8 Wrestlers Who Went Nuts Overseas
1. Going Under
It took some effort to get sacked by WCW in 2000. The company was headed for the wall when Eduardo 'Juventud Guerrera' Hernandez headed for the unemployment line, but an out-there Australian adventure was enough to justify his sharp exit just months before the entire organisation ceased to be.
In 2000, when everything was falling apart for WCW, wrestlers on every part of the card were frustrated. And for Eduardo Hernandez, his frustration exploded in a fit of PCP-fuelled rage.
Somewhere in between the aggressive and hallucinogenic stages of a PCP high during an October tour of Brisbane, Australia, 'The Juice' was well and truly loose in the company hotel. Guerrera ran the hotel corridors stark naked, screaming all sorts including veiled threats of murder towards selected WCW executives.
Law enforcement couldn't curb his insanity - Juve turned his fire on the officers called to calm the situation down, with two filing assault charges to go with claims against him for indecent exposure, disorderly conduct, causing bodily harm and possession of a dangerous drug. A $1800 fine can't have stung too much considering the potential ramifications, with the convictions even being struck from his records to allow him to travel internationally with ease for his work. Upon receiving his walking papers from the Atlanta outfit, this was almost immediately an even greater slice of fortune.
