RIP Randy. He was the man. I liked when him and Sting were tag team partners. I know they were great friends in real life.

I loved watching wrestling on TV when I was a little kid...drove my mom nuts. (funny...can't stand watching WWE now)
RIP Randy
The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

apparently, when the paramedics arrived on scene, they raised his arm twice to see if he was alive. on the third time it fell down and he wasn't responding.

This makes me sad...Real sad
When a friend of mine called me today and told me the news, they knew I would be bummed.
Growing up in the 70's I was a big fan of wrestling. Dick the Bruiser, Da Crusher, Ox Baker, Jimmy and Johnny Valiant, Andre The Giant, etc. etc. After not watching for 7-8 years, the WWF made and Vince McMahon made Wrestling popular again in the mid 80"s. There wasnt a BETTER wrestler than Randy Savage! People say Flair was the best, and its a damn good argument. But in my eyes Randy Savage was the BEST! In his younger days he could move around that ring and put on a show, like no other. His Wrestlemania match with Steamboat is probably the GREATEST match you can possibly watch.
Flair
Steamboat
Gagne
Sammartino
They were all great...
But Randy Savage was the best pure athlete, entertainer that ever Wrestled.....
RIP Randy
You put on ONE HELL OF A SHOW!!!!!
OHHH YEAHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
His Wrestlemania match with Steamboat is probably the GREATEST match you can possibly watch.
Read a little tidbit on this yesterday...Macho Man and Steamboat actually choreographed that whole thing out move by move and would get together at Macho's house and rehearse it. The other wrestlers knew it was a classic immediately and were hugging and congratulating the guys backstage.

Its just an amazing match. Those guys just kept going, and going, and going.
Ive seen Flair wrestle for 30-40 minutes.
Ive seen Flair put on a HELL OF A SHOW....
I saw both Flair and Savage live, when they were both in their prime...
Savage was the BEST!!!
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
Does anyone remember this match from later in his career when he was at WCW? Him against Sting at Spring Stampede 1998 for the title in a no DQ. I was bummed Sting lost.

Hogan Vs. Savage for the title. James Buster Douglas Refs, you remember what happens. You KNEW someone was gonna feel a big right hand from the boxing champ, and pretty sure it was going to be Hogan.

forgot about that. I remember it was suppose to be Mike Tyson instead of Buster Douglas but after Douglas beat Tyson he took his place.
There was one promo from Saturday Nights Main Event with Savage that I liked but I can't find it on youtube anywhere. I just remember "East of Jupiter, west of mars, north of saturn" or something like that. I'll have to look for it on my VHS tapes.
loved his t-shirt also

Fav match with him, had to be Wrestlemania III against Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat. He lost but it was one hell of a match.
Another fav against Bret Hart on Saturday Nights Main Event when Randy "wrestled" basically on one leg and won!

Yep, there is a long list of wrestlers dying much too young.
Here's one of my favorite Space Ghost Coast To Coast episodes, where he did the voice of Space Ghost's grandfather:
