Hellwig’s death on Tuesday evening was unexpected, considering he had just appeared on WWE’s “Monday Night Raw” on April 7, and was inducted into the company’s Hall of Fame two days earlier on April 5, in New Orleans. “WrestleMania 30,” during which he also made an appearance, took place April 6, from inside New Orleans’ Mercedes-Benz Superdome. Hellwig legally changed his name to Warrior in 1993.The cause of Warrior’s death has not yet been disclosed, although TMZ reported Warrior was pronounced dead at an Arizona hospital after collapsing outside a hotel on Tuesday.
Warrior’s final public appearance on TV Monday night (watch above) would prove a chilling farewell as he said, “No WWE talent becomes a legend on their own. Every man’s heart one day beats its final beat, his lungs breathe their final breath … his essence, his spirit will be immortalized by the storytellers, by the loyalty, by the memory of those who honor him and make what the man did live forever,” before thanking the crowd in attendance, his fans.
News of his death was first announced by Paul Levesque, WWE’s executive VP, talent, live events and creative, and otherwise known as professional wrestler Triple H.
