Eddie Guerrero passes away
 

This was just brought to my attention. Unfortunately, when I read "Did you hear about Eddie G" I pretty much had a feeling that something bad had happened.

"WWE is deeply saddened by the news that Eddie Guerrero has passed away. He was found dead this morning in his hotel room in Minneapolis. Eddie is survived by his wife Vickie and his two daughters."

That's all that's on the officail WWE site. I guess more will be revealed later.

As someone who is obviously a huge Eddie mark, I find this jaw dropping and shocking. His theme song is my main ringtone.

I'm in such shock, I refuse to believe it.

Yet I know it's true.

This is just...sickening. After beating his demons, winning the biggest symbol of drug addiction defiance (the WWE Championship), Eddie dies the way noone wanted him to back when he had his problems, alone in a hotel room.

Eddie was one of the greatest wrestlers of all time, one of the true innvoators, and the first hispanic wrestler to become world champion in an american promotion. He set the standard for main eventers of his kind, and he could never truly stay heel for long, when he was heel, he made you beleive it.

I always criticised his feud with Rey Mysterio (primarily because I despise Mysterio), but in all fairness, that feud reinvigorated much of SMACKDOWN for me, and I now prefer it over RAW, now nothing more than a dumping ground for the Mcmahons and jobber fodder for the prick holding the championship presently. F*ck you Cena, f*ck you bookers, instead of slapping the belts on three move wonders, why not take advantage of something and someone who deserves it before its' too late?

I despise the way WWE works sometimes, but Eddie bounced back from the pressure of main eventing in 2004, and came right back, he will always be remembered as someone who cheated death, and stole not only life, but also the notion of underestimation. The guy is a living breathing example of when not to lower your expectations, for he may very well surpass them from his previous track record.

And he did that in spades.

VIVA LA RAZZA

That avatar has always been one of my favorite pics of Eddie.

WWE.com will have a press conference from Vince and Chavo Jr at somepoint today. The WWE tapings from tonight will be Eddie Guerrero tribute shows. (For tomorrow's RAW and Friday's SD)

Wow... such terrible news. I've been kinda outa of the wrestling seen for a while now (though I'll watch snippets form time to time) but I ALWAYS liked Eddie, good guy or not....what a terrible loss...

OMG... I...he was so young! :o

I hadn't been watching WWE lately but I was getting updates on what's been going on and stuff from my contacts in the WWE.

Man..what a thing to wake up to this morning. With a message from a friend of mine in the WWE that Eddie had passed away. :(

Eddie was a nice guy...he loved his family more than anything. I only wish I had met him. :cry:

Everybody! Go here!! It's the press conference on his death!

Aww wow that sucks. Hope he wasn't a Roids user that could have been why.

Nah man...he was naturally cut.

The sad thing is, he was celebrating 4 years of being clean and sober this weekend and this happens.

Man...i still can't believe he's gone. Im keeping the Forever sig on for a good long time.

((Man...i've been a f*ckin' baby tonight..Watching WM20 and No way out 04' doesn't help matters much, does it? ))

Don't feel bad, I've been a mess myself. Everytime my phone rings, it's a reminder.

I just wish that all of this was some big horrible joke.

Batista:"Eddie...if you were alive...i would give you this championship..I miss you buddy..."

*Cell phone rings*

Eddie:"Dead?!...I LIIIIIIIIIIIED!!"

I swear...it just all feels like some horrible dream

God I wish it was a bad dream. My mother called today saying she heard on the news a WWE guy died, wanting to know who it was. I told her it was Eddie and she was really upset by it. She remembered watching him in WCW and WWF when I was younger and She always loved him. So we talked about Eddie for awhile.

I'm making myself a new ringtone out of Eddie's themes. I'm combining the Cell phone ring "Can you feel the heat?" Intro with the Original Lie, Cheat and Steal theme. I was using the rap song, his last new theme but I kind of want to use Lie Cheat and Steal.
