From his speech on WWE Monday Night Raw:
Quote:

"Every mans heart one day beats its final beat. His lungs breathe its final breath. And if what that man did in his life makes the blood pulse through the bodies of others; If it makes them believe deeper in something larger than life; than his essence, his spirit, will be immortalized." - James Hellwig / Ultimate Warrior

seems pretty ominous to me today, and when I watched it live Monday night I had a similar thought (He's not coming back, this was a one time thing (over 3 nights)
I'm a closet Wrestling fan due to my childhood in Madison Heights, George The Animal Steel was the football coach at the high school, and often the (WWF) WWE stars would come to home games when they were in town, it was not odd to see people like Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, Warrior, Junk Yard Dog, Ko Ko Beware, Mr Fugi etc etc near the highschool or around town, and they used to run "contests" for the younger kids (elementary and junior high) where good marks got you free tickets to local events, I got to go to a few, as well as meet most of the "stars" back then.
Many were great guys (and women) and many of us knew them as Terri, Jim, Frank, Bob, etc and not just by their stage names.
