Dean Malenko Remembers Eddie Guerrero: “Wrestling Fans Have Never Forgotten and Will Never Forget Eddie Guerrero”

eddie guerreroFormer WCW star and current WWE backstage agent Dean Malenko recently spoke with The UK Sun to remember Eddie Guerrero, and below are some interview highlights:

On his match with Guerrero at WCW Starrcade ’97:

“We’d always try different things every night — see what worked, what didn’t work. And we fell into something, some kind of move – and the place started going crazy.

“I grabbed Eddie in a rear chin lock, and he goes: ‘Listen to the crowd! They’re going nuts!’

“I looked over my right shoulder into the audience, and everybody’s looking up into the tiered seating. There was a girl who had lifted her shirt off and was well-endowed and entertaining the menfolk there in the crowd. So I turned to Eddie and said: ‘This is what they’re popping on, buddy.’

On Seth Rollins using the frog splash:

“Seth [Rollins] had a match with Kane and he hit a frog splash off the top. And the crowd responded by chanting Eddie’s name, and it gave me goosebumps.

“Wrestling fans have never forgotten and will never forget Eddie Guerrero.”
