What made Eddie Guererro so great?

[Autobahn]

It was 7 years ago recently since he passed away, and I have to admit, the guy was a gifted wrestler but there was something about him that made him a special wrestler. I can't put my finger on what his appeal was that made me like and respect him so much...maybe because his charisma showed a lot more to me during the 'lie, cheat steal' period, or just how much the wrestling world is missing someone like him in this business.

What is it that makes him that special? I know after death some people make more of a big deal of a person compared to when they are alive, but with Eddie I have no doubt it is well and truly justified.
