    I would have bet the house that he was already dead. Go figure.

    It's a really big deal.

    Probably the second most famous wrestler from the 1980s (only behind Hogan).

    I haven't watched one second of wrestling since the late 1980s, but Savage was one of the most popular and most mainstream who was out there at the time.

    He wanted to get to the front of the line at the Pearly Gates before the big rush following the 21st. This is really sad...

    Hadn't seen him in years, but one of the all-time great heels, he was involved in some great feuds. His match with Steamboat at WM 3 was one of the best I have ever seen. Met Savage once at a Coliseum Video party years ago. He was awesome, one of the great moments of my life.

    RIP
