Shocking news.

Yeah, i just heard about this. RIP

For what it's worth, Macho Man vs. Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat at WM3 is my favorite match of all time, and it's easily in contention as the best ever.

OMG I can't believe it! This really is sad. I'm shocked!

Macho vs Steamboat is one of my favs of all time as well. I also loved his series of matches against Flair, and his match against Ultimate Warrior at WM7 in my opinion was better than Hogan's match vs Warrior at WM6.

Randy Savage is one of my favorite wrestlers of all time. Vince McMahon BETTER induct him into the WWE Hall Of Fame this year. He should have done it a long time ago.

R.I.P. Macho Man, you'll always be a champion in my eyes.

I loved the storyline they used for WM7, but the match itself wasn't great. Still, most matches are better than Hogan vs. Warrior at WM6.

Macho Man deserves to be in the HOF, but i wouldn't bet on it.

I liked the match personally. Warrior was a sub-par worker but I felt that Macho Man carried him to a 4.5 star match. The Hogan/Warrior match was pretty good too considering that both guys are limited outside of raw power.

As for the HOF, there's been an urban legend going around saying that Macho Man slept with a then-underage Stephanie and that's why he hasn't been inducted but I don't buy it. If that were true, Vince would have had him thrown in jail.

Yeah, i've heard the Stephanie story too, but Vince released the Macho Man DVD, and other merchandise in recent years. Hopefully the HOF is next.

Yeah, that's another reason why I don't buy the Steph story. I have the Macho Man DVD, and he's in the latest WWE All-Stars game too. I sure hope the HOF is next.

How is the Macho Man set? what matches does it have?

It's great! It has the aforementioned matches with Steamboat and Warrior we talked about as well as an additional Steamboat match from like 85 or so. Some Hogan matches, Flair matches, DDP matches, a Tito Santana match, a Bruno Sammartino match, a Jake The Snake match, a really cool match vs a young Shawn Michaels, and a tag team match with him and Bret Hart vs Flair and Michaels. There's more but those are the highlights. Definitely worth a purchase.

Damn man, hate to hear this. Macho is one of my fav wrestlers.

And i agree that Steamboat vs. Savage>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

RIP to one of the best ever.

I got it also, and now i'm even more glad I got it. And that new WWE All Stars game which is the 1st time in a long time a Macho Man character has graced one of their games.

Yeah the DVD and the game are dope as fuck! I just might pop the DVD back in tonight or tommorrow to reminisce.

The news was the first thing I saw when I got online today. It was shocking, and it certainly does suck.

R.I.P. Macho Man.

RIP Randy. Besides L.O.D., he was my favorite as a kid. Sad news, all these wrestlers pass way too soon. I still have have my airbrushed tee of Hulk Who? like the one he sported from when I was 6 or so (this thing is so small it could fit on a stuffed animal). Yes, over here we've never stopped thinking the air brush tee was a good idea hahahaha.

Christ...another heart attack?

I'm not a wrestling fan in the least, but RIP

RIP Macho Man

Never watched wrestling but I've heard of this guy. Has to mean something. R.I.P.

It doesn't have the debacle that was Savage and Zeus vs. Hogan and Beefcake? That sucks.
