TMZ spoke with Randy's brother, Lanny Poffo, who tells us the wrestling legend suffered a heart attack while he was behind the wheel around 10 AM ... and lost control of his vehicle. Earlier this month, Savage celebrated his 1-year anniversary with his new wife Lynn. Macho Man Randy Savage Dies In Car Accident | TMZ.com
Tell Elizabeth I said hi. Im gonna go out on a limb and guess his heart problems were due to roids much like the hundreds of other wrestlers and bodybuilders that died real young.
Why am I picturing Mickey Rouke in The Wrestler? Wonder if that was how it was for Randy's last few years?
I was thinking the same thing. Great.....now my 9 year-old son (HUGE fan of WWE) is going to have a million and one questions for me tonight.......

Not on that list is someone I went to school with, "Cowboy Chris Duffy" who died at age 36; http://www.obsessedwithwrestling.com/profiles/c/chris-duffy.php
Bummah, maybe this is the rapture they've been talking about. Just in case you needed to remember how crazy he was... [nomedia="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53hiHAkK6KA"]YouTube - Macho Man on coke‏[/nomedia]
Mr. Perfect is dead? I had no idea. I was actually watching the Wrestlemania when Owen Hart died... Kid fell 50ft over the ring to his death... Hawk from the Legion of Doom (or the Road Warriors, depending upon the year) had a massive booze issue... Too bad, the Doomsday Device is still the best finisher I've ever seen!
7, I met him back in 1990 in Boston at Champions in Copley Sq. An absolute mountian of a human. And you're right, he was a great guy. Knocking back cranberry and vodka's like they were giving them away. His hands were so big it looked like he was drinking out of dixie cups. They were 16 oz.
Another needless Slim-Jim related death. Well, he's snapping into the big one in the sky now. You won't need antacids where you're going Randy.
Re: Andre the Giant I used to work in a hotel. I was told that Andre stayed at this same hotel when he was alive. I was told that he was too large (500+ lbs) for the toilet. I was told he was a big drinker (alcohol). Anyways, he apparently dropped a huge shit in a bureau drawer (not kidding). I just feel bad for the guys who wrestled him. He must have wreaked, especially having been French........
Re: Andre the Giant While nothing would surprise me anymore I dont think Andre would have defiled wood like that he respects wood. There is a great documentary I saw on him, real nice guy I felt sad for him he lived in a isolated world even though he was always surrounded by people.
Spicy, processed meat particles extruded into a whip shaped snack? What's not to love? I like when they package cheese right along side the "meat", it's a quad bypass to go. I heard Randy actually died from an aneurysm when he yelled "Snap into it!" to his wife, whom he was coercing into giving road head.
