Wow. Just inducted a few days ago. Was never really into the whole WWF thing but I always liked him.

To bad, I caught him on TV yesterday when I was channel surfing. Seemed to be really happy about being inducted into the WWF Hall of Fame. But IIRC didn't he have alot of issues with management back in the day and after looking at his body I'm pretty sure he was using Ben Johnson's Vet............... sorry Trainer
RIP Warrior.

Goodbye to the king of insane wrestling promos. In this one he predicts the events of 9/11!
His later flirtation with hard-right politics was a natural course. The above promo was pretty much identical to what happens to someone's brain when they read a book written by Ron Paul. God now has a new Warrior to protect Heaven's ring ropes from ever being touched by the queers!

The Warrior had issues and a lot of them were with the people who ran the WWF now the WWE. As of a few years ago he still had a lot of issues dealing with Hulk Hogan and their time together. He did seem over all to be happy with life these last few years and was excited to be inducted into the hall of fame. He brought joy to many while in the ring and his death is a true shock. He will be missed by many. RIP Warrior.

R.I.P. Jim "Ultimate Warrior" Hellwig (1959-2014)
When I watched him as a kid, I was always in awe of his ring entrances, and his intensity. He will be missed.
