Just got done watching it, what a documentary. It really started getting.. well good I guess, when he met with Triple H in his office and he patched up with WWE. It was heartbreaking to see how much he enjoyed being back, having a good relationship with WWE and then so suddenly passing away.
I definitely recommend everyone to watch this, all the backstage footage was great to watch and gives you a whole different perspective on what kind of guy Warrior was.
Also, some dark humour here, but Hogan really should not try to make peace with the people he had a beef in the past. He made peace with Savage back in 2011, and after only a few weeks Savage died, now he made peace with Warrior and after 2 days, Warrior died. Both of them died of a heart attack two. Damn you Hulk

I just watched it. Nice to see him and Hogan Bury the hatchet. Loved how Warrior stood his ground and told Hogan what he did was wrong.

Damn you Hulk Bret better keep holding onto those WM9 and WCW grudges.

Just finished the documentary. I'm almost speechless. Touching, beautiful, and a perfect tribute to the man and the legend of Ultimate Warrior. If anybody in the business has earned the right to rest in peace, it's him.

I'm pretty sure at some point in the third period of today's Boston Bruins-Detroit Red Wings playoff game The Ultimate Warrior's theme music played right before a face off, and was immediately followed by a Bruins goal. Thus proving the power of Destrucity.

Wow. Just finished that documentary, and like others have said, it's outstanding. It's damn near perfect. What really got to me the most was Vince McMahon obviously struggling with the death. I don't remember Vince ever being that openly shaken over a wrestler's death. The "Little Engine That Could" thing could bring a tear to a glass eye. Also, for as much shit as Hogan gets, I honestly think he was genuine in this and honestly regrets everything that happened throughout the years.
On a weird side note: I wonder if we'll ever find out why Warrior was limping during that weekend/Monday?

Just watched the documentary - really damn good. Though I couldn't help but chuckle at the sudden split-second shot of Bray Wyatt at the end. They probably should have made sure to edit that out.

Life is filled with lessons. I've seen what I hope is a lesson that can be learned from this.
Many people hated Warrior before this and thought he was a jerk. This was not without reason. Warrior had some personal beliefs that were offensive to some. Many never got past those beliefs and never allowed themselves to see who he was as a person beyond those beliefs.
This documentary showed people the human side of Warrior. It showed many their first glimpse of Jim Hellwig, the person beyond the face paint, wrestling, public speeches and youtube videos. They got to see a glimpse of someone who had a lot of passion and more importantly someone who loved his family and was loved by his kids and his wife. In short, just a really good human being.
I'm not trying to convert anyone into liking him. In my opinion, it doesn't matter of you agree with the man or even like him.
It is OK to disagree and get hurt by someone. It is OK to be offended by someone. However, just because someone hurt you, just because they offended you it doesn't mean that we must hate that person. It is possible to disagree and be hurt with someone but to also accept that beyond the differences that both people are good human beings.
Too many people hate one another for differences without getting to actually know the other one inside. Wars, fights and pain start that way. Families are torn apart because people won't stop and realize that in the end those differences don't matter. The only thing that matters is that deep inside we are good people trying to make the world a better place.
I hope that some people who hated the Warrior saw this and thought to themselves "you know, he wasn't a bad guy".
I hope the lesson learned is that just because we are different and see the world in totally different colors from one another it doesn't mean we have to hate one another. It simply means that we are good people who are just different. And that is what makes the world beautiful.

He talked about how he broke his ankle early in his wwf run or something like that and he didnt tell anyone because he was about to get his first push so he kept wrestling on it I think I'd could have to do with that

I think he permanently messed up his knee while training for the Orlando Jordan match.

Nancy Grace, you nasty c***. The state of America's "free media" sickens me.
Warrior, your legacy will not be tarnished by controversy. Us fans will make sure of it.
