I write this post, to say goodbye to one of the greatest wrestlers I have known.

Goodbye Eddie, your time to fight is over, you have earned your rest. Goodbye.

If you doubt me that Eddie died, or don't know who he is, visit:

Ya I saw that, Freak Heart attack

Shocking

RIP Man enjoy that big Ring in the sky.

RIP Eddie. You will be sorely missed.

R.I.P. Eddie

:(

WCW Eddie was far supperior to WWF or WWE Eddie.:(

Hmm...another wrestler dies of a heart attack just shy of 40.


I love the wwe but there's something not quite right about that.

Viva la Raza, Viva la Eddie.:(

watch out, michael

eddie will kick your ass if you look at him funny

I had the opportunity to see Eddie live in Green Bay several years ago when I was still a dedicated WWE fan.

The guy had an energy about him that just made you root for him, even when he was playing a total heel. :p

He was a force both in and out of the ring...he will be missed. :(

1967-2005.


As for the cuase of death, I havent seen toxicology reports, or read a coroners report, so as far as I know, the cuase of death is "unknown".

Eddie had a history of substance abuse, wich he had conquered and has been sober for four years, prior to his death.
Steroid use, (although more likely human growth hormone), along with that, may have been a contributing factor.

Very sad.
Especially for his wife and children.

RIP Eddie...9th October 1967 - 13th November 2005

I'm still in absolute shock, I keep seeing him on Smackdown -v- Raw 2006 and thinking 'he can't be dead...he just can't!'

But he is...

I'll miss you Eddie!

Hey kids, don't do drugs! :headbang:

RIP Eddie's gone, but Latino Heat's legend will live on.

Here's to a great heel.

Veano's(SP) were better.

I remember watching Eddie back when he had rivalries with Angle and Jericho, and can't forget Mysterio... it just seems surreal that he's gone, you know?

I guess I just assumed that he'd always be there, wrestling...

You will be missed, Eddie.

RIP Eddie and don't forget to Lie, Cheat & Steal with the best of them...

I've met several pro wrestlers in person. I never met Eddie Guererro. But he always seemed to give everything he had inside that ring. He put on one hell of a show.

Just found this on WWE.com.

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.”

I used to watch a lot of pro wrestling, and this has come as a great surprise for me. I've been watching all the tributes on wwe.com, and paid my own by digging out my old N64 console, putting in my old fav, wcw/nwo revenge, and going through the world heavy weight title with Eddie one last time. I won it with the frog splash, too.

Amen to that.

Requiescat in Pace.

Damn, the new Latino Heat with Batista looked like a nice future tag team champion.

i loved that guy, can't believe he's gone, wish i could have seen him in action live, just once.

R.I.P. Eddie Guerrero
he'll go down as a wrestling legend just as he deserves to

One of the first feuds I got seriously interested in when I first became a wrestling fan was the Los Guerreros vs. Team Angle feud a few years back. The comedy in the promos and matches was practically priceless. That's what I remember the most, how much charisma Eddie had. It's been said before, but most assuredly not enough, Rest In Peace Eddie, your fans will miss you. Alot.

Viva la rrrrrrrrrrrasa. Respect.

Remember him from his good-guy days in WCW. And that frog-splash. What could replace that?
