Eddie seemed to be happy when he was in the Ring. God bless his soul, and may he be at peace. Rest In Peace Eddie, you will be missed.
From: “Cardone, Nelson PO”
I must say that hearing the news was a huge shock. The wrestling community surely has lost a great athlete and person. I can only imagine how the wrestlers feel backstage. My heart goes out to Eddies wife, kids and the rest of his family through this troubled time. I have seen Eddie in person on many occasions and he always put on an outstanding match every time. If it was not the best match that night it was one of the best hands down. We will always remember Eddie as not only do me and my girlfriend mourn Eddie but every wrestling fan as well as everyone else in the wrestling community. Never forget LATINO HEAT.
To Eddie – Thank you. Thank you for giving us something to cheer about. Thank you for being human. Now you rest in a place where nothing can get to you. I think I speak on behalf of everyone that we look forward to seeing you when our time comes. Stay smiling for we will never forget…LATINO HEAT. Rest in Peace forever.
Your fan,

Goodbye, Eddie. You’re an inspiration to all aspiring wrestlers and fans. Whereas other superstars simply beat the odds inside the ring, you did it in unison with beating them on the outside. We will miss you.

Eddie was always one of my favorite wrestlers. Eddie helped me live a dream of being on WWE television. At the Rochester taping of Smackdown! on July 26, 2005, Eddie broke the news that he was Dominick’s “real father,” sending Dominick running out of the arena. I was in the front row and could be seen standing up with my camera phone the whole time he ran out, as him and Rey passed right by me. The whole time Eddie read chapter 1 of his bedtime story I was chanting for him, and even got some good Eddie chants going even though he was an obvious heel.
From: “JASON BURKE”
EDDIE WAS A GREAT WRESTLER AND A REALLY NICE PERSON. HE WAS ONE OF THE FEW WRESTLERS THAT WOULD ACTUALLY INTERACT WITH THE FANS ON THE SIDE RAILS OF HOUSE SHOWS AND I WAS ONE OF THE LUCKY ONES THAT GOT TO SHAKE HIS HAND AND HAVE A QUICK WORD WITH HIM AND I THOUGHT HE WAS JUST GREAT.

Eddie Guerrero was a great guy, I watched him since his WCW days. He did have some things to deal with, but nonetheless overcame what most succumb too. I am very happy that the WWE made it possible for him to be WWE Champion before his untimely demise. Eddie you will always be remembered by your family, friends, and millions of fans that you touched every week. Rest in Peace my friend.

I had the fortunate pleasure of being able to see Eddie Guerrero at a
live event
at the North Charleston Coliseum and even though he was playing a
“Heel” in his
match against Batista, you couldn’t help but cheer for his athleticism,
his
charisma, and his ability to “get over” with the crowd. He wasn’t the
biggest
guy in the WWE, but you weren’t ever going to find a heart and passion
for the
business bigger than his. The WWE lost a legend on Sunday. Smackdown
will not
be the same and my sympathies go out to the entire Guerrero family.
RIP Eddie

Here is a poem I wrote to try and express my feelings for Eddie 🙁
He is truly missed and will never be forgotten.
I don’t know what to say
There are no words that can express
The pain and sorrow felt today
And the cold, dark emptiness
You left so us suddenly
It was unexpected and it hit me hard
We have to go on without you now
I know that it’s going to be hard
You were always there entertaining
Providing the laughs and even a few tears
I want to take the time to thank you
For the memories you gave us over the years
I’ll miss you Eddie and it hurts a lot
It’s like there’s a hole inside of me
A part of me has been ripped out
My heart goes out to your family
The talent you possessed was endless
That was clear to anyone with a brain
I can’t help but feel torn apart
Knowing I’ll never see you again
You were an inspiration to many
You were definitely a hero to me
The personal demons, you fought them all
And became the best you could be
For the obstacles you overcame
You have my admiration and respect
We’ll never see you again in this life
But maybe in the next?
Maybe our paths will cross again
I can only hope and pray
That you know how much you were loved
And that I’ll see you again some day
You will be sorely missed Eddie
The whole world loved you so much
I hope you understood
How many lives you touched
I’m glad I had the opportunity
To see you and Chavo perform together
And I speak for every fan when I say
The flame of Latino Heat will continue to burn forever
I end this poem now
As the tears again begin to flow
It’s time for us to say goodbye
Now we have to let you go

Hi, I live in Watford (a small town in England), but news of Eddie’s untimely death filtered through round here like wildfire yesterday.
I cannot truely put into words the emotions I felt when I heard the news. It was a complete bolt out of the blue, and something I never saw coming. Eddie was one of the most charasmatic and most natural characters in recent WWE, and always seemed to have a smile on his face.
He beat everything life put in front of him, which is an inspiration for me, and and inspiration for millions of people around the world.
God Bless you, Eddie.
From: “Robert Yrlas” Eddie was an awesome wrestler and forever will be one of the greats. It
is just so weird how I feel about this considering I didn’t even know
him. I met him one time at an event and he was such an awesome person
and he took time to autograph and take pictures with all of his fans.
It
is kind of wierd cause we all just saw him wrestle on Friday. Eddie
will
be missed. I will pray for him and his family.

I was just listening to a song called ‘Gone To Soon’ By Michael Jackson
and
it was all to relevant to appropriate to what I was feeling.
It is about 26 Hours after I learned of Eddie’s passing and I still
cant
believe it every time I see the WWE.com homepage. I was watching some
of the
Eddie video’s on WWE.com and I honestly could not stop crying because I
saw
in a different light how good he was and entertaining and I never saw
it
that way until after yesterday. Eddie passing so suddenly has had a
positive
impact on my own life as was mentioned in the forums and I realise now
that
life is too short and you must treat everyday as your last.

It’s a damn tragedy. A man haunted by gosts in his personal life but loved by millions for his great skill and charisma. A true master of the ring, and a fantastic entertainer. He got to see his kids, managed to overcome his addictions and he earned the heading of World Champion before his tagic passing. We loved him for what he did and how he did it. It’s a loss the wrestling world wont ever be able to overcome. We love ya Eddie. Viva la Raza!

It is a shame what happens when a heroe dies. The
things that are out of touch appear in front of your
face. I have a friend that was addicted to pain
killers, after seeing the Eddie Guerrero DVD he
stopped “cold turkey,” Eddie Guerrero was a
inspiration to wrestling fans and people trying to
escape the devil that is pain killers and alchohol.
Eddie Guerrero was one of the finest wrestlers to ever
step foot in the ring. I think that the wrestling
industry will forever be changed due to his untimely
death. In closing I would just like to wish the
friends, fans, and family of Eddie Guerrero my
condolences.
Forever a fan,

I’m pretty sure that your probably be getting tons of e-mail about eddie guerrero articles to day, but i just wanted to let u know that there’s an article in the el paso times, also this has been top story news on all the local news stations. even though, thats already been a day since this happened, im still in shock, i still can’t believe that this actually happening. I should be here instead writing about how on this monday morning, about how it’s so wonderful that they’re finally giving eddie guerrero another run with the tilte, life works in weird ways. I know everyone has been saying this, its so true, he was taken from too soon, but now we know that he’s in a better place, i wish that his wife and kids get through this real emotional pain. well, now Eddie Guerrero can lie, cheat, and steal in heaven. we love u eddie!!! Albert Cerda
From: “Roger Fence”
I am from El Paso,TX and I practically grew up admiring this man since
I can remember. He is the pride of our small nice city. He showed us what
hard work and dedication can truly get you. He didn’t get to where he was
by backstage politics or kissing ass but by working his ass off and going
out there day in and day out with the intent to steal the show. All he
ever wanted was to deliver a good show for the people who paid their hard
earned cash to see him. He is one of the few people I truly looked up to and
this has just been a very sad day for me. I got to train with his Uncle
here in El Paso and they are just an awesome wrestling family. He’s one of the
reasons why I want to become a wrestler and why I wrestled in high school.
I want to be like him and wish I can accomplish at least a portion of what
he did. I only regret not getting to meet him because I wish I could have
let him know how much he has meant to me. I never met him, but he is one of
the few reasons why I keep moving toward my goals and I now attend the University of Texas at Austin. I just hope he has inspired others and all I
can say in a selfishb way is that I will truly miss him. Everyone in
El Paso knows a Guerrero or at least knows who they are and he has always been looked at as the guy who made it. The guy who overcame obstacles and
went against a system that wasn’t set up for him and he accomplished so much.
I’m gonna miss ya Eddie, and this one’s for u buddy:) Viva La Raza!

Words cant express the sadness that we have all felt after hearing about the tragic loss of Eddie Guerrero.From the bottom of my heart, I would like to send my condolences to the whole Guerrero family, and friends. He will be truely missed.
I think that Eddie is someone who we can all look up to. He proved that no matter how bad things can be, you can turn things around and make change. The way he turned his whole life around to become the WWE champion, and have a loving family, and so many friends truely shows that Eddie was a class act, and is someone who I will remember as a class act, and as a champion. Like Batista said, my one comfort is knowing that Eddie is at peace, and is happy. He is in good hands.Godspeed Eddie, until we meet again, thank you for the years of joy, amazing wrestling, and for proving what an amazing man you really were. Thanks also to www.thewrestlinganswer.com for the chance for me to speak this out. It means alot.

Eddie Guerrero
Not since Owen Hart has a wrestler dying hit me so hard. After posting
my Rajah TV recaps I checked the internet for the daily wrestling news and
couldn’t believe it when I saw the headline. I thought there was a
mistake, I begged it to be a mistake but it was all very surreal. It was made
even more sad when I was reminded of the similarities with Brian Pillman’s
circumstances. I’ve never met Eddie on a personal level but have had the
pleasure of watching him perform live a handful of times. The very
first live event I went to Eddie was in the first match defending his US
Title against Rhyno and everyone loved watching him perform including me. He
was so good to watch and he possessed an aura of greatness like no other. I
have a lot of respect for Eddie as a man and a performer who had just passed
four years of sobriety in a profession where he faced his addictions and
beat them on a daily basis. Eddie went through a lot of personal pain and
torment to entertain us the fans and he gave his life literally to us. At 38
Eddie you have been taken away from us far too soon. I will watch Raw and
SmackDown! with a tear in my eye but am safe in the knowledge that you will
be watching in that big lowrider in the sky. Thank you for so many
memories Eddie. RIP. My sympathy goes out to your family.
Sincerely
Shaun Best

I am writing to express mine and my family sadness over the loss of Eddie Guerrero. My family and I attended the Supershow in Minneapolis, MN and we’re heartbroken to hear the news when we arrived at the Target Center. Many tears were shed over this tragic loss. Being Latinos ourselves, Latino pride runs very high in our family. We were all very proud of the accomplishments of the entire Guerrero family and what they had acchieved. My son is 9 years old and it is his lifelong wish to become a famous WWE wrestler, much like Eddie. I hope that as he accomplishes his goal, that he will always remember the legacy that Eddie has left behind. Our love, prayers and good wishes go out to Vicky, the three girls and the rest of the Guerrero family. As Christians ourselves, we can be comforted knowing that he’s with the Lord now. Take care. Love, Derek, Michelle and Brandon Delgado and Kim Valentin.

From: “Tamara Henne” When I first read that Eddie has passed away, I was shocked. I have been watching wrestling since I was a baby, and he has alwayz been one of my favorite wrestlers. He was a great wrestler, and you could see the love for the business in his eyes everytime he steped into the ring. Its sad that a guy that has survived everything that life has thrown at him, passed away just like that. Eddie, Im gonna miss you, and its gonna be really hard to turn on SD! and not see you there. My prayers go to you and your family. RIP Eddie.

A tribute to a wrestler who was the greatest wrestler that ever lived , Eddie was the type of guy who could make me laugh every night and made every wrestler look good every single night . It’s a shame that he held the world title only once he should have had the title multiple times he was THE GAME not that other guy who shall remain nameless in this article .Eddie from your biggest fan without you SMACKDOWN JUST WENT DOWN THE TOILET.
From: [email protected]
I’m truly saddened by the fact that Eddie Guerrero passed away. I was a huge fan of his and he was truly a great worker in business where no matter where he worked and the man is truly a legend. Not only has the WWE lost a great wrestler but the world lost a great man. I feel like someone close has gone and its very hard to take. This is even made worse by the fact that he was clean for 4 years but I guess the abuse caught up with him in the end. I give my condolences to his family and hope that he has gone to a better place. Thanx Eddie for all the memories. RIP.
From: “Steve Ketterer”
I’ve been watching wrestling, since i was about 5. Eddie Guerrero has always been there. Even at such a young age, I had respect for what he did. I was always a respectfal fan, and liked who i did based on ability, and not attitude. Even though they made Guerrero a heal, which he did right, I always looked forward to his matches. I’ve lost track of the time I was laughing at Eddie’s anticats in and out of matches. GIven, since alot of time has passed, it is becoming harder to recall alot of his matches, but I always remember that they were great. He has had several great fueds, and was one of WCW’s top competetors. I do recall some of the LWO segments, and recall those being golden.
I also remember Guerrero’s early days in the WWF(E). I don’t think any other competitor could have such rememberly segments with Chyna. Those were simply priceless. It just sucks that he, like alot of talent, appeared to be underutilized in the WWE.
It takes alot of talent to accomplish what he has done. He was a master in the ring and on the mic. His talent is simply unbelivable, and it sucks that he was taken so soon. Guerrero easly had several more years of wrestling in him. Given, many say you only have one time where you are at your prime, but Guerrero disproved this. He was at the top of his game back in WCW, but he was easily back up to that point over the past year or so.
Latino Heat will live on in our memories, and i hope i can be half as good as Guerrero in my wrestling career.
From: “Mike Arienti”
Eddie Guerrero’s sudden passing has left us all in shock. The last few years have been horrible for wrestling as far as deaths go. However, Eddie may have taught us all more than we learn in schhol. He taught us what dedication is, he taught us what family is, he taught us what entertaining is, and most of all, he taught us to have passion and love for those things we care about. We aren’t promised a tomorrow, and had Eddie been given one more day, I am sure he would have spent it as vicariously as the rest of them. Eddie was a winner – in the ring and in life. True he had his demons, but as he did so often in the ring, he overcame and pressed on.
November 13, 2005 will forever mark the passing of Eddie Guerrero the decent Christian man, husband, father, friend, cousin, uncle and wrestling superstar who stole our attention and our hearts in so many ways.
Vaya con Dios, Eddie! You will be missed!
From: “stuart mellor”
Id just like to say how shocked i was when i heard the news about eddie
passing away. I know everybody has been terribly shocked by this news and
however sad i feel, my heart goes out to all of the Guerrero family,
and anyone who knew him really well.
As a mark of respect to the late Eddie Guerrero i have scraped my
current college project which i have been working on for two months, and am now
going to be compiling an Eddie Tribute montage to show my respects for
such a great man.
I think one of the reasons it came as a blow to many people is because
of how young Eddie was, at 38 i couldnt believe it when i heard and
initially questioned the reliablity of the story, and then it really just hit me
and i couldnt believe it.
Never again will we see the Three – Amigos or the 5 Star, or his
cheekyness in lieing, cheating and stealing a victory. And no more low riders. Im
getting worked up just thinking about all of this, its very sad, its going
to be so hard making a montage.
Eddie i love you and wish you were still with us right now,

From: “Dave Ferla”
They say when one door closes, another one opens. Quite frankly I just want the one that closed to reopen itself. Losing Eddie Guerrero is something thats too hard to comprehend. Upon hearing the news, I’ll man up to it, I cried. You never expect to lose someone like him at such a time. 38 years old. 3 kids and a wife. This was a man. He was putting food on the table and taking care of his family and even if you dont like wrestling or him, you have to respect that. Eddie was a man who could make you hate him or love him but no matter what you always respected the fact that he made the attempt to turn his life around and make it better. Being taken from everyone seems like a big, cruel joke. Im still waiting to read the headline “Wrestler Fakes Death” but I know it will never happen. He gave us many memories and showed that its not the size of the dog in the fight, its the size of the fight in the dog. God bless you Eddie Guerrero. Thank you for everything you gave us. You will be deeply missed and will forever be loved by myself and the rest of the wrestling world. Here’s to you main eventing in Heaven my friend. Viva La Raza mi amigo.
From: “jonnie sam”
I have been a wrestling fan for over 24 years and very few wrestlers have ever been able to keep me entertained as eddie. Not only would he be able to wrestle at the highest quality with any oppenant he would just be able to make you care about him and his match. Even when he was a “heel” you were hard pressed to cheer against him, and that is saying alot. Every wrestling show I watch from here on out will feel just a little less special knowing that eddie won’t be there. Eddie it’s been a pleasure and i hope to see you agin one day when my time is done on this planet. Thank You.

I was shocked and saddened to hear of the passing of Eddie Guerrero. I
always enjoyed watching him wrestle, from his days at WCW to jut last
week. I thought his recent push was great; my thoughts were, put him
backin the spot light where he belongs.
I loved his mic work and his promos – he pulled off his heel turns as
wellas anybody in the business and was always extremely entertaining. I
wouldfind myself laughing out loud at some of the thing he had to say. He
wasawesome.
Right now my thoughts are with his wife and children, God bless them
allduring this very difficult time; I know they are missing a very great man.

And when I saw the news of Eddie’s passing it shocked me and my friends. Eddie was a great performer love the matches that he had with Rey Mysterio in WCW and the WWE they where some great matches. Eddie will be missed. My heart goes out to the Guerrero family. RIP Eddie we love yah!.

First and foremost i want to express my deepest condolences to eddie’s family. As a fan of the wwe the thing i will remember most about eddie is his passion for the business and the fans. i was really devastated and shocked when i first heard the news and i can’t begin to imagine what the guererro family is going through. The thing most i am going to miss about eddie is his ability to entertain the fans, he was one of the best if not the best at entertaining. My thoughts and prayers are with eddies family.

This is a huge blow to wrestling and life in general, Eddie was a huge role model for me and a big inspiration to people who are going through or have gone through what Eddie did with his addiction, I can’t believe this has happened, I still thinking that I’ll tune into Raw and Smackdown! and he will be there, performing for all of us. I can’t believe how his family must fill and his 2 year old who will never know her daddy. If I were ever to get into wrestling Eddie Guerrero would one of the people I would want to have a match with. He will be sorely missed by all of us.
God Bless You Eddie, and your family and your friends. I will miss you!

This morning, when I was online, I was on my myspace webpage, and I found Daniel Puder post about Eddie Guerrero, and I thought it was a joke. But when I went elsewhere, and on Prowrestling.com, it was reveal that Eddie Guerrero had passed away. I was in shocked, and choked up when I found out about this news. My first thought was, “What happen?! and Why?! My emotions was running high, and I was almost in tears.
Then I went to wwe.com and it was all there. News, conferences, videos, and everything on wwe.com was about the loss of Eddie Guerrero. He was truly a great man, and very inspirational to many of us. Some us have gone through what he have gone through, and being able to overcome the odds, and demons that is in our lives. He made me and millions of fans laugh, cry, angry, and many other emotions that went along with the character that he play. I was a fan of his from the days of WCW, and how his style made me watch wrestling even more.
From the time that he left, WCW to WWE, I knew he would have a great career here because of all things WCW didn’t want Eddie or the younger talent to do. When he came to WWE, he was doing a great job, and deserving the fame that he deserve. From the time he came up with the Lie, Cheat, and Steal gimmick, it brought me some life and joy to see. It was one of those funny things that is needed in WWE. He made me laugh so much, that I couldn’t get enough of him. He is truly the man of the century, and he is sure will be missed. R.I.P Eddie Guerrero, and long live the memory of Latino Heat!

I was shocked, like everyone else to find out about Eddie’s passing. Eddie was very inspirational, and very talented in the ring. He will be missed. And I will keep you and your family in my prayers and thoughts. If I’ve learned one thing from this, it is that you are never guaranteed another day. Rest in peace Eddie. I will miss you.

From: “Paquin, Douglas”
I saw Eddie live this past Monday (11/7/05) at a Live SmackDown event, I got to pat his back and everything (as childish as it sounds) he looked great, it was a 3-way with Batista & Orton, I took some pictures in this match. Not knowing that this would be the last time I would see him. This was my youngest son’s first Live event, and he is a fan of Eddie also. I don’t know how to explain to him that when we watch RAW tonight and they do their Dedication that Eddie is gone. He is still young and won’t understand that it isn’t part of the show. After all he had been through in his life, this is extremely sad that at one of the best times of his life and career he is taken away from us. I pray for Eddie’s family & hope that they make it through this tough time. Incidentally my favorite incarnation of Eddie’s Character would be the Latino Heat era with Chyna. Nonetheless he was still entertaining no matter what his current character/storyline called for.
Rest In Peace Eddie, and God Bless.

Eddie Guerrero was a great wrestler and human being, his life was taken
away from him at such a young age. If i was so sad that i actually cried
after hearing the news, i can’t imagine how his relatives and close friends
must feel. At least he died while living the life he always dreamt of, he
will be greatly missed.

When I think that Eddie has past away I still can’t believe it. He was an awesome performer in the ring, and I am not just saying that because of the what has happen. Before WrestleMania 21 one of the matches I was looking forward to was Eddie Vs Rey. After watching the match I wasn’t disappointed.
With that being said, I do think Eddie death was due to steroid use. I maybe wrong with the results of the autopsy still pending but, all one has to do is look at his body. He had a great body, which doesn’t necessarily mean he was using steroids, but look at all the acne he has on his back. Go back and watch Eddie Vs. Brock. he had zits covering his back and shoulders. You can also look it his match at Wrestlemania 21. You will see how bad his acne is on his back.
I know for the next week we will all heard how he was sober for 4 years and how he changed his life. Certainly he did change his life for the better, but for a lot of people, rather in his family and most definitely WWE won’t admit or specify that he was drug free from everything but steroids. In a business were your body image is a determining factor of our success It is easy to get hooked. I cant remember the last time WWE had a champion that was less than 210 pounds. And lets face it most of us won’t be as interested in the WWE if the had an average looking champion. which explains a lot considering both champions have tremendous physiques.

Eddie Guerrero is a prime example that life is short and in a blink of an eye, someone sitting next to you can be gone tomorrow. Eddie Guerrero ate, sleeped and loved profesional wrestling. Hopefully he left knowing that he has fulfilled all he has done in the world of wrestling, just like all the legends that had pastaway in this business, Eddie Guerrero will be the ones truly missed.
God Bless Him

Hi, My name is Rodney Davis, I am a 20 year old college student from
St. Louis, MO. Bottom Line, I am a wrestling fan, first and foremost, not
to mention a huge Eddie Guerrero fan. I been a fan of the business for
about 18 years and have been a part of many exciting times, as well as
many tragic times. Certainly the loss of someone, with the magnitude of
Eddie Guerrero fits right up there with losses such as Owen Hart,
Yokozuna, Rick Rude, Curt Henning, etc. What you did for this business will
never be forgotten Eduardo. I loved your ability in the ring, and I
certainly loved you as a person. I say to your wife, children, family and
WWE family thank you for the memories, and to all of you pray during
this time and continue to pray because as a Christian I know first hand
our lord and savior Jesus Christ can make a way out of no way as you
deal with this rough time. I’ll miss you Mr. Eduardo Guerrero. I love you
all, GOD BLESS!

This will be one of a million emails and messages dedicated to Eddie,
as this is the most shocking news i belive since Owen Harts death. But as
a fan, i would like to say thank-you to Eddie for all of the great
matches and memories that you have left the WWE, WCW and ECW and its fans. Without
doubt, you are one of the greatest performers in the history of the
business, but i dont ever feel as if you were used to your maximum
potential. The Wrestlemania XX moment with you and Chris Benoit will be
remembered forever. And so will you Eddie. I never did meet you, but one day
i hope we can. Take a seat ringside and watch the action from the best seats
in the house. You will be missed more than myself or anyone else is able to
explain. Good Night Eddie. The Wrestling World will never ever forget you, you truly are one of the greatest of all time.
Shine down on us all Eddie and Rest In Peace.
From: “ant edge”
I could not believe what I was reading this morning. I had checked straight away to check how Christian had gone on in his debut at TNA. However, the big story was something so tragic there was no words. It took me back 6 years ago when Owen Hart passed away. That choked me up and this will be no different when I see the tribute shows. You watch someone every week and they become part of your life. That may sound a bit exaggerated but its true. When you loose them its a sad day. This is what it is. A sad day in wrestling.
Eddie had gone through so much in his life and we all know what had happened. In the past few years he had gotten himself back on the right track. I didnt know him, but the way he was. He was out there every week and loving it. He was a guy that gave 110% but did it so people would go home happy. It was something else to see Eddie become world champion last year. After all he had been through he never imagined he would make it to that level. He did and thank god he did. He deserved it.
So I want to say all these words but there isn’t one to give. Its a case of taking in the best memories of him and making us all smile. Thats the one thing that Eddie did the best. He made us all smile. Eddie will never be forgtten. Thoughts are with everyone close to him. We’ll miss you.

Eddie Gurrero is one of the most dedicated wrestlers and people that I loved to watch on T.V. I loved how he handles things in the ring, and “outside the ring” (dealing with things in his personal life). I’m very sad that his life had to end this way especially since he’s still young. I send my prayers to the WWE, the Gurrero family, his friends, and everybody that loved him.
From: [email protected]
I’m still in total shock over this very sudden and tragic loss of one of the all time great performers, not just in the WWE but in this entire business. I still can’t believe Eddie has gone, especially so young and when his performances were right at the top of this game, but he’ll most definitely never be forgotten.
He’ll forever be in my heart as a wrestling fan, as i’m sure he will be in every other wrestling fan across the world. And that will carry his legacy as long as this business shall live. I’m just glad i had the privilege of watching you live in action, one of my biggest highlights as a wrestling fan.
God bless all his family and close friends in these sad sad days.
I love you Eddie and i’ll always remember you, may you rest in peace.

I loved watching Eddie. He always had a good time in the ring entertaining fans like myself. I got to see him live once or twice. One time I remember was at Judgment Day 2003. watching live was awesome. Eddie was in a tag team ladder match for the tag team titles. That night was one of the best nights in my life. Eddie puts on one heck of a show, win or lose. I will miss his lyin’, cheatin’ and stealin’. Eddie, you were the best, I’m gonna miss you. I hope to see you one day. Until that day, viva la raza homes.
I’d like to send my condolences to the Guerrero family. You are in my thoughts and prayers. God bless.

I have so many wonderful memories of Eddie Im also lucky enough to have met him 1 week ago today . My first and sadly my last time of being in the presence of such greatness. Last week in Lexington after the main event of Batista,Eddie & Randy. Eddie said they couldnt leave Lexington without having some fun , which he and Batista danced for us in the ring, classic Eddie…it still brings a smile to my face in such a sad time. When he and Batista got out of the ring I yelled I love you Eddie (i was ringside) which made him turn around and smile at me and said I love you too mami. Im so happy to have finally met him , He was not just another wrestler on television to me he felt and was to me my Uncle Eddie .
¡Véale en la próxima vida, mi amigo!

Words can’t really describe how shocked and hurt I am that Eddie
Guerrero is no longer with us. As a life long wrestling fan, it hurts to see anyone
I’ve admired for so long pass away. Eddie has been one of my favorites for
years now. His in-ring celebration with Chris Benoit at Wrestlemania XX is
still and will always be one of my favorite wrestling moments. He was
certainly one of the very best at what he did, at being a complete wrestler and
entertainer. He could make us laugh, cheer, boo, even cry and he could do it
all while wrestling an amazing match. I wish I could have gotten to meet
him, I did get to see him wrestle at the one WWE House Show I’ve been to and I was so excited about seeing him that night. I offer sincere condolenses
for Eddie’s family and friends and his fans will never, ever forget him.
Rest in peace Eddie, we love you.

Eddie was an incredible performer, of whom i loved to watch every week. I don’t think his charisma can be touched by anyone in the locker rooms today. I’ve followed Eddie’s career since his ECW days, and onto WCW with the LWO, and onto WWE current. No matter Eddie being a heel or face, he could get the crowd to pop. He could make you angry, smile, laugh….all at the same time. I will never forget Eddie and the impact he’s had in the business of Sports Entertainment. Everytime he performed, he looked like he was having a blast, and THAT’S what it’s all about in this world. I wish his family and colleagues the best on their great loss. Chavo, start hitting those frog splashes in memory of Eddie!

Eddie was one of the few superstars that I really had a chance to talk to and get to know. He became a good friend of mine, and I loved being able to visit with him when he was in my home town. I myself am aspiring to be a profesional wrestler. To be exact… it was his words that made me decide to go ahead and go forward with it.. “If you work hard, and truely deep down in your heart want it… ANYTHING can happen.” And, I’m taking those words straight to the WLW Wrestling Academy in Eldon, Missouri to begin my wrestling training next summer under the instruction of WWE Legend and Hall of Fammer Harley Race. Eddie… I love you man… you inspired me to be the man I have wanted to be since I was a little kid watching WCW and the old WWF. I am going to dedicate this to you.

My name is Joe maley from Cincinnati, OH. I’ve been a huge wrestling fan since around 1993, and Eddie has always been one of my favorites. The very first ECW match I ever saw was the infamous Eddie-Dean Malenko match, and I was hooked from that point on. I always prefered Eddie as a heel, and I think the matches he and RVD put on were some of the best in WWE history. Just imagine the matches he and Owen are putting on in that ring in the sky right now. Rest in peace Eddie, we’ll never forget you.

I just cannot believe what is happening. I cannot believe he is gone and my heart has grown a little darker knowing that once again a good man was taken. I cannot lie and say that my sadness is surpassed by my anger because it isn’t. This is one of those times where I just don’t know why Eddy Guerrero died or why a God in Heaven would allow a man like Eddy to pass on. It’s hard to see through the tears. My deepest condolences go out to everybody affected by this loss, this cosmic travesty. My thoughts will be with Vickie and the kids, the entire Guerrero family and all the people Guerrero’s passing will affect. I have a hole in my heart and this one hurts a lot more because Eddy fought through so much only to have this happen. Eddy will truly NEVER die in my mind or any fan’s mind that saw him work his magic.

I was in total shock when I found out Eddie Guerrero passed away. When things like this happen though, I try to think of the positive as much as I can – that’s what helps me cope with these situations. I think Eddie Guerrero is at peace since he passed away being sober for 4 years. The situation would’ve been a lot worse if he would’ve died drugged in the car accident a few years ago. His family (and soul, if you believe in a heaven and hell) will always have the knowledge that he overcame all those obstacles and died truly at peace with himself.
Regardless, someone has to step in and do something about whatever is causing these wrestlers to die way too early in their lives.
May God be with Eddie Guerrero and his family.

Miami, FL
From: “Dan Jackson” With the loss of Eddie Guerrero a lot of people lost a lot of things. Eddie was survived by a wife and three children whom my thoughts and prayers go out to. Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko, Rey Mysterio, Dave Batista and many others have all lost a close friend and myself and millions of others around the world lost a hero.
Myself, like nearly everyone who reads this will be, am just a fan. I grew up watching wrestling in the 1990’s in the middle of the Monday Night Wars it was a very exciting time for wrestling fans everywhere. I didn’t see too much of Guerrero in WCW, I wasn’t there biggest fan but what I did see I really liked. It was not until his debut in the WWE that I really became familiar with him, instantly as the Radicalz debuted I picked Eddie out as the stand out star with Benoit, Malenko and Saturn all very impressive as well.
As Eddie progressed in the WWE I became fascinated with his unique style and charisma, I saw his tapes from Japan, ECW and went back and looked at his WCW matches with classics everywhere.
I know about his personal problems, his alcoholism and drug abuse, but that is not what this man will be remembered for. Myself, and everyone I know, has commented on what an amazing athelete and character the man was. I myself am incredibly proud of man I never knew or will ever have the pleasure of knowing, for being able to overcoome these demons and get his life back on track, to become the best in the world.
How history will look upon Guerrero I don’t know, but to me he was the absolute best and while he had his troubles he was able to overcome them and that is the mark of a true man.

I am going to miss Eddie Guerrero so much. When i found out about his death i was totally speechless!
As a man who is only 5ft8, i have been told all my life that I am too small to be a footballer, but watching Eddie Guerrero and Chris Benoit (2 small men in the land of giants) stand at Wrestlemania XX holding the 2 heavyweight titles was truly inspirational to me, I will never forget it.
Eddie was definitely one of the greatest in ring performers of my generation, and I will never forget him.
RIP Eddie Guerrero, thank you for entertaining us.

Last night I watched the Smackdown replay where Eddie was wrestling Kennedy. He was in “True Eddie Form”. As I watched, it was hard to believe that no longer will we see his impish grin. We will no longer hear the chants of “Eddie, Eddie, Eddie”. I went to the WWE web site and watched all of the videos on Eddie from the time he was a young boy. Sure, Eddie made mistakes with drugs and other things, but who has not made mistakes in their life. He learned from his experieneces and turned his life around and came back to win the belt. He was a better man through his experiences because he learned from them. He will be surely missed, and my heart goes out to his mother and family. Thank you for sharing Eddie with us!

We can all learn a valuable lesson from Eddie Guerrero. When Eddie was
fighting his demons and addictions a few years ago, he could have just
given up and let those things take control of his life for good. But,
he kept fighting. He was determined to not let those things destroy
his life. He taught us that it’s never too late to get your life
together. There is always hope. The good lord will never turn his back on
you. You will always have a second chance. He not only turned his life
around for himself but for his family. He knew that those addictions
were hurting his family.
Well, Eddie has beaten those addictions. All of the pain that he has
felt is over. He is in a better place now and I bet he’s up there and
he’s still fighting away.
May God comfort his wife and daughters during this difficult time.
They should be very proud of the man that they called their husband and
father. He was a good man.
God bless you, Eddie. You were truly an inspiration to us all. You
kept fighting until the end and taught us to never give up on ourselves
and our dreams. You may be gone but you will never be forgotten.

From: “John Latimer”
I was very sadden to see a banner on a website that I always visit. I had to visit a few others to see if it was indeed true. And yes the tragedy was too real, not scripted or rehearsed.
I first seen Eddie wrestle on WCW Televsion back in 1997. And boy can this guy do the job. Instantly, I loved watching this guy perform; he was one of the best “HEEL” wrestlers that I enjoyed watching. When I found out that Eddie was a good friend of Chris Benoit, I really payed attention to his wrestling performances. There are alot of Eddie moments, but there was a look in his eye the last time I seen him. If you pay attention to his eyes on last Fridays Smackdown, there is some kind of tinckle or birthday look in his eyes. Maybe inside he knew what was to come about.
In closing, my favorite Eddie Geurrero moment was indeed when he won his first major title, the WWE Heavyweight Champion of the world “Eddie Geurrero”. Bye Eddie. Your chant will be heard throughout the world tonight.

On Sunday November 13th, One man was found dead in his Hotel room. His name was Eddie Guerrero.
Eddie was a great performer, and a great man. Beating Drugs and Alcohol, and having a family.
But sunday that all came to an end for the man who was 38 years young. No one knows how it happened, but its a tragic loss to all who’ve seen him in the ring, or knew him personally.
I for one am shaken about his death, and i’ve never seen him live at a wrestling event, just on tv and on ppv, but it hurts me to know he’s gone.
I heard them say, he died of heart failure while brushing his teeth. It doesn’t matter to me how he died. All that matters is that the World of wrestling lost a great man.
RIP

I just came home from a weekend at my girlfriends
house and was completely shocked when I read the
news.It was like a punch in the gut.I haven’t felt
this since Owen Hart passed away.I will pray for the
Guerrero family and wish them the best of luck with
this horrible passing.Eddie was a great father,
wrestler, husband, and will always be one of the
greatest WWE champions.

I just wanna say i’ve been checkin out this ProWrestling site for 3-4 years now. Im 28 years old and i’ve been watching wrestling since i was 4. I have even passed wrestling onto the next generation of my own family, as my son who is almost 8 watches it also. I’ve been a big Eddie Guerrero fan since i watched tapes of him before his WCW days courtesy of RF video. The guy was a phenominal athlete, and overcame alot of odds. Not just his past addictions but his size as well. The guy was only 5’8″. Thats amazing!! His wrestling abilities and his presence will be sadly missed. I was really looking forward too seeing Eddie perform at Wrestlamania 22. My prayers are with his family and friends. VIVA LA RAZA!!! RIP EDDIE!!!

From: “Al Gutierrez” I am at a lost for words…you know Eddie was one of my favorite
wrestlers of all time! My favorite moment of Eddie’s was when he broke character
at No Mercy in Houston! He said that he’d be nothing without his fans and
went on about how every time he would step out of the curtain he would give his
body to us! That meant so much to us at the time but now it means so much
more that he is gone! I know it shouldn’t but we take life for granted! So
now I would like to send out my deepest condolences to the Guerrero family
and take time to go and be with mine! Life is short so live it to its
fullest…just like Eddie did!! -Derek G.
From: “Trejo, Ausencio”
Yesterday night when I reading PWS and came across the link of the breaking news of the death of Eddie Guerrero I could not believe it! I truly felt a rush of blood to the head when I found out. Still today I think about it and I still can’t believe it, it just can not cross my mind that Eddie is gone, it’s like a bad dream or something, it truly is a sad day in the Wrestling business because of the loss of a tremondous wrestler, athlete, father and husband. My true condolences go out to all the Guerrero family, Que Dios los Bendiga mucho y estan en mis oraciones (May God Bless you all and you are in my prayers) even though I don’t know them personally but son mi familia, mi Raza. I will never forget Eddie Guerrero and all the matches that I was able to see him in, he was truly one of the best in the business. I love you Eddie and VIVA LA RAZA POR SIEMPRE HOMES?
Sincerely,

This is a tragic loss to sports entertainment and mankind. Eddie was
truly a special person, both in and out of the ring. He had come so far
after becoming sober and drug free, and to have him lost at the prime of his
carreer is tragic. Eddie will be missed by this fan and many others. Eddie
had competed around the world in so many different organizations and
words can not describe how truly talented he was. Its just a terrible loss.
Not too many other ways to put it. His family is in my prayers and
thoughts and he will not be forgotten. RIP latino heat.

From: “unknown”
EDDIE GUERRERO WAS A LEGEND IN THE WRESTLING BUSINESS. HIS WHOLE FAMILY WAS AND ALWAYS WILL BE. EDDIE GUERRERO WAS A GOOD WRESTLER, BUT HE WAS A GREAT MAN. HE WENT OUT IN TO THE RING EVERY NIGHT AND GAVE IT HIS ALL IN HIS MATCHES AND PROMOS, JUST TO GIVE THE FANS WHAT THEY WANTED. HE PUT HIS BODY ON THE LINE IN NUMEROUS OCCASIONS, HE WAS ONE OF THE BEST “HIGH-FLYERS” TO EVER GRACE A WRESTLING RING. THE WAY HE WOULD COME OUT AND CUT PROMOS AND REALLY INTERACT WITH THE FANS AND BRING THE FANS INTO IT. IT WAS SO AMAZING. EDDIE WAS A TREMENDOUS TALENT AND HE WILL ALWAYS BE IN NOT ONLY MY HEART, BUT THE HEART OF ALL THE WRESTLING FANS IN THE WORLD. I MET EDDIE 4 TIMES, THE LAST TIME WAS IN NEW YORK, HE AUTOGRAPHED A T-SHIRT FOR ME AND SHOOK MY HAND AND ACTUALLY STOOD THERE AND TALKED TO ME AND MY SISTER FOR LIKE 5 MINUTES, ASKING US HOW NEW YORK WAS AND IF WE WERE GOING TO THE WWE SHOW. EDDIE WILL FOREVER BE REMEMBERED AS A WONDERFUL HUMAN BEING AND A AMAZING ATHLETE IN THE RING. HE’LL FOREVER BE MISSED. GOD BLESS YOU EDDIE GUERRERO. WE WILL NEVER FORGET YOU.

I got to work this morning and was shocked to learn that Eddie had
passedaway. I’m reminded of Brian Pillman today, this is just so sudden and
unexpected. I can’t even begin to imagine the grief his wife and children
must be feeling. Eddie Guerrero helped elevate the business on so manylevels, I am happy that he achieved what he did in 2004, Guerrero has
leftus so many memories, I’ll never forget Eddie Guerrero and everything he
didinside and outside of the ring for his fans. I hope he has found
peace.

I just have yo say how confused, and saddened when I saw the news on wwe.com that Eddie Guerrero died in a hotel room. I thought that Eddie was one of the greatest entertainers and performers in the wwe to this date. I’ve seen Eddie Guerrero Perform at events like the Royal Rumble. I’m deeply concerned for Eddie’s family for how there going through this problem at this very second. I just hope that everybody including me can help out with this problem. All of us will never forget you EDDIE.

I’m so sorry about the death of Eddie Guerrero. In my
ten years as a wrestling fan, he has always been one
of my favorites for his skill, charisma, and most of
all, his undying passion for professional wrestling.
There has never been and never will be another Eddie
Guerrero. I want his friends and family to know that
the wrestling community loves Eddie Guerrero and that
his legend will never, ever die.

From: [email protected]
I personally believe that Eddie was one of the best performers in wrestling history. He was entertaining, clever, funny and a great athlete. It deeply saddens me that I will never see him perform live at Staples center in Los Angeles again. He brought so much energy to the crowd. “Eddie, Eddie, Eddie” the crowd would chant and go wild when he would walk down the aisle to the ring. He was a man that was proud of his ethnicity and culture and was not ashamed to display his mexican roots. I am a 27 year old grown man and I am proud to admit that he was my super hero. Eddie Guerrero will be missed but never forgotten. Rest in Peace Eddie.

I have never been one to repond to things like this, I am the one who just sort of sits back and keeps updated. This, however, I had to respond to. When I got online last night, I was speechless when I read the headline on your site. It is like a part of my family died. Wrestling is such a huge influence on my, and my entire families life that it really has hit us hard. I am very anxious to see how it is played out on WWE TV, to see if they handle it like the Owen situation, if they are classy about it. There have been many times while, on tv, I would say “man I wish Eddie would just go away”, but that is what made him the character that he was. He was an incredible performer, one who I am proud to be able to say that I saw live and experienced him for myself. My deepest heartfelty paryaers go out to Eddie and his family, and would just like them to know that, even though we don’t know them, they are in our thoughts during this very dark time!
From: “Austin Osueke”
If anything Eddie… Mr. Guerrero, you taught me to be true to who you are. To be proud of your heritage. You made me realize if you’re confident in yourself and have great natural talent you’ll win the love and respect of many people. You taught me to never give up… Never settle. And always strive for the top.
Thanks to your legacy, Mr. Guerrero, I’m going to keep at my dreams and never give up.
Most of all, I want to become a decent man like you, Mr. Guerrero.

From: “JASON&EMILY GOLDSBERRY”
Man I can’t believe one of the best professional wrestlers this business has ever known in the last 25 years is gone, especially (I know this sounds selfish ) at a time when professional wrestling cannot really afford such a loss. Eddie Guerrero was taken from life too early, cut down in the prime of his career, cause with the current situation with Smackdown, they were no doubt going put the strap on him. My heart goes out to his entire family, and I wish them well, and I would like to commend the WWE locker room for having the courage to go out there and perform in his honor after losing such a beloved man. I know I wasn’t close to him, not in the sense like people like Chavo Guerrero, or Chris Benoit, but I had the privilage of meeting Eddie, and he was an outstanding-world class performer, and he always gave the fans what they wanted whether he was being cheered or booed, I remember checking the wrestling boards on the 13th of November and seeing that Eddie Guerrero passes away, I thought no way that could be Eddie from Smackdown, and when it turned out it was, it was like being hit with a baseball bat, in the sense that it left you stunned, and I mean if it feels like that for me as a fan, I can only imagine what his friends and family are going through. Eddie, you were one of the best, there will never be another like you, and you will be missed.
From: [email protected]
To a great man in and out of the wrestling ring; a true inspiration to anyone who ever dreamed being a wrestler. A true rolemodel who through it all came out on top not only in the wrestling buisness but also in the hearts of everyone who watches him every week on television. A true family man who cares for his family and will do whatever he can to put them first. I will miss Eddie every week on television. He was a great athlete and will forever be in the mind and heart of every wrestling fan. Eddie Guerrero inspired me to pick myself up after a bad car accident and a damaged knee; I will forever be greatful for being able to watch him every week and see what he has accomplished in and out of the wrestling ring. You will be missed.

From: “ChrisX237”
This blows me away. I met him two years ago at an autograph signing here in my hometown of Tampa, FL. were he and Big Show were promoting a future Smackdown! House Show Event.
It was my first time attending a WWE Event at age 21. Big Show was my first ever “Meet and Greet” Wrestling Superstar. Eddie Guerrero was my last and fondest memory of a “Meet and Greet” Wrestling Superstar that I will never forget.
He was such a nice dude….to me, my girlfriend, and my girlfriend’s sister. His daughters were there. It was not only a joy to watch him sign autographs and chat with fans, but it was really special to see him interacting with his daughters as well. When I saw this, I was thinking to myself…”Wow, It must be so awesome to be a Father.” I hope one day I can have that type of affection he displayed for his children.
It was my turn to “Meet and Greet” Mr. Guerrero. I told him: “It’s a pleasure to meet you, man”. He said: “How’s it going?” “Taking it easy? “Good”. I stood beside him as a fan was kind enough to snap some pics for us…I held a peace sign hand gesture as to illustrate that, “This is the coolest moment.” He put his arm around my neck. Pictured was taken. History was made for me. This was as close to Eddie Guerrero as I ever got to. It was a surreal moment. And one I will always cherish.
Simply put, he was one of the best pure athletes and entertainers of the WWE. From one fellow Latino to another: “Muchisimas Gracias, Eddie Guerrero.” “Nunca te voy a olvidar”. “Te Quiero.” Translation: “Thank you very much, Eddie Guerrero.” “I’ll never forget you.” “I Love You.” R.I.P. Eddie Guerrero.

Yesterday Morning when I went to wwe.com I saw the shocking news of Eddie Guerrero’s passing. It is sad to think that we wont see him wrestle again but the memorys will still be there. He was great at what he did. Even during the Rey Mysterio thing ealier this year, he was still great at what he did. Even going back to ECW and his last match for that company against Dean that match would rank high in Eddie’s matches. I would rank Eddie up there with the best, every time I think of Eddie I picture him wrestling Chris Benoit, Kurt Angle, and Chris Jericho. All four of them is great but Eddie had a upper hand because he Lied, He Cheated, He Stealed. Then finally at No Way Out in 2004, Eddie Guerrero won the WWE Title from Brock Lesner. I was sitting at home watching that and I could not bealive that Eddie was the champ. But he lose the title four months later to JBL in a awesome match. Even though Eddie Guerrero had it though and almost died twice he came back and prove to everyone that someone can recover from Drug Abuse and come back and become a champion. Last Saturday, November 5th, WWE had a Smackdown House Show in my town and I went to it. The main event was Eddie Guerrero facing off against Batista. It was not a great match, even the crowd was chanting “Boring”. With the crowd chanting that, Eddie still gave us a show that I wont forget. Even though he lost the match to Batista, he shook hands with him to prove that he was class and its ok to lose one. I will never for get the last time I saw Eddie live just last week. The Wrestling World loss someone who was great at what he did, and he had great matches with just about everyone. My fav Eddie Guerrero moment is every time he Lie, Cheat, and Steal, I am going to miss seeing that. I liked when Eddie toss somone a chair and then layed down and act like they hit him with the chair. Stuff like that wont ever be forgotten. Eddie Guerrero will be miss by the whole wrestling world, Eddie Guerrero, RIP, VIVA LA RAZA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The wrestling world lost one of the best wrestlers in history. There will never be another wrestler like Eddie Guerrero. He made us laugh and he kept us on the edge of our seats with his matches. we going to miss you Eddie and you will never be forgotten
From: “Ray Zwicker”
i’ve been a wrestling fan for 15 years. i was brought
in to it by the flashiness of the ultimate warrior,
demolition, and the big boss man. that was when i was
9 years old.
as the years past i started to develop an appreciation
for those wrestlers who could draw a crowd into their
matches and keep them there for 20, 30, 45 minutes.
bret hart, shawn michaels, ric flair. these guys
became the reason to watch.
Then i discovered ECW and subsequently, the WCW
cruiserweight division. and there was eddie. goofy
mullet, funny tights, and not much in the way of mike
skills. but the second his match began, regardless of
opponent or WCW booking ‘adventures’, eddie had you.
his style was unique, yet reminded you of the greats.
you could tell this guy was suppose to be doing more
than he was.
towards the end of 1999, i was so sick of seeing him
get beaten up with his rag-tag LWO, that when he got
put into the Filthy Animals with other standouts like
Rey Mysterio and Kidman, and put in a feud with Ric
FLair, i thought progress was being made. i kept
hoping for him to get a shot at showing what every
intelligent fan could see: the main event.
then came january 2000. hallejulah! Eddie, along
with two of my other favorite, misused, underrated
talents finally arrive to the WWF. this was his shot.
him and the others.
then again, not everything works out the way you hope.
sidelined by an injury, then the drugs and alcohol,
some decent storylines, an IC title reign, then, it
was over. eddie got fired. man, that sucked!
but, then with the brand split, eddie was back. and
feuding with Austin, no less. well, until austin
left. eddie then got another crack at Ric Flair,
which started what i hope will stand out in the minds
of the fans as the greatest run of his career.
feuding with benoit, teaming with chavo (in arguable
the best tag team feuds of the past 10 years), cena,
feuding with chavo, and then at NO Way Out, finally
winning the WWE Title. there aren’t too many moments
that cause me and my freinds to jump out of our seats,
but that was one. everything he had worked for had
come to pass. unbelievable moment.
then at Wrestlemania 20, when benoit took the gold,
and he and eddie stood in the ring, champions at the
biggest event of the year. relishing in the moment
where all their hard work had paid off. i’ve never
been so proud of someone i’ve never met.
Eddie, your presence, your ability to captivate and
entertain, your persaverence, your charisma, your
matches, will always be special to all of us who have
grown up to appreciate what professional wrestling can
offer an audience. because you embodied that.
i know there’s a low-rider in heaven waiting,
hydrolics pumping.
you will be missed, but never forgotten. Latino Heat
forever, viva la raza!
sincerely,
Ray

Eddie Guerrero was one of the all round great performers in the world
of wrestling. I first started watching wrestling when Eddie first came to
WWE in early 2000, and from following his career in that company, I decided
to look over his past matches, and saw in him an energy like no other. A
strong sprit who overcame challenging time to prove himself worthy of the WWE
Title, and a man who loved his job greatly, a love he shared with the fans
as well. I have had the oppurtunity to see Eddie perform live in person, as
have many many others, and I can say with no question that he will, and should be remembered, as one of the most charismatic, energetic, and downright great wrestlers of our time.

Being a long time Indy worker, I have studied Eddie as well as several other wrestlers in order to keep my style fresh. Eddie had the drive and charisma to keep fans on the edge of their seats.

With his untimely passing, there is a huge hole in the world of wrestling today.

From: “Lindsay Smith”
I just wanted to say how shocked I was to read that Eddie pasted away yesterday. I came home from work, and did my usual rounds of checking info, and this just took me by surprise. Even my wife, who is a moderate wrestling fan knew this was devestating.
I have been following Eddie since his WCW days, and really closely since he joined WWE with Benoit, Melinko and Saturn. I, like many, have watched him battle his addictions, get seriously hurt, come back, get fired, come back and then win the ultimate prize, the WWE Championship. It was amazing watching this guy, whom many considered (like Benoit and Jericho), too short to carry such a Championship. It probably was one of my most enjoyable times watching Eddie, along with his bestfriend Benoit, carry the company.
We as fans lost one of the most charasmatic, energetic, knowledgeable and great entertainers and athletes of our time. Eddie Guerrero was truely an ambassidor the sport and to athletes accross the world. He is an inspiration to anyone that has hit rock bottom, or extremely tough times, to only come back and be a better person, friend, brother, uncle, father, and husband.
We all will miss Eddie Guerrero. There will NEVER be anyone like him, only ones that can aspire to be like him. I truely will miss this guy. I never knew how big a fan I was of him till now.
God Bless Eddie and his family and friends. We all morn in sorrow as we have all lost a truely great man. Yet, we all can hold the knowldege that we can all continue to watch Eddie via DVDs and specials. Eddie will live on forever in our hearts and minds, as well as our personal entertainment as we put in a DVD to watch one of the greatest performers/athletes/man of all time.
God Bless Eddie. You are in God’s hands now.

This is just a terrible tradgedy. I along with Eddie was a fellow addict and over coming that is something to be said. The hard part is that the damage was done. Even though we are clean, the drugs put so much of a stress on our hearts that we become ticking time bombs.
Hopefully in the future maybe a test could be done to determine if a persons heart is enlarged or damage by past drug use. I think evberydody should get there favorite hat and wrtite E.G. on it somewere in tribute to Eddie. I got the chance to meet him in Pittsburgh and he was great. He wsa truly the best Hispanic Wrestler of the modern era.
So if you see someone with E.G. on their hat just give them a nod and look up to heaven because that truly is were Eddie at.

Hey,
Like many other wrestling fans, I am still in utter disbelief that Eddie is gone and will no longer be bringing Latino Heat to the ring for all of his fans. Eddie was without a doubt one of the very best technical wrestlers to ever grace a wrestling ring. Not many men could put on a wrestling match with Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit like Eddie could. We have seen so many great talents go far too soon in the past several years. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends during this most difficult time. The WWE just won’t be the same. I am looking forward to the tribute shows this week. Rest in peace Eddie.

Eddie always had me entertained, he had my attention from the second he
walked out till he left. I always loved his ability in the ring to
bring his character out in how he wrestled. He was awesome and like i said always
entertaing, no matter if he was in a serious story line like with rey,
or doing side splitting promos with chavo, just amazing. There definitely
needs to be a dvd about his career or a best of dvd. I will miss him and the
wrestling community has suffered a greta loss, I will be praying lots
for him and his family, i just wish there was more I could do. R.I.P Eddie,

Hello,
I would like to express my deepest sympathy to the family of Eddie Gurrerro. We was an excellent in ring performer who knew how to get over with the fans. It’s a shame how you are here one day and gone the other. Just saw him on wrestling Friday taking the chair shot from Mr. Kennedy and now he’s gone. It’s tragic and there will never be another performer like him.

From: “Thomas Cox”
Eddie Guerrero was, hands down, the best Hispanic wrestler on the active WWE roster. I don’t believe Eddie’s death was cut short, nor was his life too long. He had done pretty much everything he wanted to do concerning his wrestling career. He had numerous titles, including a reign as the WWE Champion for most of 2004. He had fun with his nephew, fellow WWE Superstar Chavo Guerrero, Jr. teaching him and training him. Chavo has really come into his own now. It’ll be interesting to see where his “middle-class white American” gimmick leads him now. Eddie also had, as his DVD title mentions, “cheated death and stolen life.” Eddie had battled and overcome his drug addiction and was clean and sober for four years, almost five. I seriously hope that everyone in the WWE sees this as a celebration of life through the mourning of death. Eddie’s life and career need to be cherished through any way possible. It wouldn’t surprise me to see Eddie Guerrero inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2006 or 2007.
(Thanks, hope this makes it into the list!

Back in the late 60’s and early 70’s, wrestling was territorial. Up here in the Northeast, we didn’t have as much access to different wrestlers across the country like we do today. Being a true fan, I couldn’t wait each month for the new wrestling magazines to be published. Bill Apter and his publications kept me informed. I started reading about Chavo Guerrero wrestling in Los Angeles. Thus the start of my interest in the Guerreros.
Skip ahead several years. Wrestling interest boomed and I was able to see many new and different wrestlers. Over the years I was able to see such great Hispanic and Mexican wrestlers as Mil Mascaras, Manny Fernandez, Pedro Morales… Still no Guerrero. When Eddie Guerrero finally came to WCW, I was elated. I had heard of him in ECW, now I could see him. He quicky became one of my favorites. Then the jump to WWE with the Radicalz sealed my respect and enjoyment of his abilities. Face or heel, Eddie was always entertaining. He put his all into every match, even if his role was to avoid the big face. Man, if only other wrestlers could work the way he did.
Today’s wrestling product will sorely miss Eddie. I will miss all of his antics. Be with God. You have earned the right to rest. You have meant so many different things to many people. May your family find happiness in the short time they had with you.

One of the greatest performers Ive ever seen was Eddie Gurrerro, a
performer who I was shocked to hear had passed away in the prime of his
life and carreer. I remember the first time I ever saw Eddie Gurrerro
compete. It was an early edition of WCW Monday Nitro. I cant recall his
opponent, but I remember knowing that he had the “it” factor with the fans
the moment he walked through the curtain. I will never forget seeing
the finish to the match, it was the first time I ever saw a frog spalsh
performed with such persicion. Eddie wasnt the biggest wrestler, like
say Triple H, nor was he the smallest like say Rey Misterio, but I
remember a friend of mine saying that he would never be a huge superstar
because he was so small. And I remember looking at him with a big grin on
my face when he won the WWE championship a few years later. I will
always remember his athletisim and sportmanship in the ring. I didnt know
the man personaly but what I could see was that he loved his family, the
bussiness and his fans. Sure he will never be remembered for being the
biggest, but he will be remembered for having one of the biggest hearts
in the bussiness. Weither as a face or a heel Eddie Gurrerro will
always be remembered as one of the greatests. God bless you Eddie Gurrerro,
tell Andre, “Hawk”, Brian, Owen, and all the greats that have passed
that we said “Hi”. Its your turn to perform for God. You will be missed,
by your family, friends, and especially your fans.

I don’t even know if anyone will even read this or care, but I want you
to
know that there are a lot of people that care about Eddie Guerrero (WWE
star that passed away yesterday morning). Regardless of what you or
your
listeners think about professional wrestling, it does not change the
fact
the Mr. Guerrero was a human being and to be so ignorant (Colin) by
disrespecting him or his job a day after his death is borderline
heartless.
I am a 32 year old male that (as most men in my demographic) spends a
good
portion of time watching Sportscenter, College Game Day, and NFL Sunday
Night to mention a few shows on ESPN and its affiliates. I want you to
know that the actions that your Radio hosts has just caused you a
viewer
and listener. I also intend to post this on many other sites, so
people
can see how disrespectful you really are.
FYI- The disrespectful comments were made on the Colin Cowherd show
this
morning on ESPN Radio, accusing Eddie and other wrestlers of steroid
use,
making mention that “who cares that he died” this isn’t even
“newsworthy”
and speculating as to the “unknown causes” of the death.
Thank you for your time.

Favorite Eddie moment:
The first time I saw Eddie wrestle live was in the spring of 95. It was
at a local high school outside of Philly. It was Eddie vs. Dean Malenko
for the ECW TV title. There was maybe a 100 people in the gym and these
guys gave it their all for 30 minutes. I took a friend of mine who
isn’t a wrestling fan and he was amazed out the sheer athleticism of Eddie.
I saw Eddie wrestle many times after this but this was always a special
memory for me. Eddie will be missed. I can’t even begin to comprehend
this right now. These wrestlers become part of our extended family and I
feel like I just lost my cool older brother.

I am deeply saddened by this, I really, really am. I am a 24 year old
husband that has been trying not to cry all day. I heard the news late
last night and I was in complete shock. I have been watching and
following wrestling since 1987 and I can honestly say that Eddie Guerrero is
one of the best I have ever seen. I live in Detroit and have tickets
to SS this month and one of the main reasons I bought a ticket was to
see Eddie Guerrero. I have always wanted to become a wrestler myself,
however I am only 5’4″ and guys like Eddie Guerrero, Rey Jr., Chris
Benoit and HBK (who are hands down the best that the WWE has to offer) are
inspirations to me. They are proof that size doesn’t matter and that
talent and desire are what fuels this business. I can honestly say that
you ARE still loved and you are one of the best of all time. Rest in
Peace my friend, you are in a far better place now. I thoughts and
prayers are with you and your family. Why does it always take a tragedy
like this to realize who and what are truly important.

Hello,
My name is Dennis and I’ve been following wrestling ever since I was 3 or 4 years old. I’m deeply saddened to hear the untimely passing of Eddie Guerrero I’ve followed his career ever since he and Chavo where both in WCW. Eddie was a great face in the wrestling business he will be missed dearly by everybody who follows the wrestling business. I send my thoughts and prayers to the entire Guerrero family. I will indeed be watching the tribute shows that the WWE will be putting on in his honor. The wrestling world has lost a great wrestler and most of all an extraordinary human being.

my thoughts goes out to his family he was a true champion, he was always liked as a good guy and a bad guy i sure did like him

This is EASILY the hardest I’ve ever taken a death of someone who I
never knewpersonally! Eddie Guerrero was a wonderful wrestler and a marvelous
man, who I will miss anytime I watch any action in the ring. When I first read
this news on Sunday evening, I was gutted and found myself praying for this to be
either a mistake or some sick joke! The fact that this has come after a great
four years (off drink and drugs) makes it even more heartbreaking! We’ll
miss you Eddie! You are a true legend of the sport! Viva La Raza…
From: “Jamie Lahey”
Wow… I still can’t beileve your gone, Eddie. I can’t beileve we will never be able to see you ride out in a low rider on SmackDown! ever again. Can’t beileve we will never see another Frog Splash, or be able to see you fake a chair shot and get the DQ win. When I woke up yesterday, the last thing I expected to see was that Eddie Guerrero had passed away. My thoughts and prayers go out to his wife, daughters and entire family.
R.I.P. Eddie, the flames of Latino Heat will burn forever.

My heart just aches for Eddie’s family and friends at this time. As
fans, we only know the wrestlers from what we see on the weekly shows
and on any DVDs that are released where the wrestlers step out of their
on-screen roles and open up about their private lives. Eddie is a man
to look up to and admire, he conquered a lot in his life and was
ALWAYS,
no matter what program he competed in, one of the top three performers
on the show, always giving us 100%. The fact that he became saved is
something that his loved ones can take comfort in – he waits for his
friends, family, and fans in a much better place than this. We love
you
Eddie, and will miss you always. Thank you for all that you gave us.
LATINO HEAT FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Eddie Guerrero was one of my all-time favorites. He had overcome so much over the last few years. He was and still is an inspiration for millions of people. When he won the WWE title at No Way Out 2004 it was so emotional. I think that when he and Benoit were celebrating together at the end of Wrestlemania 20 is the greatest moment in Wrestlemania history. Rest in Peace Eddie. You will be dearly missed.
From: “Andrew Hambridge”
It is almost surreal to see a professional wrestler of Eddie’s caliber and status pass away in the prime of his career. He was one of those guys who just got better with age. I would put him in a class with very few wrestlers of this generation, namely Shawn Michaels, Kurt Angle or Chris Benoit, who could have a great match with anyone. He defined sports entertainment, putting that comedic spin in a stellarly athletic match. Though people like me only know him as an in-ring performer, he will be missed.

Everyday I log on to PWS to read the latest news. But, when I logged on yesterday morning, I saw the headline that was breaking news: “Eddie Guerrero has passed away”. For the rest of the day, I was so saddened and it made me remember how precious life is. Like many others, I will miss seeing Eddie on Smackdown every week. I will especially miss the way he made his entrances on the show driving the classic cars down the ramp. The one match that always sticks in my mind is the ladder match he had with Edge a few years back. That match was completely insane and one of the best matches ever! In close, I would like to say this: Eddie, thanks for the memories! You’ll be missed by many, but never forgotten.
Sincerely,
SRT

Eddie was one of the greatest ever, i dont think theres anyone who can argue against that. i met him backstage at SummerSlam 2000 in North Carolina and he was a class act and funnier than i could have ever guessed. he just had an awesome energy around him that just grabbed you and took you on a ride with him. so out of all my Eddie memories, watching him play backstage will always stand out. he even signed my “Cheech and Chyna” sign i brought with me after laughing and showing it to a few wrestlers near by.
Eddie was a class act and a true inspiration to never quit, no matter how low life gets. Ill miss you Eddie. Thanks for the memories and say hi to my grandmother for me! 🙂

eddie eddie eddie will be really missed
he will be remembered as one of the greatest performers ever!!

i really feel for the locker room
he is so close to my own age of 36 and i also have a wife and 2 kids
it’s feel strange today knowing that he is not around anymore
you will be missed dearly by all
