So it seems I've been misinformed about Jake the Snake.    He's one man I wish well.

Another part of my childhood died with this news last Friday.  He is probably the first of the major wrestlers (i.e. main eventers) that I grew up that has passed away.  I don't count Andre the Giant as he was on his last legs when I first watched him.  Savage was the first total package as a wrestler I can remember.  

At least he lived to 58.  But a heart attack and then losing control of your vehicle has to be nightmare way to go out.

It's truly a shame and sad another icon we grew up with as kids is now gone. He was part of the heart and soul of the old WWF. I don't think i have watched wrestling since back then, but i sure did enjoy it back in the 80s, and he was a big reason why.

Savage was the first total package as a wrestler I can remember.

So true for me. I really enjoyed watching WWF wrestling back then on TV and watching Hulk Hogan, Honky tonk man (entertaining to watch him dance or smash a guitar), the Ultimate Warrior (his veins had me praying "please don't explode live!"). But Randy Macho Man Savage was the first wrestler that made me go to a store and buy his famous picture frame of him with Elizabeth sitting on his shoulder. Man, I really loved the guy, even when he fought Hulk Hogan at some point. I know most of it was a show, but man, I really cared about that incredible show wrestlers put just for us. And I just watched the movie "The Wrestler" yesterday for the first time and instantly remembered towards the end, Macho Man amongst others.
