What an idiot! I really dislike the Warrior! Watching him do his stupid Hulk Hogan rip-off "power-up" was bad enough, but now watching him do it while wearing a suit!!!! LOL! What a goof!

A lot people say that about video games as well. Amazingly, both generate billions each year.  |

Of course it's fake. It was entertaining though, for a while.

The Ultimate Warrior...the guy's a joke anymore. Especially because he appears to be pretty much insane on his personal blog Warrior something or other...can't remember the full name of it, it's pretty ridiculous anyhow. Anyways, to display how much of an e-tard this guy is, I'll just link you to this article about entitled: "Something Awful vs. The Ultimate Warrior". www.somethingawful.com/d/legal-threats/legal-threat-ultimate.php |

Dudes! C'mon! The guy's crazy, yeah, and his conservative ramblings are "coherent" at best, but the guy's INTENSE in the ring. Yeah, I do know his SECOND match with Hogan in WCW sucked ass (this is mostly thanks to Hogan and his "great planning", though), and his in-ring ability is pretty darned limited (compared to Brett Hart and Kurt Angle, for example), but as long as his matches are short, and the guy's still sporting an incredible physique (at least, I hope he does), I can't complain. He might not be the best wrestler around, but damn is he fun to watch. WAAAY more fun than John "4 moves" Cena and Bobby "0 Charisma" Lashley. And don't get me started with Botchtista. ..Whats really unbelievable is that you guys actually watch that bullsh*t....I grew out of wrestling when I was 11 realized it was the fakest sh*t on the planet, next to saline breast implants and press on nails. You should've been around the WCCW (NO, it isn't a WCW typo. I really mean WCCW, as in World Class Championship Wrestling... go google it), when it was all about the WRESTLING with a great dose of original (at that time) entertainment due to its clever characters, great story build-ups (poor Von Erichs, but maybe it wasn't meant to happen), and incredible feuds. WWE is just shallow remnant of what the attitude era used to be (100% stupid, silly, and immature fun), and TNA is... well, what WCW was, which isn't bad, but isn't that good either |

Wo...wo... WO!!! Let's back up on the Hogan blame here. First of all, as far as Hogan's wrestling ability goes, go take a look at some of his wrestling in Japan. He is very technical and skilled. I really hate it when people put down his "wrestling" ability. That's not what his character was all about. People, back in the day, didn't come to see Hogan use headlocks and hammerlocks, they came to see him slam giants and "monsters". That is what his character was all about.
As for The Warrior... he was the first of many to be a "flash in the pan". And interesting character, very strong, but his own insanity ruined it. His biggest claim to fame is that he was the first to beat the "Hulk Rules" Hogan cleanly. Their WCW rematch was horrible, but let's not blame Hogan. Even though the man did go on the record and took most of the heat on himself. I'm sure Hogan wasn't about to lose to this guy for the second time. It didn't go well, but let's face it... few WCW "big matches" ever ended up being good. Look at Sting Vs Hogan. That had the biggest hype ever, and in the end it wasn't really all that great.

STOP. Right. THERE. Technical? SKILLED? No. Simply... No, man. Try Bret Hart. Try Curt Henning. Hell, Dynamite Kid, British Bulldog... NO. Saying Hogan is "technical" is like saying John Cena is. Even "BEATS ALL THE ODDS" Cena, hell, has a more expanded move-set than Hogan. No, I've watched his stuff on Japan, and no, it isn't technical. It's all flair, "leg-drop"... pure and simple. And yeah, Hogan vs. Warrior WCW rematch had many of his ideas, if not all (Hogan's declarations get messier with time, but hey, in the "Self Destruction of Ultimate Warrior" (though it sucks) DVD he claimed one or two ideas that exploded in his face... literally). Warrior was difficult to work with, no doubt about it. And had a more than limited move-set, definitely (his fights with Zeus show this better than anything). But the thing that we need to take in account here is that people LOVED his energy (just like people went to see Hogan because of his charisma... NO, not because of his in-ring capacity, don't you dare) and loved his matches. He fought Andre the Giant, for crying out loud, and his fights would always sell-out, COMPLETELY (Bret says so himself on his DVD when he talks about his days with "the Anvil" Neidhart). But he always had problems with Vince and Hogan. Why? Beats me. Just like why Vince ruined the "Invasion" storyline, it just boggles the mind. |

I'll be MORE than happy to take you on with this wrestling debate. I NEVER cared for the likes of Bret Hart or any other "technical wrestler" because that is NOT what Pro Wrestling is about. I have never seen a Bret Hart match that I didn't fast forward or changed the channel on. BORING! As for Hogan's technical ability... www.youtube.com/watch?v=8f-p0tkCuZgWhy don't you show me the "great technical wrestling" that the likes of Bret Hart and Curt Henning performed. All "flair"... my man, none of it is real. It's all flair. You seem to think that Bret's moves actually mattered... they didn't. Hogan's leg drop, Austin's stunner, or Hart's sharpshooter... it's all flair. You've ever tried to put someone in a sharpshooter if they didn't want to be put in it? LOL! Not possible. Finally, as for the Warrior... the guy actually believe he was the character... he actually though he was a superhero. That's nuts! He did have great energy and was fun to watch, but to a point. His Hogan rip-off "hulk-up" was even more rediculous than Hogan's! LOL |

You don't have to be a child to watch wrestling. Sure it's bullsh*t but it is entertaining, or was, anyway, and funny at times.

A.G., you're dogging on my man from way back...Hart and Henning had some of the most technical matches around back then. Bret Hart used to be my favorite. I'm still disgusted over the 'Screwjob in Montreal' when he lost the title to Shawn Michaels at Wrestlemania XII (I think it was that one). Other than hating those cheap glasses he wore, the guy was aces.
