It's true, we all die young. I can honestly say I am deeply saddend by the loss of Eddie Gurerro.
When I watch wrestler I get attached to my favorites and being I have been lucky to meet them and I even exchange e mails with some of them.
I have been fortunate to meet Eddie once in my life.
I met Eddie at a WCW house show. I was ring side and during a match Eddie came down to ringside and sat a seat over from mer in the crowd cause he was fueding
with someone in the ring(that I can't remember lol)But when he at down he was flooded by people wanting autographs or pictures and he sat there during not
only the match he was watching but the next match two and igned sutographs and took picture with people. I know some wrestlers are jerks when it coems to giving fans the time of day but Eddie seemed to enjoy it and he literally has of signed 100 or more autographs and took about 50 pictures. he even took time to talk to the people who asked for a autograph and then when he stood up I asked for a hug and he seem glad to give one and also sign my t shirt even made a joke that it was a red and black NWO shirt. Eddie was, is and always will be one of my all time favorties cause he was so diverse and could be a heel a face a neutral and no matter what people still loved him. He was a good man and a awesome athelete and I for one was shocked and deeply saddened by the loss of this wonderful human being who loved his fans and never dissapoint them and gave them everything he has in the ring and out. Eddie is a legend who will live on thru his fans and family.
He was a great man and I have cried a few tiems cause honestly it felt like I had lost a friend bring I have followed his career and good or bad I was and always will be a Eddie fan. It may sound funny but when youw atch someone for so long and you know lots about them and you have follwed their career for eyars you kinda of feel like they are a friend in someway. I can say that my memories of him and my memory of meeting this extrodinary man will always live in my heart. May he Rest In peace.
