Randall Mario Poffo, best known as "Macho Man" Randy Savage, was one of the most notable names of Professional Wrestling during The Eighties and a good portion of The Nineties, with a career spanning over 20 years. Managed for much of his career by his late wife Miss Elizabeth, Savage (whether a face or heel) was the perfect complement to Hulk Hogan; while Hogan did well with the kiddies, Savage's intense and more adult character (particularly his romance with Elizabeth) appealed to their parents, and his mix of power wrestling, high flying maneuvers, and blatant shoot-you-in-the-back cheating drew in the more 'traditional' wrestling fans who didn't pop for Five Moves of Doom and bodybuilder posedowns. A 2x WWE World Heavyweight Champion and 4x WCW World Heavyweight Champion, Savage would go on to wrestle Spider-Man, provide the voice of an intergalactic wrestler, hawk beef jerky and make a rap CD.

Savage passed away on May 20th, 2011 at the age of 58: after suffering a sudden, massive heart attack while driving, he lost control of his Jeep Wrangler and crashed into a tree. Initial reports of his death indicated that he had been killed in the collision, when in fact he and his wife had been wearing seatbelts and suffered only minor physical injuries in the crash.

On January 12, 2015, after years of hoping from the fans, it was announced that Savage would finally go in to the WWE Hall of Fame.
