A Tragic Anniversary

Sunday November 12, 2006
November 13, 2005 is a date that will forever be etched in the memory of every wrestling fan. That is the tragic day that Eddie Guerrero passed away. In honor of the great memories he has provided every wrestling fan, I would like to take this opportunity to celebrate the life of "Latino Heat."

Didn’t Eddie die because of the chair to the head by Kennedy – I noticed Kennedy was gone for awhile after that but then came back – I would really like to know the truth and the connection to the Kennedy/Guerrero match the night before – thanks

As the story goes Eddie died because of heart failure due to the irreversable damage the addictions did on his body.

The chair shot had ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with Eddie’s death. He died of heart failure.

eddie died from heart failure and drugs..it had nothing to do with kennedy chair shot

(11) ginger says:

Eddie died of Heart Failure…Period. WWE and his family stated that his Heart failed due to his PAST HISTORY of drug abuse and also him working out extremely hard to get his body back in shape. Eddie lived life to the extreme both ways, but I believe he was/is a good man. Viva La Raza…Eddie. I also believe Chris Benoit was a good man that had a lot of trouble and pain. But, Eddie’s death and Chris’ death should NOT be compared. Two different reasons entirely. R.I.P. To Eddie and Chris; You both will be forever missed. Heaven has a good Wrestling Team now!
Peace…..

(14) Guerrero for life says:

the chairshot was fake. he died because of heart failure and the drug abuse in his past years.

(15) Guerrero says:

The chair shot was fake, first of all. Eddie died because of drugs from his teen years and heart failure. Viva La Raza. Can you feel the heat? Latino Heat!!!
