loss of a champion. The initial autopsy reports on Guerrero have come in. WWE.com spoke with Eddie’s widow, Vickie Guerrero, earlier today.

“It was heart failure. It was from his past – the drinking and the drug abuse. They found signs of heart disease. She (the examiner) said that the blood vessels were very worn and narrow, and that just showed all the abuse from the scheduling of work and his past. And Eddie just worked out like crazy all the time. It made his heart grow bigger and work harder and the vessels were getting smaller, and that’s what caused the heart failure. He went into a deep sleep.

As soon as they saw his heart, they saw the lining of his heart already had the heart disease. There was no trauma, and Eddie hadn’t hurt himself in any way. It answered a lot of questions. I knew Eddie wasn’t feeling very good for the last week. He was home and kept saying he wasn’t feeling good and we thought it was just “road tired.” So we thought he just had to rest. It answered a lot of my questions, too, because he was just so exhausted. She said it was normal because the heart was working so hard.

When he didn’t call me last night and the night before I knew it was for real, because he would call me every night. I miss his phone calls. I cried through the whole thing (last night).

I loved his laugh. His laugh was the best.

We just celebrated his four-year sobriety last Thursday. We just thought we had life by the handful. We thought we had it all figured out. He worked so hard to make a better life for us.

I’m just overwhelmed by how people are coming out. It’s touched my heart a lot.

Everybody was just in awe last night in how beautifully everything was put together.

All my life was wrestling. All he did was take care of them and live for that. And I don’t know what to do now.”

[RGWhat316]

Death hasn't seemed to hit me very hard, mainly due to the fact that I have been fortunate and only lost two members of my family, and they were both older grandparents. But this will really hit me when I go to Survivor Series. Considering that Eddie has already been announced for the show, when he doesn't show up, it will really hit me then. I'm gonna try to take a sign to show my respect for Eddie.
