Yes, this yet another induction request. But I, personally, think it is one that is well called for. I think that the Ultimate Warriors non-wrestling hijincks should all be summed up in one induction.
Said induction could feature footage from Warrior's training video (and the phone call from the bill collectors), the infamous picture of him on CNN, some quotes from his rants on his website, clips from the comic book, and would simply HAVE to include an audio clip from his now immortal "queering don't make the world work" speech. I seem to recall he also tried to build a castle somewhere in New Mexico I believe. I think one induction dedicated to all of this nut job's non-wrestling ventures would certainly qualify as wrestle-crap, even if it is not exactly wrestling related.

The Queering speech by itself should get a Gooker consideration for this year.

I'm actually inclined to believe the building a castle thing is nothing more than an urban legend, as the only sites I've found that talk about it say "I've heard Warrior is building a castle!" with no evidence to back it up whatsoever.
But yeah, surely the rest of the stuff could perhaps be induction worthy.

Warrior did say his family has a coat of arms. Anyone out there creative and good enough with computer graphics to try and envision what that looks like?

Yeah but for all the crap Warrior has done... He seems to be living very well $$$$!! Thats what I dont get he was crazy, so you would think he was bad with money... But, Savage is messed up and he had the run for a long time for the money

If Warrior's so well off, how come the collection agency called at the end of his workout tape and said he defaulted on his phone bill?

If Warrior's so well off, how come the collection agency called at the end of his workout tape and said he defaulted on his phone bill? IMO, that's an interesting marketing ploy. Scenereo:I'm a Warrior fan. I get the video. I hear that at the end, and feel bad because my favorite wresler is having trouble, so I buy other Warrior crap. (end scene) I mean seriously, what I am wondering isn't that if he has the money why is that at the end. What I am wondering is why that is even in there. What purpose does that serve? |

I'm pretty sure RD threw that in the induction as a joke. I don't believe that's on the actual Warrior Workout video tape.

Hi, long time lurker, first time poster. Be fair, RD would need to write another book in order to compile Mr. Warrior's various antics over the years. And even then it would probably have to run into several scholarly volumes. Re. coat of arms, here's what I ran up with five minutes of nothing better to do and zero artistic talent, though I feel the main elements of Mr. Warrior's philosophy are represented. I realised as I was doing it it was starting to take a bizarre Popeye direction, so stopped and backtracked before adding a speech bubble saying "I'll saves yer from the queering, pumped up conservative true Americans! Ag-agagagag!"  |

Maybe he has so much money because he doesn't pay his bills. I live on a pretty tight budget but I too would have money if I didn't pay my bills.

I assume Warrior is talking about this, although I prefer Rudielfire's version. |

Know what's most amazing about the Warrior? That he's wrestled, what, a dozen matches in the past 10 years and we STILL talk about him all the time...

RD I don't think it would happen as much if he didn't do the things he did. Yeah he would come up in a conversation about wrestling in the 80s, but its the antics that strike up more relevent conversations (and that would eventually lead into talk about how great/craptacular he was in the ring, memorable angles, Hogan's "I thought you were dead!" line (probably the only time I enjoyed an Orange Goblin promo). It's somewhat like Robert Downey Jr. The guy hasn't made a major movie in years, but he is still talked about. |
