After watching the recently released documentary on Peacock, do you think that would be the ultimate feel-good moment if they made him the recipient of the Warrior Award?
There's just something about the guy. He's the embodiment of the inner fandom in all of us.

As much as I like him and his story, I would say no.
I think him having a documentary is more than enough IMO.

Respectfully I still don't really see how this guy has much of a story. It's not really much more than "guy who goes/went to a lot of shows"

I’d say no because while he’s got a great story, it’s still not what the award was intended for originally.

Losing his mom to Covid was the only part that really got to me. Everything else again didn't really make me feel that he was a special case. And I'm not trying to be insulting or talk him down. He seems like a great guy

The Warrior Award is meant for those who have done a career's worth of service to a good cause or kids who have to battle life-threatening diseases.
Vladimir's a cool guy and all, but inducting him with the Warrior award goes against the spirit of said award IMO. Though he'd be a more worthwhile "celebrity wing" induction than most of the other jabronis in there.

I admit I've not seen the documentary here but has this guy done anything for pro wrestling that wasn't 'be independently wealthy enough and have enough spare time to go to way too many shows'?

I am surprised how split the results have been on this poll.

only if Miz Girl goes in the year after Nah, this kid has to go in first. Also, kind of crazy to believe that Miz Girl is an adult now. Man, I'm old.

I vote no, simply for the fact that he should have his own award. Call it the Vlad Superfan award, make it a one off, and be done with it. Bring Mr. T out and argue who loved their mother more.

If they get Rick Achberger to induct him, I say go for it.
