    To hell with "The Streak"... THIS is the saddest event in wrestling this week. Maybe this whole year. WTF happened? He was just on RAW this Monday!

    His speech on Raw was eerily prophetic.

    One of my favorite WWF/WWE wrestlers of all time. May he R.I.P.

    RIP, Ultimate Warrior. I can't believe it.

    He was one of my all-time favorites. I got to see him defend the WWF Championship against Randy Savage at a house show in 1990.

    Yes, it was. At the time, it seemed to just be him speaking of a career that was long over. Now I can't help but wonder if he knew deep down that something wasn't right with him, health-wise.
