  • Here's a fun one: when he's giving one of his highly erudite and concise promos, pay attention to anyone else in the room, and imagine what's going through their minds as they listen to him. Just thinking about the sheer willpower it must've taken for these guys to not to start Corpsing in front of the camera because of him will have you in stitches.
  • His anti-smoking PSA. The sight of Warrior with a mouth full of cigarettes alone is hilarious, and it only gets crazier from there. It must be seen to be believed.
  • His team with Randy Savage led to some.....unique interviews. You know something's hilariously messed up if "The Macho Man" comes off as the sane, rational one.
  • In 2013, he did a commercial promoting his appearance in the WWE 2K14 video game, which featured him going around the 2K Games office, beating up random employees while giving one of his trademark promos.
  • The Ultimate Warrior vs Phil Collins!
  • Survivor Series 1989 features a hilarious out-of-character moment for Warrior. Bobby Heenan is forced to take part in a Survivor Series match note  with Arn Anderson, AndrĂ© the Giant and Haku, versus Warrior, the Rockers and Jim Neidhart. Heenan gets by thanks to his teammates doing all the dirty work, but by the end, Heenan and Warrior are alone, after Warrior takes out Arn Anderson. As Heenan begs Arn to come back, Warrior decides to sneak up on him, and actually starts laughing in the process. Heenan's Oh, Crap! face is the icing on the cake. (And yes, Heenan gets his shit ruined.)
    • While he's sneaking up on Heenan, Warrior looks at the crowd and motions toward Heenan's direction with his thumb as if to say, "Check this out." With a giant grin on his face the whole time.
  • Andre the Giant used to like to tell a story about how he faced Warrior in a series of house show matches early in Warrior's career. Warrior was supposed to clothesline Andre, who would then get his arms caught in the ropes (one of Andre's favorite spots). Except Warrior was working far too stiff and kept getting stiffer. Andre merely said "He will learn." Next time the spot comes up, Andre simply holds out his fist for Warrior to run into, hard enough to crack his face paint. He learned, being gentle as a feather next time.
  • In 1996, Goldust attempted to psyche out THE ULTIMATE WARRIOR with his usual creepy sexual double entendre act. THE WARRIOR. Everybody on Earth knew this would not end well for Goldust, but the verbal onslaught that preceded the inevitable ass whupping was totally unexpected.
    Warrior: Let me tell you something, freak! Whatever you're trying to pull from the minds of those you SCREW with, and whatever those choose to do with what you dish out, let me make it perfectly clear: what is, is. And whatever you're into, I don't give a shit!!!
    • And when the Golden One tries to rile up Warrior with his trademarked "skeevy bark", Warrior responds with-
    Warrior: Brother, if you're looking for a full-length, action-packed adventure, I've got a movie for you- with me kicking your ass from beginning to end! (proceeds to do so.)
  • His first appearance at WWE where he defeats the Honky Tonk Man in 30 seconds, as shown on the main page.
