I was at IPW:UK's event tonight and they announced it and had a minutes silence.
The end of the first match came with a frog splash just how Eddie did it, which some might see as a bit tasteless but others would see it as a mark of respect.
One of the biggest heels in the promotion did a "3 amigos" and then kissed his hand and pointed to the sky as if in honour of Eddie which i thought was cool of him. I hate the bloke but i respect him for that.
All wrestlers also had a black armband which was respectful.
This week on Smackdown i really felt myself getting behind Eddie with his old grin back to how it used to be before the Mysterio feud. He is really going to be missed.

They never do - it's Vince's paranoia with the law over compassion.

I bet quite a few of them are but there are are quite a few who aren't. The problem with dedication to this business is a terrible toll on your personal life.

He will and I believe Vince will be genuinely upset by the events but tomorrow he will be looking fo9r a replacement.
RIP.
It could make you think that they're all coke-fuelled steroid addicted monsters who are under so much pressure to do their full act 6 nights a week - 52 weeks a year - from the hands of bosses who can replace them, and get someone elses name being shouted in a month, should they not behave like morons and make a decision for themselves.
Is there any wrestler out there who's not on some substance? If I was forced to live my life like that, 5 cities a week, every sodding week of your life, I'd be on so much $hit I'd be dead in a few months.
R.I.P. Mr Guerrero, you will be missed by the fans, your family but not your idiotic bosses. Remember Vince McMahon saying "Everyone is replaceable, you just watch". As he was a major figure in Smackdown he will get a major tribute, but just remember all those who are used by the WWE, who get addicted to the lifestyle, then end up dead or drug addicted even when their wrestling days are behind them (anybody remember 'Beyond the Mat' with jake the snake roberts?), The War On Drugs?? Don't even get me started Mr Bush!!
R.I.P.
and die plz azul kthxbi
Eddie Guerrero was found in his hotel room in Minneapolis with his toothbrush in his mouth. He apparently died while brushing his teeth. At this point, the belief among WWE personnel is that Guerrero died of heart failure.
Shortly after Guerrero's body was found and removed from the room, Chris Benoit, Rey Mysterio, Dean Malenko and Chavo Guerrero visited the hotel room to say their goodbyes. WWE wrestlers and staffers were visibly shaken and emotional while leaving the hotel to go the Target Center, the site of tonight's Raw/Smackdown taping. Word from WWE sources is that the tenor of tonight's taping will be dramatically different and that the Smackdown show will need to be revised.
Damn steroids...
