James Brian Hellwig AKA The Ultimate Warrior – Died at 54
James Hellwig was most famous as The Ultimate Warrior although he had also used the ring names The Warrior and Dingo Warrior. After quitting professional wrestling in 1998, James pursued a different type of career – public speaking. He only returned to wrestle one more time in Spain in 2008 where he won that match. Years before he died, there were many rumors about his possible death. When he returned to the WWE he looked completely different so people had believed he was someone else; they presumed that James died of liver failure, aggravated by steroid abuse. Warrior did indeed die in April 2014, three days after he was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.
