One of the WWE sport’s icons, The Ultimate Warrior, had died at the age of 54, just a day after making a national-TV appearance in which he spoke of life and death and said, “the spirit of the Ultimate Warrior will live forever.”
His Hall of Fame induction was last Saturday and he appeared the next night at WrestleMania 30. On Monday night, Warrior, wearing a mask and a long jacket with his image on the back, addressed fans during the weekly USA Network show, “Monday Night Raw.”
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.
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. The cause of death is not known at this time.
