Eddie Guerrero is one of the most beloved professional wrestlers in the history of the business, and unfortunately he passed away far too soon.
The former WWE Champion’s last match aired on the November 5, 2005 episode of SmackDown, and he faced off against former Money in the Bank winner Mr. Kennedy.
Mr. Kennedy recently spoke to Sportskeeda about facing Eddie in his final match, and he also revealed what the Hall of Famer said to him after.
“I’m just fortunate to have been able to wrestle Eddie in any capacity. It sucks that it was his last match, but he was awesome. I remember after the match he had a few things. You know, a few corrections, just taking my time a little more in the beginning and I remember, I’ve probably told this on here before, but I have answered this question probably a million times. It’s the most asked question ever. But I remember it ended with me hitting him with the chair. That was the last thing. I smacked him over the head with the chair. I was always taught, if you are going to swing a chair, like if you are going to do it, do it right. Nothing worse than seeing someone, you know, pull a chair shot. I hit him, plus it was for TV, it was always another thing, you know, house shows, you are super light with each other. Trying not to hurt each other too bad, but TV, if you’re going to do something, lay it in a little more. And he came back and was like, ‘Woah, bro; you got me!'”
