10 Most Emotional Wrestling Moments

9. Chris Benoit And Eddie Guerrero Hug At WrestleMania XX (2004)

Tragedy would later befall both Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero, but the magical moment they shared at WrestleMania XX cannot be forgotten. Problems in their respective personal lives aside, Benoit and Guerrero were supremely talented in-ring performers. They were also the best of friends away from the ring. WWE gave them the chance to celebrate together as buddies at 'Mania XX. Another Madison Square Garden moment for this list, the ending of the show was emotional. It's been said that both were never shy to let emotion show on their faces, and that became clear to wrestling enthusiasts around the world. They had reached the top of the mountain, together. With Guerrero the WWE Heavyweight Champion and Benoit the World Heavyweight Champion, the friends were able to share a hug mid-ring. Confetti fell from the ceiling and there were smiles all round, because pro wrestling had won out over 'Sports Entertainment' briefly in WWE. Things would never be the same again for both men, but at least they had this moment.
