WWE Superstar Rey Mysterio, the iconic luchador, recently took to social media to pay an emotional tribute to his late friend and WWE Hall of Famer, Eddie Guerrero. In a heartfelt tweet, Mysterio shared a video produced by WWE, highlighting Guerrero’s remarkable legacy and impact on the wrestling world. The video showcased various wrestlers, luchadors and non-luchadors alike, replicating Guerrero’s signature frog splash, a testament to the enduring influence of the late wrestling legend.
Mysterio’s tweet was accompanied by a caption that quoted the opening lines of Guerrero’s entrance theme, “Viva La Raza,” a nod to the strong bond and deep respect the two wrestlers shared. Guerrero’s untimely passing on November 13, 2005, left a void in the wrestling community, and Mysterio has consistently honored his memory, keeping his legacy alive in his heart.
Just six months prior, Mysterio had penned a heartfelt note about how his son, Dirty Dom, could have benefited from Guerrero’s guidance had he been alive today. With November 2023 marking the 18th anniversary of Guerrero’s passing, Mysterio took to Instagram to share a poignant post, reflecting on what could have been if Guerrero were still with us. In an alternate scenario, Guerrero’s path would have likely crossed with Dominik Mysterio’s in WWE, sparking a fascinating and intriguing possibility.
Through his tweets and posts, Mysterio continues to keep Guerrero’s memory alive, ensuring that his friend’s legacy endures. Meanwhile, the veteran wrestler remains an active force in WWE, delivering top-tier matches that thrill fans worldwide. Rumors are circulating about an upcoming match where Mysterio might put his iconic mask on the line, a challenge that would test the mettle of even the most seasoned luchador.
As Mysterio prepares to face this new challenge, his tribute to Guerrero serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of their friendship and the lasting impact of Guerrero’s legacy on the wrestling world.
