Eddie was probably the funniest wrestler in the ring, on the mike, and in many of the hilarious antics he pulled in the scenes before his matches.
I remember near the end when he was partnered with Batista. This one time Eddie was sitting there eating takeout Mexican food in a foam tray. Batista grabbed it and ate it, not knowing that Eddie laced it with a laxative I think. Hilarious stuff - vintage Eddie.
I remember long ago when he was partnered with Chyna and he would call her "Mamacita". He sweet talked to her when, I believe, she had the Intercontinental title for a short while and he sneaked in a pin to steal the title from her. Good stuff!
Who can forget when he would drive into the ring each week in a different low rider? I loved seeing a new car each week and seeing Eddie's huge grin outside the window as the car hopped.
I remember seeing Eddie Guerrero's last match on November 11, 2005, the day before my birthday, with Ken Kennedy. Eddie did his vintage three amigos and the ending was hilarious when Eddie saw the ref was down, he picked up a chair, hit the mat, tossed the chair to Kennedy, and fell down on the mat just as the ref turned around and disqualified Kennedy. Hilarious. It was goo to see his last match end with fans chanting "Eddie, Eddie, Eddie!"
Two days later, on November 13, 2005, I heard Eddie was found dead. It seen cold chills down my back because he looked so healthy just two days before. I was shocked and my eyes were wet. I watched his tribute on the 14th and grew even sadder to hear how he was loved outside of the ring by all of the other wrestlers.
I hated how McMahon, Orton, Chavo, Rey, and Vicky used Eddie's name after he died but that's another topic.
I'm glad that he was able to have such a good, fun match as his last. He went out lying, cheating, and stealing - a normally bad set of terms that Eddie made positive as only he could.
I will miss you, Eddie!

If you were a wrestler you would have been Eddie. Sad that he died but a great tribute
I've never watched professional wrestling, but this is an interesting article ;-) Sounds like he was a cool guy!
Yeah...that was sad....wrestling lost its funnybone.
He was a great entertainer. :)
