If you were born in the 80's, the name 'Warrior' should ring a bell when it comes to WrestleMania. The only guy that flogged so many champions in the 90's before dissappearing into tin air and reappear again 2years
ago. The Wrestling legend has died at the age of 54.
Warrior began his career with WWF (before it was renamed WWE) back in 1987, and quickly became one of the most popular wrestlers of his generation. He even kicked Hulk Hogan's ass at Wrestlemania VI, and people were happy about it. Considering Hogan's popularity at the time, that's pretty amazing.
One bright note is that he lived to see his induction into the WWE Hall of Fame, which took place just a few days ago. He also attended WrestleMania 30, and gave this short speech on last night's Monday Night Raw.
Warrior was his legal name, by the way. His original name was James Brian Hellwig, but he had it changed in 1993. He leaves behind a wife and two daughters.
At any rate, R.I.P. Warrior. You were one of the only guys on the planet who could make dressing like a girl's bike look cool. You will be missed.
