Opinions:
“Randy Savage’s intensity and charisma captivated audiences for over 30 years, whilst capturing some 29 championships. Rivaling the likes of Hulk Hogan, in terms of drawing power, the “Macho Man” not only entertained audiences out of the ring, cutting some truly iconic promos, but was unquestionable one of the most gifted wrestlers to step between the ropes. A spot in the top 10 draws no complaints from me.” — Matt Burgess
“Without question one of the absolute greatest of all time. I’m a huge Randy Savage fan and always have been. He was the one wrestler growing up that I can distinctly remember having such a love/hate relationship with…ya know, since I believed in pro wrestling. The Mega Powers storyline from the first time Hogan helped Savage on the October 3, 1987 Saturday Night’s Main Event until WrestleMania V is one of the greatest storylines ever executed in the history of the business. And Randy Savage was the reason for that. His ability to get you emotionally invested whether he was a babyface or a heel was incredible. I’ll never forget where I was or what I was doing when I heard the news that Randy had passed away. Heartbroken. Plain and simple. I always wanted to see him return to WWE one final time. Rest in Power, Macho Man Randy Savage.” – Jay Alletto
