      Well, given the fact that this video is at least 3 years old, probably 5 or even as much as 7 years old, I guess that there was something in the intro that really dated it, and that could be why it was removed when they re-uploaded it, this happens with entries too.

    I recently watched Ricky Steamboat's biography. He said he never asked to lose belt. He asked for two weeks off. They said yes but later said he has to drop the title since they needed the belt defended on house shows. Ricky was pissed and changed his 2 week request to a couple of months.

    Although Eddie Guerrero was appreciated in his time, he is even more so today. It's understandable that the ratings took a dive after Brock left the promotion in 2004, but it certainly was not Eddie's fault. Eddie was a flawed but honorable man, and one of the greatest professional wrestlers ever.

    I’ve always seen similarities between Eddie Guerrero in 2004 and Shawn Michaels in 1996 in that they were pretty much set up to fail drawing wise.
    Shawn had to deal with Scott Hall and Kevin Nash leaving as well as Bret Hart leaving for 6 months added to WCW kickstarting The nWo angle.
    Eddie saw Brock Lesnar leave, SmackDown lose a lot of top stars to Raw during the draft and then Undertaker become more part time.

    You know that the Steamboat A&E Biography just dropped, so how could you get that thing wrong. He asked to take some time off to see his family, literally just 2 weeks and Vince said that they couldn't have him do that so they decided to take that belt off him, then Steamboat got pissed and left for months after dropping the belt. He never asked to lose the belt it was only 2 weeks.
