Saying Goodbye to Randy Savage - DELETED SCENE SESON 1 - DARK SIDE OF THE RING

[@harbinger_9152]

“It’s okay for macho men to cry” -Randy Savage. I definitely cried.

[@coachd49]

“If it’s good enough for Hercules, it’s good enough for me”. That put a lump in my throat. Hope you and Hercules are enjoying each other again!!!

[@SmellTheCanvis]

"Fame, if you win it, comes and goes in a minute" Man, this guy is a walking poetry machine

[@pika23]

He's a poet and he actually knows it. I remember his poet frisbees. And he wore the mortar board and was called the genius

[@ppiorkowski1502]

@@pika23 he's kind of a strange kat but good dude and very smart. Probably the intellectually smartest wrestler of all time.

[@EclecticBuddha]

Here's the best part. If you dig up some obscure poem he did one time and give him the first line, he will probably finish it from memory. Also, through a combination of flexibility and length, he was capable of putting his head in his own lap, so to speak.

[@MountaineerStacker]

@@EclecticBuddha i remember seeing Lanny as the Poet Wrestler in the early 90’s. I wish i could have seen him blow himself. Id pay to see it.

[@mikeg2491]

@@pika23 he was very underrated as the genius, it seemed sillier or boring at the time as a kid when you had these comic book giants to look up to instead, but 30 years later now as an adults it holds up better as a mature gimmick while we now make fun of Terry Taylor in chicken suits, repo men or guys like Nailz in a prison garb.

I genuinely miss Randy Savages presence in the world.

Saw him live against Hogan after the Wrestlemania run in Calgary Alberta Canada

Me too his energy and intensity was so awesome!

[@downwithputinsaveukraine1313]

I ran into him constantly when I was in college. Nearly 20 years ago now. Was a genuinely nice and polite guy, didn't have the attitude he was better than everyone else or should be treated special. No trace of arrogance or conceit in that man. He had a clean soul.

[@cristianocollado2948]

No he’s going to speak bad every chance

i was lucky to meet randy at a nitro in 97. such a nice dude. i said thank you for all the great matches and great interviews he gave us all. and you could tell he was so thankful to hear that a 18 year old fan liked his stuff. mach man will never be forgotten in my house!

[@maplebear6527]

I was 10 years old in 1997 and wrestling was becoming my favorite thing in the world. For about 4 years or so i loved WCW and Randy was by far my favorite of all time. I used to rent the old Wrestlemania VHS's so i could watch his old matches. About the time Randy got screwed out the the belt in 2000 was about the time was starting to not watch it at all. By 2001 i wasn't the least bit interested in it.

OhhYeAHHHHHH

I think Randy was Lanny's hero, but what a good one to have.👍The love he has for him is the most pure and genuine thing I have seen, R.I.P Macho.

[@Robocoppat]

His voice is so calming. When he was speaking and telling of his brothers wishes, it brought tears to my eyes. I haven't cried in a long time, but after listening to what Lanny had to say, I broke down and let go. May God watch over Lanny and his family. Thank You....

[@scypsylock9402]

Lanny is without a doubt such a genuine good soul. This world could use more brothers, more people like him. That made me shed tears which I am not known to do at all. Such a great guy showing love for his brother and shared his wish with his sister in-law. That is a true brother right there and I'm certain Randy was smiling all the way from the Golden Gates above!

[@jasonstinebaugh8447]

I was a huge Randy Savage fan! My eldest brother got me into pro wrestling when I was a young kid. My brother died five years ago last month. He would have been 55 on the 22nd of this month. I miss my brother and I miss The Macho Man! Deepest sympathy to The Genius Lanny Poffo.

[@LtRee96se]

God bless you for loving your brother like Lanny did Randy. We need more like you in the world.

Lol, i agree.

[@Anthony-ou2ok]

That is why he is the Genius

Leaping Lanny Poffo, I remember watching you, and Randy when I was a kid. Thank you, and your late brother for all the great entertainment you brought to us.

[@JeffreyJetsKohut]

We as fans never got to show our appreciation for all the work Randy Savage did for wrestling.

[@tehf00n]

We did. By buying his sell. By turning up to the main events. By watching the shoots and the shows. Macho Man always knew the fans loved him.

[@ppiorkowski1502]

@Jeffrey Kohut I'm not sure what you mean? @teh00n nailed it on the money. Without the fans Macho Man doesn't exist. He will forever be in our hearts.

We love you, Lanny. Such a wonderful brother. Not enough time for his fans either. God bless you.

[@tehf00n]

Randy was unique. Lanny is a gent. RIP Macho Man.

Deleted..Why? Great scene. And yeah no other superstar will ever come close to the intensity in their promos like Machoman..Youd literally feel the energy.

[@tonynorris1506]

There is an interview here on KZbin with Randy wearing a red shirt and shades, sitting down, and he's completely being himself w/ NO gimmick at all! He keeps complimenting the interviewer for knowing his stuff and was just laid back and cool/calm... One of the only interviews that I've seen where Randy is being 100% himself, and it shows the good hearted/intellectual side of Randy that other wrestlers always talk about when they speak on him being a perfectionist and a laid back guy outside of work.

Randy would deepen his voice in order to do the Macho Man voice. Eventually it became so natural to him that he would always talk that way. Lanny's mentioned a few times that Randy's voice that we heard didn't always sound that way.

[@theseeker7711]

His energy is still here in a lot of us.When I think back to my childhood and all the weekend shows and the ppvs.How live that was.Somethings you think on and your mind can go back and you can get lost in those moments because the imprint of that energy is still there.Orndorff was my first favorite.I loved Bret,Austin,Benoit,Angle and Eventually Shawn.Last 2 Favs before I stopped watching was AJ Styles and The Boss but Savage 85-89 was my favorite all time wrestler.Intensity and charisma was off the meter.During the Monday night war era the bad guys were kinda popular but in the 80s you were a heel or a face and most of the time the fans fell in line with what you were.Savage was so good at the height of his heeldom that fans were liked him despite him treating Liz awful.I remember this wrestling magazine called Wrestling Eye had him on the cover”Wrestling’s most popular bad guy”like I said rare.I think maybe the Horsemen also achieved that love hate also
