Damaramu 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2005 What the fuck? Oh my god this sucks. I loved Eddie and I was so happy when I heard that Batista was injured because I thought it meant that Eddie would get another run with the title. Now he's gone. Shocking. Unbelievable.

Guest Brian Report post Posted November 13, 2005 Fuck. Fuck all of this shit. Fuck. I'm really fucking pissed. Eddie was cleaned up, and he was one of the good ones again. He was my fucking idol.

k thx 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2005 I wonder if they're going to rewrite the entire Supershow tonight or just cancel it altogether. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They won't cancel it, but I'm sure they'll get rid of the main event slot for a tribute at the very least. I'd imagine that Chavo will get a win and there will be some sort or tribute match with his friends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BruiserKC 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2005 I have no idea what to say here. At first I thought it was one of those bad rumors that somehow get started about a big-time wrestler passing that finds their way around the Net once every couple of months. I lower my head for the ten-bell salute to him...I really don't have anything else to say at this moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest *KNK* Report post Posted November 13, 2005 Thi might be the saddest death I've personally felt in regards to professional wrestling. Owen's death was so sudden and shocking that it took time to let in sink in. This is a case of someone who fought so hard to beat his demons and did so and was on the right path and was getting back to his natural high of a year before...then as we all learned this sunday morning, You cant really prepare for anything. All the speculation about who would and should take the WWE title doesnt matter anymore, and as we learned, never really mattered because we can't control these types of events, we can't predict them. It's yet again, although cliche, a lesson to learn. I want to say im completely shocked but I'm not, I've become numb to the lost of not just professional wrestlers but any strong figures and role models in our society. I'm just sad for his beautiful family, his strong support in that locker room and across EVERY locker room in the world from the TNA locker-room in Orlando right now, to the OVW locker room in Louisville and all the small indies and japan promotions, this is a sad day for the wrestling world.

iliketurtles 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2005 I know that it's hard to talk about what to do tonight, but I'd honestly strongly consider cancelling the show and refunding everyone. I'd replace RAW this week with the Eddie Guerrero DVD in honor of him, edited for TV time, and on Friday night I'd have a Eddie Guerrero's best matches or something like that in order to save time on UPN and USA> Then next week, have a live tribute on RAW...and go from there. I don't see that happening, but that's how I'd handle the situation. It's going to be hard enough to go on the European Tour for everyone, let alone try to wrestle tonight.

Team Angle Pusher 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2005 I hope the WWE does the right thing and put the belt on Chris Benoit. PLEASE don't put the belt on Randy Orton, or any other Heel for that matter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest *KNK* Report post Posted November 13, 2005 It's not important at all right now, but one of my thoughts right now is, how does this affect Chris Benoit's desire to stay with the company. He lost one of his best friends and the one guy who went along with him for the entire ride from Japan to ECW to WCW and WWE and they shared the spotlight on the greatest stage together not so long ago. There's so many why's, what if's and how's in my mind right but all that matters really is... WHO. and that who was someone very significant in the world that all of us love in some form or another.

I wish I had watched Smackdown more often now. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm kicking myself for not tuning in last Friday...this week's programming will be absolutely surreal.

Team Angle Pusher 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2005 I've been thinking bout Benoit as well but don't you think he'll stay now for sure because Eddie wanted him to stay. Out of respect for Eddie he stays in the WWE and puts on the best matches ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tpww7 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2005 I know it shouldnt be speculated on but... Maybe he had some anxiety attack about getting the belt back again and it led to something else?

RIP Eddie. God Bless you and keep you. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> WWE News WWE News: More notes on Eddie Guerrero's death By Wade Keller, Torch editor Nov 13, 2005, 11:22 Eddie Guerrero had breakfast this morning with Chavo Guerrero and at least one other wrestler, then returned to his hotel room. When he didn't come out of his room in the expected amount of time, friends went looking for him and found him dead. Guerrero has a long history of battling pain pill addiction, a struggle that was chronicled in a UPN special last year which is now on DVD. There is no firm confirmation, though, at this time, that his death was related to his lifelong battle. http://www.pwtorch.com/artman/publish/article_15352.shtml Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Duke_The_Dog Report post Posted November 13, 2005 Another news site: As I am sure you will all understand, the reaction to Eddie Guerrero's sudden passing has blindsided everyone I talked to in WWE this morning. The workers I have spoken to about it are just numb and shocked. The word I have gotten is that the company has decided to make both the Raw and Smackdown shows at tonight's combined taping in Minneapolis tribute shows to Eddie. The usual format for the shows has been changed to instead incorporate tributes to Eddie. I still can't believe he's gone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RIP Eddie. God Bless you and keep you. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I guess it's somewhat comforting to know that Eddie got to be with his nephew one last time. It's safe to assume that the last person he had any contact with was Chavo. Of course, you have to wonder if the breakfast had anything to do with it, but I wouldn't expect it.
