Now, on paper, the odds were completely stacked against Eddie, but in everybody's heart, deep down they wanted him to conquer The Beast. And he did just that. Albeit with some interference from Goldberg, an unconscious referee and some help from the WWE Championship belt, Eddie did the unthinkable.
He became WWE Champion for the first time in his career, and sent the WWE Universe into a frenzy. It was a proud moment for Eddie Guerrero, for the fans, and for the legacy of the Guerrero family.
It was a moment that you could feel through the TV screen watching at home. Emotions were high and it was a victory for all of us and will go down as Eddie's greatest ever moment in WWE. Viva La Raza. We still miss him.
