Used to be a huge wrestling fan, and Savage was one of my favorites. Little late in posting this as he passed on May 20, but I wanted to pay my respects to one of my favorites in the business.
From Wiki: "On the morning of May 20, 2011, Savage died in a single vehicle automobile accident while driving on a street in Seminole, Florida, a town on the Pinellas County side of the Tampa Bay area.[101] He was 58 years old. It was suspected he may have had a heart attack, which led to his losing control of the vehicle and crashing into a tree. His wife Lynn was also in the automobile but received only minor injuries. This report was later confirmed by Savage's brother, Lanny Poffo.[6][102] An autopsy revealed no "extensive trauma" and was inconclusive in establishing a cause of death; histology and toxicology tests have been ordered."

I'm still into wrestling on an occasional basis, but I love old school wrestling. My favorite was always Ric Flair. Loved the look and the robes and all. His time in the NWA was epic.

yep they all seem to die of heart related issues dont they?? unless they are buthering their families and committing suicides a la Chris Benoit style.
My fave is Shawn Michaels (sigh)... have been in love with that man since 1994, and I must say that thankfully he gets better with age! i remember pining away for like 3 years after he damaged his back fighting against the Undertaker in a cage match, obviously he could nt fight, but then he was made some kind of authority figure and slowly worked his way back.

My wife likes him too. He's OK, I like the guys that can work a good match. But, I can see why the ladies like him.
