Jim Ross remembers Eddie Guerrero

It has been eight years since the death of Eddie Guerreo

As noted, yesterday marked 8 years since Eddie Guerrero passed away. Jim Ross posted his latest blog here remembering “Latino Heat.” In the blog, Ross recalled his first meeting with Eddie and signing him to WWE, as well as the highs and lows that Eddie experienced with the company. He also wrote about Eddie’s legacy in the business.

“Eddie was only 38 years of age when he passed away suddenly of heart issues on November 13, 2005 and no one ever I’ve known has left a more memorable legacy in the pro wresting biz in only 38 years on Earth than the unforgettable Eddie Guerrero,” Ross wrote.

“Any company who puts an automatic size limit on how big wrestlers must be to be hired with WWE, TNA. etc are making a huge mistake. Because one never knows on that rare occasion when one might find another amazingly gifted, passionate, charismatic, in ring genius who’s all of 5’8″ and reminds us all of the WWE Hall of Famer Eddie Guerrero.”
