Randy Poffo, wrestling superstar aka Randy "Macho Man" Savage" dies at 58 in a car accident. Known as one of the top wrestlers in the 80's and 90's with his "Oh Yeah" raspy voiced motto, it's suspected he may have had a heart attack at the wheel of his car before crashing into a tree. Wife Lynn is not seriously injured.

I'm not a wrestling fan now, but back when it was WWF and at it's peak, yup, guilty pleasure, I used to get a kick out of the theatrics and over the top drama that was WWF.

RIP Randy, you had a great career and will be remembered by many.

NO NOT THE MACHO KING. Now how am I going to snap into a SlimJim? Well, the world just sucked a little more.

I also used to watch that stuff as a kid. The Undertaker scared me.

He might not actually be dead we'll have to see if someone unexpected jumps out of the coffin as they are lowering it into the ground.

I used to love watching him. Intense all the time. Even when he was talking in an even low tone he could snap at any moment.
