Eddie’s pi$$ed. I said alright what do you wanna do? Beat him up? Coz we were just you know if he’s gonna fight I’m gonna fight and vice-versa. So he’s like “No, I’ll give him a pass”. So we literally gave a pass. So the night before Eddie died really I mean, Michael Hayes didn’t know how close he was to getting beat up. Literally we were gonna go in there and drag him up and beat him up.
So we said “Hey man, why don’t we go work out in the morning” and just as we got there we see Chris Benoit and Benoit goes “Hey man, what’s up guys”. “Hey, we’re going to bed but we’re going to train at 8 am”.
So I go to my room, Eddie goes to his room. I get a call from Eddie on my cellphone. He goes “Hey man, can I talk to you?” I say “Yeah, what’s going on, man?” He goes “I just really, I gotta talk to you”. I said “Okay, hold on. Let me run downstairs real quick, let me take care of stuff downstairs.” I don’t know if I was getting an extra key to whatever I was doing.
So I went downstairs and then I call Eddie codes room you know 5-8 minutes later and I go “hey man, you want to talk?” He goes “No, I’m okay. I’m cool” and I said “Are you sure? Let’s talk!” He goes “Nah, I’m cool man, I’m okay”. I said “Alright man, I’ll see you in the morning we’ll work out”. I think I had a beer then went to bed, I was gonna wake up and go work out at 7 am.
I got a call from one of security guards in the hotel. He says “Chavo, hey this is security in the hotel”. I’m like “Alright, why you calling me?” Guard says “Because your Uncle’s passed out in the bathroom.” I’m think the bathroom, we had just talked on the plane that Eddie was sober for 4 years.
