Is there anything more entertaining in all of the wrestling world than reading the Warrior interacting with the mere mortals who dare ask him questions on the Internet?
Nothing like pimpin' your own action figure online to pay the bills.

How dumb was I to expect his "item description" to be only a couple lines of... item describing? Of course he spends a whole page telling me how "small-minded" I would be not to jump on this once in a lifetime opportunity to purchase these action figures from the one and only entity who is the sole owner and creator of the most devastating intellectual force in the history of professional sports entertainment wrestling and so on yadda etc etc.
Judging by some of the questions, I really wouldn't be surprised if this is a false Warrior. He's never seemed to have had that much of a sense of humour about himself before.

Originally posted by Ultimate Warrior While I’m at it, many have written me about what that surface is that my action figures (at ebay) are sitting on for the picture I have put up. That’s one of my kitchens. I designed and built it when I refurbished my 100 year old double-adobe home a few years ago. I told you about that. Those are Talavera tiles — over 25,000 just in this kitchen. Our home here in NM has over 250,000 of these in it; all of them laid by me, each laid out in a design of some authentic Petroglyphic symbol or a Native American motive.
Originally posted by Sec19Row53Looking at his feedback, I laughed at the fact that he just recently bought a coffee maker.
I can't imagine that he needs caffeine.
What's worse is that he paid far too much for it. $130 including shipping and he should at least get a thermal carafe so it's not there burning on the hotplate. If he really doesn't care how his coffee tastes, that's his own business. But he could buy an automatic timer timer and a low end Mr. Coffee for $20 total at Wal-Mart for the same gastronomic effect.
hrm!? The action figure box has the WWE logo on it... meaning these figures are relatively new and licensed by WWE. (?!)
WOT?!
I dont get it... does Ultimate Warrior hate WWE but still allow them to sell him in toy form or do they just own the trademark and after all his blabbing about integrity, he's pimping a WWE licensed product?!
And yeah... his item description is a blinding crimson rant.

Here's how it goes.
Everyone who's had an action figure made of them has to give permission to use their likeness. Warrior gave JAKKS permission to use his likeness on their action figures. The contract is with JAKKS not WWE. If Jakks wants to use the likeness to make WWE figures, it's their right. They have permission from Warrior to use his likeness any way they see fit. Jakks just has to pay Warrior for use of the likeness.
For every other WWE product(IE Video Games), WWE would need Warrior's permission. Which he refuses to give unless a price is met.
As for the DVD. WWE already owned the footage, so they can do what they like with it. They just had to pay Warrior for use of the name, which Warrior owns. WWE did so, and gave credit as such. Warrior just had no personal involvement in making the DVD.
Did you read the Q&A section on the auction listing? I had to ask if he was selling any figures from when he was The Renegade. I am desperate to read his response.
Rusty Shackleford is just the name he uses to order Pizza with.
