There have been some pretty inspirational comeback stories in WWE, but few come close to matching Eddie Guerrero's. Latino Heat hit rock bottom in 2001: he had a painkiller and alcohol addiction, he was fired, he had to declare bankruptcy and his wife Vickie wanted a divorce. Eddie rebuilt his reputation on the indie circuit and eventually won his job back with the WWE. Little by little he proved that he could be trusted and quickly built a dedicated fan following. Although he was supposed to be a heel, Eddie was so entertaining that he came a babyface, pretty much against his and WWE's will. He was getting so over that WWE decided to push him all the way to the top. At the top of the mountain was Brock Lesnar, who was a lot larger than Eddie Guerrero. Lesnar was the typical WWE headliner and a man whom most believed would be main eventing PPVs for the next five years. Which made Eddie's shock win all the better. The hispanic star eventually came out on top after a gruelling thirty minute match, thanks to a little help from Goldberg. Lesnar was phenomenal here, doing everything he could to make Eddie look good and making the match believable.
