Walter Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Sad news to report, Randy "Macho Man" Savage died this morning in a car crash down here in Florida. I was in my teens when he and Miss Elizabeth were riding high in the (then) WWF. He was my favorite. Haven't followed that type of entertainment for some time, but reading the story about his death was sad. He was truly one of a kind and was one of the few from the professional wrestling world that transcended into the mainstream. RIP "Macho Man"! http://news.blogs.cnn.com/2011/05/20/macho-man-randy-savage-dies/?hpt=T2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PerpetualMotion Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Just goes to show ya, You can still die in a Hummer or H2, whatever they're called. I bet he was going too fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattmc1973 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Just goes to show ya, You can still die in a Hummer or H2, whatever they're called. I bet he was going too fast. He had a heart attack while driving. These wrestlers from the 80's are dropping like flies of heart problems - they were so roided and coked up. Macho Man ruled, he was always one of my favorites, but you could tell he was very juiced up and his heart wouldn't last long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattmc1973 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 (edited) His promos were the best... Here Hogan is worried about shaking hands with Macho Man, because their combined power just might blow up the planet...

MINI_Zoso Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 He used to wrestle around here in the 70's. I got to see him a couple of times. What a shame. Anyone heard of "The Cuban Assassin" "Killer Carl Croop"(not sure of spelling on that one) "The Carpet Bagger" "Leaping Lanny" "Bull Dog Bobby Brown"? Just a few of the names he tangled with.
