Despite her long career in the WWE, Sunny actually didn’t have her first WWE wrestling match until the battle royal at Wrestlemania 25. Then again, during her peak while working for Vince McMahon, she didn’t have to. Although Sunny was not the first non wrestling female of note in the WWE, (Elizabeth holds that honor) Sunny was a superstar in the dawning multimedia age. At one point she was considered the most downloaded woman on the internet and why not? With her California good looks, a smile that could be both cute and sultry and an overall appearance that could also appeal to any demographic, Sunny was also a great personality who could deliver on the microphone. She may not have been the first female inducted into the Hall of Fame, but she does go in as the first “Diva”.
It can not be argued that Eddie Guerrero deserves to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. The shame is that Eddie Guerrero is already there, as he was inducted the year after his premature death. Latino Heat was a star in WCW, and he became a major star in the WWE by showcasing his incredible wrestling acumen and charisma. Guerrero was a major talent and with all due respect to Pedro Morales and Tito Santana, may very well be the most beloved Hispanic wrestler of all time who ever competed primarily in America.
