Hello Hellwig

In 1999, the Ultimate Warrior departed from WCW as quickly as he got there. And for the last decade he has remained famous by maintaining a sometimes-controversial, sometimes Gary Busey-like website. And form time to time rumors would float around concerning the possible return of the Warrior. On April 19 of this year, the Warrior resurfaced in Spain at a Nu-Wrestling Evolution event to challenge Orlando Jordan to a Heavyweight title match. The date was set for the return, June 25th. During the gap between his confrontation with Jordan and his match, Warrior would appear on a radio show and "challenge" Vince McMahon to a match at Wrestlemania XXV on April 5, 2009. That possibility was dismissed by several sources including Jim Ross. Then, mere days before the bout with Jordan, a "Anti-Warrior" group claimed that if Warrior stepped foot in the ring, they, supposedly 800 strong, would storm the ring. Warrior was not threatened though as he stayed his course. Finally the grand day came and the man that has maybe burnt more bridges than anybody in the business was ready to enjoy life in the squared circle once again. When the music sounded, Warrior appeared and surprisingly was in fairly good shape. Sporting a gray buzzcut, Warrior ran to the ring as always, actually to be truthful, it was more of a jog. He entered the ring and the match was off. About fifteen minutes later, Warrior won the bout with a flying shoulder block. Warrior basked in the glory of being champion again, but he then took the microphone and vacated the title, saying that a tournament would be held to decide the next holder. And that was the end of it. The end of one of the quietest returns in pro wrestling. Nothing has been said on the matter of Warrior's next match, but one thing is for sure, don't expect Jim Hellwig's (Warrior) name inked on a WWE contract anytime soon. Let the craziness continue Jim!
