Well, tomorrow is the 3-year anniversary of the passing of Eddie Guerrero. So i decided to make a thread, and i hope this is the right place for it. Post your favorite Eddie moments, banners, or just discuss.

Isn't it 3 years? So sad, i've never really watched wrestling with a passion, since Eddie was alive.
One of my most favourtite moments EVER! was when he won the WWE title.

I also want to say that I really hope no one decides to be disrespectful with a post complaining about the amount of Eddie Guerrero topics. Please be respectful in the thread.
My favorite moment with Eddie has been marred, as it was the Wrestlemania XX celebration with Benoit at the end of the PPV. I guess right now, it would have to be beating Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship. I also loved when he beat Rey Mysterio in a steel cage match after months of trying to beat him. It had such a fantastic ending.
Favorite Eddie matches...obviously, Halloween Havoc 1997 against Rey Mysterio is amazing. I LOVELOVELOVE his No DQ match from Smackdown! 2002 against Edge and I'm thrilled it's on the new DVD. His match at Wrestlemania XX against Kurt Angle was great as well. We'll leave it at those three right now.

I'll never forget the day I found out.. I dont remember exactly where I had gone, But I was gone for the weekend and I couldnt access the internet. So I came home and did my normal routine of checking myspace, and such. So I got on WWE.com and I saw the headline...
I sat here in disbelief, I didn't want to believe it.. Then It was all over the net.. I can honestly sit here and admit that I cried when I found out. Eddie was such an entertainer and he always did his best to entertain us no matter what.
He was truly one of my all time favorites and after he passed away, I lost a lot of interest in professional wrestling. Theres truly so many moments in Eddie's career that I could mention and I'm sure will be mentioned in this thread.
Eddie winning the title, Eddie Vs Rey at Halloween Havoc, Latino Heat, Just everything the man did, Whether a heel or a face.. He put on one hell of a show.
Rest in Peace Eddie, We miss you...

When Eddie died.. It was in the same caliber as Kennedy getting assasinated and the 9/11 bombings and school shootings.. you remember exactly where you were when you heard/found out about it.
Everyone was talking about it at school and the wrestling fans that actually knew who he was were struck hard. Eddies death is probably wrestling's saddest lost.. Even sadder than owen harts death just because of Eddies history.. He overcame his problems and it caught up with him in the peak of his popularity.

Three years has gone so fast. Still feels like only the other day I was watching him wrestle on SmackDown! every week. Such a flawless performer, so fluid, charismatic, entertaining, he had it all. Eddie was so unique in everything he did. He left us with so many great memories and matches, I don't think I could pick just one. If ever there was a more fitting time to use the expression "timeless classics", it'd be when describing an Eddie Guerrero match. Don't really know what else to say other than thanks Eddie for the memories, and he'll never, ever be forgotten. One of a kind, one in a million. RIP Eddie.

Man, I still get teary eyed watching that Eddie tribute..
Man, who didn't like watching that guy? I mean, during his time they tried to turn him heel (like austin) and the crowd just went even more nuts when he did something to a face wrestler.
I remember him and chavo had random ass skits as well, comedy skits of lying cheating and stealing...they were awesome.

When I found out I was in shock, but it turned to pure sadness when RAW is Eddie came on the air.

I loved his matches and the way he cheat to win. also when he spoke spanglish. Ive been planning on wearing my Eddie shirt tomorrow. Almost everyday I say that I miss him. Whenever I see Vickie Guerrero I think of Eddie. When I see a mexican person I think of him. The words lie, cheat and steal make me think of him.

I have to say, one of my fav Eddie Guerrero moments has to be the 2005 Royal Rumble where he stole Ric Flair's Rumble number then reveals that he also stole his wallet. Fantastic.

i think for me it would have to be seeing him live at a house show vs the big show. it was in aberdeen, scotland. i had heard rumours that wrestlers "phoned in" their performances when they came across to the uk but eddie put on a great performance and had a fantastic match against the big show. (eddie won)
RIP eddie guerrero and thanks for giving me that memory!

I was shocked when i found out... i thought it was a hoax until the RAW tribute... The moment when i truely knew it wasn't a hoax was when i saw Benoits video to him... i'll admit i got a little teary eyed.

This is a little bit of an eerie story.
I had went to my local KB Toys on a hunt for some figures. There was an Adrenaline series that featued Eddie Guerrero and Booker T. I decided to purchae the set because I liked the attire on the Eddie figure; it actually reminded me of his 2000 run in the WWF. I came home and came onto WF and I didn't immediaetly go to the Pro-Wrestling: WWE board. Instead, I saw about 100 sigs of Eddie Guerrero and finally I went to WWE.com and read that he had died. I just felt soooo weird because I bought that Eddie Guerrero figure without knowing he had died.
