| The Ultimate Warrior, dies at 54 |
The American Professional Wrestler famously known as The Ultimate Warrior died on Tuesday, three days after he was inducted into the WWF Hall of Fame.
His real name is James Hellwig, born June 16, 1959, Crawfordsville, Indiana, United States, and his career "spanned 13 years, from 1985-98, and included three stints in the then-WWF. His most memorable run came from 1987-91. He came back for short stints in 1992 and 1996"
The report about his death says Warrior collapsed while walking with his wife, Dana, to their car at the Gainy Suites Hotel in Scottsdale, Ariz., at 5:50 p.m. on Tuesday. "The Scottsdale Fire Department transported Hellwig to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead soon after arrival."
It is assumed a catastrophic medical condition caused his death, but investigation is still on.
Ultimate Warrior was extremely muscular, had a long, shaggy hair and a colorful face paint. Hulk Hogan was his greatest professional rival. He also feuded with the then-WWF's biggest star, Randy "Macho Man" Savage. He defeated Hogan at WrestleMania VI to become champion, and was also an ex-Intercontinental champion".
