There are a lot of wrestling legends out there, who were once pretty big in the 80’s. The question is, who is the most inspirational of them all? Hulk Hogan? Bret Hart? Macho Man? Roddy Piper? Shawn Michaels? The Undertaker? The list can go on.
They were the greats back in the day, but in my opinion, I think the Ultimate Warrior is the most inspirational retired wrestler of them all. Warrior is so special in a lot of ways.
Here are 5 reasons explaining why:
- His match at Wrestlemania 6 with Hulk Hogan was a classic – This is one of the important reasons why we all love Warrior. It’s his classic match with Hulk Hogan at Wrestlemania 6 where Warrior won the IC title. This was the first time where we all began to think that Warrior was an important figure in the wrestling business.
- He doesn’t believe in comebacks and refuses a Hall of Fame induction – Warrior is a retired wrestler, and he “stays” retired. He doesn’t believe in wrestling comebacks. Most so called retired wrestlers have came out of retirement over the years, but not with Warrior. Why make a comeback and ruin what he had in the past? He had a good and positive career run, why mess it up, ya know? Fans want Warrior to make one last WWE run, but I don’t think he will anytime soon. Even though he is a retired wrestler, he’ll still do events for fans like autograph signings and things like that, just to entertain the fans that he still has. He also keeps refusing a WWE Hall of Fame induction, and that’s good. The WWE Hall of Fame is a joke anyway.
- His web presence is addicting – He had a web presence for years. For a long while, he’s been writing on his official blog, but then he launched. O.W.N. (One Warrior Nation), earlier this year where he could interact with his fans on a personal level. He’s a very honest guy. He’s a good speaker and just interesting to listen to. I like the way he thinks. He’ll open your eyes up on a lot of things. He’ll speak on topics about anything he wants, no holds barred discussions. That’s another reason why I like him.
- He’s good with his fans – He enjoys meeting his fans in person, signing autographs and posing for photos. He even responds to people online through the O.W.N. website.
- He makes great youtube videos – There’s a lot of wrestlers that have their own youtube channels, but Warrior’s the best. He also gets a lot of youtube hits than most of them. I’m always watching Warrior’s videos and always looking forward to his next one. He does a great job entertaining people than any wrestler out there.
- He’s the fuckin’ man!!! – He seems like a real good guy in real life. Most professional wrestlers can have huge egos but Warrior has no ego in him at all. He’s just down to earth and friendly.
That’s it, enjoy!
