Ultimate Warrior: Always Believe DVD Review - 5 Things That Ruled And 5 That Sucked

And 5 That Sucked...

5. A Total 180

Okay, so Always Believe doesn't try to claim that the Warrior was a perfect employee or human being. It talks about his no-showing, his dubious business decisions and his HGH use. But even then, those are often sugarcoated with comments along the lines of 'Warrior had his reasons' or even Warrior's own personal defence. The DVD, in the main, is a glowing portrait of Warrior: wrestler, family man and inspirational leader. Is this really the same man that WWE spitefully dedicating an entire DVD to burying in 2005? The Self-Destruction of the Ultimate Warrior is mentioned a lot, and Warrior clearly wasn't happy about his portrayal on it. So it's believable that some concessions were made and that Warrior and his family were given some sort of creative/editorial control. After a while, the glowing endorsements of Warrior (by some who buried him on Self-Destruction) get a little tiresome. Warrior was not perfect and, while it would be tasteless to bash the dead, more honesty would have been appreciated. It's almost like they saw The Self-Destruction of the Ultimate Warrior again and decided to do the exact opposite. Was he an egomaniacal, limited worker who was only in the business for himself or an iconic superstar, capable of classic matchesAfter examining both, you will probably come to the conclusion that Warrior was at least somewhere in the middle.
