EDDIE GUERRERO 1967-2005
Here's to WWE wrestler Eddie Guerrero who passed away yesterday. The world of wrestling lost one of its brightest stars.
It's kinda hard to believe that he died. I made the rounds of the internet sites, hoping that it was a hoax. His wrestling persona was well known for the tricks he would play just to get ahead. Unfortunately, the news was true. If you aren't a fan of professional wrestling, I suggest you find some of his matches. You'll quickly change your mind.

I just realized that so many wrestlers I grew up watching have passed on. God has so many of them, he could have a WrestleMania in heaven - he just got himself a main-eventer.
Let's run down the names of some of those who have gone up to that great big wrestling ring in the sky:
Owen Hart, Yokozuna, Rick Rude, Mr.Perfect, Andre the Giant, Road Warrior Hawk, The British Bulldog, Hercules Hernandez, Dino Bravo, Big John Studd, Junkyard Dog, Gorilla Monsoon, Big Boss Man. Even Miss Elizabeth.
I wonder why so many wrestlers die so young.
I enjoyed your blog. I wrote a similar one about how so many wrestlers have died at a young age. I think the line spoken to Roddy Piper is telling: "If you're going to die kid, die in the ring. It's good for business."
