Anyone that votes less than 10 should log off the forum and never return because you clearly don’t know wrestling

Pinyapplesuckas · Oct 3, 2018

He's at the top of the list in all categories

Savage had every quality you can think of. Don't even need to go into much detail. Loved him as a kid, loved his feud with DDP, and his finisher.

Hell, I'd give him a 20/10 just for flat out assaulting Evan Karagias while being dripped head to toe in leather

Hit that bum with 3 Flying Elbows and Piledrived the referee :dead:

CM_Burns · Oct 3, 2018

10. Probably a 10 in all categories. Since we just rated him, he had a better WCW run than Chris Jericho.

The Rainmaker · Oct 3, 2018

I'm gonna neg whoever doesn't give him a 10

-Mic work/promos
Are you kidding me? Didn't matter if he was heel or face, macho was spittin hot fire...them coked out 80s promos :whew:

they were out there brother..randy was no slouch on the mic
full monty

-Personality/gimmicks
macho man or macho king...dude was gold...dude was intensity x 1000...a pure original......"Pomp and Circumstance"...nuff said...full monty

-Ring work (along with some of your favorite matches/feuds)
an ATG in the ring...great to classic matches with the likes of Ricky Steamboat, Hulk Hogan, Ultimate Warrior, Ric Flair, Tito Santana, Ted Dibiase, Shawn Michaels, Jake the Snake, DDP, shyt even Crush ...dude's combination of high flying and high impact brawling, as well as being extremely competent on the mat was damn near flawless..the crazy thing is he was having these type of matches well into his late 40s...it took years for him to fall off...greatest flying elbow drop in wrestling history - it was a pleasure to have been able to see him live on many occasions - full monty

-Overall rating (which doesn't have to be an average of the above scores)
Point Blank macho man is one of the greatest wrestlers of all time...and prolly one of the few that you can say had no real weaknesses as a wrestler if at all...Well he did peddle those slim jims which the one time i tried it i spit it out...shyt was gross..so thats a slight against him i guess :russ:

...its really a shame Vince and him couldn't mend the fences fully and the last appearance we got of him was in the WWE All Stars video game commercial. The WWE "Hall of Fame" was screaming for one last appearance from him. It was a sad day when he passed. There was no one like him. OOOHHHH YEAH!!!!!

Conscious Pilot · Oct 3, 2018

I was born in 89 and could recognize that greatness as a young mark. Even though he was portrayed inferior to Hoegan, the talent from mic work, crowd connection, workrate, showmanship shined through.

Top 3 dead or alive :wow:
