10 Real Life Stories From The Final WCW Nitro

10. Chavo Guerrero Was Phoning Eddie Guerrero

It must have been one crazy evening for both sides of the WWF and WCW divide, but things must have been especially strange for family members - such as Chavo and Eddie Guerrero - during the Raw/Nitro simulcast. For the former, backstage at Raw Is War and somewhat safe in the knowledge that his job was secure, attention was turned to blood - Eddie was concerned for Chavo's future, and the pair were constantly phoning and texting one another throughout the night. It's unknown whether or not Chavo was scouting out a potential job with the WWF, but he must have been intrigued by the possibility of joining his uncle in the company. Of course, this is something that would eventually take place, and the duo would experience much success as 'Los Guerreros' in years to come. Imagine the frenzy backstage, everyone running around unsure of what the future would hold. Meanwhile, Chavo was on the phone to his older uncle, effectively having a direct line to what was going on over on the other side. It must have been somewhat of a relief for the younger Guerrero to find out that things were no more clear in the WWF, and there were wrestlers fearing for their jobs there too.
