When word hit this morning that WWE/WWF wrestling legend Randy ‘Macho Man’ Savage died in a car crash, I have to say that a tear came to my eye.

When I was little I got a chance to see him in all his over-exaggerated glory – and it was a spectacular showing.

TMZ was first to report on the story, after they spoke with Savage’s brother Lanny Poffo, who told the TMZ staff that his brother suffered a heart attack while driving with his wife Lynn, in Seminole, Florida.

According to the Florida highway patrol, Savage was driving his Jeep Wrangler when he veered across the median into oncoming traffic and ended up in a head on collision with a tree.

The wrestling legend was taken to Largo Medical Center where he died of his injuries. Savage was 58.

Miraculously, wife Lynn who was in the passenger seat received only minor injuries, and was treated at a different hospital.

One of my favorite moments in WWF history; Randy Savage and Honky Tonk Man from Saturday Night Main Event XII. The Hart Foundation interfere in the fight, and Hulk Hogan comes to his rescue.

Now THAT is entertainment!

R.I.P. Randy. You will be missed.
