I don't know what to feel about this, one of the craziest guys in pro wrestling passes away after being indicted in the Hall of Fame.

That's too bad.  He used to be one of my favorite wrestlers way back in the day.  RIP Warrior.

One of the guys I worked with dies a coupe of weeks ago. He was 47. I'm 58.
You just never know.

Sad news.  Big fan of his. 

Sadly, the average pro wrestler dies much younger than most people.

So the Ultimate Warrior is actually dead this time? If so, R.I.P. brother.

RIP Warrior - So sad 



Ultimate Warrior and Undertaker will ALWAYS be my favorite wrestlers.

That's a shame.  That guy was always the fun kind of crazy.

When I was a kid the Warrior was relatively new to the WWF.  As soon as his entrance music blaring and his sprint to the ring you bet I was hooked.   The guy couldn't wrestle plain and simple but he, much like Hogan, was an amazing showman with his rope shaking, power gestures and so much more.   I had pictures of him and other wrestlers on my wall as a kid.  Hell, I even had a face paint kit which I'd use to dress myself in Warrior's trademark.    His ranting interviews were incoherent but I found myself time and time again enthralled with his tenacity and talk of elder gods, the cosmos and how he was going to destroy his next opponent.  I cheered when he won the belt against Honky Tonk and when he won the belt against Hogan.   I also cheered when he came back against HHH and keep in mind I was in college.  I saw him live a few times, the last being when he entered WCW to confront Hogan. He was a bit zany and I'm not sure if he really separated himself from his character much.   And although I didn't agree with his extreme right wing stance or a lot of his logic both business and life wise, he was a great man as a wrestler.  Always Believe, RIP WARRRRRRRRRIIIIIOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRR!!!
