Randy ‘Macho Man’ Savage Dies In Car Crash

Wrestling legend Randy “Macho Man” Savage died in a hospital on Friday, from injuries he sustained after he lost control of his Jeep Wrangler and crashed it into a tree in Pinellas County.

He was 58.

Savage, whose real name is Randy Mario Poffo, is the son of wrestler Angelo Poffo and brother to Lanny “The Genius” Poffo, also a wrestler.

He is survived by his wife Barbara L Poffo, 56, who made it through the crash with minor injuries.

Police reports said the couple was wearing seatbelts when the accident occurred.

One of the most flamboyant personalities in wrestling, Savage made a name for himself in the 80s with his unique nickname Macho Man, catchphrase “Oooh, Yeah!” and over-the-top sense of style.
