@@homedeezyfasheezy5662 It could still happen. Warrior is gone, but Snake, Hart, and Honky Tonk Man are all alive and active on the shoot interview scene.
Jim Powers mentioned in his shoot interview that he was friends and a travel companion with the Warrior and the marks flipped out and called him a liar because a big star like the Warrior wouldn't hang out with a "jobber" like Powers.
I don't love warrior, but I will say, it takes a pretty good guy to hear the things bret said about him (which from the things ive heard bret say, have never been very kind to warrior) and not insult him back. He just said, 'I don't get it'. Respect the hell out of him for that
And Warrior was 100% in the right on that point. He always respected the Hart family and Stu in particular, so there was no reason for Bret to constantly go on the attack against Warrior the way that he did, other than pure, unadulterated wrestling purity snobbery.
When he said "I don't get that", he wasn't talking about Bret insulting him. Well, maybe in a sense, he was but that's not what "I don't get that" means. Warrior was questioning, at least in part, The You-Know-What You-Know-What.
If Bret didn't patch it up with Vince he'd of had his own sorta "self destruction" DVD. I think the working title was "screwed: the Bret hart story", man it'd of been weird seeing but interesting. They'd of had Vince sitting there on how unprofessional Bret was, Shawn and hunter would of jumped into the mix too. Wish wrestling was that interesting again.
I think there is a subtle difference though. Although he clearly kept it private, I firmly believe that Warrior had a terminal heart condition and knew his time was very, very limited. Just look at him only a year - 18 months before he died - he was still in phenomenal physical shape - look at the signings he did, the video game advert. Then look at just his last 3 or 4 months, and particular last few days you could see he was frail and seriously unwell. It all advanced very, very rapidly, but there is absolutely NO way he didn't know he was at the very least seriously unwell. He wanted a last chance to address the fans before he died, and I believe that was his motivation in reality. This is very different to Bret.
@@cengiztemi8713 Because it's incredibly clear to see that his physical condition deteriorated massively over the course of a very small number (4-6) months, from being in excellent physical shape in mid-late 2013, to the shape in was in the days leading up to his death. This was not difficult to see.
There only ever was one Ultimate Warrior. It was always Jim Helwig. There was an old urban legend that the "original" Warrior died in like 1991 and when the Warrior returned like a year later, he had been replaced by Kerry Von Erich (The Texas Tornado). But that's just a myth. Jim Helwig was always the one and only Ultimate Warrior.
Funny thing about the ultimate warrior is, you go to most people my age and talk about wrestling, when everyone loved it and it was the most popular thing going, many say ‘ultimate warrior’ was their favourite, me included and love him til this very day. But the wrestlers from that era don’t rate him, I think a lot of it is jealousy, yes he didn’t have the skills of a bret hart or mr perfect but he had something so special which transcended wrestling. We loved him. He is the Lamborghini Countach of wrestlers, didn’t handle well at all but was awesome.
There was a 101 factors you seem to miss. I loved him back in the day. Yes some did have the red eye when it came to him having very little talent and being pushed to the moon without doing the rounds.. His attitude towards the other wrestlers stank. His attitude towards the business stank. His attitude towards the fans stank. (Multi-stories of him making "make a wish" kids wait for hours for him to show and ignoring kids if there were no TV or Pap taking pics.) What he has said in the many uploads that have been taken down.. Taken down because they went way to far and were sick. 101 shoot interviews saying that the entrance was all he had and was blown before the bell even rang and made working with someone who could work.. 10 x harder and the one person who didn't care was Warrior.. I'm 45 and the era of Warrior. He was of his time and no more..
I just feel like Bret forgave Vince but Vince wanted to cash in on their heat. So he organized the whole reunion and tried to appease the Hart Family legally. It's still only a drop in the ocean
Oh, come on. Poor poor Bret Hart! Do you think that Lawrence Oliver felt betrayed when his director had Hamlet die in the end after all? Do you think Lawrence Olivier felt betrayed when his director had Othello die following Iago's scheme against him but refused to let Othello himself kill Iago before he died? I wonder if the actor playing Iago enraged him by telling him, "I'm not going to do the same for you."

Had Warrior stuck around for that New Generation era. Guys like Bret and Shawn would have gave Warrior the best matches of his career. Although I think his in ring work and gimmick would have had to evolve. Kind of like how Sting went from the surfer to the crow.
Sting was never a "surfer," misinformed one. It drives me nuts when people say "Surfer Sting." Such nonsense! He was just STING-an incredibly charismatic, colorful, kick-butt character who was insanely over with the fans. Then, one day in 1996, in a momentary lapse of reason, Steve Borden took advice from Scott Hall (of all people) and decided to destroy everything that was cool about his iconic character, which was loved the world over, and wound up spending the next 25 years impersonating Brandon Lee. Tragic.
Warrior couldn't hang around in a match with Bret or Shawn.. they could only do so much with him. He had the gimmick, presence and body but his wrestling was dire. Just like Hogan but Hogan moved with the times and re invented himself
to be fair bret and warrior were different cats. bret would put himself in a position to be screwed over by the wrestling company because he felt a committment to the business. Warrior looked out for himself (not wrong just a fact). he wouldn't put himself in a position to be screwed by vince or bischoff...if anything he would put the screw to them
I don't always agree with Udubs but he's a straight shooter for the most part and i sympathize with his fighting for money he deserved for the work he was doing and the money he was making the company he was a superstar and wanted to be paid as such and it's the same in all professions people make a difference
I think people dislike Jim because they didnt understand him at all. This person is in his own world and he has his own ways. Bret Heart criticizing him for not meeting a Make a wish kid. Bret needs to understand that some people dont feel comfortable meeting with sick kids like that. Warrior being brutally honest and to the point person wouldnt know what to say to that kid. What was somoene like Jim gonna say to a dying kid? "Hold on kid, you wont die"? It's not about Warrior being coward like Bret claims- its just its a very idiotic thing for many people to meet dying kids because they are their heroes. Especially when you are very realistic person. My father was like Jim in this regard and he couldnt stand watching people suffering. It ate him inside. Especially watching kids crying or in pain. it made him deeply uncomfortable and disstressed him deeply. Whenever those documentaries of showing sick kids women in concentration camps would show- he would just close his eyes and beg me to change the channel. jim was not a person who could make people laugh. So he couldnt even try doing this. Idk, its just there is this character of the warrior who is all about truth, fighting, being about the way of the warriors and Im still struggling to come up with what was he supposed to say to that kid. I understand Bret Hart's position too, but knowing people like Jim and my father- I just must say nobody is in the right about this. Im sure that Warrior didnt choose not to meet with the kid because of cowardice. Its just some people.
Maybe so. But this guy did enough to destroy his own legacy. He is a bigot, racist shovenist and tore down anyone he didn't think was a proper human. He was a dick.
Jim was a prickly personality, and I didn’t agree with his political views. But I found myself agreeing with him most of the time. Many of the guys who complained about Warrior weren’t 1/2 the draw he was in his prime. And no one has a more inflated opinion of his own self-worth quite like Bret Hart. If Hogan never left, his ceiling would have been IC Champ, and that’s just the truth.
I was a kid back then. I was sick of Hogan. I was cheering for Sid at Wrestlemania 8. I liked Bret way more. Hogan was on his way out. He didn't start getting interesting again until he turned heel in WCW. But that's just the perspective of one fan.

These guys have phones... and long working relationships... maybe they had a few phone calls... and settled their differences... or its wrestling and everyone is a mark
Bret rightfully buried Warrior in his book by describing how in 1990 Warrior was told by WWF management that there was a cancer ridden little boy and his parents waiting for an autograph backstage near the ramp. Instead of doing the right thing and signing the autograph for the kid he left the kid waiting all night in the arena. Then after wrestling his match he left the arena leaving the kid devastated. Bret said he lost all respect for the Ultimate Warrior that day. Bret went as far as to say as much as he disliked Hulk Hogan on a personal level Hogan was always a class act when it came to meeting with and signing autographs for little kids. For Bret to give Hogan respect shows how bad what Warrior did was.
You ask Bret a question he gives you a very honest answer. Don’t ask the question you what an answer to and say , oh you are bitter. He is entitled to his opinion. Nobody has been through more shit or was a better technical wrestler then he was. He is allowed his opinion when asked.
Crazy how most of this stuff he's talking about is only 10 years or less from 2006 when this interview took place. He's talking about it like it was 40 years ago.
Hes only one of many veterans of the business to be suspicious of Montreal. Bam Bam, Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, Sean Waltman, Tammy Sytch to name a few are on record saying the same.
I still think that the 'Screw Job' was the best kept, smallest circle of ears, longest running, Kayfabe, in wrestling history. Much needed too!! Everyone was getting Smart.
its quite simple, until he got fucked.. both of them had stated that vince and bret were as close as a surrogate father and son. like not close for the show of it.. they were genuinely close
Interesting Warrior talking about the Bret Hart documentary on how the cameras being in the right place at the right time. I always thought that too. There are certainly theories which point to the Screwjob just being one big work right? To maybe propel Vince’s character and other reasons
Because of how scripted pro wrestling became by the 1980's, not one true wrestling fan will ever believe Vince and Bret didn't together plan, "The Montreal Screw Job," as a way to let Bret leave WWE with his head held high as, "The good guy." Never forget Bret received the highest guaranteed salary of any wrestler with his level of talent when he entered the WCW. Without question, Bret was the most popular wrestler when he wrestled in Canada but got little if any reaction from fans in Atlanta, yet had no shame cashing that huge paycheck.
@@Aizenborgman he put him over clean 1-2-3.... After 7 chair shots, 5 hand grenades, 3 stabbings, 44 bullets from a machine gun and also some flash paper.
@@cengiztemi8713 which is probably why he went along with it let's be honest. Guaranteed money 💰 to do nothing. If he wanted to stay in WWF and not get paid then he's really a mark for himself. I wonder how much Hunter was getting back then. I'd say he won out there.
Yup, They all hate vince, say he's a bad dude. Then all is forgotten when they get in the Hall of Fame. Don't know about anyone else, but if my brother was killed during a show, i sure as hell would not be happy about vince making the Show go on. I like Bret, but i lost respect for him for hugging Vince's neck.
the critics about bret hart on warrior was about a sick kid that waiting for the warrior after a show and he never showed up to sign that sick kid or meet them that was critics about bret hart to the the warrior in wwf time when he was huge star there that he had such power on the fans that made money for his family or him self to make wish kind think that he never shwoed at all back then thats why bret hart said that he is no good human been at all !!
Rightly so - he had been subjected to unwarranted and unprovoked attack for several years for absolutely no reason, by promoters, fellow wrestlers, and wrestling 'journalists'. You'd (rightly) be defensive too if you were him, particularly around this time.
It really started after Warrior took Vince to court (and won). After that the WWF stooges started talking bad about him, even the newer wrestlers that never met him (all to stay on Vince's good side I guess). The peak was the Self Destruction video. That was pathetic...
I love how Warrior adds two extra syllables to the word documentary. Absolute legend.

Well that’s exactly what he was saying- why he thought it was a work
His take on the screwjob is spot on imo. It was a worked shoot essentially.
RIP Jim
I think people dislike Jim because they didnt understand him at all. This person is in his own world and he has his own ways. Bret Heart criticizing him for not meeting a Make a wish kid. Bret needs to understand that some people dont feel comfortable meeting with sick kids like that. Warrior being brutally honest and to the point person wouldnt know what to say to that kid.
What was somoene like Jim gonna say to a dying kid? "Hold on kid, you wont die"? It's not about Warrior being coward like Bret claims- its just its a very idiotic thing for many people to meet dying kids because they are their heroes. Especially when you are very realistic person. My father was like Jim in this regard and he couldnt stand watching people suffering. It ate him inside. Especially watching kids crying or in pain. it made him deeply uncomfortable and disstressed him deeply. Whenever those documentaries of showing sick kids women in concentration camps would show- he would just close his eyes and beg me to change the channel.
jim was not a person who could make people laugh. So he couldnt even try doing this. Idk, its just there is this character of the warrior who is all about truth, fighting, being about the way of the warriors and Im still struggling to come up with what was he supposed to say to that kid.
I understand Bret Hart's position too, but knowing people like Jim and my father- I just must say nobody is in the right about this.
Im sure that Warrior didnt choose not to meet with the kid because of cowardice. Its just some people.
Sounds like your dad was a very weak man.
He would go to eventually hug Vince...so i guess je got it along the way.
That life is to short to keep grudge and that everyone as a good side.
“Documenterary”
Looks like Bill Lumberg on ‘Office Space’ 😂
Isn’t this the one the interview wwe put well outta context on the self destruction doc?
Think it is...
Maybe so. But this guy did enough to destroy his own legacy. He is a bigot, racist shovenist and tore down anyone he didn't think was a proper human. He was a dick.
The interviewer was very good with his questions. He would still be a good podcast host
"He went down to Florida and hugged Vince" so did you.
Jim was a prickly personality, and I didn’t agree with his political views. But I found myself agreeing with him most of the time. Many of the guys who complained about Warrior weren’t 1/2 the draw he was in his prime. And no one has a more inflated opinion of his own self-worth quite like Bret Hart. If Hogan never left, his ceiling would have been IC Champ, and that’s just the truth.
I was a kid back then. I was sick of Hogan. I was cheering for Sid at Wrestlemania 8. I liked Bret way more. Hogan was on his way out. He didn't start getting interesting again until he turned heel in WCW. But that's just the perspective of one fan.
@@feebypeels2883 valid points. I liked Bret as part of the Hart Foundation and thought he was a great IC Champ. As World Champ though? Meh….
@@danielmoore411 you’re out of your mind. His storytelling in-ring work are the best

@@mrhyde2250 Warrior got a long with everyone except for a few wrestlers inside the buisness who didn't want him to succeed like Hulk Hogan and Kevin Nash and Tripple H because of their Jelousy and fear of losing their dominance in the buisness.

Warrior hugged Vince too, a day before he died.
The documenterary!
Warrior was 100% correct because Shawn even admitted he was in on the Montreal screw job even though he denied it for so long.
Lol... something tells me that Warrior didn't buy the Montreal Screwjob being a shoot.
I don't know why he didn't. He knows Bret would never agree to be embarrassed in Canada.
Warrior is clued in and it can take years for people to catch up. Initially perceived to be a nut. If he says it's a work then it could have been
@@theragoooverlord5021 naw, Bret would never do that in Canada of all places. He says Canadians consider him a national hero. He takes himself very very seriously.
@@theragoooverlord5021 nah Bret ain't built like that... It's not in his DNA to play games like that.
@@jetla22 The same guy who agreed with HBK to play up their heat to the boys. then supposedly the work became a shoot with HBK (which maybe it was just a work the whole time). The same guy who is a 2nd generation wrestler who's father owned a promotion. A business built on working people. So you don't think he's capable of pulling this as a work?
Even he took the cash grab and hugged Vince. I would have too for the pay day for my family
These guys have phones... and long working relationships... maybe they had a few phone calls... and settled their differences... or its wrestling and everyone is a mark
@@cwp2580 You're right. He is a hypocrite
Bret rightfully buried Warrior in his book by describing how in 1990 Warrior was told by WWF management that there was a cancer ridden little boy and his parents waiting for an autograph backstage near the ramp. Instead of doing the right thing and signing the autograph for the kid he left the kid waiting all night in the arena. Then after wrestling his match he left the arena leaving the kid devastated. Bret said he lost all respect for the Ultimate Warrior that day. Bret went as far as to say as much as he disliked Hulk Hogan on a personal level Hogan was always a class act when it came to meeting with and signing autographs for little kids. For Bret to give Hogan respect shows how bad what Warrior did was.
Yup, too many stories of Hellwig being a big asshole, for it not to have some merit
Karma got him back im talking about ultimate warrior
@@bornfromforeign"karma got him back". Really? He deserved to die for it? That might be a little far.
@@bornfromforeign remove your head from your anus
Bret Hart doesn't have much good to say about anyone to be honest...he's one of the most bitter ex wrestlers around
Not true he just one of those old dudes that don't bite their tounge and his negative comments become the most viewed
@@jetla22 Lol it's 100% true. The biggest mark for himself in the business right next to CM Punk.
While Ultimate Warrior here laughs at the thought of other wrestlers being dead.
@@e2go Can Bret be a Mark when he was the best at his craft? just asking.
You ask Bret a question he gives you a very honest answer. Don’t ask the question you what an answer to and say , oh you are bitter. He is entitled to his opinion. Nobody has been through more shit or was a better technical wrestler then he was. He is allowed his opinion when asked.
Crazy how most of this stuff he's talking about is only 10 years or less from 2006 when this interview took place. He's talking about it like it was 40 years ago.
2005*
Documentererry
They didn’t criticise him for no reason. They didn’t like his bad attitude and lack of skills or the fact he genuinely thought Montreal was a work.
Montreal was, is, and will always be a work
Hes only one of many veterans of the business to be suspicious of Montreal. Bam Bam, Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, Sean Waltman, Tammy Sytch to name a few are on record saying the same.
Doc-ument-er-rur-rary
Big running splash on the floor vs the Stone Cold Stunner, I know what I’m picking
Thoughts on Ho Kogan?
Hahaha...he called him that in promos
Wonder what he thinks of Kevin Nash 🤣🤣 seen a few vids he's going off at him
He hated Nash guts

Warrior says “documenterary.” If that’s how he says it, that’s the effin way to say it.
Warrior has a point… Bret runs his mouth way too much in interviews.
Brett talks forever. What a guy. Yeah he was cool for alot of years but flake off buddy
Bret Hart had no legitimate heat with Ultimate Warrior. Bret gets angry when his ice cream is cold.
I always thought Bret talking shit about the Warrior was bullshit because Davy Boy and Owen both loved Warrior
I still think that the 'Screw Job' was the best kept, smallest circle of ears, longest running, Kayfabe, in wrestling history. Much needed too!!
Everyone was getting Smart.
I miss the Warrior. He was the absolute best. I agree with Warrior I didn't get why Bret hugged Vince...Bret Hart was too much of a follower!
its quite simple, until he got fucked.. both of them had stated that vince and bret were as close as a surrogate father and son. like not close for the show of it.. they were genuinely close
Interesting Warrior talking about the Bret Hart documentary on how the cameras being in the right place at the right time. I always thought that too.
There are certainly theories which point to the Screwjob just being one big work right? To maybe propel Vince’s character and other reasons
If it was, it would further enforce the fact that Bret Hart is the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be.
@@feebypeels2883 🥱
@@danski6694 Little baby tired? Need to be tucked in?
Bret Hart took a shit on Ultimate Warrior no-showing a wish for kids, for a kid that had cancer.
Out of all the things that never happened, this never happened the most
This guy is always LOUD. Does Warrior have a volume setting besides "maximum"?
"He had a grunting style. Which is a style of wrestling where you grunt!" lol wtf are you talking about Warrior
Heavy duty is what he meant. A hardcore worker. Not like slow Andre or fat Adrian Adonis
He is saying anything but the truth is he never imagine Steve Austin will be a big star
Why is warrior hated?
"Documentarary"?
Stu hart stretched hellwig in the dungeon
Because of how scripted pro wrestling became by the 1980's, not one true wrestling fan will ever believe Vince and Bret didn't together plan, "The Montreal Screw Job," as a way to let Bret leave WWE with his head held high as, "The good guy." Never forget Bret received the highest guaranteed salary of any wrestler with his level of talent when he entered the WCW. Without question, Bret was the most popular wrestler when he wrestled in Canada but got little if any reaction from fans in Atlanta, yet had no shame cashing that huge paycheck.
💯.
Warrior graciously put Hogan over at Halloween Havoc in Dubiya Cee Dubya
The way he lost ??!!! you call that a put over .
@@Aizenborgman he put him over clean 1-2-3....
After 7 chair shots, 5 hand grenades, 3 stabbings, 44 bullets from a machine gun and also some flash paper.
I like warrior more than Bret
Bret is, was and always will be bitter...but I love him
He didn’t push it into anyone’s face
It was a shoot!
He liked the Hart's and was smart enough to know the Screwjob is a work that benefited all.
Yeah, it sure benefited the Hart family a whole lot...
Didn't really benefit bret. He had already signed with wcw before the screw job. He'd still get paid the same if it didn't happen
@@cengiztemi8713 which is probably why he went along with it let's be honest. Guaranteed money 💰 to do nothing. If he wanted to stay in WWF and not get paid then he's really a mark for himself. I wonder how much Hunter was getting back then. I'd say he won out there.
@@MrHarco77 that's just what u think. Doesn't mean the screw job was a work
@@MrHarco77 Bret's not a mark, he just cared about the business, something significantly missing in pro wrestling today.
Yup, They all hate vince, say he's a bad dude. Then all is forgotten when they get in the Hall of Fame. Don't know about anyone else, but if my brother was killed during a show, i sure as hell would not be happy about vince making the Show go on. I like Bret, but i lost respect for him for hugging Vince's neck.
Documentararary
An injured Steve Austin was as good as warrior in ring. In his prime he was a technical master.
A blind Austin would be as good as Warrior. Warrior was a dogshit wrestler and a worst human being
the critics about bret hart on warrior was about a sick kid that waiting for the warrior after a show and he never showed up to sign that sick kid or meet them that was critics about bret hart to the the warrior in wwf time when he was huge star there that he had such power on the fans that made money for his family or him self to make wish kind think that he never shwoed at all back then thats why bret hart said that he is no good human been at all !!
The greatest talent ever. 😂
Lol, he sucked
Had no ring skill
@@billysikes1374 😂 what does that mean. You missed that sarcasm,
@@Dewitt-b8n he sucked lol pretty simple
@@billysikes1374 he didn't
Bret didn't pursue litigation because the whole thing was a work.
Its sad that Brett hart hated warrior he bagged him hard even after warriors death
It seems Warrior doesn’t like anyone more than a 6/10, and no one cares for him much either.
Warrior always seemed to be on the defensive.
Rightly so - he had been subjected to unwarranted and unprovoked attack for several years for absolutely no reason, by promoters, fellow wrestlers, and wrestling 'journalists'. You'd (rightly) be defensive too if you were him, particularly around this time.
Lol he sounds incredibly angry all the time like he’s about to snap on you
It really started after Warrior took Vince to court (and won). After that the WWF stooges started talking bad about him, even the newer wrestlers that never met him (all to stay on Vince's good side I guess). The peak was the Self Destruction video. That was pathetic...
@@chrisreidy439 The story in the weekly globe did not exactly paint a very pretty picture of the warrior.
@Chris Reidy yeah he tolerated it for a while but after that DVD the gloves came off. They poked the sleeping bear and Warrior came at all of them.
Everything he said was true. Bret hart should of never made good with Vince.
Bret was not a fan.
The second biggest liar and history revisionist was this guy behind Hulk Hogan.
Says it how it is but I loved him as a kid but didn’t realise how bad of a wrestler he was he only had about 5 moves
He infused the crowd, was like magic.
