knightni Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 I remember when he was on WCW's NWO Red with Rey Mysterio Jr and others. I hope he didn't kill himself or was murdered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowerCaseRepublican Posted November 13, 2005 Author Share Posted November 13, 2005 Reports are saying that he had breakfast this morning, went back to his hotel room & then wasn't around when people were looking for him so they went to his hotel and found him.

Brian Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 Bet it was heart failure. He had a past of pills and alcohol addiction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 Man, this sucks. Eddie was always one of my favorites. He was funny, he could be a great serious heel, and he was a really solid, believable worker. He was the same age as my wife - FAR too young to leave a family behind. No cause of death determined as yet, but I fear that his years of self-abuse caught up with him. Vaya con dios,"Papi", rest in peace, "homez".

nitetrain8601 Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 R.I.P. He was one of my favorite wrestler's. I bet it was from 'Roids though. Vince McMahon(according to Rowdy Roddy Piper) made some guys take them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vince McMahon(according to Rowdy Roddy Piper) made some guys take them. Well, I'm guessing that the days of VKM "making" guys take roids are long gone, after he was tried for roid distribution years ago, but I don't doubt that he turned a blind eye to them. More likely IMO is that Eddie died from the harm he had done to his body over the years. More of a cumulative effect than a direct one, if I had to guess.

orangekrush88 Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 Sad News, he still could put on some great matches in the ring. Here is the latest from a wrestling webstie, PWTorch.com: " Eddie Guerrero was found in his hotel room in Minneapolis with his toothbrush in his mouth. He apparently died while brushing his teeth. At this point, the belief among WWE personnel is that Guerrero died of heart failure. Shortly after Guerrero's body was found and removed from the room, Chris Benoit, Rey Mysterio, Dean Malenko and Chavo Guerrero visited the hotel room to say their goodbyes. WWE wrestlers and staffers were visibly shaken and emotional while leaving the hotel to go the Target Center, the site of tonight's Raw/Smackdown taping. Word from WWE sources is that the tenor of tonight's taping will be dramatically different and that the Smackdown show will need to be revised. Guerrero's death is now the lead story on WWE.com, under the headline "Tragic Loss". The article says that WWE is "deeply saddened" by Guerrero's death, and provides no further details on his passing." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 As it is far too common in the world of wrestling, Eddy Guerrero was found dead today of a likely heart attack. And you wonder why baseball is trying to prevent players from abusing steroids also? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redandwhite Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 eddie guerrero abused drugs and alcohol and while he and everyone else in the wrestling world uses steroids, they are not the reason he died. rip eddie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orangekrush88 Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 In the press conference on WWE.com I believe Chavo Guererro states that Eddie was clean for 4 years, they weren't an immediate impact, but the long term effect that the stuff he did in the past definitly would have played a major role in his death if he did die of Heart Failure.

If he was the first wrestler to die in the last 10 years from a heart attack, then I would agree with you. However, this has become a pattern with wresters when they reach the 35-45 year old range.

RIP Eddie. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The screwed up thing is that Eddy Guerrero was actually pudgy during his early days in WCW. I'm sure the roids, drugs, and booze that he abused all played some kind of role in his death. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

British Bulldog, Hawk from LOD, Mr. Perfect, Big Bossman, Crash Holly, Rick Rude, Hercules Hernandez, and now add Eddie Guerrero. That's just off the top of my head.

Kyyle23 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 It is sad that this happened, eddie lived by the sword and died by the sword. I saw his last match on Friday night, strangely it was the only 15 minutes of Smackdown! that I watched on Friday night. He was the same old Eddie, fun to watch and cheating his way into victories. Roids or not, Eddie always made a good characted work in the WWE, and he never messed up a shoot or a spot. RIP Eddie Guerrero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smalls2598 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Back in 2000, i went to Raw with some friends at the Rosemont Horizon; afterwards we went to Bennigans on Cumberland. We were just about to leave, and in walked Guererro, Dean Milenko, Chris Beniot and the other guy (i don't recall his name). We asked for a group picture, but only Guerrero and Beniot agreed to take part. Anyways, I stopped watching the WWF when it became the WWE; and although I was never a big fan of Guerrero, I always appreciated the fact that he took the picture with us. RIP Eddie.
