Anyone that knows me probably knows I'm a big Pro-Wrestling fan, always have been. Yes... I know it's fake, but that's what makes it so entertaining; it's made to look brutal, but it's not. It's a story put into physical action, and maybe that's part of the lure.

I was shocked moments ago to read this morning that the Ultimate Warrior passed away a few hours ago. He was just inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame on Saturday night, and addressed RAW's crowd on Monday night. I grew up watching him as a kid, and he was definitely one of my favourite wrestlers - so intense, powerful and entertaining to watch every time he stepped in the ring. The really sad thing is that he was only 54.

Godspeed Warrior - thanks for inspiring so many of us to be as intense at life as you were to entertain us.

Edit: Some very touching tweets from fellow wrestlers, so many of which were inspired by him as a kid: http://www.wwe.com/inside/wwe-superstars-react-to-ultimate-warrior-passing-26225128
