As a kid, I idolized these characters, never thinking about what kind of people they were in real life.

I met Warrior around 2005 at a Sports/Manga convention in London. Not many wrestling fans there so meeting the few wrestlers that were there was easy. Warrior was lovely to me, easy to chat with and very friendly.

The Warrior rolling blunts is a visual I can't get my mind around

To The Host, I like the way you interview Nash without interrupting him and he can tell his story I do appreciate this!

Met warrior as a kid. He was in a cab with his opponent Hercules Hernandez. He came out of the car and took a picture. He was kind.

The Warrior's characters was a phenom. The energy, the charisma, it was all 10/10.... His wrestling ability was subpar, but by the time the warrior starting shaking the ropes he had the crowd in the palm of his hand

"He's got a blazer... put-Jimmy-Hart-to-shame airbrushed.." 😂😂😂

Wrestling is petty af behind the scenes.

"I'm not gonna call him warrior I'ma call him Jim" *proceeds to call him warrior IMMEDIATELY AFTER* 🤣🤣

I was at wrestlemania 30 and got to see warrior. When he was in the ring the next night on raw, you could see during his exit that he was breathing heavily. I don't think anyone realized how serious it was and then he was gone. RIP to the Ultimate Warrior.

It's a shame Warrior passed on at a relatively younger age🙁 I was shocked when I heard about it. R.I.P. 😇

I was there for Warrior's induction into HOF, he was taking a lot of pauses in his speech and looking very exhausted, you could tell something was off. RIP Warrior

SO glad Sean Oliver’s on at least ONE of these wrestling pods. Done with this Save with Conrad shit.

I'm starting to feel like Nash is adding a lot to these stories to make them more interesting.

The ultimate warrior a super-star legend, nothing will change it.

Kevin is honestly a great guy. I met him back in 2002. As soon as I told him I had watched him since the Diesel days, he said it was like talking to an old friend. I saw him again in 2017 for Big Time Wrestling. Still cool.

As a child Warrior is the reason I got into wrestling. He was a super hero come to life. I stopped watching wrestling from 1991 until 1996. NWO/Austin are they reasons I started watching again. Both Nash and Warrior have a special place in my wrestling fandom. I don’t pay attention to who they were in real life because I don’t know them. I know the characters they were in Wrestling. So stuff like this I normally don’t watch or listen to, but I love listening to Nash tell stories. I don’t take a side that’s their shit. But it was interesting to listen to.

Nash was never half the draw that Warrior was.

RIP Warrior. And Godbless the Warrior Family.

Warrior will FOREVER hold a very special place in my heart. As a young boy I admired him so much. Watching him on TV brought me so much joy and helped me to escape all of the unhappiness and fear I had gone through as an adolescent growing up in a broken home. He was a a real life superhero and one my favourite wrestlers of all time.

I’ve always liked the Ultimate Warrior. Always will.

I still have that Warrior comic book from 95/96. Warrior was the man.

Finally a real interview about Warrior. Not just burying him to go along with everyone else. Also hard to picture Warrior delicately and lovingly rolling two awesome blunts 😂

Showing an old video to Nash to rile him up. Classy.

Amazing Pod cast! Thank you for sharing these great stories 90s/00s wrestling 4 Ever!!

That letter had to have been pure gold. I would assume it was handwritten in all caps because of course that's how the Warrior writes a letter. Probably told you that you've achieved "Destrucity".

DANG Nash was the first recipient of the Warrior Award and he got it hand written by the Warrior himself! 🤣🤣👌👌

Really enjoy listening to Nash shoot on his experiences and career. Liked him from when he first started out in the WWF as Diesel with HBK. Followed him ever since.

Man Warrior as a kid in school was alot of us kids hero!!

Nash’s voice is so therapeutic, I feel like I’m talking chillin on the couch on Christmas talking to my dad

The Garvin stomp was legendary!

As much as I like Nash, Warrior wasnt lying.

It was Scott Hall being inducted the same class as Warrior. Jake the Snake, Lita, Carlos Colon, Paul Bearer, and Mr. T made up the entire class of inductees in 2014.

I’ve wondered about the weird back and forth fight challenge for years, god it felt good to have that scratch itched…..god I love these stories.

Funniest of all, Vince McMahon already had the Diesel vs Warrior match scheduled for the April 29th Monday Night Raw. Isaac Yankum replaced him.

It's always interesting to hear various wrestlers' memories of Ultimate Warrior -- both the good and the bad. Warrior was one of those guys, that if you knew him, you either liked him or you hated him. None of Warrior's contemporaries have a neutral opinion of him. Warrior was a multifaceted individual. He got along very well with a few other wrestlers, but he pissed off at least 20 of the guys that he worked with -- both in the ring and in the back office of Titan Towers.

A narcissist is the hero or victim of every story they tell.

Dude, the fact that Kev has a Bronco he had back almost 30 years ago, is impressive. You'd think he would've gotten rid of it during his WCW days.

Hearing that warrior gave Nash a letter of approval and attach with to very nice blunts make warrior the best wrestler ever

First time watching a Kevin Nash podcast clip. Got a new listener 👍

The only person who said anything good about Warrior that was completely positive was Kamala. He mentioned the Warrior gave him rides in his Limo and that Kamala should be treated and paid better by the WWF.

These segments are so gold lol

RVD uploaded some videos of him and the Warrior chatting. He seemed like a good dude.

My respect for taker keeps growing he really did give us everything he had.

I love the painting behind Nash. It's amazingly beautiful.

Warrior is right about the kliq

It is funny how Nash tries to act like Shawn Michaels and the rest of the "Kliq" didn't try to get guys fired and or buried by the company. High level guys including Bret Hart, Bam Bam Bigelow, The Road Warriors, Vader ect talked about how the Kliq would bury you if they didn't like you.

I remember the shoot-fight tweet. Warrior took it WAY too seriously 😂

For once i agree with Warrior

“I’m sorry, I’m not gonna call him Warrior. Im gonna call him Jim” 😂

I remember those Warrior comic books. I had a few but lost them unfortunately. They were pretty awesome.

Nash the warrior was a good man! End of story. He helped make wrestling what it is today! Without him and a handful of others, wrestling would not be what it is today

Kev, you’re still driving that friggin Bronco?! 🤣🤣 God bless ya man, lol. I’m 41 and been through 14 vehicles.

Warrior didn’t lie.

Rip. Dude was a super man to me when i was a kid

He challenged him to an MMA fight which Warrior had never trained. So yeah, I’d want to train for it

Nobody can deny the fact that Dingo was a unique individual .

Aww man, this is great! Instantly subscribed

Top Tier content right here! Keep this up!

Kevin Nash is never wrong he is always right

Nash was cool but he was also a Snake in the background.

at least he got 2 nice blunts.. great insight.. we fans always love some good Warrior anecdotes

Nash is one of the realest wrestlers outhere coming from that rough time in WWF

"What were your thoughts on Warrior?" Nash: *tears quad*

Love listening to Nash tell old stories. He totally comes across as a dude that could get along with virtually anyone and be a hellova fun guy to be sitting in a bar chattin with.

Nwo tumbler!! Love it!!!

I could listen to these guys talk all day lol it’s more entertaining than watching WWE and AEW

It’s so good for wrestling for people like Kevin, who owe nothing to anyone and who have forgotten more about wrestling than most of the marks inside the ropes these days have ever learned, to become audio/video personalities that wrestling fans can listen to and rally behind. People who don’t have an agenda when it comes to current wrestling, and call it as they see it. Fucking thrilled about this podcast, man. It’s like a dream come true. Thanks, Sean and Kev. Edit: Sean becoming an honorary member of the Kliq is just the best.

People give Warrior alot of shit for being different because he was a bit more worried about his own career than to be buddy buddy with everyone. And they don't realize how long Warrior was actually in wrestling. He was from the early early 80s teamed up with Sting and they had like 3 different gimics as partners. He put over alot of good wrestlers from back then. He paid his dues and he deserved much more then he got when it was finally his time to shine. And alot of people act like he was only around from like 89 to the late 90s. Kevin was right in the beginning Warrior was fucking huge. He was like 6'2" or 3" and like 270lbs rock solid. The guy really worked his ass off to get to where he finally was in the early 90s. And he deserves more respect. So what the guy didn't kiss ass to Kevin or Scott or Hulk and guys like that, he fucking shouldn't have had to, he worked just as hard if not harder then most those guys. The guy deep down was respectful, had a good heart, loved his fans always made time to talk and take pictures with them. Then his motivational KZfaq videos were golden. He spoke about going out and getting what you really deserved in life and not letting anything hold you back. He was huge on physical fitness and working hard in the gym. Taking care of your family and the people you love. And just really leaving your mark in this crazy fucking world. And those videos you got to see Jim Helwig the real person not just the gimic. So for anyone that thinks you need to talk shit about people who are a little distant and working on themselves thats bullshit, we dont get alot of time. And Warrior knew that more than most. And he did what he thought was right for him and his own. So nothing but respect to the guy. I still listen to his motivational stints on KZfaq when I need yo turn it up and get my day going. The guy was alot smarter then most people think. Just my opinion. RIP Warrior 🙏

I have mixed feelings on Nash. Sometimes I think he’s a trash human being but then sometimes I think he’s just being cool. He wasn’t the best wrestler but he had a presence and really set things off with the NWO. He deserves to be in the Hall of Fame and so does Warrior of course. Both were awesome wrestlers and that’s really all that matters.

A real-life fight between Warrior and Nash would have been a rather interesting thing to watch actually!

I was taken aback on seeing footage of Dingo Warrior. Back then Jim was obviously on an enhanced regimen of gear with the trappings of a Dorian Yates.

Don't try and act like you don't know what warrior was pissed about. Warrior will always be a legend and nomatter how much people badmouth him he will always be one of the biggest stars.

Nash is and will always be one of the most coolest mo’fo ever🤘🏾🤘🏾🫡

Great story. Great questions asked. I really appreciate the genuineness from his story telling. Having said that, what's up with the head bobbling/movement at 1:16 min in. It's pretty distributing and we can all guess why this is happening. God bless you Kevin, may you jacknife your way to a healthier you if that is.

Cam confirm the warriors blazer. Saw it driving around Espanola, New Mexico in the early 00's

Kevin always has been intelligent, observant, and cooler and real than alot of the boys, and he always tells the best stories about the road..Big Kev is just sharing all of his experiences of his incredible life and career in pro wrestling!!😎🙂👏👏👏👏

Scott Hall said everybody hated them but they wanted to wrestle them because the klique always made everybody look good

Class act. most people attack someone when they are gone. Very good on your character.

Been waiting for this

Say and think what you want about Warrior but he’s a legend. RIP ULTIMATE WARRIOR

This podcast is incredible

We love you Kevin.

My quad exploded just watching this

I'm glad they mentioned the summer of 92. Nothing Kevin should be ashamed of.

Nash brings up a great point that nobody was complaining about the Clique members' match quality with the possible exception of Nash himself, but even then he was typically booked against other Clique members, Bret, Taker, etc so the matches were still strong.

As a child in the Golden era I always have liked UW. I as a teenager really dig H & N, but more importantly now I just enjoy wrestling. One of the cool things we have is friendship and love but most important is love. Great seein Nash hangin in there

His warrior impression is spot on

A lot of the negative stuff about the Klic, is probably because Ultimate warrior was good friends with DYnamite Kid and Bull Dog and that group, and they were a competing group back stage. Good to see a more considered account by Nash of Warrior, without rushing to say the first thing comes to his head, and instead taking a moment to give a thoughtful response.

Love the Kliq but warrior got a point

I remember seeing worrier on tv me and friend was watching wwf seeing him on TV I told my friend that he didn't look good at all he was shaking me and my friend knew something wasn't right and then two days later the worrier had died rest in peace to the worrier

Is it a coincidence that The Ultimate Warrior had tassels on his arms .. and then you couldn't see a kid's bike for years without them on their handle bars? I think not. Legend.

Nash interviews are great! Shoutouts to Oliver for doing great interviews

Warrior is a little out they. But, intelligent as well. Some like him. Others, bury him. I like Warrior gimmick. He really work hard. R.I.P Warrior.

I never got the idea that Warrior had a PERSONAL grudge about the other people, but he didn't like characters that crapped all over other characters that fans really loved. Warrior seemed very loyal to the fans and the characters that the wrestlers created. He seemed to be passionate about the drama and characters and showmanship for the entertainment of it all. I REALLY respect that! Too many of these guys are sooo obsessed with the money and camera time and business end that they crap on us fans for that stuff. And some times they lose their fans because of that.

Crazy how fast this podcast has grown.

Warrior would have torn Kevin's quads in a shoot

He said in the past he refused to put over Warrior because “He wasn’t in the trenches”.

I used to have the first issue of the Warrior Comic and it was pretty well drawn. And it was Razor Ramon (Scott Hall) being inducted into the Hall of Fame with Warrior.

Both were good Superstars 👍 👌.
