AP Talks to Waltman and Triple H

The Associated Press has picked up on the story of Ultimate Warrior's sudden death yesterday, and the piece contains quotes from both Triple H and Sean Waltman. Triple had the following to say regarding Vince and Warrior's talk over WrestleMania weekend:

"Vince said to him a couple of days ago, 'I've always loved you," Triple H recalled. "Sometimes, I didn't like you, but I always loved you."

On the subject of Warrior's health this past weekend, Sean Waltman had the following to say:

"I got a sense he wasn't well," Waltman said. "It was sad to me. He was kind of hunched over. He used to have such great posture. You just had this sense that he wasn't well. But he was in great spirits. He came up to (other wrestlers) and gave them hugs."
