Brothers in Paint: 10 best face painted wrestlers of all time

#3 The Ultimate Warrior

The Ultimate Warrior

Jim Hellwig first donned face paint as the Dingo Warrior, but it was in the WWE that he became his greatest character of all.

The Ultimate Warrior stood out from his peers for a lot of reasons. For one, he ran to the ring and shook the ring ropes like a primate having an apoplectic fit.

Second, he painted his face with a distinctive winged design, meant to evoke both a bird of prey and the Superman symbol. Ultimate Warrior was a superhero long before the days of John Cena, always overcoming the odds and lifting his foes with his patented Gorilla Press Slam.
