After 12 Yrs Ultimate Warrior Announces His Return

[Stratusfaction]

The Ultimate Warrior was at the NWE event in Spain this weekend. During the show he announced that he will make his return to the ring on June 25th in Barcelona. Here is an official announcement from his agent:

Staggering news resounded in the NWE Arena during the Madrid show on April 19th. More than 15,000 fans had the chance to see the award presentation which celebrated the career of professional wrestling icon, The Ultimate Warrior; who was in attendance to accept his award. However, controversy erupted during the presentation when NWE Champion Orlando Jordan mocked a young fan of Warrior's at the event. Warrior was quick to come to the defense of this fan which led to a heated conflict between Warrior and Jordan.

On June 25th 2008 in Barcelona, after a 12 year absence from the ring, The Ultimate Warrior will officially make his wrestling comeback in a match against Jordan. The news was confirmed this morning by Warrior's agent, Bernie Gernay in a statement.

"For over 10 years this is what the entire wrestling world has been waiting for, the return of the Warrior. We are excited to bring back the greatest character and energy to ever get into the ring. Ultimate Warrior is an incredible marketing machine and has kept a tremendous value to his name which is why the NWE has stepped up with a substantial deal that worked very well for both sides. There is no disputing that Warrior left a mark on professional wrestling that no other talent did and the reason why still today he is often imitated, but never duplicated."

Over the next few days the NWE will inform fans of the preparations for one of the biggest and most important wrestling events ever to be held in Europe. As the news progresses it is sure to be the headlines of wrestling news and forums throughout the internet and will most certainly have all in the wrestling industry and fans alike in great anticipation to see what the Warrior will deliver on June 25th, and perhaps beyond.

touche'. sad really. I still remember his comments from the Ultimate Warrior DVD, something about the planets alignment. lol

[Burnham]

maybe i am being harsh on warrior, but look at his matches in WCW. they were really poor. so i dont think he would have gotten any better

[NWA AWA 1]

Like I said before, the Warrior has no talent. Sting was the real star to come out of that team. The Warrior won't have the power he used to. Sting improved even more in the ring to make up for his age. It may be even worse than his WCW return, if possible.

can it get worse?

Remeber the oWn, the One Warrior Nation. that was a flop from the start. lol

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, when the Warrior left Wrestling in WCW, he wasn't at his best you could say, lol.

"For over 10 years this is what the entire wrestling world has been waiting for" not sure about this statement? Has the whole Wrestling world really been waiting for this day? Lol.

Anyway, I would love him to prove us wrong and for him to kick ass in TNA! But 10 years later, and now 51 years old? That's tough. I did think he was younger so he'd have a better chance, but he's not.

[DA NEMISIS]

he would make a pretty good manager role, i reckon

[Diabolo]

I'm actually excited to see warrior make his return - I was a fan of his in the 80's and 90's and yeah...I bought the self destruction dvd but I can't shake the memories of arenas becoming unglued when he would tear to the ring and squash guys. He was one of a kind and I'm glad hes coming back.

I try not to! lol

The only good match the warrior had was against brother love. That was his only match I enjoyed, watching him kick the crap out of him .

I'm not really fussed about Warrior's return to the ring. I saw a video of him training in the gym for his return and it appears he wants people to think that he is still as strong and in physical condition that he was 12 years ago yet you should see him strain lifting the weights lol.

Don't get me wrong though, he is still in good condition for his age

i saw that same footage.

made me feel sick, just all veins. YUK
