Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted April 18, 2014 Paid Members Posted April 18, 2014 The Ultimate Warrior documentary was incredible. Just fantastic. Seek it out NOW! They nailed it. They talked about everything. Everyone worth being a talking head they got (Sting, Dutch Mantell, Lawler, Hogan, Vince). They showed footage of Hogan and Warrior making friends, showed The Ultimate Puke chatting to Sgt Slaughter, he had a chat with Scott Hall, Vince cries about a book Warrior gives him, THEY PLAY FOOTAGE OF OLD MERCH!!! and shows then following Warrior all around from his visit to Titan Towers to the Hall of Fame and at Raw. They talk about it all. GHB firings, depositions (even showed footage of Hogan's deposition!), the Self Destruction DVD. Seems like nothing is off limits. Â Best thing on it was the Titan Towers office HHH was in. They have all the old WWF/WWE belts shadow boxed on the wall. There's just so many bits on it that make you excited watching it. Well worth a look. Seriously, one of the best documentaries they've ever done. Loved it. Glad to see him looking so happy in his last days. Â Discuss it.
alanchiz Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Completely agree. Just finished watching it a couple of hours ago, and a lot of the footage is incredible. They obviously had cameras wandering around backstage all the time at WMXXX. Â I particularly enjoyed the discussions about the 'Self Destruction' DVD
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted April 18, 2014 Paid Members Posted April 18, 2014 what was this exactly? they put this together since his death?
Kamaras-Tash Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Never realised they'd made a new doc, just had a quick search online and is this the one what runs for 58 minutes? Â Seen a couple of different uploads and one has part 1 so not sure if the 58 minute one is the full thing
alanchiz Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 what was this exactly? they put this together since his death? Â Yes, its a little documentary on the network as part of 'Warrior Week' Lots of footage from him in the run up to Wrestlemania and the weekend itself, and plenty of talking heads filmed since his death - Good ones too. Also uses some bits of his interview from the DVD that just came out

KillerTwist Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Got a little bit teary eyed there towards the end, especially when Triple H started.
Joey Joe Joe Jr Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Just watching this now. One of the best pieces they've put together. Its my first day with the network and this has sealed it for me. Â Couldn't believe some of the footage like Hogan's deposition stuff.
Ladiesman345 Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 The thing has always put me off WWE documentaries is the utter needles music they play over top of everything. Generic stock music all over the place.
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted April 18, 2014 Paid Members Posted April 18, 2014 Incredible stuff. I don't think I've ever teared up during a WWE documentary before, but this did it. The last 15 minutes are heartbreaking, from watching clips of his HOF speech with his daughters (I've avoided it because it's genuinely upsetting), to Vince and Triple H welling up a number of times while talking about their time with Warrior, to Hogan and the Warrior man making up. As Ian stated, he seemed at peace with his life and was excited with what was coming up in the future. Â From a production stand point, I want more of this cool backstage stuff on the Network.
SteelEdge Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 I'm pissed cos my Network doesn't seem to be playing anything the last 2-3 days and I really wanna watch this. Even more so with all the awesome comments I'm reading here. Can't even find it elsewhere to watch
sivy Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Just watched it, the last 15 mins are quite hard to watch. With Triple H and Vince still clearly haven't come to terms with it all.
LWOLeN Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Does anyone know what was wrong with Warrior physically (apart from his heart)? They way he walks and stands in his last days, made me surprised he was ONLY 54. Â His body seemed to be completely gone. I was shocked to realise even Scott Hall looked way healthier in that backstage shot. Â What happened? Â He didn't look so detoriated in his last match in 2008:
METAL ON METAL Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Truly an amazing watch and a fantastically put together piece in a short period of time, not ashamed to say I teared up a few times. Â It was great seeing how happy and content he was in the final days of his life, especially the closure and gestures towards Vince. Absolutely heartbreaking the footage of him with his daughters.
The King Of Swing Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Hard to watch at times but a great documentary.
