CM Punk and Ultimate Warrior put each other over on Twitter

by Geno Mrosko on Jan 22, 2012 12:16 AM EST in WWE

Already you may be asking yourself why I'm even covering something like this when there are far more important issues in the pro wrestling world. CM Punk and Ultimate Warrior putting each other over on Twitter? Big deal.

I mostly agree. But there's just something that fascinates me about the entire idea behind these two forging a bond through the videos Warrior has been releasing with his "Dr. Warrior" gimmick in which he gives what he calls "injections of inspiration."

He released one just the other day and Punk took to Twitter to respond to it.

"If you think @UltimateWarrior is just screaming, you're missing the message. Kill or be killed. Everyday. No sleep. No rest. Death to tyrants."

As a way to return the favor, Warrior sent this out in response.

"There are "punks" aplenty in the world. But there are definite reasons why @CMPunk isn't one of them. You fans of his, pay attention. Learn."

Imagine that -- a straightedge, drug free Punk hand-in-hand with a radical, insane Warrior.

Another reason I wanted to post this is because Warrior's inspirational videos never cease to amaze me. You can't help but feel like you're just being screamed at by a juiced up former flash in the pan whose time has long since passed him by but if you actually listen to his message and bother to take the time to decipher it, he makes total and complete sense.

He actually is, in the most crazy insane way possible, inspirational.

Watch the video Punk was responding to after the jump.

No quote is more inspirational then this Warrior Quote.

, Hoke…Hogan, have a question…to answer your question. As you, Hulk Hogan, travel to…WRESTLEMANIA…by conventional means, the normals you travel with experience malfunctions. As you realize ALL THAT IS LEFT is total self-destruction, do you, Hoke Hogan, show self-pity? DO YOU, Hoke Hogan, try to reason why? Do you, Hoke Hogan, try and comfort the normals that have even more fear than you?

Or do you, Hoke Hogan, kick the doors out? Kick the cockpit door down. Take the two pilots that have already made the sacrifice so that you can face the challenge. Dispose of them, Hoke Hogan. Assume the controls, Hoke Hogan. SHOVE THAT CONTROL INTO A NOSEDIVE, HOKE HOGAN! Push yourself to total self-dstruction. As you realize, Hulk Hogan, you are about to enter a world close to Parts Unknown. Ah, smell it, warriors. Do you, Hulk Hogan, look for a place to hide? Or do you, Hulk Hogan, face the challenge that may be more powerful than EVEN YOU ARE, HOKE HOGAN!

You, Hulk Hogan, must self-destruct so that you will know, Hoke Hogan, who is…The Chose One. FOR HOKE HOGAN, I am not the Chosen One…that you speak of. I am not. I, Hoke Hogan, am…the only…one…

I've got something to say; it better to burn out than to fade away!!!
I'm still waiting for my CM Punk WWE Ice Cream Bar.

And that, my friend….scares me the most. If you cut through the B.S., the man makes perfect. sense.

Also…that picture is so great, I HAD to make it my profile pic.

To me...

intensity is the thing that draws me to a person the quickest. It happened with Goldberg. Warrior as a kid… him too.. but, what I hated was his craziness & the belief that a 250# man w/ a splash can get a win but Akeem couldn’t at 450#.

You raise a very valid point, sir.

I was a little Warrior growing up and the fact that he was so energetic appealed to me. Then…I saw Bret Hart wrestle…and it was all over.

Oh..btw…to answer your question from the past Monday…I’m not dating a redhead. Or anyone, for that matter. Can’t be arsed.

I agree...

There was a couple I listened to. He I picked up quickly that he’d be one hell of a inspiration & life coach. If you have goals & have nothing holding you back.. then Warrior can get you there. Just take his messages & put them on your i-thingy.. and loop it.. hit the weight room & before you know it.. you’ll be a madman. He certainly was on roids.. but it still was a lot of work to get cut up like that… and outside the weights.. he still is inspirational. Forget going on BET to get your morning inspiration.. just hit Warrior’s channel.

yes!

Finally people are starting to come around!

His last video was probably the scariest, but it’s true, the messages always inspire me. It may not be for everyone, but Warrior is doing positive things with his life, for the most part.

As a crazy person myself, I can attest that...

Occasionally, crazy people are right. So I suppose Warrior making sense is not completely out of the realm of possibility.

Time to spread a little chaos...

Given enough time...

Yes. It’d just take next to forever.

I wish Warrior never did any of those crazy exposé videos about Hogan or any of the other creeps from that era. If he just took the high road and did stuff like this in line with his oWn gimmick he’d probably be twice as over.

It is not enough to succeed. Others must fail.

the warrior is a bum and punk would do best by not commenting on or about this idiot.

Warrior's not insane -- in 2012.

Don’t get me wrong, I can see why people think he is —especially if you remember all his crazy wrestling promos and his turn-of-the-century webpage and political writings.

But by his own admission, this is a guy who, in the last several years, has really tried to educate himself by become a voracious reader. As he’s read and written more, he’s grown capable of constructing coherent statements and ideas. Compare his out-of-character video blogs from this past year to his truly nutty writings or political speeches from a decade ago — he comes across as a lot better.

Unfortunately, all he reads is Ayn Rand and classical Greek literature, which has a moral perspective that is a bit off-putting to most. Still, if you keep in mind the perspective he’s coming from, almost everything he says — including his inspirational rants — logically follows. And for better and for worse, the Warrior’s moral code probably has more than a little overlap with CM Punk’s.
