He's in small classes because of learning disability so don't laugh at something you don't know about. I've had him and his sister for 7yrs now because of the parents choose other people and drugs so I have full custody of them. Im disabled after being diagnosed with a rare kidney disease at 5yrs old and started dialysis at age 16yrs old dude. I lost my life more times than I can count during those times. I missed all my childhood and doctors thought I wouldn't have even make it through my teenage yrs. Had a transplant and its doing good but my body just can't handle all work labor in jobs. I deal with depression anxiety! My nephew loves wrestling and he's always dreamed about meeting all kinda wrestlers.

[@GamingManual]

Bret is still my #1 GOAT, but Warrior is like a theatrical device that proves most wrestlers want their cake and to eat it to. You'll hear them constantly bitch how work rate and being the best technically in the ring doesn't matter, it's about getting over with the fans. Unless you're Warrior lmao. Guy captured the hearts of millions, made his money, and GTFO. I don't excuse his roughness and actually hurting others in the ring, that is indeed a hard line that I won't argue. But to act like the business isn't about drawing money is hilarious when it's not going their way, etc.

[@JM00237]

Lol hate on him all you want even Randy The Macho Man Savage liked Warrior. He was also liked by Honkytonk Man and a few others. Y'all act like he was total scumbag which he definitely wasn't, listen to his videos here on KZbin and pretty much everything he says is true.

[@erikj.2066]

@@JM00237Macho Man was a controlling prick that treated his wife (Ms Elizabeth) like a possession. Don’t really care if he liked Jim Hellwig. By most accounts, Jim was an insecure loner that got into body building, and started wrestling for the money. Vince McMahon smitten with his physique pushed him to the top despite the fact he didn’t wrestle like a professional, and couldn’t care less about his colleagues, or the blood sweat and tears they shed to earn their place in wrestling. I’ve seen his older internet posts about his history in the business, and most of the time it’s just long drawn out rambling. In later years, I think Jim had some introspection about his career, and the people he worked with, and made peace with several of the people during his induction. For that, I do respect the man. Honestly if he gave a shit about the business, the people he worked with, and strived to improve his technique, nobody would have anything bad to say about him.

He actually helped me through some hard times with his injections of inspiration on O. W. N.

[@NICKDEVILS420]

There is no doubting warrior was super over with the fans. Backstage he was clearly difficult to work with. Now i understand some wrestlers will speak the tune of wwe especially if they are employed by them but even former wrestlers and those not on good terms with wwe don't have many positive things to say about him. No doubt he had a great look, great body, energetic entrance, but he didn't want to improve his skills. Shawn michaels was a difficult guy to work with in the mid to late 90s by his own admission but he always did different things and improved his skills. Warrior didn't.

[@johnnyappleseed9638]

[@novaguy383]

Hell yeah ultimate warrior was badass in the late 80s!

[@Marionettetc]

@@johnnyappleseed9638 I honestly don't think it's about jealousy. I think the vast majority of wrestlers want to improve, entertain and get along with everyone. Wrestling is like any other job, you gotta see these people weekly, there's no reason to create unnecessary friction. I think we all loved Warrior, but it's not attacking him to say he was difficult to work with and self centered. Every single wrestler says the same things about him, I believe it.

[@wardrager]

Strangely enough, Sid is the most coherent interview in this compilation.

[@NCSUSoldier71]

#Irony

[@AnEternalEnigma]

@Newrounder Absolutely no one kicked out of finishes back then unless it was something like the main event of WrestleMania. Sid had an issue with Warrior kicking out of his finish on house shows.

[@burnsmybritches5857]

You must have stopped watching after Sid with that asinine statement..

[@ryanakahuss]

@Newrounder because warrior was known for kicking out of finishers in a very no-sell way, like he was just too powerful for moves to truly hurt him. its dumb and didnt help the business one bit @ that time, when kayfabe was still relatively strong.

[@Nobleshield]

What I gathered was the fact it was constant, rather than a different way of ending the match. Since Warrior kicking out of the powerbomb, especially with the way he would do it, would just shit on Sid. I got the impression his issue was the same finish that made him look weak.

[@TheMovieTriviaSchmoedown]

You do know that wwe changes the crowds reactions all the time, right? I don't know about this particular incident, but they've done it a lot in the past

[@aliyaj1018]

Example?

[@Goldnfoxx]

@@alabasterfigueroa4431 Yeah, but I saw WM6 live on PPV, and unless they were pumping cheers through the speakers live, then there's no question in my mind that Warrior's win went over huge. I get that skepticism when it comes to wrestling: I question it every time Jake Roberts talks about how you can't do the DDT safely anywhere but in the ring, I question it whenever Hogan talks about not knowing whether Andre was willing to do the job at WM3, and I question the legitimacy of several famous shoot moments. But given what you can still see and hear at the end of WM6, combined with Bruti's tendency to defend Hogan in any situation, it just makes more sense to believe your eyes and ears. And that's not a slap at brother Bruti, either. I always liked the Barber character and enjoyed his matches more than others seem to.

[@JRMagro]

He tried to say the honky tonk run in win was bs. Lmao ya right!!! Thats one of the all time great moments in wrestling

I was a Brutus Beefcake fan as a kid, but nobody would ever claim, on any level, that Warrior didn't reach the heights Beefcake did.

Warrior was my all time favorite for so many reasons. First, before you even see him, you hear the name. The Ultimate Warrior. Damn! And then you see him. Every kid in school wanted to look like him. Physique, long hair, make up. The interviews, although most people talk smack, I thought they were outstanding. Clever, creative, thought provoking, unusual and very intense. The music was perfect. Late 80s guitar driven hard rock that you have to run to the ring. Shaking the ropes and creating more electricity. I just wish he was a better wrestler. But he wasnt. He was just there to kick every ones ass.

[@invade81]

Exactly. As a kid I was into Piper as a brawler, Jake and Rude as showmen, Perfect for technical ability and swagger... Warrior made up for all of that with that psycho power gimmick. All I wanted to see was him run down there and destroy people for 20 seconds and when he did it was fucking magical.

The thing that many people fail to realize is the intelligence of the Warrior. He played by his own rules and knew that Vince is/was/& always out for himself and whatever money he could make off the men who make WWE what is is. Warrior made people mad because he was able to out maneuver Vince with the personal merchandising when he changed his name and retained all the rights to his own likeness. Dude wouldn’t roll over for greedy promoters and got himself and a few others paid. You have to admit it took balls to play the WWE game and win. I had the pleasure of meeting Warrior at a signing and he was amazing to all the fans that were there. The guy took the time to have actual conversations with every person that was in line to see him. His character worked. The WWE hall of fame induction was long overdue and you could tell what his family meant to him. RIP Warrior.

[@dub2536]

I like what you wrote. I never was that much into the WWE, and never met any major wrestlers. the Ultimate Warrior was so unique and his body so damed shredded and ripped. I always considered him the most exciting wrestler to watch IMO. RIP indeed! God bless!!

[@brandonwenzel2844]

The guy didn't WIN anything. The idiot could've had a long career with a lot of big paydays but he was too focused on the short-term. Now that's probably because he had no talent or love for the business, and maybe he was smart enough to realize that eventually promoters would catch on that he couldn't put on a decent match without a metric ton of help. So if that was the case, then yeah, he was smart in getting paid and getting out. But in terms of the money he could've made if he was willing to play ball, he lost out on a fortune by being an untrustworthy man-child. And really, the only good thing he did for the business was fuck off fast, and make way for guys who Actually give a shit and can wrestle.

[@MrJecull]

@Sinister 1 wrong. Warrior died on my birthday an hour after I cut my birthday cake. He died of a heart disease while walking to the car from his hotel room with his wife. Don't need steroids to get a heart disease.

That is great to hear that he was great with the fans. I met Savage once and he was a grumpy dude who acted like he would rather be anywhere than be with the fans...it wasn't just one fan.

[@salvadorromero9712]

I really enjoyed this very nice and wide varieties of experiences and impressions of Warrior. One of the best and most revealing I've seen! I especially enjoyed the story of Warrior's banana joke. Of all the sides of Warrior, that's one you don't really hear about and have trouble picturing, of making a fun and clever joke like that! Hard to even imagine Warrior joking around; I would have loved to have been there to witness it!

The story of the Warrior reminds me of the old saying, "Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, give him power." The ugliness of his character that he was so compelled to exhibit after gaining some fame as a pro wrestler still doesn't outweigh the joy I had as a kid watching that era of wrestling. Maybe he changed his ways? Unfortunately, he never made any public comment to affirm the transition of his thinking. O well. RIP Warrior. I am not going to judge you.

Both Hogan and Warrior couldn't work. Terry could work little bit better Jim. Hogan and Warrior were overrated.

[@azraelangelofred]

Jim Hellwig, AKA The Ultimate Warrior, was a legend in the wrestling business, with tremendous charisma and a massively intimidating and impressive physique and an excellent look. His character was a bit maniacal but I think it many ways it kind of fit. But there are too many wrestlers from different companies, era's, levels and styles pointing out issues with working with him for me to believe he wasn't problematic. As a father and a husband, never heard a bad thing about him. Fans never said anything bad about meeting him. But backstage, he seemed a WRECK. And maybe his idea's weren't the best in the world. I'm sorry but nobody's perfect. Hogan has problems putting people over and playing politics but is still a legend, Randy Savage has a reputation for paranoia and an overly-intense personality but is still a legend, Jake the Snake had a serious case of drug issues throughout a lot of his career but is still a legend and people do change over time but I think Ultimate Warrior had some serious ego and personality problems, even if he did to a spectacular job at entertaining.
