Sometimes strange, sometimes stranger, and often indecipherable, The Ultimate Warrior (RN: Jim Hellwig) has passed on at the age of 54.  Hellwig collapsed outside an Arizona hotel at 5:50 p.m. on the 8th and was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital.

The Warrior appeared on Monday Night Raw on the 7th following his induction into WWE's Hall of Fame.

Fucking crazy dude probably raged himself to death.

Not that I'll miss this particular guy all that much, but I am displeased to see the continuing trend of pro wrestlers having subpar lifespans :[

Given the nature of the business, I'll be 100% surprised if steroid usage didn't contribute to his death somehow.
