As much as I loved their matches during this fued and Eddie's whole heel persona, I just found it hilarious that a custody battle took place in a ladder match rather than court. Only in the WWE lol!

Not at all, it was a little different and a little stupid but it wasn't Rey/Randy Orton stupid.

I actually liked every bit of the storyline and Eddie a pretty great heel too and I'm also hoping for his theme song to be released someday.

Terrible, Terrible idea and the fact that Rey went through with it is ed up IMO. That's the only time i have ever disliked Rey and it was because i knew he agreed to do such a disrespectful storyline revolving around someones actual death, and someone that Rey was supposed to be very tight with. I dont know but me personally i wouldn't have done it ever, it was just bad taste and Rey agreeing to do it just makes him look like an bunghole if i'm being honest.

People actually liked that ladder match? Stupid storyline built into a pointless and terrible match.

As stupid some people may say about this storyline, it was clearly one of Eddie Guerrero's best promo work. For 2005, I am surprised they got away with this. Oh wait, people in 2005 were as PC as the people of today. Eddie Guerrero is one of those rare breed of performers who has the crowd on the palm of his hands. Face or heel, he could easily do it.
It saddens me to think that he was taken from us when he was finally hitting his stride in the WWE. The stuff with him and Batista was just awesome.

Tasteless storyline. I mean, not much more tasteless than anything that happened during the true attitude era, it just felt really out of place during SD! in the mid-2000's where actual wrestling was the focal point and put on display.
Basically, it wasn't necessarily to make their feud compelling. They went to lengths and used parlor tricks when you could've just given us the heel turn and phenomenal matches.
Having both their wives and Dominick involved only lowered the performance level because all of them were horrendous actors (as was Rey).

Being that I was in middle school during this feud, it was uncomfortable to watch. Maybe if I was 17 during this feud, I would have a different perspective.

I've heard that Eddie suggested Dominick's involvement, but Rey didn't and shouldn't of agreed to it.

For me the entire deal just stank......Eddie went from fun loving face to this guy? I know heel turns had to be executed some way.....but man this whole deal made me say WTF every time I watched SD!.

Absolutely not, this storyline was absolutely hilarious, but I do feel like it dragged on FOR too long NOT that it went too far.

This is the feud that made me realize wrestling was preplanned. I was on the wwe chat thing they had and someone said Eddies secret revealed with a link so I clicked it and it gave me smack down spoilers, which wasn't bad but then I read other articles and kayfabe died for me. Loved the feud though

Loved the feud though I had something very similar happen. I was watching an episode of Raw and one of my dads friends spoiled the winner of the Cena/Benoit SD tournament finals on SD! And then proceeded to tell me that smackdown was pre-taped and the winners were set up.....boy was i confused but it didn't ruin anything for me thankfully.

What theme is it you're talking about? I think I listened to it once but forgotten the name or what it sounded like.
