As someone for whom Eddie Guerrero's death is an early formative memory, this might be the closest we've had to that in the two decades since. Not just in terms of the magnitude of the talent lost, but in the suddenness and shock. He *just* wrestled, how can he be gone?
Wrestler deaths are among the hardest celebrity deaths to process. We see them multiple times a week for years. It may seem weird but in a way, a lot of them feel like extended family. We welcome them into our homes and lives and we grow fond of them. So when they pass, it hurts.
Saddened to hear of the death of Rick Achberger, known to the WWE Universe as ‘Sign Guy.’ For decades, Rick was a fixture at events holding a sign that expressed exactly how he felt about you that given evening. He will be missed by the entire @WWE family. We send condolences to his family and friends.
