I was at the IPW show today when they announced that Eddie was gone!
The wrestlers & the audience performed a 1 minute silence in his honour,and most of the wrestlers wore black armbands as a show of respect!

To say the crowd was shocked,would be putting it mildly.

Eddie chants echoed through the hall several times during the night,as some wrestlers did signature Eddie Guerrero moves,to show that he is gone but not forgotten.

Most poignant moment of the night though went to a guy who called Eddie "friend".

Vampiro came out early in the night,dressed in his street clothes,minus his trademark makeup,and told a story of how he,Eddie & various other wrestlers came up together.
He told how they shared a house & how Eddie was his mentor.
He said that all he was interested in was getting famous & didnt want to train,but Eddie kicked his arse & had many arguments with him,which all ended up with him having a 21 year career,and having the degree of fame & success he has had up to these days!

It was emotional,but as Eddie would surely have said,the show must always go on!

My deepest sympathies go out to his wife,his children,Chavo Sr & Jr,plus anyone else who loved him!

Tonight theres a little less heat in this world as the Latino flame has gone out!
