UZI Suicide 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2005 While the Rey Mysterio/Eddie Guerrero custody saga might come off as a run-of-the-mill soap opera storyline to the many WWE viewers, to one person, the pain and anguish expressed by the performers is all too real. According to PWTorch.com, young Dominick is currently suffering from emotional distress related to the angle. While he's obviously heavily briefed as to its fiction, sources indicate that between witnessing his father cry, Eddie Guerrero portray a heartless villain and thousands of live fans sell the angle as legitimate, it would be impossible for someone in Dominick's position not to experience some sort of trauma. The custody battle, which is the latest development in an ongoing feud between Guerrero and Mysterio, will lead to another match between the two at Summerslam. The backstage reaction to the on-air performances has been overwhelmingly positive, a reaction that goes hand-in-hand with the fact that the segments continue to draw very well for WWE SmackDown. Ah, suck it up kid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slickster 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2005 Well, I'm guessing that Rey felt that being able to show off some semblance of character depth would be good for both himself and Eddie. While I wouldn't have had Rey beat Eddie in both of their prior matchups, I'd rather have Rey and Eddie get a chance to do a 'serious' storyline than to be saddled with midcard-level angles. I mean, you can only have Rey and Eddie do 'respect' feuds and 'one partner double-crosses the other' angles for so long before it gets a little repetitive.

cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2005 I actually wondered if something like this would happen. I mean now for the rest of his life people are going to tease Dominic about this whole thing and think Eddie is his real dad.

cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2005 Well in this case it doesn't seem like it's just Vince. It was Rey who apparently thought up this angle and wanted his son involved. Am I the only one who thinks it's a mistake to let Rey reveal his personality in an angle? Think about it, when he's at his most over it's usually when he's just getting in and wrestling. Bischoff also had the idea of taking his mask off to make him more marketable, but that resulted in Rey's most irritating work ever (No Limit anyone?). Now he's showing more personality but also accidentally coming off like a dick, he's become the live action Roadrunner to Eddie's Coyote. His whole spiel making fun of Eddie for not beating him only makes me want to side with Eddie in the end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MillenniumMan831 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2005 I really think Eddie should have been the one to issue the challenge w/ Rey reluctantly accepting. Not Rey all too eager to get Eddie in the ring at the potential expense of his son. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BruiserKC 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2005 It somehow wouldn't surprise me, Vince being Vince...to have actually considered putting Dominic himself at the top of the ladder. Could be the most riveting match of its kind since Colonel DeBeers battled Jake "The Milkman" Milliman in a turkey-on-a-pole match in the dying days of the AWA. Then again...it could royally suck ass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
