eikerir Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 it's on WWE.com "WWE is shocked and deeply saddened to learn of the passing of one of the most iconic WWE Superstars ever, The Ultimate Warrior. Warrior began his WWE career in 1987 and quickly went on to become one of the biggest stars in WWE history. Warrior became WWE Champion at WrestleMania VI, defeating Hulk Hogan in an epic encounter. We are grateful that just days ago, Warrior had the opportunity to take his rightful place in the WWE Hall of Fame and was also able to appear at WrestleMania 30 and Monday Night Raw to address his legions of fans. WWE sends its sincere condolences to Warrior’s family, friends and fans. Warrior was 54 and is survived by his wife Dana and his two daughters."

JRGoldman Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I don't want to speculate, but the timing of this gives me an awful feeling that he took his own life. I hope I am wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RazorbladeKiss87 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Felt weird sharing space with that last post so I apologize for rapid succession posts. This was partially posted in the Main Event thread. If there is any truth to the "return of the six-man tag titles" rumor, I'm in full support of it. I've always enjoyed tag matches but in the past few years I've become a fan of six (or more) man tags. There was a big one on an episode of Raw from (I think) 2011 that really showcased how over they can get with the live crowd and it helps keep the booking from falling into the trap of trading wins on Raw and Smackdown and then having a PPV match without a ton of heat. Yesterday's episode of Raw featured another six-man that proves this point. I'd also like to throw in my support of the skull face masks The Shield have been wearing. Such a cool group. The "bacon strip" mention went over my head but I'm not even sure I want to know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nature Boy Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 It's really sad to think about how many wrestlers from the mid 80s - early 90s died young. I can't imagine what was flowing in the locker room during that period. Such a sad situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ultimoDANK Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Someone mentioned a few pages back that Cena doesn't really "fit the current style" and that's nonsense. He's had great singles matches with Bryan, Cesaro, Rollins, and Harper. I'm not the biggest Cena fan in the world but I gotta believe working with him has only helped those guys. I would like to see Brock get his win back but there's plenty of ways they can go with Cena. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 That would be kind of a good gimmick....the Ultimate Worrier. Maybe slap it on Zach Ryder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm talking purely character wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
