Well, I'd sure hate to be someone who thought that was the last Eddie Guerrero story we'd have on this list. Boy, would their face be red right now.

Without wishing to be insensitive, Eddie was having a rough time in the years prior to this death. This incident with Charlie Haas a little over 12 months before the aforementioned Angle scuffle was just one of a litany of problems he was having backstage. Admittedly, he wasn't really to blame this time and, were this an Am I TheA**hole? post, all of Reddit would be piling on Haas here.

Long story short, if a match hasn't been clearly laid out ahead of time and no specific instructions for it have been given, it then falls to the more senior man in the ring to call the spots. In a contest pitting Eddie Guerrero and Chavo Guerrero against Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas, that responsibility would fall to Eddie. Charlie Haas, however, disagreed.

During the match, Eddie injured his elbow and immediately told Haas to ease off the shots and take it easy on him. Haas, despite being less than a year into his WWE run, paid no attention to this call and continued to painfully work Guerrero over. Chasing him behind the curtain as soon as the bell had rung, Guerrero began to lecture his opponent on his conduct, only for Haas to turn and walk away.

Incensed, Guerrero decided to make the altercation a physical one only for, you guessed it, the amateur wrestler to take him down relatively easily before the two were eventually pulled apart.
