The sad shit is I was getting back into old wrestling clips and love Macho's old promos. He was so energetic and crazy, it was so dam fun to watch him go.
Even if you guys don't like wrestling just give it a look, for a true Legend of wrestling .

This is a tragedy. One of the greatest ever and a fixture of my childhood.
The guy oozed charisma on the stick and could WORK. All wrestling fans know that his match against Ricky Steamboat at Wrestlemania 3 is one of the best ever, but the guy was almost always on point in the ring. Hell, he got a great match out of the Ultimate Warrior even!
What makes this double sad is that Macho seemed to be having a great year. He's been smart with his money, so he doesn't have to embaress himself on TV like Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair are doing now, he re-married last year (Surprisingly with an age appropriate woman, unlike Hogan who married a proxy for his daughter) and he was making amends with bot Vince McMahon and Hulk Hogan after years of animosity.

R.I.P. Macho Man Randy Savage
Seeing a young Mike Tenay is the weirdest thing.
The old WWF was amazing. Right now, WWF is fucking garbage. There is more "drama" on it then daytime dramas. Not just WWF, TNA is garbage as well. It's ridiculous.
I have a stuffed toy of Randy from when I was a kid and when you would bend the leg or arm it would say things like "OW YOUR BREAKING MY LEG" or "OOH YOUR BUSTING MY ARM".
Truly was a sad day for the wrestling business. The Macho Man was a legend and I hope that he will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in the coming years.
I realized this was an anniversary post almost immediately after, but when I saw this had been bumped back up, my first reaction was, "Nooooo! Not again!"
