The 5’8” superstar was one of the biggest attractions on SmackDown during his successful career before his tragic death.

Eddie Guerrero pulled off his greatest heist at No Way Out in 2004 by defeating The Beast Brock Lesnar, a rare feat in the WWE, and won the World Heavyweight Championship in the process.

Guerrero held the title for four months, before losing it to JBL at The Great American Bash. The superstar who loved to Lie, Cheat, Steal was extremely good at what he did and was the company’s top villainous character.

He tragically passed away in 2005, at the age of only 38 years, after winning 23 titles in the WWE. There is little doubt that had he lived on for longer, he would have won the championship at least once more.

The Superstar was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in the Class of 2006.
