The wrestling community recently observed the 21st anniversary of the death of WWE legend Eddie Guerrero.
Guerrero, a native of El Paso, died on Nov. 13, 2005, at the age of 38, according to WWE.
To mark the occasion, fellow wrestler Chris Jericho paid tribute to the late star by performing his signature frog splash maneuver, as reported by Yahoo Sports.
Longtime friend and rival Rey Mysterio also took to social media to share his respects.
“21 yrs today,” Mysterio wrote on Facebook, adding, “Love & miss you WeeWeeto!!”
Guerrero’s daughter, Sherilyn Guerrero, honored her father by sharing personal memories of their home life.
“The man you were to everyone was more than that of the man at home I knew that my sisters and I called dad,” Sherilyn Guerrero wrote.
She added, “I love you. It doesn’t get easier, it always gets harder but your spirit being so alive makes it all okay.”
Guerrero remains a significant figure in his hometown of El Paso, where the city council designated Nov. 18 as Eddie Guerrero Day in 2025, noted local reporting.
The city previously honored the WWE Hall of Famer by awarding him the Star of the Mountain Award posthumously.
Celebrations for the wrestler continued throughout the year, including a limited-edition clothing collection and a bobblehead giveaway by the El Paso Chihuahuas, as detailed by the El Paso Times.
Guerrero achieved historical significance during his career as the first Mexican American to win the WWE Championship in February 2004.
His legacy as a performer and his impact on the sport continue to be recognized by fans and family members alike, according to the El Paso Times.
The anniversary served as a reminder of the wrestler’s enduring influence on the industry.
