Yeah, he's a nut. But it sure helped him when he played the Ultimate Warrior. No acting necessary for him there.

I thought Bam-Bam was awesome. Sadly, he too passed away.

I'll give a list of guys and girls who died probably before they should have over recent years
Owen Hart
Sherri "Scarri" Martel
Macho-Man and Elizabeth
Chris Benoit
Eddie Guerrero
Mike Awesome
"Eathquake" John Tenta
The Big Bossman
Mr Perfect Curt Hennig
The British Bulldog Davey Boy Smith
Yokozuna
Rick Rude
Almost the entire Von Erich family
Road Warrior Hawk
Brian Pillman
The list goes on....

basically if you turned on today some 80s-90s wrestling and had a drink every time a guy who is now dead came out, you'd be drunk off your ass in no time

Call me crazy, but I'm pretty sure he died exactly when he wanted to.

Too bad the guy died but how can they say two world titles in a scripted bs non sport. The writers let him win twice-wow what and achievement. Also the best match comment makes me laugh because once again it is all scripted bs.

"Randy Savage will not be having a public funeral because he made it clear that he didn't want one. There will be a family only service.

He will be creamated with his ashes spread around his favorite tree, just as he did with his dog. Lanny Poffo told http://www.TMZ.com that Randy would say, "If it's good enough for Herc (his dog), it's good enough for me.""

Yahoo notes that 14 out of 51 of the performers in 1991's Wrestlemania VII have now passed with Macho Man being the oldest by far among the casualties:

Well, it is still being top of your craft. Even if your craft is fake fighting dudes in your underwear.

Think of a title as something more like a Toni or Oscar rather than something like the Stanley Cup or The Commissioner's Trophy. The competition in wrestling comes from manipulating the audience into loving and/or hating you.

The writer's "gave" him those titles because Macho Man was one of the most charismatic and entertaining wrestlers of all time. He earned them.
