14 WWE Wrestlers Who Defied Gravity Before Neville

2. Eddie Guerrero

Neville has admitted that Eddie Guerrero was one of his main influences growing up too, and it's not hard to see why. Eddie Guerrero is one of the greatest ever to have stepped foot in the ring, and brought a unique style of offence to the table. Guerrero was a cruiserweight who made it big, winning his first WWE Championship in 2004. He did that by pinning Brock Lesnar following a frog splash - his signature move - but there was more to his game in terms of aerial offence than that. Eddie was perhaps the most athletic of his esteemed wrestling family, and his legacy lives on nearly a decade after his untimely passing. Neville will be looking to emulate Guerrero's successes during his stay on the roster. And you'd think it's just a matter of time until he gets his hands on some individual gold or a spot higher up the card. Considering one of his idols has always been Eddie Guerrero, he doesn't really have a better example to follow. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkx-p_JpYyk
