Fans Did Their Part In Rey-Chavo Match

I thought that for the most part on Sunday the crowd was very in tune with the show. With that, their reaction to the Rey Mysterio vs. Chavo Guerrero opener should tell Vince that the whole Eddie angle really needs to go. Since Eddie's untimely death last November, they have done way enough exploiting of his name, character, and whatever else they get their hands on in terms of Eddie. Everyone that knew anything about wrestling knew that this fued was coming, and just about everyone didn't really want to see it.

I thought the crowd booing both men, and then booing Vickie Guerrero as she came to ringside spoke volumes. Even commentary from JBL couldn't save this one. The biggest pop in the match came when Rey's mask came off, but that was unplanned and he quickly rolled out and made amends with it.

It was overall a good wrestling match, but it just made you feel wrong watching it knowing the outcome was going to have to do with a grieving widow. I thought that the end may even be a deal where Vicki turns on Rey, which would only have made the whole situation worse.

Hopefully with Rey leaving to have surgery they will put this fued to an end, and hopfully to the constant using of Eddie's name all over the place. I disagree with people saying that is what Eddie would want. I think that the fans spoke out against it last night, and hopefully Vince and the writers will get the message.
