That documentary was outstanding, as good as the Bryan doc. Incredible production and turnaround.

I'm watching the Warrior bio right now... During his conversation with Hall at WM, there's a note posted in the background to stay away from the middle announce table. Not even an Easter egg, just a cool little thing to see.

A few people are complaining that they edited out CM Punk from the Royal Rumble poster as featured on the programme. Pretty anal if they even go to those lengths to remove him.

The Ultimate Warrior: Greatest Matches was pretty much 90% from his DVD with only a few recent talking heads added in. I was expecting a little more to be honest. Sting's appearance was a pleasant surprise and that was about the only reason I'd recommend it.
Still need to check out the other Warrior tributes though.

They put all of their efforts into the Warrior: The Ultimate Legend documentary. There is a little bit of Warrior's comments borrowed from the DVD but most of it is new and it is fantastic. I can't believe they put it together in a week. Prepare to weep uncontrollably by the end.

That's the cool part though, his greatest matches and the documentary are the DVD, one they aired for free for Warriors fans on the Network. They could have easily just not put it on the Network and kept a price tag on it.

It was honest, but never petty, from both sides, and still managed to really showcase just how big a star he was. Plus all that fantastic WM weekend footage of Warrior backstage. One of the best things they've ever produced

Just got done watching the Legends of Wrestlemania special and The Ultimate Legend special. Absolutely amazing documentary. Amazing they could get Sting to get an interview on such short notice, and get everybody to take part in it that did. Found it really interesting that they focused as much as they did on the Self Destruction DVD. It got harder to watch as it started getting to the end because you knew what was going to happen. Especially hard to see Vince have tears in his eyes in his entire interview. Great production from the 'E. Wish they could put this up for some kind of award.

Seeing Vince with tears in his eyes like that is surreal, I set trough the entire thing with tears running down my face. Vince and Warrior really shared a really special relationship. When he greeted Warrior at the hall of fame, you could tell that to Vince, this was what he had wanted for way to long. Only for Warrior to die shortly after. Amazing doc, amazing effort and fantastic spirit of WWE.

I was surprised to find myself enjoying his match with Andre to be honest. Not a classic by todays standards no, but fun to watch. At least to me anyways. I was a tad shocked to see Warrior choking the shit out of Andre and everyone being so nonchalant about it, especially compared to now when it can get a performer fired. I enjoyed it for the complete train wreck it was. I mean that warrior/andre match is easily the worst match I've ever seen. I mean just wow was that awful. That's what you get though when you throw a guy like warrior who couldn't wrestle a lick with someone who's health problems had caused him to be so immobile that all he could really do is choke, throw awkward as hell clubbing forearms, and well..that's it lol. There is a thread discussing what many consider the worst match ever over in japan involving some guy who vince thought would be the next hogan but I can safely say that after seeing both matches, that warrior/andre match BY FAR is worse. Not a single thing about that match was anything but terrible. In between just standing there hugging each other, Every single blow and "move" just looked soooo bad. I'm really surprised they decided to show that match as I've seen others with him and warrior that were really bad but weren't that incredibly bad

Did anybody else notice during the Legends of Wrestlemania: Warrior that when he was shown visiting with Sgt. Slaughter and receiving a potato, somebody dressed up like the Ultimate Warrior sprinting by? What was that all about?

I finally watched the Ultimate Legend doc this morning. I'll be damned if I didn't get choked up towards the end. This is a fantastic documentary.

I don't remember if it was during the documentary or the roundtable, but at some points you could hear a slowed down classical guitar version of the Warrior's theme and it was pretty damn sweet.
