10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (Dec 8)

7. Jimmy Jacobs Will Never Forget Eddie Guerrero's Graciousness

Jimmy Jacobs hasn't exactly been negative since being fired by WWE in October for hanging out with the Bullet Club. In fact, the ex-creative team member has been fairly upbeat about the opportunity he had to write television for the biggest company in the land. He's also happy to recall others who were nice to him.

When he was just 21 years old, Jacobs found himself backstage at a WWE event in Pennsylvania. Jimmy was solely there to hang out with his pal Paul London, and was left stunned when officials revealed they needed someone to do the job for Eddie Guerrero in a squash match. Suddenly, Jacobs was thrust into the spot, and he went to inform Eddie who he was.

Jacobs told Wrestling Inc that Guerrero quietly apologised for having to beat him quickly. The veteran then went on to say that he hoped they'd wrestle under better circumstances so he could help Jimmy's career along rather than hurt it. To this day, Jimmy Jacobs has never forgotten how gracious one of WWE's top names was to him.
