Rey Mysterio took to Instagram today to express the emotions that overcame him when he visited the grave of his longtime friend Eddie Guerrero earlier this week. The WWE Hall of Famer passed away in November 2005 at the age of 38 due to acute heart failure. His legacy inspired almost everyone in the business today including Mysterio who admitted it was the first time he had visited Guerrero since his passing.
In the post, Mysterio states:
“Always had a hard time wanting to visit Eddie & found myself cowardly refusing it due to the pain & memories from that day. Finally, this past Monday, after 13 years, I had the courage to visit him and have a one-on-one moment with him & exactly what I feared of happening, happened. Memories from that day were flashing through my head, but his presence was much stronger and [I] was able to cope and maintain my composure.
“After my conversation & connection with him I left with a huge internal smile and felt a soothing & peaceful! Eddie has been such an inspiration not only to me but to many & will always continue to do so. I witnessed that day, that future wrestlers who never had the opportunity to meet him took the time to stop by and pay their respects wishing they would of had the honor and privilege to have met him & been around him like many of us did! I truly miss you WeeWeeto!”
