Eddie Guerrero wrestled 5* matches for at least 11 years.

On a whim my I went to see an ECW house show back in 1995 which wound up being a show that had the first of the three matches billed as the "Malenko Guerrero Classic". Unbelievable work.

These were two guys with no real gimmicks at the time who just went out and worked their a$$es off for about 200 people in Hazleton PA. Class acts in the ring. His talent will be missed. I don't think I saw technical ring work nearly as good since.

All four of the Radicals were amazing in-ring; Dean Malenko's my personal favorite, Perry Saturn was constantly underrated, and of course two of them went on to be WWE Champions.

Amazing the talent that was in that WCW Cruiser Division. Jericho, Benoit, Malenko, Eddy, Rey, Juvy before he sucked, Psychosis, etc, etc.

It's kind've sad that it sparked the spotfest revolution. Some of these great matches were nothing more than spotfests, but with great technical workers in the division they had plenty of amazing psychological battles, too.

God I miss those years.
