I don't know about all of you, but I grew up loving Randy Savage. He was easily my favorite of the major late-80s/early-90s stars (even more than Hulk Hogan). It's a real shame that his life ended this way, but at least he got to see his late fifties unlike so many other pro wrestlers.

I like Savage also.

I grew up where the American Wrestling Association (AWA) got its start, watching:
Verne Gagne
Nick Bockwinkel
"The Crusher" Reginald Lisowski- **My favorite character
Mad Dog Vachon
Baron Von Raschke
Road Warriors
Ray "The Crippler" Stevens
Jesse Ventura
Bobby "The Brain" Heenan

Very sad!

And I just left Tampa a couple days ago. Small world.

Hey B-Cad, what was Bobby Heenan like as a wrestler? He was amazing as a heel manager and announcer, but I never saw him in the ring.

Haynie, You're correct sir, he did not wrestle.
I just liked his persona in the ring and with the mic.....
