Legendary wrestler Randy Savage, known to fans as "Macho Man," died in a car accident in Tampa, Fla., on Friday, according to TMZ. He was 58.
According to the Florida Highway Patrol, Savage was driving his Jeep Wrangler when he veered across a concrete median, through oncoming traffic, and "collided head-on with a tree." He was transported to Largo Medical Center, where he died. Savage's wife of one year, Lynn, was a passenger but sustained only minor injuries, according to TMZ.
Savage's brother, Lanny Poffo told TMZ that the wrestler suffered a heart attack while he was driving and then lost control of the vehicle.
Savage joined the World Wrestling Federation in 1985 and became a star with the catchphrase "ooooooh yeaaaahhh."

Aw man, that really sucks and today of all days!
I will step into a Slim Jim in his honor.
So it's been rumoured for years that Macho Man slept with an underage Stephanie McMahon back in the day which is why he has been snubbed from the WWE hall of fame despite being one of the most popular and recognized wrestlers in the world. My theory is that Vince McMahon realized that not including Savage made the whole Hall of Fame a complete joke. Therefore he murdered him so that we he can finally be inducted next year and Vince got to exact his revenge.
