When it came to the Warrior's career and backstage antics, he didn't make a lot of friends. Many wrestlers hated working with him because of his tendencies to refuse to sell, work snug and careless, and several wrestlers were injured in matches against him because of his attitude. There are all sorts of stories about his unprofessionalism behind the scenes...I recommend searching out the podcasts and interviews from wrestling journalists and executives such as Jim Ross, Jim Cornette, Eric Bischoff, Wade Keller, and Dave Meltzer...to name a few.

Vice (the producers of Dark Side Of The Ring) actually wrote a pretty good article that highlighted some of whitewashing of the Warrior's bigoted and homophobic behaviors back in 2017, as well as some of the other heinous things he said and did post career such as praising Heath Ledger for "killing himself" and essentially celebrating former wrestling manager Bobby Heenan's cancer diagnosis...insinuating it was deserved and karma.

Deadspin also wrote a terrific article about the UW, which gives even more details over how bonkers and deplorable he was...
