I'm 43 as well man. Looking back on our childhood compared to what exists in the world now. I would say the 80s and 90s were a far better time, in so many ways.

Me too. Same exact age as you. Wrestling was better back then. The only corny thing was they would usually have a match with a star and some unknown dude. They would save the big matches. For me the promos were the best part. I just can’t even watch these days, it lacks colorful cartoon like characters that it had back in the day. I’d watch again if it was like this. I met Jake the Snake at a charity event a few years ago, met Lita and Kurt Angle too. Lita was a sweetheart, Kurt was a nice man and Jake the Snake was the dude.

43 year old, checking into the club here. We are...the cream of the crop. But 43 will only be a cup a coffee, as next year we all will be 44. On balance, off balance, it doesn't matter, we're better than other ages.
"I'm erasing your face right now...your face doesn't exist...the words you say have no meaning and have no rhyme." Absolutely epic gold promo.

There is something almost Shakespearian about Randy Savage's delivery. The rhythm and the pacing. His pitch and control. It just draws you in. "TO-MARROW and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty pace, from day TO day, TO THE LAST SYLLABLE of recorded time,oh yeah; And ALL our yesterdays have lighted fools, let me tell yah yeah The way TO DUSTY Death. OUT, OUT, brief candle! Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player, That struts and frets his hour upon the stage, yeah And then is heard no more. It is a TALE, a tale LET me tell ya Told by an idiot, like Mr Jack Tunney, full of SOUND AND FURY, Signifying nothing, and nothing means nothing Whoa to YEE who thinks the MACHO MAN is letting the intercontinental championship slip through his hands this weekend.

"you've had your warning.....you've had 2 warnings" i dont know why, but it just sounded sinister coming from Savage.
Just think, Macho Man was almost a catcher for the St. Louis Cardinals. I'm glad he didn't make the cut and became the coolest wrestler ever. Just a complete genius personality.

Legend says that if you ever hit a small dose of what macho man used to get, you can die. Only macho man can take it and survive Savage
that line-up that the TV announcer was saying was nuclear what a card for back in those days.
Macho Man walking back and forth is classic, can't stop laughing 😂😂😂😂
nothing better than macho madness. ...ohhhh yeahhhhh
Who else could come out with a towel over their head and still be so entertaining.

I miss him so bad. His promos were nuts and always made me feel good.
