Eariler today Macho Man Randy Savage passed away down in Florida at the age of 58. Rand was became a mainstream star in the 80s and 90s in the WWF (Now WWE) and WCW. For a number of years he was the spokesman for Slim Jim and did a number of TV commercials. He also appeared in the Spiderman movie as well.
Savage had colorful outfits, could cut a great promo and was a great in ring performer. His finishing move, the flying elbow was one of the best finishing moves of all time. During Wrestlemania 3 he wrestled Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat in a match many considered one of the best ever. He was an entertaining bad guy and good guy throughout his career. I only saw him wrestle once in person back in 1993 when he wrestled Jerry Lawler in Detroit.
I’ll share below some great videos of The Macho Man. Thanks for memories Randy and great catchphrases “Dig It!” and “Oh Yeah.” Even if you aren’t a wrestling fan his personality and promos would still make you laugh.
