If anyone really wanted to boo Eddie Guerrero by 2005, they were in the minority. Having captured the hearts of fans in 2004 by becoming WWE Champion, the 'Lie, Cheat, Steal' character perfected by Guerrero had turned him into a legend. Eddie's love of playing heel led to another turn to the dark side though.

In 2005, Guerrero toyed with a fragile Rey Mysterio and revealed his friend's biggest secret. Unable to impregnate his wife, Rey had turned to Eddie. No stone was left unturned in the angle. Dominic, Rey's young son, was actually Guerrero's, and he intended to prove it. Distasteful or not, the story was dramatic.

When Eddie turned from cold friend, who believed Rey had to tell his fans, to explosive dirtbag who enjoyed his twisted manipulation of Mysterio's life, it was something to behold. Crass storyline or not, seeing Guerrero heel it up again was a riot, and his unfair exploitation of a personal situation came as quite the surprise.
