I was driving home from work today and decided to call my buddy Mike on my cell phone to tell him about something that's coming up. After I told him, he asked if I had been online today, I told him no that I'd been at work since 7 a.m. He told me that Eddie Guerrero had been found dead in a hotel room in Minneapolis. I couldn't believe it. It seems everytime you turn around another wrestler is dying, and the majority are from heart attacks and heart failure. It's very sad. Eddie was a tremendous wrestler who was one of the few who was equally gifted as both an entertainer as a character on the mic and as a wrestler in the ring. He will be remembered as one of the best. My heart goes out to the family he has left behind.
Much like Chris Candido, it's very sad to see what all he was able to overcome and after celebrating his fourth year of sobriety something like this happens. At least, he was able to overcome his demons and die a happy man who had came back from the lowest lows to reach the top of his chosen profession. I think everyone will always remember the scene at the end of Wrestlemania XX with Eddie and Chris Benoit in the ring celebrating their victories as World Champions after all the years they had put in to get there. God Bless"Latino Heat" and may he rest in peace.
