R.I.P. Eddie Guerrero

I had Eddie on my shit when he was champ. Honestly, there were only 2 shows on TV that featured Latinos as their main characters... the George Lopez show and Smackdown. Paul Heyman was saying the Smackdown was a show that English was a second language, and it's champ at the time was Eddie. It was cery fitting. The greatest Latino wrestler ever, better than Pedro Morales... I said it... better that Carlos Colon... I said it... better than Carlitos will ever dream of being, and better than Mysterio can physically be.

His character was funny, creative, sneaky, he played a cocky, cheating, lying, stealing character who people could not boo. Eddie was a unique wrestler that comes around very rarely. Konnan at one time claimed he was to the Latin wrestling community what Hulk Hogan was to the American wrestling community. I think now that history has written the final chapters on both Konnan, Eddie Guerrero, and other Latin wrestlers, I think in the end, Konnan can be Hulk Hogan, Eddie Guerrero was the Latino Ric Flair, the perfect heel who fans loved. He was the dirtiest player, but at the same time he was so good you had to respect.

Rest in Peace Eddie... I will miss seeing you on TV. You were the last reason I continued to watch wrestling, and I will always remember shedding a tear seeing you win the title. I will remember the celebration in Fresno, in front of many Mexican flags, holding the WWE title as thousands of Latinos screamed Eddie, and knowing that God has a warrior up in Heaven ready to do his will. There will never be another.

I know man. It's still weird not seeing him on TV all of a sudden when he was in his prime. Just the guys story and how his life came to a sudden end is just depressing and shows you how you should make the most of what time you have here. Eddie did. He focused on his career, found faith in God, took care of his family. He became the best in the business. One thing for sure is he won't be forgotten.

RIP Eddie

You realize Konnan still wrestles weekly on TNA, right?  Saturday nights @ 10 or 11.

As I said "I think now that history has written the final chapters on both Konnan, Eddie Guerrero"
