Ultimate Warrior: The Controversial UCONN Speech - April 5, 2005

- Jim "Warrior" Hellwig delivers a 2005 speech the WWE doesn't want you to see. Hellwig is confronted on several different occasions by UCONN's liberal group, "Tent City", based on his homophobic slurs and outlandish thoughts, and things certainly get interesting. The speech has been largely forgotten and swept under the rug thanks to the WWE, but we bring it back for you to judge for yourself...
A lot of things have changed over the years...who knows what this speech would look like in 2017.
All you can say is Donald Trump would be proud....

This blows every WWE promo he ever did out of the water
Are you kidding? He was great with ever promo he ever did.

whats so surprising about it? he exposes all these snowflakes
'How to read a book' is actually a really useful book to read.
I dont know how to read it though.
Do they have a book that teaches you how to read the book "How to read a book"?

Warrior had shown regret over this speech years later. Warrior in his later years had become a very philosophical and inspirational person to me and his impact on my life I will cherish forever. In the digital age it's easy to go back and pick apart things a person has said or done and attribute that to their current mindset, but we are human and constantly evolving. The key is learning from our mistakes moving towards being a better version of ourselves. RIP Warrior
No he hasn't. Why would he regret telling the truth?
@@TheGOAT-hj6slHe made a lot of excellent points, but I thought he could’ve worded the rights/responsibilities question a bit better, because he was 100% correct in what he was saying but the way he said it confused some of the students.
He was right in everything he said. All you have to do is look around you.
I feel that Jim Hellwig was pushed into a corner by a group of people who were looking to use his words and statements in a way not intended... I don't agree with the idea that gay people are not humans who are no different than those who aren't gay. The 'they/them' bullshit however..... There is only women and men. Only 2 genders. It's science, not open for interpretation... Jim's point with the gays don't make society run or work, in my opinion means that one's sexual orientation means zero when it comes to societies growing and being successful.. I believe Jim was saying people put too much importance on gays in society then they should. While he doesn't agree a mayor of a city is the mayor.. not a GAY mayor. To put homosexuality in the forefront is wrong. Not wrong like it's a sin, but wrong as in it doesn't matter, putting 1st and prioritize it as more important than the person. Is wrong.
Many of them would be confused regardless simply because rights and responsibilities are a foreign concept to their pet ideology
Warrior was correct , 15 years later Caitlyn Jenner won the women of the year award ...and your telling me this world isn't going to shit.
Guy says nor.al common sense stuff, it's controversial, guy turns into a woman, it's brave
Normal
Well said but it's not the world that's going to shits it's this country the world's a beautiful place the Grass grows the trees bloom this country is disgusting how they praise people for coming out as homosexuals and tell them they are role models for young children
How exactly is winning an award equal to the world going to shit?
Delusional asshat.

They treated him like a substitute teacher smh
He did the job that night.
They say warrior was bad with fans but ive never seen an example of that. From what ive seen and experienced myself as a kid he'd always treated every fan with respect and made sure he made their experience with warrior as close to how they imagined it as possible. There are several videos on warrior interacting with fans and they were all good. He understood that the people are who really paid him. Man was crapped on a lot, but if you look into it yourself, youll see a lot of it was just flat out lies. I met him as a kid at a wwf house show and he threw me right on top of his shoulders for a picture like he was just one of my uncles. Here it is going on 30 something years later and i still remember that. Thats pretty incredible.
He is The Ultimate Warrior
Thank you for re uploading this
16 years later, relevant 2021
Exactly!!!!
Yeah it's like Warrior versus Wokeism set in an eternal battle of good versus evil in the universe!
Looking back now, the audience was very tame. This is 2005. Imagine him saying this in 2023.

I was at OU. (Univ of Oklahoma) Member of the Republican group and we talked about this for 2-3 weeks. Amazing you didn’t.

They’re all fuming at his spoken words, but he isn’t validating their feelings.. That’s what reality feels like. Reality gives zero fucks about your feelings.
Well said my friend
@Tom Smith Random ass comment 😂😂
@Tom Smith Trump is a pro-choice piece of crap anyways. Stop idolizing him, he's practically a democrate like most repubs are. They all get together at QUEER ANON's house and have sexy parties... it stinks like poop, booze, pot, and shame in the mornings.
Feelings don't put gas in my tank or pay my mortgage. Life has sharp corners sometimes- deal with it.
@Captain Charisma Your ignorance is astounding, but you're a mark for Christian or Christian Cage if you prefer. Most science and tech people aren't KKKonservaturds. They're social liberals/moderates, not KKKonservaturds. The low IQ morons tends to be religious and social KKKonservaturds. Fiscal conservatives are more likely to be Democrats. The two worst performing economies since The Great Depression were the two most recent Republican POTUSes (Drumpf and Dubya). The last time there was a US government surplus Bubba was the POTUS. The US economic expansion and bull market run started under Obama and ended under Drumpf, who was responsible for a net loss of jobs, not including the pandemic. Give your head a shake with your simpleton analysis.
The videos Warrior did on his TH-cam channel encouraged me to go for a degree. I just finished my Bachelor's and I wish he was still here so I could tell him how his unrelenting determination inspired me to go for it. Thanks, Warrior.
Congradulations Warrior!!!!!
That’s a weird encouragement, a fake wrestler/performer, although he was good! I was a fan gotta say but still I never looked up to any of them. But I had a dad, that was the real baddest motherfucker you ever met, so he was more of a role model to me! He earned a Purple Heart in Vietnam and was a iron worker like myself! My family would show me pictures of how jacked he was before the war and what it had done to him he never really came back I guess you could say! I know he taught me how to ride motorcycles and drive car and swim before I could remember like I was so small I don’t remember learning I just have always knew! I lost him to his 6th heart attack 6 years ago but his never give up spirit lives on in me and my boy!
Tammy Forbes Good for you pal
Oh yea? Well, Bret Hart inspired a fat woman to get her degree in Graphic Design in the mid-90's..... so beat THAT!
Yeah if it took the ultimate warrior to convince you to get a degree you have issues.
The funniest part is when Warrior told that dude to take the object out of his mouth.
When his music hit I was expecting him to rush the stage - Warrior style - and start shaking the podium 😂
That would have been halirous 😂😂
I would've expected that
I couldn’t stop laughing cause I can imagine him doing that 😂😂😂

Well no shit they are American. For some reason people think of a bygone era where Americans didn’t disagree and it didn’t exist the only difference if you go back far enough is everyone didn’t get to have an opinion or be heard.
@@zack6892 theu are indoctrinated marxists, ready to give up freedoms and societal norms for kids to be groomed to be gay and able to change genders at will. Society has never been fair or equal, not all societies are equal and some people contribution to society is worth having their input and influence over society.
He wasn't wrong about "queering".
I was fortunate enough to have attended this presentation and had the chance to chat with Warrior afterwards. We hit it off and met for lunch the next day and went sky diving after. Good guy!
yeh sure
Did he take you back to his Warrior Dungeon for a little oiled up rastlin', so he could let out a little bit of that repressed tension?
JanderVK I seem to recall Warrior once saying he would design personal training programs for people-but he needed a hundred bucks and a shirtless picture of them to do it. Yeah.
The warrior was basically saying be yourself and reach for your potential. Give your opinion and dont be politically correct.

@@rwlwrestlingleague2975 in those neighborhoods, there are plenty of examples of hyper masculinity leading criminal/violent acts.
Everything he said was 100% right.
About 34 minutes into the speach Warrior makes the claim that there can be no rights without responsibilities. Now, some members of the audience completely misunderstand this claim. They think that he's saying that a newborn child has to DO something to EARN its right to life. Obviously, Warrior isn't saying anything like that. His point is instead that the newborn child's right to life is DEPENDENT on others responsibility to fulfill or realize that right. And on this point, the prominent philosopher Onora O'neill agrees with Warrior. She says : "every right, by implication, also defines some obligation".
Upon reflection, I think Warrior is right. I too questioned his claim initially, but I think I see what he's saying now.
I can't think of any right that doesn't involve some responsibility from someone. Can you?
The thing is nowadays if your opinion differs from others you get crucified and get called names and considered a vile individual. Whatever happened to being tolerant towards others? Having to agree to disagree, live and let live and not push any agendas?
@@FlipGuitarist80 you should have told warrior that
Thanx for explaining that so the masses can understand!
(I'm also a critical analyst)
'WARRIOR' was talking complete shit as always. He was a soulless bully and I have no doubt he is suffering tremendously for his actions here on Earth.
May The Almighty Father Damn his rotten soul to the depths of Hell. May he suffer immensely.
wow it would be so epic if the Warrior was still around to battle SJW's now, what a legend.
Agreed ! I was expecting to see a bunch of SJW's in this comment section jumping on the Warrior for his honesty. ( there are some ) but it's nice to see some support for the Warrior. #RIPWarrior

Got that right
It's not confidence it's false sense of entitlement. These kids would cower from a fight in a second.
It's worse, not worst. Nothing worse than someone posting a comment trying to sound intelligent but can't spell.
Yep, nothing worse on the planet than that. Famine, death, poverty. All not as bad as a confident delusional student.
Still love rewatching this speech from The Ultimate Warrior!!
Actually this made it (with bleeps) to the A&E documentary!
FFS, no need to constantly adjust and zoom the camera. Ruined the video.
Queering doesn’t work.
"One small thing... when you bring me out, can you introduce me as Warrior?"
The crowd was a little soft. He was just tryin to get some heat.
FUCK YEAH .can't cook a steak with no fuckin heat
Warrior had sizzle and steak Terry just had a mouth full of horse shit
How can one man be so right yet so wrong at the same time???
Weird to think that these students are in their mid to late 30s now
Guaranteed most of them agree with what he's saying now.
I was a kid in Ireland and loved UW. Then I hear all these shoots that he couldn't wrestle. What! Now I know why MacMahon calls it sports entertainment because I was entertained. He had so much energy and so strong. Amazing. .. thank you UW.
Dublin here. I was the same
He couldn't wrestle tho most of his matches where poor quality
@@spencergouveia7449It just goes to show how unbelievably great Randy Savage was. Macho Man was able to get one of the greatest Wrestlemania matches ever out of the Warrior
He's right.
Wow, he speaks about the make a wish he was at for the 1st time in Albany NY...That's where I'm watching this from...woulda never have thought...interesting
He really is/was The Ultimate Warrior!!
Warrior spits the truth. FUCK what others think.
How am I just now seeing this?!
Nothing controversial about a man with solid morals!! Sad anyone would deem this controversial at all!! College kids are so infantile, its like reverting back to preschool!!
There is nothing more infantile than being a homophobe. You have a much smaller brain than those college kids.
@@wwe8620 At least he wasn't advocating to put kids on puberty blockers.
James Brian Hellwig(June 16,1959-April 8,2014)was a great man!
He changed his Name to warrior
Great at popping roids......
He spoke he truth even back then.
I wish Warrior was still with us. Gone too soon.
He didn't go to soon at all, he was a terribly wicked man and I hope and Pray he suffers in Hell for an extremely long time, possibly forever.
He was a bastard through and through and anyone who thinks he comes off as anything other than a tottol nutjub is as gone as he was.
@@young321bookie He changed for the better in his later years and anyone who met him during that time will tell you so. But besides that anyone who prays and wishes that someone else should burn in hell surely won't be welcome in Heaven. That is wrong and let God be the judge. People can change and internet warriors like yourself and this other guy just seem to like drama since you are ignoring the fact that he turned his life around and guys like Jake Roberts and even Hogan said that Warrior had turned into a completely different guy.
@@young321bookie then you just wished that upon yourself & it may get granted to you unless you repent
I don't know why but he's always reminded me of Kyle Reese from the first Terminator movie. LOL
Long live the Ultimate Warrior!
This speech has aged well. Profectic words.
Very bigoted indeed.
@@CosmoShidan While I don't agree with everything he says, he has the right to have his opinion, just as you have your right to throw labels around even at people you don't know. People like you have seriously watered down the words *bigoted & racist* so much they have lost all meaning & it takes away from people that have ACTUALLY experienced these things & that is truly sickening

Where is the rest of this? The q&a part?
Bro was living in a roid/cocaine/narcissistism induced stupor for 15 years and then lectures everyone about all his life lessons lmao
Was he the same person? A person can't change?
He did roids admittedly, however he has always been outspoken against cocaine and other street drugs. Where did you get your information that the warrior consumed cocaine?
@@scotthjackson5651Because stupid haters who buy into the whole ‘Warrior couldn’t wrestle, he hated the fans, other wrestlers couldn’t stand him blah blah’ spread vitriol about Warrior. Normally they make fun of his promos and affliate his high intensity with cocaine. It’s a tired, worn out ‘joke’ that was never funny in the first place. F*ck the haters, Warrior was awesome.
Good lord can you operate a tripod?
The cameraman is a feckless loser. Absolutely hopeless.
It's amazing how much backlash he got simply for stating the obvious fact that heterosexual behavior is more legitimate than homosexual behavior.
And isn't it? Am I as a rational person really supposed to believe that man on man sex is just as beautiful as sex between a man and a woman within the confines of marriage?
No. We as a society should not stoop so low. It's what destroyed the Roman Empire. We as conservatives need to speak up for family values and tradition. It's one thing to tolerate homosexuality, but by no means should we have to embrace it.
I stand with The Ultimate Warrior. Anyone else?
@P.90.603 well there is this thing called the Bible and if you read it, it says things in it pertaining to the subject at hand. Does it say to explicitly hate people due to so and so? No, but it does not legitimize it. The wages of sin are death and we will all sin enough to warrant it in our lives.
Who was the cameraman, Stevie Wonder and what was all that clicking about. A few times i came so close to shutting it off. Rip Warrior.
Funny thing is Hulk Hogan could’ve saved his life. He said when he went to apologize to him, he said the ultimate warrior was like wobbling around and didn’t look good. If the ultimate warrior would’ve went to the doctor right then and there we probably still would have him.
Doubt it.. his family had history of heart disease and his father died rather young as well
U mean hogan killed him
Everything he said was true then and even more true now.
It was true!!
It is true 💯
@@jacobmaldonado6406 colleges are only worse now. The warrior was warning us a long time ago. He achieved greatness. We are not all the same. And no one is great or has may opportunities in a communist society. They only push this gay stuff to further divide us and make our nation weak

Wrestling really is irrelevant to this whole speech.I don't agree with all that he said, but I agree with Alot of it, not all of it.
Wow. This was 2005? He was so right. Its exactly what happened and is still.happeneign today. You can deny it all you want but this speech was way ahead of its time. He was right all along.
Who is that person that keeps fiddling with the camera?
Agree or disagree..just make your point respectfully.
The student's right to life argument is nonsensical. Do these kids think that Europeans have fairies that magically pay everyone's hospital bills? Warrior asked if there are any rights that don't require responsibility. Just because a baby isn't responsible for his or her life doesn't mean that a responsibility on someone else's part to sustain that life doesn't exist. Even if we concede with the student's likely stance on socialized medicine, someone is still going to be responsible for paying for that child's "free" healthcare.
taxes provides for healthcare, in Europe it has been the model for decades and even if it's not the best healthcare in the world, people don't go bankrupt on it
@@abnormal2270 Right, but it requires responsibility on the part of Europeans to chip and pay taxes to fund such healthcare does it not?
