Maybe a year and a half at most.

Did our expert news media conclude that it wasn't "good" health issues that killed him?

They both did very well for themselves and became very successful.

Yes.
Apparently, heart disease ran in his Dad's side of the family.

It looks like Nancy Grace was the first to the punch. My buddy told me today that she had DDP on the other night and it was basically a bash on "evil hormones."

Nancy Grace.. fat alcoholic bitch / attention whore..
Will do anything for ratings.. tell lies.. how Owen Hart died.. spineless bitch..

Watched his HOF speech and watching Raw on Hulu...his whole phrase of last breath and living on...makes you wonder if he knew his days were up...kind of eerie

Just finished watching the 4 part series of the warrior on the network ..

Two years ago, he was a piece of shit according to WWE.
Two years ago, he and Hogan were sworn enemies.
Two years ago, he would never have anything to do with the "evil Titan Empire."

Then, he signed on the dotted line once again and everything's okay.
Now he's dead, and they glorify him even more!

I don't fault Jim or the Fed for making a mutually beneficial business deal. In fact, I respect UW for setting aside his stubbornness for the sake of his family.
But, this is a perfect example of how phony and full of shit all of these guys are.

You might find faults with Warrior, as within anyone, but being "full of shit" is not one of his. He's brutally honest.

Warrior claimed that WWE wanted to put him in hall in 2010, at WrestleMania 26, which happened in Phoenix (Warrior's home).

Warrior said "No", because he was still miffed about the "Self-Destruction.." DVD. He said WWE had to "tell the right story" and that WWE wouldn't have brought him in three times, if he were the jerk that DVD said he was (Vince said he forgave Helwig for SummerSlam '91 and rehired him in '92; He brought him back in '96 because "it was the right thing to do for our audience; he still had some juice, still had 'it' in terms of charisma, still could sell tickets".)

We could also say that he wouldn't have left three times if he wasn't a jerk.

I stand by my claim that both Vince AND Hellwig are/were full of shit... the same way Bret is full of shit, SBG is full of shit, Piper is full of shit, Bruno is full of (a lot of) shit, and so on.

That doesn't minimize their accomplishments in the business. It's only to say that, at at least one point, everybody above was full of shit when saying they would never do business with Vince again.

Dibiase gushed about that on the DVD, "The one thing that's simply amazing about Vince McMahon is his ability to give someone a second chance."

I think if you listen to what Warrior and Triple H have stated on the reason why now all of a sudden the feuds are forgotten and the character's legacy finally realized makes sense.

both stated that people grow and the business grew.

all the backstage bullshit doesn't change the fact that the UW character was a legend and should be recognized as such. more popular than Hogan for a good year and a bit. not many people can say that. like it or not he connected with the fans. ask 100 people on the street who the UW is and all will know. Ask the same 100 who John Cena is and most will say 'who?" lol

I think UW gets a lot of flack from people on the net who weren't even alive when he was big. that rude carried him all the time. etc. bullshit. it takes TWO to have a good match. that pisses me off LOL.

its as bad as having Jim Ross comment on Warrior's time in the WWE when he had nothing to do with the WWE in 1988-90 lol

I don't buy that about everyone.

Bruno told close friends & family that he purposely asked for WAY more money than he ever thought he'd get to do the HOF. The old man met his price, he went in - it was all about the money for Bruno, and despite his claims to the contrary, BRUNO SOLD OUT.
Again, I have no problem with that. In fact, I'm happy for Bruno and glad he got his asking price. But, don't bullshit everyone by saying you didn't do it for the money. He ought to be proud that he soaked Vince!

Billy Graham? How can you buy any sincerity on his part when he's had more fallings-out with Vince than Flair's had divorces? Graham will piss and moan about the McMahon's to anyone who'll listen until he needs another kidney or surgery; then he finds it in his heart to make peace.

I don't care how much they and/or the business has grown; they're FULL...OF...SHIT!!!

I seen in one of Hellwig's shoot videos where he made the comment along the lines of "I stopped using steroids once they became illegal"?

I wish I could remember the video and post it but maybe someone else seen it as well.

What do y'all think?

He definitely lost alot of size post WWF scandal. We've seen antidotes on here from posters attesting to his crazy passion and commitment towards the bodybuilding type lifestyle plus he does try to at least present himself as following some level of moral code.

It almost seems like he was really big and juiced up from the old Freedom Fighters days to pre-Scandal WWF. Lost a good amount of size after the scandal, wrestled for a few more years then seemed to really slim down even more when we see the pics of him retired and with the long hair while doing his whole "Conservative guy touring the country/giving speeches bit"

Then it looks like he bulked right back up again and his face began to take on that reddish type look.

Maybe he really was clean all those years and jumped on the HRT wagon towards the end?

I'm probably being completely naive even in thinking it but it just crossed my mind.
