Legendary WWf wrestler Jim Hallwig, a.k.a. Ultimate Warrior, passed away yesterday, all too soon, just a couple of days after having been inducted into the WWF Hall of Fame.  Apparently he was walking to his car and collapsed.

Wow, I'm still trying to fathom that he passed away. He was my favorite character during the late 80's and early 1990's. I just saw him just a few days ago when he was inducted in to the WWE 2014 Hall Of Fame but anyway here is his speech that he made on RAW:

He was such full of energy, I remember when he picked up Andre The Giant at Madison Square Garden in 1989.

It's so weird, I see him on Monday Night Raw snorting and acting crazy cutting a promo then the next day he drops dead. His speech sounded like was talking about his eulogy. It's just so eerie.  :\'(

Ultimate warrior was one of my favorite wrestlers. I liked him and Macho Man Randy Savage.
They both are gone now. 
I saw the Monday night Raw YouTube video just shortly before he died.
He didn't look good. Seemed to be catching his breath a lot.


His best moment ever is when he won the WWF championship by beating Hulk Hogan... I think that was in Toronto too. Was it 1990?

I am glad he won coz having Hogan win all the time was getting boring.

Thank you for all that wild entertainment, Ultimate warrior.
