5. He No Sold Triple H's Pedigree And Beat Him In Under 2 Minutes At WrestleMania 12
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XzzmvDuswHc When the Ultimate Warrior returned to WWE in 1996 for WrestleMania 12 it was seen as a big deal because WWE was really lacking in terms of star power at that point. Guys like Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart and Undertaker were all big names in their own right, but none of them were that huge in terms of being a draw. Warrior was a guy that did pretty well on top five years earlier, so the thinking was a Warrior return would be great. He was in his mid 30s at that point, so he was still capable of performing at a high level. Most fans remember his win at WrestleMania 12 because it was a squash victory over Triple H in under two minutes. Remember when he kicked out of the Pedigree? Few people have done that ever, even when Hunter was on the rise. Hunter was a future main event star, but they booked Warrior over him strongly because they wanted fans to get behind him the way they did when Warrior was on top six years earlier. What about the rest of his WWE run in 1996? It was uneventful and short lived. After brief feuds with Goldust and Jerry Lawler, he was out of the company by July due to a contract dispute with Vince McMahon. His
last match on Raw aired on July 8, 1996 against Owen Hart. His comeback drew a lot of attention just like anything he did, but it ended almost as quickly as his famous run down the entrance ramp.
