Sad news to report for fans of wrestling, snappin’ into Slim Jims, or this song—”Macho Man” Randy Savage has passed away at the age of 58. TMZ is reporting that the former minor league baseball player turned WWF superstar (and crazed pitchman for dried beef and spice products) was killed in an automobile accident that occurred moments after he suffered a heart attack while driving.

Here’s hoping he reunites with Miss Elizabeth in heaven.

  1. Was Ric Flair the dude who dressed in blue and had a Lightning painted across his face like David Bowie? If so, yes.

  2. @ Leaky – no. he was the one always in a suit and/or extravagant cape with multiple girls around him and continually talking about how wonderful he was.

    re: Macho Man. does anyone know how Miss Elizabeth is taking this?

  3. Make sure you set properly set the date and time on your computer devices. Randy was raptured a day early due to faulty date time.

  4. Oh jeez… Wrestlemania 5, Hulk Hogan versus Macho Man! George “The Animal” Steele’s rivalry with Macho Man’s lady! Macho Man accidentally crushing Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat’s throat! He made the 80s WWF a great spectacle.

    Has anyone ever eaten a Slim Jim, though? Seriously?

  5. @Eric Cantona…since Miss Elizabeth has been dead for several years, I’m assuming she’s not available for comment.
