JBL thanks Eddie Guerrero for bringing the best out of him

Eddie vs JBL

In an interview with Wrestling Inc JBL says Eddie Guerrero was a big influence on him being a successful singles wrestler and brought the best out in him. The two had a great feud for the WWE Championship after he went from APA Bradshaw to the pompous John Bradshaw Layfield.

"A lot of my promo, Eddie really helped me with a lot of these promos as far as the content of it. Eddie really took it personal in that he wanted my character to get over because it was failing miserably at the beginning,” recalls JBL. “If we just had three or four weeks, I don't think it would have worked. But we had time, I think five or six weeks to try this. It finally started working and it finally started getting heat on the JBL character, mainly because of Eddie."
