James Hellwig (better known as The Ultimate Warrior) passed away Tuesday night, he was 54. As one of the most intense wrestlers on the scene in the eighties and nineties, Warrior attracted a considerable fan base and claimed the Heavyweight Championship (once) in addition to holding the Intercontinental Championship (twice). Probably his most famous match came when he pinned Hulk Hogan for the WWF belt at WrestleMania VI. He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame just three days ago, prior to WrestleMania XXX and even spoke at Raw yesterday night. His cause of death is yet to be determined.
