Sadly Eddie died last night in Minnesota. Why couldn't it have been Chris Masters?
here is the pwtorch.com article: Eddie Guerrero was found in his hotel room in Minneapolis with his toothbrush in his mouth. He apparently died while brushing his teeth. At this point, the belief among WWE personnel is that Guerrero died of heart failure.
Shortly after Guerrero's body was found and removed from the room, Chris Benoit, Rey Mysterio, Dean Malenko and Chavo Guerrero visited the hotel room to say their goodbyes. WWE wrestlers and staffers were visibly shaken and emotional while leaving the hotel to go the Target Center, the site of tonight's Raw/Smackdown taping. Word from WWE sources is that the tenor of tonight's taping will be dramatically different and that the Smackdown show will need to be revised.
Guerrero's death is now the lead story on WWE.com, under the headline "Tragic Loss". The article says that WWE is "deeply saddened" by Guerrero's death, and provides no further details on his passing.

I just found out about this when I arrived at work...
This is a sad day for wrestling, Eddie had brought himself from being held in mid-card mediocrity under Eric Bischoff to main-event superstar status with WWE. His loss will be felt deeply by his fans and friends.

WWE put on a hell of a tribute show. I know Eddie would have been pleased.

Definitely.
Regal-Flair, Rey-HBK...
And I'm not afraid to say it, when Benoit was talking I wound up crying like a little girl with a skinned knee.
