Chyna and eddie guerrero7/3/2023 But with the WWE Network, their legacies – and the legacies of so many others – are alive and well. It’s unlikely that we’ll see Chyna back with the company she did so much for anytime soon. Unfortunately, Eddie’s not with us anymore. I’d forgotten how funny his segments could be, and how the slightest expression – the wide-eyed look of wonder when he “accidentally” defeated Chyna for a championship – could create such a sense of fun a reminder to me why just so many people loved the Attitude Era above and beyond the wilder elements that usually define it.įor someone like Chyna, the WWE Network offers longtime fans a reminder of why she was such a big part of the Attitude era, and for newer fans, allows them to see past the charicature that she can often come accross as to the fans who weren’t on hand to see her blaze a trail for future Divas, by offering up not just an unlikely image of what a heroine and sex-symbol could be, but by allowing us to remember the curious study of contrasts that made her one of the shining lights of the era she helped define. But with the help of the new network, I was reminded of what an incredible entertainer he was, as well. Of course, anyone who was around when Eddie wrestled remebers what an amazing in-ring performer eddie was. “I also had the chance to revisit an old friend who is no longer with us – Eddie Guerrero. But with this new WWE network, abandoning the product completely would seem kind of futile, especially in a house full of WWE fans.” I mentioned a couple of days ago that I might stop watching “Raw” for a little while…and I might. Promo Time: Chyna Oh come on now, this is not an acceptable way to open a show Chyna shows us footage from HeAT where Eddie Guerrero brought out The Kat. But much as I felt when I was working elsewhere, and had to accept that my own kids preferred the WWE product to the product my company was offering, I had to make a decision: stop watching WWE out of protest for the one thing I felt like they were doing wrong (which they still might get right) and miss out on that valuable family bonding time WWE provides us….or agree to disagree with WWE on an issue or two, and enjoy all the good things they do with my family. “Yes, I’ve been outspoken lately about a couple of things in WWE. The relationship hit the skids thanks to Guerrero’s cheating ways and when the star announced that she was going to pose naked for Playboy, a series of vignettes were shot at the Playboy Mansion in which ‘Latino Heat’ would attempt to gain access in order to stop her going through with the shoot.WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley has a new Facebook post where he talks about watching Chyna and Eddie Guerrero on the WWE Network. As far as all the stuff that Chyna did, Eddie was her best benching partner for me.” ![]() Him and liked each other, they enjoyed working together. It didnt matter how talented Eddie was - he wasnt getting near. Eddie had come into that world and really started doing well, Eddie pulled it off. He held the WCW cruiserweight title and the US championship. business was all sports entertainment, it had no basis in old school pro wrestling. ![]() He was at the top of his game in the sports entertainment aspect. It was obvious Eddie Guerrero was one of the top, whatever small number you want to anointed, workers in the world. Now Jim Ross has sat down on his Grilling JR Podcast to talk about the dynamic of the pair on and off screen, stating that it was Eddie who was more invested in the storyline: The only snag was that the person who made the deciding fall would be crowned champion. ![]() In a bid to aid her lover to the prize, Chyna teamed with Eddie at SummerSlam to battle Trish Stratus and Val Venis with the gold on the line. However, all wasn’t as it seemed and twenty four hours later on Monday Night Raw Chyna succumbed to the advances, turned heel on Chris Jericho and helped her new beau capture the WWF European Championship.įollowing a mini-feud with Essa Rios and Lita, descension became apparent in the relationship when Guerrero eyed the WWF Intercontinental Championship which his Mamacita had already held. The enmity resulted in a 6-Man Tag Team Match at WrestleMania 2000 where ‘The Ninth Wonder of the World’ teamed with Too Cool to defeat Guerrero, Saturn and Malenko. As WrestleMania season approached in 2000, Chyna left the WWF Intercontinental Championship behind her and began a feud with The Radicalz – Eddie Guerrero, Chris Benoit, Perry Saturn and Dean Malenko – thanks to the seemingly unwanted affections directed at her by ‘Latino Heat.’
