Joe and I in the same squad is basically the virtual equivalent of us plowing a rape van through an elementary school playground at recess.

Terrible news.  Randy Savage was a legend, and from a time when wrestling was actually great.  RIP, Macho Man.

A little tidbit many may not know about his classic match with Ricky Steamboat at WMIII is that those two guys spent weeks getting every thing in that match down pat by practicing at Savage's gym in Florida.  Everything in that match was choreographed beforehand by the two, and it resulted in one of the best matches ever.  It also broke from convention, as matches back then always went a certain way (face starts off strong, heel then slows it down and dominates for a while, face makes a comeback, and then the match ends somehow), but that match was almost nothing but holds, countermoves, etc, with neither guy ever having a sustained advantage.  An absolute gem, even watching it today.

I never watched him wrestle when I used to watch it back in the 00's and a bit before that, but I definitely respect him for what he did for the business. RIP

What the fuck?

RIP :(
I imagined the story to go more like this.

I was sitting a traffic light blaring Space Dye Vest and next to me in another car was Kevin Moore. And I'll never be open again.

This really does suck though. I don't watch wrestling and even if I did he was a bit before my time but I do really appreciate him for this Left 4 Dead sound mod.

His WWF run was a little bit before my time, and I never really watched WCW, but growing up we had a blank tape that had Wrestlemania 4 on it (tournament for the vacated WWF championship, Macho wrestled 4 times and beat Ted Dibiase in the finals). I used to watch that all the time as a little kid, and couldn't help but mark out every time when Hogan came out to save the day and Savage won the belt.

Argument, the presentation of reasonable views, never makes headway against conviction, and conviction takes no part in argument because it knows.

I'm not as high on his status as you are, but that match really did stand out.  One of the classics.

RIP, Macho Man.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.
