Eddie Guerrero is dead? BBG too?

How the mighty have fallen

I was rather surprised that Curt Hennig, aka "Mr Perfect" is also dead. One of my favorite heels.

Yeah, Eddie was found dead in his hotel room before a match IIRC.  I think he died of a heart attack... can't remember if drugs were involved or not.  Eddie and Chris were best friends and died within a year of one another.

Wiki is your friend:

On November 13, 2005, Guerrero was found unconscious in his hotel room (The Marriott City Center) in Minneapolis, Minnesota, by his nephew, Chavo. Chavo attempted CPR, but Guerrero was pronounced dead when paramedics arrived on the scene. He was 38 years old. An autopsy  revealed that Guerrero died as a result of acute heart failure arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Guerrero's wife Vickie claimed that he had been unwell in the week preceding his death. On the November 30 edition of WWE Byte This!, Chavo said that Guerrero had been working hard and was at peak physical fitness as a result, doing cardiovascular and weight training exercises every day.

Benoit died in 2007, btw, so your memory is failing.

Apparently heavy duty steroid use combined with large amounts of painkillers takes a toll on a body. 

I recall Paul Atriedes vociferiously arguing otherwise, but he doesn't post anymore. Coincidence?
