![]() Eddie and his fellow WCW defectors would be called the Radicalz.Īround mid-2001, Eddie would disappear from WWE television and miss the WCW Invasion storyline. ![]() Ultimately, Chyna and Eddie would break up and Eddie would go back to team with his buddies, Saturn, Malenko, and Benoit. One notable scene was when he tried to go to the Playboy Mansion to get Chyna and bail. There were segments where Eddie would hilariously flip out. However, things really came to a head when Chyna was announced to pose for Playboy. One moment was where Eddie accidentally pinned Chyna to win his first Intercontinental Championship and the look on his face was hilarious. Their romantic storyline got them over and it also had its funny moments. But Eddie did it under the mantra of “Latino Heat” and I was intrigued by the chemistry he had with Chyna. I found it amazing that Eddie, smaller wrestler, would somehow charm the tall and muscular Amazonian Chyna who was portrayed as a no-nonsense female wrestler. One of my earliest memories of Eddie was when he swept Chyna off her feet and started calling her his “mamacita” after winning the European Championship from Chris Jericho. He was that believable and he was starting to grow on me during a part of my adolescent years. The wrestler was funny and tough, and whether he portrayed a face (hero) or a heel (villain), he got the crowds in the arenas and those watching at home to react. In addition to having an amazing wrestling ability, Guerrero had a swagger and wit that I couldn’t help but admire. ![]() But overtime, as I saw him in the ring and his character develop, he was slowly becoming a favorite. When I first saw Eddie, I obviously did not know who he was other than he was just a WCW guy.
