Ultimate Warrior dies, aged 54

[Pseudonym]

Any WWE fans here?

The day after being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, the Ultimate Warrior collapsed and died. Very sad - and it makes the acceptance speech he gave just hours earlier all the more haunting...

[ohjoshua]

wow, as if he knew he was gonna die with that speach.

[crazyfacials]

As a tribute we all should go to work with ultimate warrior facepaint on, also to the gym, and shake machines as violently as we can (or better yet ropes!)

 

 

someone linked me a video to him he was on wwf raw a couple of days ago (sorry been a long time since I watched pro wrestling) but he seemed to be sweating a lot from just talking, he also looked a bit out of breath, could of been an indication ?

I was shocked when I read about the passing of the Ulimate Warrior he was one of my old school favis.I can name few matches that come to mind like

1 Ultmate Warrior beating the Honkey Tonk Man at Summer Slam 1988

2 Ulitmate Warrior Vs Hulk Hogan Wrestlemaina 6 

3 Carrier ending match Ulitmate Warrior VS Macho King Randy Savage Wrestlemaina 7

I had a hard to understand his promos but I enjoyed them

I think for most people it's a nostalgia thing. They remember watching him as kids.

And even as kids, I think we all knew it was corny rubbish - but that didn't make it any less entertaining. Where one generation had old comic book heros, this one had WWE.

Pretty much this, back in the days seemed like every wrestler had a side job lol, you had a a repo man, someone who worked for the IRS, a dentist, a prison guard lol, was an awesome area

 

since gifs are not allowed here,  here are some of the warrior going nuts

Cheesy as but I watched it as a kid. Would still rather watch that than the Dragon ball z bullshit heaps of grown men seem to watch.

Over on WWE.com there lots of classic Ultimate Warrior classic matches,rare photos etc which are worth having a look

At the end of the day it's "sports entertainment" not to dissimilar to watching a theatre production, ballet or some other choreographed entertainment. Some could argue professional boxing is no different at times.....

Gotta say that no one does extravagant production like the McMahon family owned pro wrestling franchises, shit even circus de soleil could learn a trick or two from them!

Good giffage there! BTW, you can relax on the whole gifs thing. Sure, we don't want them taking over, but they have their place.

Nothing seems as good as when you are young WWF was fantastic entertainment. Remember the bushwhackers, representing NZ on the big stage. These days WWW not even worth watching. But the physique of some wrestlers, some are huge. RIP warrior, say hi to Andre the giant.

[2fierce]

Must be Dunedin thing watching wwf. Born and raise Dunno man.

Question for you guys with the recent passing of the Ultimate Warrior do you guys think most guys like Ultimate Warrior,Rick Rude,Macho man,Warload etc were using huge amounts of gear back then?
