Ultimate Warrior Autopsy Results: Jim Hellwig Suffered Massive Heart Attack

The cause of death behind The Ultimate Warrior’s unfortunate passing on April 8 has finally been revealed.

According to a report by TMZ.com, Jim Hellwig (Warrior) suffered a massive heart attack outside of an Arizona hotel while walking to the car with his wife. This information was learned after an autopsy was conducted.

Medical examiners determined that Warrior suffered from Atherosclerotic/Arteriosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease, or Heart Disease for short.

The report notes that his death was natural, meaning drugs and alcohol were not directly involved.

The WWE will pay tribute to The Ultimate Warrior tonight during “Monday Night RAW.”

Editor’s Note

I’d be interested to hear what television host Nancy Grace would have to say after learning the results of Hellwig’s autopsy. Regardless of what caused his death to occur, the fact of the matter remains that The Ultimate Warrior is no longer with his. Hopefully these results can help bring closure to his family and his fans all over the world.
