Yep, I was absolutely stunned to go to wwe.com and see this HUGE banner before me that said RIP Eddie Guerrero.
It's just so surreal, that somebody in the prime of their careers could just suddenly have their lives taken from them.
It's eerie to think that the latest DVD featuring him is titled "Cheating Death, Stealing Life" which is about all of the personal demons he had overcome.
Eddie was a talented wrestler and an outstanding human being, he will be definitely missed. Thanks for starting this thread Footman913.

I haven't been a wrestling fan for years but I was shocked to see that he had died when I open my browser and it was listed in the latest news on Yahoo!

I'm glad to see this thread,cause I haven't really vented yet since I found out the news yesterday in the early afternoon. His death has touched me more than I think any past wrestler that has died.miss elisabeth,andre,rick rude,junkyard,owen,mr perfect,the list can go on...now why did it touch me more than the other??because I wached this wrestler grow up,and grow as an athlete.I watched him through his rough times where you knew he was having demons.I wached him when he got injured.I watched him in pure bliss ontop of moutins he always dreamed of being onI saw his start in wcw,ecw and to wwe.he was in my livingroom once,twice,somtimes 3 times a week on tv for many,many years,bringing me excitement,anger,laughter and shock.I remember him as a shit wrestler in wcw who character I found bland.but as time went on,his ring skill got better and better till he ended up in wwf/wwe. Most superstars fall into one of thease catagories,you either got mic skills,are a high flyer,a technical,a luchador,a brawler,a character,a champian.eddie was all of thease,wich is EXTREMLY rare in this industry today. Its strange and hate me for this,but it took his death to realise this,but its soo easy for that to happen when the indistry is soo fast paced,storylines change rapidly and battles may onely last till the following ppv...he was a high flyer and brawler with rvd,a luchador with meysterio, technical with benoit,a character with his nephew(chavo)and chyna.with all of thease rapid changing battles and storylines you forget that one week he could take on a lucador,then the following week be fighting somone technical like kurt angle,wile in the mix making us laugh.he had that ring psycoligy that jake roberts use to use,but he added humor to it....he was just that whole package and looked good nomatter who he faced,and always made his apponants look good as well.say whatever you want,but I will miss him. now on another note,some fag ass espn radio host pissed on him today saying he wasn't an athlete,why are we spending time talking about his death,etc..its all over online,if you are dicusted by it,write a letter to espn about it,and sign a petition that's going around to remove that dj. As for my opinion on tonites memorial,I was completly moved by beoit,angle,chavo,big show.I was discusted by "the bosses daughter" little segment,she looked like she was forcing herself to cry,wich made me question hhh as well...if I find out that wwe made this memorial to exploit eddies death,exploit his family and his friends,I will NEVER watch wwe television again,mark my word Footman,thanks for bringing up this thread,I haven't made a thread on this topic,or bled about it anywhere due to still being in shock,thanks. And to eddie,thanks for all the good times you've given us throught the years.
