he had some completely bizarre beleifs, if you ever watched his youtube channel. He thought the body never needed "off" days to recover. he said he never had an off day, and felt it was bullshit.

he felt the need to be driven 100% all the time, never stopping.

that was part of his popularity in wwf. He was a maniac unleashed, an unstoppable force. Apparently he was an unstoppable person to manage as well....which led to his demise.

Wow, the dude is younger than me, I thought he was older. :hmm:

It's sad that the WWE site does not even use his real name. :|

wait, he died again?

That's the first thing I thought, lol. But I guess that was an urban legend that there were actually 2 Ultimate Warriors. Was he sick with something? I imagine we may find out in the upcoming weeks that he may have been sick and Vince (or whomever it is now) gave him one last hurrah. If not, queue the conspiracy theories please. Perhaps Vince game him one last hurrah and then had him poisoned. I don't watch wrestling but curious that he made an appearance after being gone 20 yrs and then died 3 days later.

There was a fake Warrior in WCW called Renegade, also Kevin (iirc) von Erich played the Ultimate Warrior in a match, although I don't think anyone would admit to it. The theory developed from when he returned to WWF with short hair and he was not nearly as cut, so people began to discuss the possibility he had died and been replaced.

After doing a good bit of research this morning it appears he may have suffered a heart failure after his flight back home from the Raw taping. Maybe the thought of all the great times and money he missed when he flaked on the WWF just hit him all at once when he got home and his heart couldn't take it anymore.
