Sad to see Eddie go, especially at this young age. He was a great wrestler, character, and performer.

R.I.P. old buddy, and thanks for all the memories.

Wow, I guess the drugs finally did it.

Unless foul play was involved, how else can you pass away at only 38 years of age?

cheating death and stealing life?
guess they can't release that book.

it's odd, when you hear about most wrestlers dieing it's because of drugs and
whatever, and usually after their career has ended.

Steroid use, I'm thinking.

I'm still in shock. Eddie was easily the best wrestler on the Smackdown roster. I followed his career ever since I saw his match against Rey Mysterio at Halloween Havoc 97. It's a real shame he had to go now. He was getting a main-event push and was set to win the World Heavyweight title tonight. With Eddie gone now I don't have a reason to watch Smackdown. R.I.P. Eddie, thanks for all the great memories.

You know, it would be so great when the WWE holds a tribute for Eddie tomorrow, then out of no where, Eddie shows up and makes fun of everyone saying they're bunch of idiots for crying and being sad for him. That would be the ultimate heel move ever. But that will most likely not happen. *sigh* R.I.P Eddie Guererro.

The only thing that's staged is the story lines and match results. Everything else is real in the sense that you can get fucked up.

Whats real fucked up is that I just recently got back into wrestling...

Poor guy beat Kennedy on Friday to advance in Survivoir Series...

Rest in Peace bro, you made lots of people smile throughout the years!

When I was younger I always had trouble sleeping. Back in 1995 I was up in the early morning hours one day and stumbled apon ECW. Having been a wrestling fan for years I figured I'd check it out. That same show they were showing highlights from a Eddie Guerrero Dean Malenko match. From that point on I was hooked on ECW. Pretty much have been following Eddie's matches ever since.
Just lastnight my brother in law and I were talking about Eddie for about 20 minutes, and I let him borrow my RF Video shoot interview with Eddie as well as my Cheating Death Stealing Life DVD. To think, as we were talking about him, he was already alone and dead in his hotel room.

So if your favorite actor died it wouldnt bother you I'm assuming.
Also with that logic I'd you could say Jimmy Fallon is just as good of an actor as say Harrison Ford.
Have some respect, the guy had a wife and 3 daughters all who are still small children.

Then how can an actor be good, you ignorant shit? Wow, it's all staged. Welcome to 1982, dipshit. The fact that it's all a staged performance rather than a live sporting event, doesn't lessen the tragedy of a person's early death.

Come on dude. Movies are meant to be imaginary. They don't put on these huge shows about rivalries between groups of wrasslers and their girlfriends/wives and try to be real.

Apples and oranges.

What gets me is that you idiots apparently know it's staged - and yet you still watch, and get into discussions about 'who's better' and 'who's gonna win'? That's fucking hilarious.

Your posts read like a 15 year old who just discovered how to be cynical by reading Maddox.

But I do agree that wrestling is probably the stupidest thing ever.

The point is, that the dead (be they famous or nobodies) are to be respected to some degree. Shit talking them just isn't cool.

I was actually kinda down when Mr. Perfect died....man, too bad about Eddie too.

No. It's a totally different thing. There's nothing more sad than watching someone act willfully ignorant for the sake of sarcasm.

I haven't really watched wrestling for years, but there is a physical aspect to it, even though it's staged and "match" results are scripted, and they do get injured like crazy -- everything from sprains, to broken bones, broken necks, spinal injuries, and occasionally death. They are on the road some ridiculous amount of the year, and have to perform many times a week. At any given time, a good portion of them are working injured, and many become addicted to pain killers.

Yeah... What always gets me is how it's so often the guy that calls himself "Christian" who is so ready to make light of someone's death, or put down what they do for a living as worthless. They must have special Smugness classes at Sunday School.

Yes...it's scripted...there's a reason why it's called Sports Entertainment!

It's about the acting...and the athletics...a soap opera, such as it is.

However, the wrestlers work up to 200 days a year doing what they do. That takes a toll on a body and it takes conditioning to do that job. And with any script or job, accidents do occur and things go awry.

Fake...yes but Mick Foley flying over 20 feet off the top of a cage into an announcers table...fake or not, that is seriously going to screw a body up big time...and because of things like that, wrestlers get hook easily on painkillers and other drugs. They also try and do moves to make the crowd go wild, ending up messing themselves up even more. Droz did such a move and ended up breaking his neck.

So far, the indication is that Eddie Guerrero had a heart attack. He did do painkillers and also was an alcoholic but had been sober for years.

You don't have to like the wrestling and its 'fakeness' but I respect the guys who do it...to them, it's a job just like anyone else does ;)

I just that don't care about anyone, and I'm above them all.

I must be confusing you with another member. Weren't you the guy who insisted the Bible was to be interpreted litterally, and all that other Christian-type stuff?

All I'm saying, is that it's an odd contrast between that, and the way you act here in general. Odd and disappointing that your conviction turns out to be such a superficial thing.

Useless, but insightful.

"boo hoo - Hulk Hogan died.. no more "Hogan Knows Best" on MTV.. waaaahhh"

Pleeease.

It's not so much that you don't care about his death, I can't say I do either. Not that I'm happy, but it doesn't effect me. I feel sorrow for his family to the furthest extent possible, but that's about it.

No, the problem with you is that you feel the need to post in this thread to make sure everyone knows that you just don't give a shit about this. You are the cool internet cynic after all. I bet you were a laugh riot with all your friends when Katrina hit eh? Comedy goldmine, and why not? You didn't know everyone who died, so it's a free reign for comedy. Or how about those damn kids in India making my Nike shoes that fall apart after a week? Beat'em harder I say lol. It's all a joke when you just don't give a fuck.

If you don't like wrestling or care about the passing of Eddie...to each their own. You're either into wrestling or you're not. No ill will from me toward anyone who cares or cares not. That's all I have to say ;)

Sounds a lot like the circus...

Also, isn't this like the 400th time you've tried to instult me using that argument? What is it with you, wes and a few other people that don't/can't let go of one point? Is it because you think that I'm going to feel bad because I said I read the bible - then download something and you call me on it? Come on, you should know better than that.

Maybe closer to the 3rd or 4th time, but yeah, I remember the evolution thing, I must be thinking about someone else with the 'Bible litterally' thing. Honestly, I get you smug superiority complex guys confused. If you're not a Christian, just disregard everything I said, as it doesn't apply to you. You're still an asshole to make light of someone's death, but at least less of a hypocrite.
