Eddie Guerrero

Eduardo Gory Guerrero Llanes (October 9, 1967 – November 13, 2005), better known by his ring name, Eddie Guerrero, was an American professional wrestler of Hispanic descent. Born into a legendary Mexican wrestling family, Guerrero managed to maintain the storied Guerrero family legacy. Through the 1990s, he had a distinguished career, working for every major professional wrestling promotion in the United States during that period: Extreme Championship Wrestling, World Championship Wrestling and World Wrestling Entertainment.

Guerrero's in-ring character was that of a crafty, resourceful wrestler who would do anything to win a match. His famous mantra became "Cheat to Win." Despite being a heel for much of his career, he became extremely popular because of his charisma and the fact that his character seemed to largely be a reflection of himself.

Throughout his career, Guerrero encountered various substance abuse problems outside of wrestling, including alcoholism and an addiction to pain killers. His problems outside of the ring were sometimes integrated into his professional wrestling storylines. Despite all these issues, Guerrero managed to be extremely popular, winning numerous titles during his career, including the WWE Championship. Guerrero became a born again Christian in 2002.

Early career

Guerrero came from a legendary wrestling family. His father, Gory Guerrero, was a founding father of Lucha Libre, a prominent wrestling trainer and an influential figure in Mexican professional wrestling. His three brothers Chavo Guerrero, Hector Guerrero and Mando Guerrero all followed in their father's footsteps and became professional wrestlers. Guerrero's nephew, Chavo Guerrero, Jr. also became a wrestler. Guerrero's uncle Enrique Llanes and cousin Javier Llanes are popular wrestlers in Mexico.

Guerrero was raised in El Paso, Texas and attended the University of New Mexico as well as New Mexico Highlands University on an athletic scholarship, where he wrestled collegiately, before returning to El Paso to train as a professional wrestler. He debuted in 1987 in the Mexican Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre promotion. He became a star in Mexico long before he main evented in the United States.

In 1993, Guerrero began wrestling in Japan for New Japan Pro Wrestling, where he was known as Black Tiger II. In Mexico, he wrestled mainly for Asistencia Asesoria y Administracion, teaming with El Hijo del Santo as the new version of La Pareja Atómica (The Atomic Pair), the legendary tag team of Gory Guerrero and El Santo. After Guerrero turned on Santo and allied with Art Barr as La Pareja del Terror (The Pair of Terror), the duo became arguably the most hated tag team in lucha libre history. Along with Barr, Konnan and Madonna’s Boyfriend, Guerrero formed Los Gringos Locos (The Crazy Americans), a heel stable.

Guerrero and Barr's first break would come when they were noticed in late 1994 by the owner of Extreme Championship Wrestling, Paul Heyman, and were approached about wrestling for him in 1995. However, Barr died before he could join ECW with Guerrero. As an homage to his fallen friend, Guerrero adopted his friend's finishing move, the Frog Splash.

Guerrero won the ECW World Television Championship on his debut and went on to have a series of acclaimed matches with Dean Malenko before they both signed with World Championship Wrestling later that year. After their last match at the ECW arena, the locker room emptied and the two were carried around the ring by their fellow wrestlers while the crowd chanted "Please don't go."

World Championship Wrestling

In WCW, Guerrero found considerable singles success, winning the WCW United States Heavyweight Championship in late 1996 and the WCW World Cruiserweight Championship twice in 1997. One such title match was against Rey Mysterio at Halloween Havoc. He lost the match, but called it his favorite match in the February 2004 SmackDown! magazine and his autobiography (published posthumously).

Despite Guerrero's success and popularity, he was one of many wrestlers who were frustrated at never being given a chance to be main event stars in WCW. These frustrations came to a head when Guerrero requested that WCW President Eric Bischoff either push his character or give him a raise for family reasons. Bischoff responded by throwing coffee at Guerrero. The wrestler, furious, demanded Bischoff release him from his WCW contract on a live episode of WCW Monday Nitro. Guerrero then left the company for a period of months, angry at Bischoff for what he had done. However, Guerrero later returned to WCW, leading to the belief that maybe Guerrero's angry speeches against Bischoff were actually a work (Guerrero later confirmed it to be a worked shoot). Guerrero would later rebut this on WWE's DVD Monday Night War claiming that he tried to put personal differences aside for the good of the company, yet found himself angry and outraged once more because of Bischoff's continued refusal to elevate Guerrero and other similar wrestlers.

Guerrero responded to Bischoff's actions by forming the Latino World Order (or lWo), which was understood by the fans to be a mockery of Bischoff's New World Order. The group was an answer to Bischoff's refusal to push Latino wrestlers in ways they deserved. The group eventually grew to encompass almost all the Mexican wrestlers working for WCW at the time. However, Guerrero was involved in a serious car accident in 1999 that cut short the lWo storyline. Guerrero survived the accident and returned to wrestling in a matter of months.

After his return, he continued to be displeased with WCW management and signed with the WWF in 2000 along with top WCW stars Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko, and Perry Saturn.

World Wrestling Federation

Guerrero and the other WCW wrestlers debuted in the WWF on January 31, 2000 as The Radicalz, appearing on RAW and interfering in a match including the New Age Outlaws. In March 2000, Guerrero began pursuing the affections of Chyna, who he referred to as his "Mamacita." Chyna initially rejected his advances, but allied with him following WrestleMania 2000, declaring that she "couldn't resist his 'Latino Heat'".

Guerrero won his first WWF title by defeating another former WCW wrestler, Chris Jericho for the WWF European Championship with help from Chyna. He and Chyna began a feud with Essa Rios and Lita, which culminated in a European title defence at Backlash 2000, which was also billed as the night of Guerrero's prom (he was said to have just earned a GED). Guerrero defeated Rios after arriving at ringside in a 1957 Chevrolet, even wrestling in his tuxedo pants and a bow tie. Guerrero successfully retained the title in matches against Saturn and Malenko before finally losing the title to Saturn on July 23.

Over the next few months, friction began to build between Guerrero and Chyna. Chyna was upset when Guerrero pinned her to advance in the King of the Ring tournament. On August 27, Chyna won the WWF Intercontinental Championship. Guerrero claimed to not mind and then begged Commissioner Mick Foley to let him take part in a title defense between Chyna and Kurt Angle, claiming he was afraid that Angle would injure Chyna. After Angle knocked Chyna down with the title belt, Guerrero "accidentally" pinned her while trying to revive her.

Chyna became visibly uncomfortable as Guerrero began to cheat in order to retain his title, while Guerrero was upset that Chyna was posing for Playboy magazine, even trying to invade the Playboy Mansion to stop the photoshoot. Just when it appeared that Chyna would leave Guerrero, he proposed to her and she accepted. The engagement was called off when Guerrero was caught showering with two of The Godfather's hos claiming that "Two Mamacitas are better than one!" Guerrero turned heel once again as a result of the incident and was later defeated for the Intercontinental Championship by Chyna's friend Billy Gunn.

The Radicalz reunited in late 2000, assisting Triple H in his match with Stone Cold Steve Austin at Survivor Series. In early 2001, Guerrero feuded with Test, winning the European Championship for a second time at WrestleMania X-Seven with help from Saturn and Malenko. Guerrero eventually left the Radicalz, siding with The Hardy Boyz and Lita. At this point, Guerrero developed an addiction to pain medication stemming from his 1999 car accident and in May 2001 was sent to rehabilitation. On November 9, 2001 he was arrested for drunk driving and was subsequently released by the WWF three days later.

Independent circuit

Guerrero appeared with numerous independent promotions, including World Wrestling All-Stars and IWA Mid-South. He was also one of the original wrestlers in the Ring of Honor promotion. Following a number of highly acclaimed matches, such as his bout with Doug Williams at FWA British Uprising, as well as his series of matches with CM Punk, he was rehired by the renamed WWE in March 2002. When he signed, he was committed to one more ROH and IWA Mid-South show. WWE permitted him to fulfill the obligations, and on April 19, he wrestled CM Punk and Colt Cabana in Dayton, Ohio. A little over a week later on April 27, he teamed with The Amazing Red to defeat The S.A.T. at A Night of Appreciation, an ROH show dedicated to him. During this time, he won the IWA mid-south heavyweight title from CM punk, in a triple threat with rey mysterio, just days after winnning the cruiserweight title again in the WWE.

World Wrestling Entertainment

Guerrero returned to RAW on April 1, 2002, attacking Rob Van Dam and reuniting with Chris Benoit. On April 21 at Backlash 2002 he defeated Van Dam for the Intercontinental Championship. He lost the belt to RVD a month later in a ladder match which was plagued with problems, including the ladder breaking to a fan interfering in the match. Guerrero then started a feud with Stone Cold Steve Austin, but Austin left WWE before a match could take place. Guerrero then went on to feud briefly with The Rock.

Los Guerreros

On August 1, Guerrero and Benoit began to wrestle exclusively for WWE's SmackDown! brand. With Benoit starting to focus on Kurt Angle, Guerrero aligned himself with his nephew Chavo, forming the tag team Los Guerreros. In contrast to a previous WCW storyline with his nephew, Chavo fully adopted his uncle's policy of "Lie, Cheat and Steal" to win matches, and to push the new tag team vignettes were produced, which included things such as the two finagling their way into a rich lady's house and throwing a pool party. The duo entered the eight-team tournament for the new WWE Tag Team Championships and began a feud with the newly formed tag team of Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit. In one of the team's definitive moments, Chavo told Benoit that his former friend Guerrero was assaulted by his tag team partner Kurt Angle. Benoit ran to make the save, only to have himself locked inside a room. Guerrero then materialised in the room and assaulted Benoit with a steel chair.

Benoit and Angle managed to overcome their differences and eventually defeated Los Guerreros in the tournament semi-finals. Later on, Benoit and Angle won the WWE Tag Team Championships. Benoit and Angle then fought for a trophy for being the first WWE Tag Team Champion. Much to Benoit's surprise, Los Guerreros helped him win the match.

Los Guerreros would then be given another shot at the WWE Tag Team titles and the new champions, Edge and Rey Mysterio. At Survivor Series 2002, Guerrero made Mysterio submit to The Lasso From El Paso. With this victory, Los Guerreros began their reign as the WWE Tag Team Champions, a reign that lasted until they were defeated by Team Angle. Los Guerreros participated at WrestleMania XIX as contenders for the Tag Titles, along with the team of Chris Benoit and Rhyno. Prior to Judgment Day, Chavo tore his bicep. This forced Guerrero to look for another partner. He chose Tajiri. They won the Tag Titles at Judgment Day in a ladder match. The following week, Guerrero and Tajiri managed to retain their titles by cheating. In addition, they also defeated the legendary Roddy Piper and his protegè Sean O'Haire. After Guerrero and Tajiri lost the titles to Team Angle on July 1, Guerrero turned on Tajiri, slamming his partner through the windshield of his low-rider truck.

In mid-2003, Guerrero competed in a tournament for the WWE United States Championship. He managed to advance to the final round, defeating Ultimo Dragon in the process, where he would meet Chris Benoit. In this match, Guerrero turned to his cheating tactics, hitting Benoit with the belt at one point in the match. Guerrero tried to get Benoit in trouble by placing the title belt on top of the unconscious Benoit. It did not work, however, since he knocked out the ref earlier with a belt shot to the kidneys. The match ended with interference by and a Gore from Rhyno, Benoit's own partner, who was furious at the team's failure. Guerrero himself said that this was a major point in the character of Latino Heat, since he himself realized that the fans wanted to see him lie, cheat and steal. Guerrero pinned Benoit and won the United States Championship.

At SummerSlam, Guerrero retained his title by defeating Rhyno, Benoit and Tajiri in a four way match. He turned face again by engaging in a rivalry with John Cena. Guerrero challenged Cena to a "Latino Heat" street fight for the United States Championship, which Guerrero won. Chavo made his return in this match, assisting Guerrero in executing his Frog Splash on Cena. On September 16, 2003, Los Guerreros defeated The World's Greatest Tag Team to regain the WWE Tag Team Championships. Eddie Guerrero thus held the United States Championship and one-half of the Tag Team Championships concurrently.

Guerrero lost the United States Championship to The Big Show at No Mercy 2003 in October after a feud which involved Guerrero poisoning the Big Show with some laxative laced burritos and then later spraying the Big Show with a sewage truck. Four days later, Los Guerreros would lose the WWE Tag Team Championship to the Basham Brothers. As Los Guerreros attempted to regain the tag team titles, things began to go downhill between Chavo and Guerrero, and the two fought one another at the 2004 Royal Rumble in a match that was won by Eddie Guerrero.

WWE Champion

As Guerrero's popularity grew, he began seeking the WWE Championship. In a storyline, Guerrero's singles success made Chavo jealous and Chavo broke from the team.

During the summer of 2003, Guerrero had begun driving a customized lowrider to ringside as part of his ring entrance. Guerrero would also capitalize on his "Lie, Cheat, and Steal" anti-hero image by brazenly using illegal tactics behind the referee's back to win matches on occasion. He was well known for hitting someone with a steel chair (or handing the opponent the steel chair and then pretending to be knocked out himself, just as the referee turned around), or using illegal weapons during the match. Despite (or possibly because of) his immoral tactics, Guerrero continued to increase in popularity.

On February 15, 2004 Guerrero won the WWE Championship at No Way Out 2004, defeating Brock Lesnar following interference from Goldberg. He would enjoy many months of success as champion, which included a win against Kurt Angle at WrestleMania XX as well as victories over the Big Show and Rey Mysterio. He would later lose the title to John "Bradshaw" Layfield, due to Angle's interference. At SummerSlam, Angle made Guerrero submit to the ankle lock. Guerrero then allied himself with the Big Show, who also despised Kurt Angle for firing him while Angle was still SmackDown! general manager.

Each week Angle and his new allies Luther Reigns and Mark Jindrak began targeting Guerrero and the Big Show. General Manager Theodore Long booked a Survivor Series Elimination Match between a team led by Guerrero and a team led by Kurt Angle. Guerrero's team consisted of himself, Big Show, Rey Mysterio and Rob Van Dam. The following week, Guerrero was forced to find another member for his team because Rey Mysterio had just been given an opportunity to regain the WWE Cruiserweight Championship. Guerrero selected John Cena, who was feuding with Carlito, a member of Angle's Survivor Series team. At Survivor Series, Guerrero landed the Frog Splash on Kurt Angle for the victory.

Guerrero, along with Booker T and The Undertaker, then challenged John "Bradshaw" Layfield for a WWE Championship rematch. Along the way, Guerrero found a partner in Booker T. Despite losing two matches in a row as a tag team, Guerrero and Booker managed to get along. At Armageddon, Guerrero and Booker worked as a unit, taking down both Bradshaw and Undertaker. However, during the match, the two broke away from the team and made it clear that it was every man for themselves. Guerrero would then be taken out by The Undertaker while Bradshaw pinned Booker following the Clothesline From Hell. Afterwards, Guerrero and Booker briefly and unsuccessfully attempted to win the WWE Tag Team Championships.

Feud with Rey Mysterio

On February 20, 2005, Guerrero once again became a tag team champion, this time with long time friend and sometimes rival Rey Mysterio when they defeated Doug and Danny Basham at No Way Out 2005.

Many expected the new champions to defend their titles at WrestleMania 21, but after encouragement from Chavo, instead Guerrero challenged Rey to a one-on-one match so they could "bring the house down." The two wrestled a match at WrestleMania with Mysterio getting the win. Although visibly frustrated, Guerrero congratulated his partner. After several mishaps in the weeks following WrestleMania, the growing tension between Guerrero and Mysterio finally erupted when they lost their tag titles to new team MNM on the April 21 episode of SmackDown! Although they received a match to regain the titles, Guerrero turned heel once again by abandoning his partner, who he had dubbed "his family" earlier in the show.

Guerrero then adopted a new, somewhat sociopathic gimmick. During this time, he also stopped driving his low-riders down the ring and walked to the ring with a frown on his face, and reverted to using the Lasso from El Paso as his finishing move. At the end of one edition of SmackDown!, he viciously and emotionlessly beat up his former tag team partner, leaving him bruised and bloody after suplexing him onto a set of steel steps. At Judgment Day 2005 on May 22, Guerrero lost to Mysterio by disqualification.

Several weeks after the match at Judgment Day, Guerrero threatened to reveal a secret about Rey and Rey's son Dominik. The storyline (which involved equal parts of work and truth, and had Rey's full approval) grew to involve the families of both men, with both sides pleading for Guerrero not to reveal the secret. Rey defeated Guerrero at the Great American Bash, a match with a stipulation that if Guerrero lost, he would not tell the secret. Yet Guerrero revealed the secret any way on the following episode of SmackDown! - telling Dominik and the audience that Guerrero was his real father. The following weeks had Guerrero revealing the details of the secret in a series of what he called "Eddie's Bedtime Stories". He claimed that he had a child out of wedlock (Dominik) while his marriage was going through hard times. He claimed he then allowed Mysterio and his wife, who were "having trouble conceiving", to adopt the child as their own.

At SummerSlam 2005, Guerrero lost a ladder match over Dominik's custody to Mysterio. Their emotional feud ended at the premiere of Friday Night SmackDown!, where Guerrero finally gained a victory over Mysterio in a steel cage match.

Following his feud with Rey Mysterio, Guerrero was named number one contender to the World Heavyweight Championship and given a title match with Batista at No Mercy 2005. Despite this, Guerrero quickly proclaimed himself to be Batista's friend. However, Batista was wary of Guerrero and a series of matches with MNM only supported his suspicions, as Guerrero appeared to have reverted to his cheating ways. In response to Batista's suspicions, Guerrero helped Batista win a match against his tag team partners, John "Bradshaw" Layfield and Christian.

Batista defeated Guerrero at No Mercy to retain his World title. During the match, Guerrero struggled with a decision about whether or not to use a steel chair to secure the victory, eventually opting not to use it and losing as a result. Though the two demonstrated mutual respect after the match, Guerrero seemed displeased by the loss. Eventually, Batista and Guerrero would become allies against Randy Orton, Bob Orton and Ken Kennedy. Guerrero would tell Batista that he realized how low he had sunk since being WWE Champion in 2004, having attacked his best friend Rey Mysterio. Guerrero told him that Batista shaking his hand at No Mercy had returned his respect to him.

On the November 11 edition of Friday Night SmackDown!, Eddie Guerrero wrestled what turned out to be the final match of his career, a victory by disqualification using his trademark cheating tactics over Mr. Kennedy. Kayfabe-wise, this was a Survivor Series qualification match which was to have Guerrero put in the Smackdown side of a brand-war Survivor Series match.

Death

On November 13, 2005, Guerrero was found dead in his hotel room in Minneapolis, Minnesota, at the Marriott City Center Hotel by his nephew, Chavo. Several hours later, WWE.com released the following announcement:

The same day, WWE held a press conference with a speech from his nephew Chavo, who spoke of Guerrero's four years of sobriety that would have come on November 15 of that year. Chavo adamantly defended his uncle, saying he had defeated his "personal demons." WWE Chairman Vince McMahon declined to speculate on the causes of Guerrero's death, and both men said that Guerrero would have "wanted the show to go on."

Cause

An autopsy revealed that Guerrero died as a result of acute heart failure, caused by undiagnosed arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease and enlargement of the heart as a result of prior anabolic steroid abuse. Although Guerrero had not taken alcohol or illicit drugs for over four years, his past excesses contributed to his heart failure. At the time of his death, he had recently used narcotic painkillers.

Guerrero's wife Vicky said that he had been lethargic and unwell in the week preceding his death, but that this had been attributed to the stress of continuously traveling and performing. She added that the doctors had told her that Guerrero's blood vessels had shriveled and weakened owing to undiagnosed heart disease, and that he had simply dropped into a deep sleep.

On the November 30, 2005 edition of WWE Byte This!, Chavo Guerrero, Jr. said that Guerrero had been working very hard and was at peak physical fitness as a result, doing cardiovascular and weight training exercises every day. There had been no symptoms or cause for concern. Guerrero, Jr. noted that, while many people abuse drugs for over ten years with no ill effects, Guerrero, despite having ceased to abuse drugs four years earlier, had suffered heart complications that were not detected in time to prevent his death.

. Australia is in the lead in DVD release dates, followed closely by The Netherlands and the quickly catching-up United Kingdom. Wrestlers and wrestling personalities from all around the world of wrestling were in attendance, including:. (Paramount has a no-extras policy on their TV DVD's) The first season was firstly released in the United States. and Valerie Coleman Graham all spoke at the funeral. There will be no special features on the first four seasons Charmed DVDs. Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko, Chris Jericho, John "Bradshaw" Layfield, Vince McMahon, Tom Prichard, all of Guerrero's brothers, one of his sisters, Chavo Guerrero, Jr. This aspect is constantly used as a target for "snark" in the forums of Television Without Pity [1].

The private service was performed by retired wrestler "Superstar" Billy Graham. A subject of much dissapointment to certain sector of fans in the show's continuity issues, with specific details or "rules" often being contradicted in following episodes. Eddie Guerrero's funeral took place on Thursday, November 17 in Phoenix, Arizona at Green Acres Cemetery. Her mother and father, however, are perfectly normal human beings, thus witchcraft skipped a generation in her family. In addition to the RAW and SmackDown! tribute shows, Total Nonstop Action Wrestling dedicated the pay-per-view TNA Genesis (which aired the evening of his passing) to Guerrero. Billie inherited her powers from her grandmother on her mother's side. These shows were similar in format to the RAW is Owen special edition of RAW, which paid tribute to the late Owen Hart, and the SmackDown! special in Houston, Texas two days after the September 11, 2001 attacks. This power, yet to be defined in detail, projects Billie's thoughts into reality, and is triggered by strong emotions.

A similar video was shown on Friday Night Smackdown to "Here Without You" by 3 Doors Down. Recently she received the power of projection. A video was then shown featuring many clips of Guerrero in and out of the ring to "Hurt" by Johnny Cash. She is cocky in her own powers and skills, but is still bested in a fight by Paige. RAW started off with all the superstars and several personnel on stage, as Vince McMahon addressed the live crowd. Billie has the power of telekinesis, and she can use it to amplify her acrobatic abilities. No WWE employees were compelled to perform, although several matches took place, including one featuring Chavo. Upon meeting with an Angel of Destiny, Billie was assured that her sister is alive and she will eventually find her.

The episodes of RAW on November 14, 2005, and Friday Night SmackDown! on November 18, 2005, each aired as a tribute to Eddie Guerrero. Her main objective, as this mystery remains to be solved, is to find out who kidnapped Christy and why, and to save her if she is still alive. Stephanie McMahon hinted, and other sources confirmed, that Guerrero had been scheduled to defeat Batista for the World Heavyweight Championship, which would have begun Guerrero's first reign as World Heavyweight Champion. This -- along with the fact that the incident was never mentioned by her parents, leaving Billie even more confused -- was the main motivation for Billie to train and become skilled in using her powers. On the day of his death, Guerrero was set to face Batista and Randy Orton in a triple threat match for the World Heavyweight Championship on the November 13 taping of Friday Night SmackDown! (which would have aired on November 18). Billie's backstory involves the abduction of her sister, Christie, by mysterious demons with unknown intentions. noted that, while many people abuse drugs for over ten years with no ill effects, Guerrero, despite having ceased to abuse drugs four years earlier, had suffered heart complications that were not detected in time to prevent his death. This, at the time when the Charmed Ones were thought to be dead, proved useful for the three sisters, as Billie could carry out smaller magic-related tasks and also to cover for them.

Guerrero, Jr. Billie was put under the tutelage of the Charmed Ones after she asked them to teach them everything they know about witchcraft. There had been no symptoms or cause for concern. Billie Jenkins was introduced, in the show's eighth season, as a young witch who pays more attention to demon fighting than to her education. said that Guerrero had been working very hard and was at peak physical fitness as a result, doing cardiovascular and weight training exercises every day. Fortunately, Chris had set in motion a new future for himself and his family that may ultimately change his own destiny for the better. On the November 30, 2005 edition of WWE Byte This!, Chavo Guerrero, Jr. The adult Chris was mortally wounded by Gideon while trying to protect infant Wyatt; he died in Leo's arms hours before Piper gave birth to his baby-self.

She added that the doctors had told her that Guerrero's blood vessels had shriveled and weakened owing to undiagnosed heart disease, and that he had simply dropped into a deep sleep. He also didn't want to get emotionaly involved with his mother because she died when he turned 14, so he thought it would be too much pain to go back to a future where she was not alive, but after a talk with his grandfather Victor he decided to let it go and got close to Piper. Guerrero's wife Vicky said that he had been lethargic and unwell in the week preceding his death, but that this had been attributed to the stress of continuously traveling and performing. Chris resented Leo for not being there for him in the future, but eventually reconciled with his father. At the time of his death, he had recently used narcotic painkillers. He had come back to identify and vanquish the one responsible for turning his brother Wyatt evil; he was able to achieve this with the help of his family. Although Guerrero had not taken alcohol or illicit drugs for over four years, his past excesses contributed to his heart failure. Eventually, everyone learned that Chris was Leo and Piper's second son, and that he was named after Leo's father.

An autopsy revealed that Guerrero died as a result of acute heart failure, caused by undiagnosed arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease and enlargement of the heart as a result of prior anabolic steroid abuse. But it still took a while for Leo and the sisters to fully trust Chris since his actions were often shady and he was so focused on killing demons. Chavo adamantly defended his uncle, saying he had defeated his "personal demons." WWE Chairman Vince McMahon declined to speculate on the causes of Guerrero's death, and both men said that Guerrero would have "wanted the show to go on.". He eventually confessed that he was a half-witch, which explained why he couldn't be frozen and had telekinetic powers (he can also blow things up but rarely uses that power). The same day, WWE held a press conference with a speech from his nephew Chavo, who spoke of Guerrero's four years of sobriety that would have come on November 15 of that year. But he clearly wasn't like other whitelighters: he could orb and sense his charges, but he couldn't heal. Several hours later, WWE.com released the following announcement:. Introduced as a moody and mysterious whitelighter from the future, Chris became the sisters' new whitelighter after Leo became an Elder.

On November 13, 2005, Guerrero was found dead in his hotel room in Minneapolis, Minnesota, at the Marriott City Center Hotel by his nephew, Chavo. Chris Halliwell: portrayed by Drew Fuller (2003-2004). Kayfabe-wise, this was a Survivor Series qualification match which was to have Guerrero put in the Smackdown side of a brand-war Survivor Series match. He could TK orb ever since he was a few-months-old and is the future master of Excalibur. Kennedy. Wyatt could already heal at the age of 2 years old (something his little brother Chris was still not able to do at the age of 22). On the November 11 edition of Friday Night SmackDown!, Eddie Guerrero wrestled what turned out to be the final match of his career, a victory by disqualification using his trademark cheating tactics over Mr. He conjured a Dragon from a television when he was 8 months, and scared away Piper’s potential dates with magic at the tender age of 10 months.

Guerrero told him that Batista shaking his hand at No Mercy had returned his respect to him. He shares the last name Halliwell, with his mommy and aunts because “evil fears it and good magic respects it.” Wyatt is an extremely powerful child and orbed for the first time when he was a couple of months old. Guerrero would tell Batista that he realized how low he had sunk since being WWE Champion in 2004, having attacked his best friend Rey Mysterio. Wyatt was given the middle name of Matthew in honor of his “super protective aunt Paige” and his first name is Leo’s last name. Eventually, Batista and Guerrero would become allies against Randy Orton, Bob Orton and Ken Kennedy. Everyone was surprised that he was a boy since everyone assumed he was Melinda, the daughter Piper met when she went to the future, in the beginning of season 2. Though the two demonstrated mutual respect after the match, Guerrero seemed displeased by the loss. His birth was prophesied centuries before, and he was called the “twice-blessed” child, but for the entire pregnancy, the girls and Leo thought that he was going to be a girl to be named “Prudence Melinda”.

During the match, Guerrero struggled with a decision about whether or not to use a steel chair to secure the victory, eventually opting not to use it and losing as a result. He was able to heal her from the womb, as well as protect her with a force field (Which he now uses to protect himself). Batista defeated Guerrero at No Mercy to retain his World title. Throughout Piper’s pregnancy, Wyatt exhibited many powers, making his mother "invincible". In response to Batista's suspicions, Guerrero helped Batista win a match against his tag team partners, John "Bradshaw" Layfield and Christian. Piper found out she was pregnant after being told by her doctor that she would have trouble conceiving due to extensive scar tissue on her uterus. However, Batista was wary of Guerrero and a series of matches with MNM only supported his suspicions, as Guerrero appeared to have reverted to his cheating ways. Until the day he was born, in the middle of season 5, Wyatt was constantly surprising his parents, Piper and Leo.

Despite this, Guerrero quickly proclaimed himself to be Batista's friend. Wyatt Halliwell: portrayed by Jason & Kristopher Simmons (2003- ). Following his feud with Rey Mysterio, Guerrero was named number one contender to the World Heavyweight Championship and given a title match with Batista at No Mercy 2005. She was then written to live with her parents again. Their emotional feud ended at the premiere of Friday Night SmackDown!, where Guerrero finally gained a victory over Mysterio in a steel cage match. She only appeared in few episodes, and in the end, she did not serve any major purpose in any of the plotlines. At SummerSlam 2005, Guerrero lost a ladder match over Dominik's custody to Mysterio. She was known to come to them for female advice when she was too embarrassed to talk to Dan.

He claimed he then allowed Mysterio and his wife, who were "having trouble conceiving", to adopt the child as their own. Her parents were busy re-locating to a new home for their work and asked Dan to care for her until they were settled in. He claimed that he had a child out of wedlock (Dominik) while his marriage was going through hard times. Jenny is the niece of Dan Gordon and next-door neighbor, and friend, of the Halliwell Sisters. The following weeks had Guerrero revealing the details of the secret in a series of what he called "Eddie's Bedtime Stories". Jenny Gordon: portrayed by Karis Paige Bryant (1999). Yet Guerrero revealed the secret any way on the following episode of SmackDown! - telling Dominik and the audience that Guerrero was his real father.
.

Rey defeated Guerrero at the Great American Bash, a match with a stipulation that if Guerrero lost, he would not tell the secret. Dan moved away to Portland when he was offered a job there, deciding that it was time for him to get on with his life. The storyline (which involved equal parts of work and truth, and had Rey's full approval) grew to involve the families of both men, with both sides pleading for Guerrero not to reveal the secret. When his brother-in-law discovered that Leo had been a soldier in World War II and had died in the war, Dan presented the information to Leo and finally to Piper. Several weeks after the match at Judgment Day, Guerrero threatened to reveal a secret about Rey and Rey's son Dominik. Dan also became very suspicious of Leo and even asked his brother-in-law who worked for the state department to check Leo's army records. At Judgment Day 2005 on May 22, Guerrero lost to Mysterio by disqualification. Piper finally broke up with Dan after she realized that despite loving Dan, she loved Leo more.

At the end of one edition of SmackDown!, he viciously and emotionlessly beat up his former tag team partner, leaving him bruised and bloody after suplexing him onto a set of steel steps. Dan felt as though he was simply "geographically desirable" and that that was the basis of the entire relationship. During this time, he also stopped driving his low-riders down the ring and walked to the ring with a frown on his face, and reverted to using the Lasso from El Paso as his finishing move. He also always felt threatened by Leo, because even though Piper did not see him often, he knew that they had been serious and that Piper still cared for him. Guerrero then adopted a new, somewhat sociopathic gimmick. However, Piper's sudden disappearances and avoidance of his questions drove Dan crazy and made him feel insecure in their relationship. After several mishaps in the weeks following WrestleMania, the growing tension between Guerrero and Mysterio finally erupted when they lost their tag titles to new team MNM on the April 21 episode of SmackDown! Although they received a match to regain the titles, Guerrero turned heel once again by abandoning his partner, who he had dubbed "his family" earlier in the show. When Piper felt attracted to Dan, she decided to date him instead of Leo because the relationship seemed much less complicated.

Although visibly frustrated, Guerrero congratulated his partner. While Dan never discovered the sisters' secret, he noticed the oddity of the girls' lives and often suspected that they were hiding something. Many expected the new champions to defend their titles at WrestleMania 21, but after encouragement from Chavo, instead Guerrero challenged Rey to a one-on-one match so they could "bring the house down." The two wrestled a match at WrestleMania with Mysterio getting the win. He used to play third base for the Seattle Mariners baseball team until he blew out his knee sliding home, then worked in construction. On February 20, 2005, Guerrero once again became a tag team champion, this time with long time friend and sometimes rival Rey Mysterio when they defeated Doug and Danny Basham at No Way Out 2005. He and his niece Jenny lived next door to the Halliwell Sisters. Afterwards, Guerrero and Booker briefly and unsuccessfully attempted to win the WWE Tag Team Championships. The mortal next-door neighbor who was attracted to Piper Halliwell.

Guerrero would then be taken out by The Undertaker while Bradshaw pinned Booker following the Clothesline From Hell. Dan Gordon: portrayed by Greg Vaughan (1999-2000). However, during the match, the two broke away from the team and made it clear that it was every man for themselves. Brian Krause (the actor who plays Leo) originally auditioned to play this character. At Armageddon, Guerrero and Booker worked as a unit, taking down both Bradshaw and Undertaker. He then risked his career to help them, ultimately sacrificing his life to protect them from the demon Rodriguez. Despite losing two matches in a row as a tag team, Guerrero and Booker managed to get along. Eventually, Andy discovered that all three sisters were witches, and that they were responsible for saving so many people's lives.

Along the way, Guerrero found a partner in Booker T. He was in love with Prue, but they eventually broke up because Prue wouldn't tell Andy her secret. Guerrero, along with Booker T and The Undertaker, then challenged John "Bradshaw" Layfield for a WWE Championship rematch. The two of them began dating shortly thereafter. At Survivor Series, Guerrero landed the Frog Splash on Kurt Angle for the victory. When the Halliwell sisters reunited and moved back into the Manor after their Grams' death, Prue bumped into him at a hospital. Guerrero selected John Cena, who was feuding with Carlito, a member of Angle's Survivor Series team. He worked with Darryl Morris as his partner.

The following week, Guerrero was forced to find another member for his team because Rey Mysterio had just been given an opportunity to regain the WWE Cruiserweight Championship. Later when they parted ways and he moved out of his childhood home, Andy worked as an Inspector for the San Francisco Police Department and was coincidentally assigned to almost every police case that involved the Halliwell sisters. Guerrero's team consisted of himself, Big Show, Rey Mysterio and Rob Van Dam. As a child he was close to them all, but in high school he dated Prue for a short period. General Manager Theodore Long booked a Survivor Series Elimination Match between a team led by Guerrero and a team led by Kurt Angle. Andy Trudeau grew up next-door to the Halliwell sisters in San Francisco. Each week Angle and his new allies Luther Reigns and Mark Jindrak began targeting Guerrero and the Big Show. Andy Trudeau: portrayed by Ted King (1998-1999).

Guerrero then allied himself with the Big Show, who also despised Kurt Angle for firing him while Angle was still SmackDown! general manager. Julian McMahon (the actor who played Cole) originally auditoned for the role of Inspector Andy Trudeau. At SummerSlam, Angle made Guerrero submit to the ankle lock. He was thought to be gone permanently, but he returned in spectral form during Season 7 to advise Piper and he also made sure that Phoebe didn't give up on love. He would later lose the title to John "Bradshaw" Layfield, due to Angle's interference. Cole wasn't invincible in that time; he was Belthazor, so the Charmed Ones were able to vanquish him once and for all. He would enjoy many months of success as champion, which included a win against Kurt Angle at WrestleMania XX as well as victories over the Big Show and Rey Mysterio. Cole received more powers from an Avatar and tried to undo the past so that he could be with Phoebe again, but Paige figured out Cole's plan.

On February 15, 2004 Guerrero won the WWE Championship at No Way Out 2004, defeating Brock Lesnar following interference from Goldberg. Phoebe hated Cole after that and he went crazy and tried to kill himself, but learned that he couldn't because he was invincible. Despite (or possibly because of) his immoral tactics, Guerrero continued to increase in popularity. Cole was gone, but soon came back with his new powers. He was well known for hitting someone with a steel chair (or handing the opponent the steel chair and then pretending to be knocked out himself, just as the referee turned around), or using illegal weapons during the match. Later, she kissed Cole goodbye and helped her sisters vanquish him as the Source. Guerrero would also capitalize on his "Lie, Cheat, and Steal" anti-hero image by brazenly using illegal tactics behind the referee's back to win matches on occasion. She turned evil, married Cole, and became the Queen of the Underworld.

During the summer of 2003, Guerrero had begun driving a customized lowrider to ringside as part of his ring entrance. He was then possessed by the living evil spirit of the Source and became evil, but he never lost his love for Phoebe, who eventually became pregnant with the spawn of the Source. In a storyline, Guerrero's singles success made Chavo jealous and Chavo broke from the team. He released the Hollow and put it back in its place. As Guerrero's popularity grew, he began seeking the WWE Championship. He then took in the power of the Hollow, an energy which consumes magic, and aided the sisters in killing the Source of all evil. As Los Guerreros attempted to regain the tag team titles, things began to go downhill between Chavo and Guerrero, and the two fought one another at the 2004 Royal Rumble in a match that was won by Eddie Guerrero. After his evil half was accidentally vanquished, he became mortal, and continued helping the sisters with his knowledge of demons.

Four days later, Los Guerreros would lose the WWE Tag Team Championship to the Basham Brothers. He even managed to weaken the Source significantly during a battle to save Piper's life. Guerrero lost the United States Championship to The Big Show at No Mercy 2003 in October after a feud which involved Guerrero poisoning the Big Show with some laxative laced burritos and then later spraying the Big Show with a sewage truck. Cole then continued to assist the Charmed Ones, proving to be a powerful ally. Eddie Guerrero thus held the United States Championship and one-half of the Tag Team Championships concurrently. However, after Cole helped prevent Prue from getting married to a warlock, and after helping Prue save Phoebe's life, he managed to convince the sisters that he had turned away from evil. On September 16, 2003, Los Guerreros defeated The World's Greatest Tag Team to regain the WWE Tag Team Championships. Cole reappeared, initially infuriating Phoebe, who still loved him but would not allow herself to do so.

Chavo made his return in this match, assisting Guerrero in executing his Frog Splash on Cena. Eventually, Phoebe admitted to her sisters that she had let Cole go. Guerrero challenged Cena to a "Latino Heat" street fight for the United States Championship, which Guerrero won. Even the Underworld believed that he was dead. He turned face again by engaging in a rivalry with John Cena. Phoebe lied to everyone, saying that she had vanquished Belthazor/Cole. At SummerSlam, Guerrero retained his title by defeating Rhyno, Benoit and Tajiri in a four way match. She helped Cole fake his own death and he was able to escape.

Guerrero pinned Benoit and won the United States Championship. Prue and Piper wanted to vanquish him, but Phoebe was unable to, having fallen in love with him. Guerrero himself said that this was a major point in the character of Latino Heat, since he himself realized that the fans wanted to see him lie, cheat and steal. After a while, the Charmed Ones discovered that he was Belthazor. The match ended with interference by and a Gore from Rhyno, Benoit's own partner, who was furious at the team's failure. In doing so, he betrayed the Source and turned his back on his own kind and all evil. It did not work, however, since he knocked out the ref earlier with a belt shot to the kidneys. Back then, he had an evil half known as the infamous demon 'Belthazor.' He fell in love with Phoebe, and instead of killing the Charmed Ones, he murdered the Triad.

Guerrero tried to get Benoit in trouble by placing the title belt on top of the unconscious Benoit. Cole Turner was first sent by the Triad, who worked for the Source of all evil, to kill the Charmed Ones. In this match, Guerrero turned to his cheating tactics, hitting Benoit with the belt at one point in the match. Cole Turner: portrayed by Julian McMahon (2000-2003). He managed to advance to the final round, defeating Ultimo Dragon in the process, where he would meet Chris Benoit.
. In mid-2003, Guerrero competed in a tournament for the WWE United States Championship. To facilitate his abscence, the character of Darryl was transferred to the East Coast, where contact with the sisters is non-regular and not onscreen.

After Guerrero and Tajiri lost the titles to Team Angle on July 1, Guerrero turned on Tajiri, slamming his partner through the windshield of his low-rider truck. As of Season 8, Dorian Gregory has been dropped from the cast of Charmed due to budget cuts in the series. In addition, they also defeated the legendary Roddy Piper and his protegè Sean O'Haire. Darryl has now stopped helping and covering for the Charmed Ones, as he had arrested Chris for stealing a car while trying to catch a demon. The following week, Guerrero and Tajiri managed to retain their titles by cheating. As Darryl was about to be executed, the Charmed Ones were able to stop Darryl from being killed, and make him believe that it was all a dream. They won the Tag Titles at Judgment Day in a ladder match. The Cleaners had made other people believe that he killed a person on purpose, and got him sent to death row.

He chose Tajiri. Darryl killed a mortal killer when he was possessed by a phantasm, but was spied on by Detective Sheridan. This forced Guerrero to look for another partner. Recently, however, he fell out with them over the risks he takes. Prior to Judgment Day, Chavo tore his bicep. Since finding out the sisters' secret, he has been of great help to them by covering up unsolved cases related to demonic activity. Los Guerreros participated at WrestleMania XIX as contenders for the Tag Titles, along with the team of Chris Benoit and Rhyno. Darryl has a wife and two sons.

With this victory, Los Guerreros began their reign as the WWE Tag Team Champions, a reign that lasted until they were defeated by Team Angle. A lieutenant (promoted from inspector) in the San Francisco Police Department, he was once the partner of inspector Andy Trudeau. At Survivor Series 2002, Guerrero made Mysterio submit to The Lasso From El Paso. Darryl Morris: portrayed by Dorian Gregory (1998-2005). Los Guerreros would then be given another shot at the WWE Tag Team titles and the new champions, Edge and Rey Mysterio. In fact, Brian Krause's appearances in the series have been limited to the first 10 episodes of the season for budgetary reasons; the show's executive producer, Brad Kern, has stated that Leo's character will return if more money becomes available for production. Much to Benoit's surprise, Los Guerreros helped him win the match. In Season 8 Leo has been 'frozen' due to a mysterious turn of the Halliwell sisters' fate.

Benoit and Angle then fought for a trophy for being the first WWE Tag Team Champion. He then (in Season 7) 'fell from grace' and is now a mortal, after having to choose between being an Elder and his family. Later on, Benoit and Angle won the WWE Tag Team Championships. Eventually, he joined the Avatars in order to save the sisters from dying by creating a demon-free world, but this backfired. Benoit and Angle managed to overcome their differences and eventually defeated Los Guerreros in the tournament semi-finals. Chris sent him to Valhalla, home to the Valkyries of Norse Mythology where Piper and the sisters saved him. Guerrero then materialised in the room and assaulted Benoit with a steel chair. After a crisis in which the Elders were under attack by the Greek Titans, Leo rose to the status of Elder, increasing his power greatly, including (this was not revealed until the end of Season 6) the ability to throw lightning, which every Elder seems to possess.

Benoit ran to make the save, only to have himself locked inside a room. Leo and Piper are the parents of Wyatt and Chris. In one of the team's definitive moments, Chavo told Benoit that his former friend Guerrero was assaulted by his tag team partner Kurt Angle. Leo helps the sisters to kill the demons and can heal the sisters if needed. The duo entered the eight-team tournament for the new WWE Tag Team Championships and began a feud with the newly formed tag team of Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit. Now, he's Piper's husband and the Charmed Ones' whitelighter. In contrast to a previous WCW storyline with his nephew, Chavo fully adopted his uncle's policy of "Lie, Cheat and Steal" to win matches, and to push the new tag team vignettes were produced, which included things such as the two finagling their way into a rich lady's house and throwing a pool party. When he was killed in battle, he was transformed into a whitelighter (whitelighters are like witches' guardian angels, and they have the capacity to heal their witch charges, and humans).

With Benoit starting to focus on Kurt Angle, Guerrero aligned himself with his nephew Chavo, forming the tag team Los Guerreros. He was a WW II army medic when he was young and mortal. On August 1, Guerrero and Benoit began to wrestle exclusively for WWE's SmackDown! brand. At first, Leo worked surreptitiously at The Manor as a handyman. Guerrero then went on to feud briefly with The Rock. Died: 14 November 1942. Guerrero then started a feud with Stone Cold Steve Austin, but Austin left WWE before a match could take place. Birthday: 6 May 1924.

He lost the belt to RVD a month later in a ladder match which was plagued with problems, including the ladder breaking to a fan interfering in the match. Leo Wyatt: portrayed by Brian Krause (1998-present); was a recurring character during season one and half of season two. On April 21 at Backlash 2002 he defeated Van Dam for the Intercontinental Championship. Paige quit Magic School eventually, to concentrate on her Charmed duties and to help her newly-assigned Whitelighter charges. Guerrero returned to RAW on April 1, 2002, attacking Rob Van Dam and reuniting with Chris Benoit. Paige became headmistress of the Magic School when the position was vacated by Gideon, an Elder who, in his attempts to get rid of what he thought was a too-powerful baby Wyatt, was responsible for nearly turning him evil. During this time, he won the IWA mid-south heavyweight title from CM punk, in a triple threat with rey mysterio, just days after winnning the cruiserweight title again in the WWE. He became a whitelighter, but not Paige's.

at A Night of Appreciation, an ROH show dedicated to him. He and an Avatar killed each other. A little over a week later on April 27, he teamed with The Amazing Red to defeat The S.A.T. During Season 7, the Avatars came, and the late Agent Kyle Brody fell in love with Paige while he searched for them, mistakenly believing that the Avatars had killed his parents. WWE permitted him to fulfill the obligations, and on April 19, he wrestled CM Punk and Colt Cabana in Dayton, Ohio. Richard Montana left because he went crazy with the use of magic. When he signed, he was committed to one more ROH and IWA Mid-South show. The job was a magical one, with a feud between two families, escalating to cause many deaths.

Following a number of highly acclaimed matches, such as his bout with Doug Williams at FWA British Uprising, as well as his series of matches with CM Punk, he was rehired by the renamed WWE in March 2002. Paige was seriously romantically involved with fellow witch Richard Montana during her temp job in Season 6. He was also one of the original wrestlers in the Ring of Honor promotion. In Season 5, she decided to take a year off to pursue her destiny of being a witch. Guerrero appeared with numerous independent promotions, including World Wrestling All-Stars and IWA Mid-South. She helped vanquish Shax, her first demon vanquished and became a Charmed One. On November 9, 2001 he was arrested for drunk driving and was subsequently released by the WWF three days later. When she first met Piper and Phoebe, she was attacked by the demon Shax who had killed Prue.

At this point, Guerrero developed an addiction to pain medication stemming from his 1999 car accident and in May 2001 was sent to rehabilitation. She was a social worker in Season 4, when many troubles occurred. Guerrero eventually left the Radicalz, siding with The Hardy Boyz and Lita. She can also sense and "glamour," which is the ability to change one's image. In early 2001, Guerrero feuded with Test, winning the European Championship for a second time at WrestleMania X-Seven with help from Saturn and Malenko. She has the ability to orb and telekinetic orbing, calling for objects. The Radicalz reunited in late 2000, assisting Triple H in his match with Stone Cold Steve Austin at Survivor Series. Since Paige is half-witch/half-whitelighter, she is equipped with numerous powers.

The engagement was called off when Guerrero was caught showering with two of The Godfather's hos claiming that "Two Mamacitas are better than one!" Guerrero turned heel once again as a result of the incident and was later defeated for the Intercontinental Championship by Chyna's friend Billy Gunn. She attended Prue's funeral and reunited the Charmed Ones. Just when it appeared that Chyna would leave Guerrero, he proposed to her and she accepted. Piper found Paige when she cast a spell to find a "lost witch". Chyna became visibly uncomfortable as Guerrero began to cheat in order to retain his title, while Guerrero was upset that Chyna was posing for Playboy magazine, even trying to invade the Playboy Mansion to stop the photoshoot. There, Paige was given to the Matthews. After Angle knocked Chyna down with the title belt, Guerrero "accidentally" pinned her while trying to revive her. However, this had to be kept secret so Sam and Patty took her to a church.

Guerrero claimed to not mind and then begged Commissioner Mick Foley to let him take part in a title defense between Chyna and Kurt Angle, claiming he was afraid that Angle would injure Chyna. Patty, the girls' mother, had an affair with her Whitelighter, Sam and gave birth to Paige Matthews. On August 27, Chyna won the WWF Intercontinental Championship. Paige Matthews: portrayed by Rose McGowan (2001-present). Chyna was upset when Guerrero pinned her to advance in the King of the Ring tournament. After Prue died, Piper got the responsibility of playing the role of the oldest sister. Over the next few months, friction began to build between Guerrero and Chyna. With Prue's death, the power of three was temporarily destroyed, only to be restored shortly after that when Piper and Phoebe found out they had another sister.

Guerrero successfully retained the title in matches against Saturn and Malenko before finally losing the title to Saturn on July 23. She had trouble with the right balance of work and play right up until her death at the end of Season 3 by the hands of the wind demon Shax, The Source's chief assassin. Guerrero defeated Rios after arriving at ringside in a 1957 Chevrolet, even wrestling in his tuxedo pants and a bow tie. Prue spent a lot of time and energy becoming a more powerful witch, and was referred to sometimes as the "superwitch" of the family. He and Chyna began a feud with Essa Rios and Lita, which culminated in a European title defence at Backlash 2000, which was also billed as the night of Guerrero's prom (he was said to have just earned a GED). Prue had gained the power of astral projection in Season 2, which is the ability to project a spectral form to a distant location, although Prue's version of Astral Projection was tangible/solid and could touch things. Guerrero won his first WWF title by defeating another former WCW wrestler, Chris Jericho for the WWF European Championship with help from Chyna. She worked at Buckland's Auction House until halfway through Season 2, when she quit to become a photographer at 415 magazine.

In March 2000, Guerrero began pursuing the affections of Chyna, who he referred to as his "Mamacita." Chyna initially rejected his advances, but allied with him following WrestleMania 2000, declaring that she "couldn't resist his 'Latino Heat'". During the 1st Season, she had developed the power of telekinesis, which is the ability to move objects with her mind. Guerrero and the other WCW wrestlers debuted in the WWF on January 31, 2000 as The Radicalz, appearing on RAW and interfering in a match including the New Age Outlaws. She was romantically involved with Andy Trudeau in Season 1, but at the end of Season 1, he died saving her life. After his return, he continued to be displeased with WCW management and signed with the WWF in 2000 along with top WCW stars Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko, and Perry Saturn. Being the first born, she inherited the most power from the family line. Guerrero survived the accident and returned to wrestling in a matter of months. She was the one who took care of Phoebe and Piper after their mother died when they were very little.

However, Guerrero was involved in a serious car accident in 1999 that cut short the lWo storyline. Prue was the eldest and most powerful sister character in seasons one to three. The group eventually grew to encompass almost all the Mexican wrestlers working for WCW at the time. Prudence Halliwell: portrayed by Shannen Doherty (1998-2001). The group was an answer to Bischoff's refusal to push Latino wrestlers in ways they deserved. She then finds Dex Lawson, who believes the real Phoebe Halliwell to be dead, who is played by Sex and the City's Jason Lewis, previously was to be played by Extra host, Mark McGrath). Guerrero responded to Bischoff's actions by forming the Latino World Order (or lWo), which was understood by the fans to be a mockery of Bischoff's New World Order. In Season 8, Phoebe is looking for love again.

Guerrero would later rebut this on WWE's DVD Monday Night War claiming that he tried to put personal differences aside for the good of the company, yet found himself angry and outraged once more because of Bischoff's continued refusal to elevate Guerrero and other similar wrestlers. She was single as the season ended. However, Guerrero later returned to WCW, leading to the belief that maybe Guerrero's angry speeches against Bischoff were actually a work (Guerrero later confirmed it to be a worked shoot). Phoebe had fallen in love with one of the teachers, Drake, at Magic School, but finds that her love won't last since he is set to die within two weeks. Guerrero then left the company for a period of months, angry at Bischoff for what he had done. Her powers were stripped for a short period of time from the end of Season 6 to the beginning of Season 7 as a punishment for using her power and spells for personal gain. The wrestler, furious, demanded Bischoff release him from his WCW contract on a live episode of WCW Monday Nitro. They were a short-lived couple and he had to leave on account of his temporary position.

Bischoff responded by throwing coffee at Guerrero. She went on sabbatical for a short time and got a ghost writer to take her place, a man named Leslie (Nick Lachey) who she fell in love with. These frustrations came to a head when Guerrero requested that WCW President Eric Bischoff either push his character or give him a raise for family reasons. For this reason, they briefly separated from each other. Despite Guerrero's success and popularity, he was one of many wrestlers who were frustrated at never being given a chance to be main event stars in WCW. Phoebe soon became a columnist for the column, later titled 'Ask Phoebe' at the 'Bay Mirror' and became very attracted to her new boss, Jason Dean - until she was possessed by Mata Hari, where she explained all the weird occurrences were because she was a witch. He lost the match, but called it his favorite match in the February 2004 SmackDown! magazine and his autobiography (published posthumously). The columnist decided as a token of her appreciation to give her a job.

One such title match was against Rey Mysterio at Halloween Havoc. During a magical mission, Phoebe saved a columnist from a perilous situation. In WCW, Guerrero found considerable singles success, winning the WCW United States Heavyweight Championship in late 1996 and the WCW World Cruiserweight Championship twice in 1997. Empathy is the ability to feel and hear emotions, often allowing control of others' powers. After their last match at the ECW arena, the locker room emptied and the two were carried around the ring by their fellow wrestlers while the crowd chanted "Please don't go.". Around Season 6, she developed a power that she couldn't control very well: empathy. Guerrero won the ECW World Television Championship on his debut and went on to have a series of acclaimed matches with Dean Malenko before they both signed with World Championship Wrestling later that year. Cole would return in later episodes to try and revive his love with Phoebe, never successfully.

As an homage to his fallen friend, Guerrero adopted his friend's finishing move, the Frog Splash. In Season 5, however, Phoebe left Cole and eventually vanquished him. However, Barr died before he could join ECW with Guerrero. She became the Queen of the Underworld for a short time and was carrying the 'Heir to the Source' or the 'Spawn of all Evil'. Guerrero and Barr's first break would come when they were noticed in late 1994 by the owner of Extreme Championship Wrestling, Paul Heyman, and were approached about wrestling for him in 1995. Her love for him featured prominently in the show through Seasons 3 and 4, to the extent that she crossed to the dark side. Along with Barr, Konnan and Madonna’s Boyfriend, Guerrero formed Los Gringos Locos (The Crazy Americans), a heel stable. This love was not only harmful to her, but it also caused the death of her oldest sister, Prue.

After Guerrero turned on Santo and allied with Art Barr as La Pareja del Terror (The Pair of Terror), the duo became arguably the most hated tag team in lucha libre history. During Season 3, Phoebe achieved the ability of levitation and came in contact with an attorney, who unbeknownst to her, was a half-demon named Cole Turner, aka Belthazor. In Mexico, he wrestled mainly for Asistencia Asesoria y Administracion, teaming with El Hijo del Santo as the new version of La Pareja Atómica (The Atomic Pair), the legendary tag team of Gory Guerrero and El Santo. She had been given the power of premonition or "seeing the future and past", since Prue had earlier said, 'She never looks towards the future...' In Season 2, Phoebe decided to leave unemployment to go back to college and complete her degree. In 1993, Guerrero began wrestling in Japan for New Japan Pro Wrestling, where he was known as Black Tiger II. The show focused a lot on her of how she developed as a character and her occupation. He became a star in Mexico long before he main evented in the United States. Phoebe Halliwell was the youngest child, until Paige was discovered and was very free-spirited in discovering her powers.

He debuted in 1987 in the Mexican Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre promotion. Phoebe Halliwell: portrayed by Alyssa Milano (1998-present); credited "and Alyssa Milano" from Seasons 1 to 3. Guerrero was raised in El Paso, Texas and attended the University of New Mexico as well as New Mexico Highlands University on an athletic scholarship, where he wrestled collegiately, before returning to El Paso to train as a professional wrestler. Losing Leo, as is revealed by an Angel of Destiny, will be motivation for an upcoming battle which will require all of the sisters' thinking, power and experience.
