10 Hilarious Talk Show Appearances By WWE Stars

9. The Ultimate Warrior On The Arsenio Hall Show

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbjNNrO8CeM When The Ultimate Warrior beat Hulk Hogan to win the WWF Championship at WrestleMania VI, he was supposed to take over Hogan's top spot as Hogan stepped into a "champion emeritus" role like Bruno Sammartino held while Bob Backlund was champion. While that's not how it turned out, that was the idea when Warrior appeared on The Arsenio Hall Show to promote WrestleMania. Warrior is 100% in character and it's almost alarming. It's a lot of fun to watch, especially with how Arsenio reacts, but it's almost too much. Especially when he's cuddling up next to Arsenio, snorting, and bellowing lines like "Everything I have is big!" when Arsenio points out Hogan is the physically larger man. He stretches the limits of coherency throughout, at one point exclaiming that "Those who have made small sacrifices call me 'UW.' But those who have made no sacrifices must call me The Ultimate Warrrrioorrrrr." Then something about how his face paint is to communicate with fellow Warriors when they spot each other in outer space. I think. He was ridiculously committed to the character but it was kind of scary. In a good way.
