65 years ago, a Savage was born in Columbus

Some of you may call him a legend, some of you may call him the greatest wrestler of all time, and some of you may call him a friend. Regardless, the lunatic known around the world as Macho Man Randy Savage was in fact a savage, born right here in Columbus, Ohio.

Today would’ve been his 65 birthday so everyone, grab a ridiculous pair of shades a give a big “Ohhhh yeah!” in honor of the fallen icon.

Here’s some random videos and facts about Macho Man, the cream of the crop.

Fun fact #1 Young Randy almost made it in Major League Baseball

Fun fact #2 His mother coined the term “Macho Man”

Fun Fact #3 Two years ago, a group of people from Columbus put together a petition for a Macho Man statue to be constructed in downtown Columbus. Seems like it kind of lost steam..
