“Eddie Guerrero is my number one. He is the reason I am in the WWE. I wanted to be the female version of him.”

Banks also revealed that Eddie’s wife Vickie Guerrero has been very kind to the former WWE RAW Women’s Champion, and even gifted her a pair of Eddie Guerrero’s tights.

“She once actually gave me a pair of Eddie Guerrero’s tights, and she has absolutely no idea what that means to me!”
“I just hope that I am just making Eddie and his name proud. I am not related to them, but he had a huge impact on my life. I wouldn’t be here as a person if it wasn’t for Eddie Guerrero.”
“It’s cool to see, when I do autograph signings, people actually get me to sign things of Eddie, yet there are a lot of people who’ve never seen an Eddie Guerrero match.”

Banks is making waves in WWE, but she has shown her love for Latino Heat by wearing gear inspired by the late Superstar and also by performing a couple of his moves in the ring.
