Thank you Steve for putting this up. Warrior was always honest with what was on his mind, and most importantly he was honest, I miss him, but thankfully we have so much material to look back on and it is inspiring me all the time, R.I.P Warrior.
I am in tears .... I miss the guy never met him yet he has had such a huge impact in my life. Thanks Steve for posting🙏🏼💪🏼
That was filmed in Warrior's Barn for anyone wondering. Warrior had a home gym as well his his local Anytime Fitness. Our best conversations were from that barn, 4am LOL!
Which part of Arizona was he living in? I'm in Maricopa, was he in Scottsdale? This man has helped me so much and was a major inspiration, it hurts me that I never got to meet him.
@@deepblue8143 He lived in New Mexico. Near Santa Fe.
@@Velasca He lived in Scottsdale, AZ.
@@foreverred105 He used to. The house where he lived for many years and where this video was filmed is in Nambe, New Mexico, not far from Santa Fe.
@@Velasca I didn't know that. I read that he lived in a area called Paradise Valley in Scottsdale.
I like the fact that he is apparently recording this during a thunderstorm.
I’ve never seen Warrior so calm and down to earth. Fantastic video.
Look up Warrior's Injections of Inspiration videos on youtube. There's one called "classic"; which is also pretty laid back.
Dang. It me hard when he said there is no guarantee that he won't get a heart attack.
WARRIOR MAY HAVE PASSED, BUT HE COMES TO LIFE WHEN WE PRESS PLAY! RIP
For some reason hearing the storm raging in the background seems very fitting here.
If people only new , RIP WARRIOR
people need to spend about an hour a day meditating and reflecting on what they've done with theirselves and what they've done to others and how they've conducted theirselves. if you'll do that you'll begin to unlock who you really are and what you really are and what it means and what you want to do.
Wow, thank you sir!
Warrior has his guard down here.......very rare to see.
I wish I knew about this page and "Warrior University" back when he was alive. 😞
Thank you so much for releasing these videos! Warrior became my life mentor a long time ago. I carry him in my actions and my heart always. I was a subscriber and a "start" member and would've stuck with him no matter what. This planet could use some UW right now.
I moved to Albuquerque for school in 2013 and I knew Warrior lived near Santa Fe. I hoped run to meet him, but he passed
So sad losing warrior. He seemed fit and healthy
You think so? Watch his wrestling match in Spain 2008 against Orlando Jordan. He looked terrible he was out of breath the whole time and could barely move.
And when he was inducted into the hall of fame. He looked half dead and died shortly after. He really hurt his body from all the steroids.
@@mywalletisonyourmomsnighst1677 to be fair he was much older and while he trained himself physically for that match he didn't work on his cardio plus he injured his leg as you see when he entered the ring he was limping but even still it was a good match for someone his age and he took some sick bumps for his age in that match and was longer than his usual squash matches. He wanted to give fans something special and did his best
He was in really good shape around 2010-2013 or so. You could visually see right before he died that something had gone badly wrong with his health in a very short period of time. From looking at him on Raw the day before he died, I would go as far as saying it looked likely that he had already begun some major heart-related issue and was already suffering whilst he was at the show. I think the family knew that he was seriously unwell but kept it private, as was their absolute right.
@@fuzzluvver69 You really have to wonder if he knew something was wrong for quite some time and he (perhaps) reached out to Vince and said "If you want to induct me, you better do it now because I dont have much time".
Thank you so much Steve for releasing this... Such profound words as always but I did have to pause it a few times.., 💔 He is so right on many aspects. Please release more when you can as I will #alwaysbelieve... I am sure he reunited with his friend.. 🙏🏻💙
Kathy Pickett nice to see you here x
Legendary Unknown of course.., my heartfelt thanks to you for keeping his legacy and words always alive as I do the same. 💖💪🏻
Woah! Hard to watch this beginning. Incredibly cool also. Thank you Steve!!!
Man I love how he himself was as big of a fan of the character as we are haha.
The one thing he fails to understand is he asked people for money in exchange for videos and correspondence. He failed to deliver, so paying customers deserve an explanation as to why they're not getting what they paid for. Outside of that, I'm glad he gave people what they paid for the following month.
There was a rumour at the time he was in hospital
I agree.
But he took on alot of stress....it's tough running a gym etc
I didn't to understand. What do you think this video was about?
1,000% spot on!
Yeah that was the issue at the time. Taking a step aside is cool and untestable but you can’t take peoples money and be a ghost for that time and then act like they had an unrealistic expectation. Because had he simply immediately came out and told his customers that he was pausing things and not taking their money due to unforeseen circumstances and would resume once he could provide what he’d promised I doubt anybody would’ve been upset with that. The way he didn’t seem to consider that would’ve been problematic.
I remember considering paying for a premium sub for this content on the site. Then all of a sudden...crickets. Thanks for the inside story.
What was his website and social media like back then ?
I have only stumbled upon a few of the very rare amount left on UA-cam.
Wish I was following him when he was still alive.
Im Australian and once he stopped wrestling I never heard anything about him ever again. Until recently .
@@pj006marsden same (but UK)
@@pj006marsden There honestly wasn't much outside of the Injection videos on here. The Warrior U website started out good but went silent out of nowhere for a bit, then he popped back up with this video.
The rumor around the time of all this was Warrior was in the Hospital for undisclosed issues for a period of time.
if you have other Warrior videos (interviews and speechs), that would be cool, thank you!
To irritate him was not a good feeling, he expected you to act accordingly. But he also was always was constantly testing you honesty, loyalty. Guy lived on four hours sleep a day.
We did our best work in the late hours of the night :)
@@LegendaryUnknown whoa!!! TMI lol r u the redhead? Like Homer Simpson over a box of donuts for redheads hard to type that sound he makes I believe there is some drool involved.
@@LegendaryUnknown I'm sorry I thought this was some redhead that posted somyabout him , then I read who I was responding to. .I am sorry that we didn't get to do the trip planned for September, guess it wasn't meant to be. I just gave Brianna the box of things I had left. I had lost more things than I was able to save. People would just take whatever they wanted I would of given to . Pi tires , shirt's, all things that he had sent me. Jeff has purchased a lot of things over the years. One thing I was always curious of, besides seeing thrvMontoyas in video, did he ever get back around that guy I called Chico think his name was Orlando in Sante Fe
@@jayhellwig340 Hi Jay - are you Jim’s brother?
The warrior was cool with his look and character..and macho
Thanks for sharing
I actually thought this was gonna be about the Warrior University wrestling school from 1996.
"Wrestling School" would be an oxymoron!!! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Is that not what hes talking about here?
@@billblaski9523 no, he's talking about a subscriber service where people got a certain number of videos each month on the internet. This was sometime in the late 2000s/early 2010s.
Great video. Watch this to the end. Its worth it.
I never knew him as a wrestler until just recently. Only heard of his name before. However, it be REALLY enjoyed watching so many of his videos and the documentary of him. He was definitely an intense dude, but love his message.
Another awesome moving post, I remember seeing the video where he was talking about Mr resistance and thinking how right he was. Thanks for posting Steve. Do you or any one have his list of recommended books to read. Thank you in advance for any help!
I'd love to know that list as well. Miss you Warrior Man
He likes Hero Of A Thousand Faces by Joseph Campbell
Mr. Ugly was there.
Yes that's what I ment to say, corrected in post. Thanks
Good video of warrior thank you Steve for the upload.
He's right at least be a leader for yourself.
Thanks guys. Please share, subscribe
This is why you have to respect Warrior. What a thoughtful and honest man he was and I'm so sick of the internet trope of bashing him. Whether you agree with everything he has said or done in the past, who else in the wrestling business ever had this much honesty, intelligence and integrity. I wish Jim was still in the world with his family.

Very haunting video
Hopefully videos of Jim Hellwig never disappear. The videos this man appears in need to be public and circulated forever.

Who was his friend? Randy Savage?
Who is he talking about in this video?
He was a real hard worker.
@Alex Gemi just a grunty style.
And he was interested to get involved
Next thing, Linda stepped in.
Michael Carke Duncan?
He made a commitment and he dropped the ball wasn't the first time nor the last
Didn't drop the ball. The word that leaked out at the time was he was in the Hospital for a period during this time hence why he wasn't making posts.
Thanks to Warrior man for exposing Roid Hogan as a scumbag and a stool pigeon
Who’s the guy he’s talking about??
Darren Eddie he never said
Randy Savage?
I think its a musician. Seems its someone who made good money in his younger years, and could no longer continue to do so.
@@danski6694 doesnt sound like it. Randy was making music & appearing in movies, unlike the guy who he is talking about who refused to move on from what made him money originally.
Doug Furnas, I think.
Warrior University, to be accepted: Bench 250 lbs and have a 6 pack
Most importantly, have 20 bucks
Who’s he talking about?
I think Doug Furnas
I wonder who this celebrity friend he is referring to?
Must be a bodybuilder
I think Randy Savage
@@danski6694 Savage died in 2011. This was recorded in 2012 or 2013.
@@GETole Oh ok. Thanks
Who do you think it was?
@@danski6694 No clue.
I didn't always agree with his politics, but I miss his passion and his common sense.
AlbertonBeastmaster I miss him too bud
Same here, I didn't always agree with him politically, but always respected him and do miss him, BIG TIME! He's simply the best.
I agree with his politics too. lol
You said you miss his passion and common sense. But that you didn’t agree with his politics. His common sense was the bedrock of his political views. I completely agreed with his politics, but more importantly, I shared his passion for the greatness of what our country is supposed to be as envisioned by our founding fathers. And for the passion of traditions and hard work that made our country. As well as the sacrifice our founders endured to free the people of tyranny. Yep. Common sense and intensity fueled everything about him including his political views.
@@AmericanThunder My man 🤝👍
Warrior, was typically, everything he claimed others to be. He was the only perfect man in the history of the business. He was never shy about trashing others in the business both dead and alive.
Look up “narcissist” and you’ll see Warrior’s face.
Look up dumbass and you'll see a reflection looking back at you.
The gay community is so hateful
That's bs he left WWF because he didn't need the money. He was fired for holding up Vince for money threatening to no show. Then fired again for no showing up. Also it's ridiculous he would have a wrestling school, he only knew a handful of moves. He wasn't hired for his great wrestling skills, he was hired because of the body he had from steroids. The Anabolic Warrior.
Ah! I see you've been reading your Smark Bible every night at bedtime. Good boy. 👍
The absolute state of your post.
@@fuzzluvver69 😂😂😂
Well said, friend. 🤝
Clown.
Tell us you have zero fucking clue what you're talking about, without telling us you have zero fucking clue what you're talking about.
Anybody know who his friend was?
