Man, now this is a shock. IIRC he was scheduled for a triple threat match with Batista and Benoit I believe. Batista apparently tore a muscle for real in a match with Kane and he was supposed to lose the title to either Eddie or Benoit. Well considering how Vince is running the WWE into the ground, he really can't afford to lose his wrestlers like this. Prayers offered for his family

In the press conference, Vinnie Mac called Eddie's nephew, Chavo Guerrero, 'the last of the bunch' when discussing the Guerrero's family presence in the wrestling biz over time.

Stuff sometimes comes out badly at times like this. A shame.

Battista is hurt and the word is they want the belt off him to get him to heal up. My gut tells me that the 3-way will still happen and that McMahon probably called up The Undertaker earlier today to take Guerreros place and since he is very popular, probably win the WWE Championship for a while. The problem is that brings Undertaker back to fast, but it's a 'situation.' That gives him a natural program with Randy Orton, who can win the title again and lose it to Battista when he is all healed up.

The irony (and borderline tastelessness) of having The Undertaker substitute for Guerrero and win the WWE Championship at the Eddie Guerrero Tribute show on the day Guerrero passed away will be lost on everyone at the WWE Front Office.
