Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:02,035 --> 00:00:05,772
- Oh, yeah.
2
00:00:05,839 --> 00:00:08,242
- Never before had two words
capture the imagination of
3
00:00:08,308 --> 00:00:11,512
audiences worldwide and bred
such a global phenomenon.
4
00:00:12,045 --> 00:00:14,448
- Here he is, the one and only
"Macho Man" Randy Savage
5
00:00:14,514 --> 00:00:15,549
and Elizabeth.
6
00:00:16,383 --> 00:00:18,385
- With the larger than life
personality,
7
00:00:18,452 --> 00:00:22,456
electrifying outfits, and
undeniable athleticism.
8
00:00:22,556 --> 00:00:25,592
There was never anyone quite
like the Macho Man.
9
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:29,363
- But the cream will rise to the
top.
10
00:00:29,429 --> 00:00:30,397
Oh yeah.
11
00:00:30,464 --> 00:00:33,000
- Today we look back at the very
12
00:00:33,066 --> 00:00:34,201
best of the "Macho Man"
Randy Savage.
13
00:00:34,268 --> 00:00:37,671
- The "Macho Man" Randy Savage
Lord and master of the ring.
14
00:00:37,738 --> 00:00:40,874
- This is WWE's Greatest
Moments.
15
00:00:41,275 --> 00:00:42,876
- Ooh, Yeah.
16
00:00:45,445 --> 00:00:47,047
- Acknowledge me.
17
00:00:47,114 --> 00:00:48,248
- My God.
18
00:00:48,315 --> 00:00:49,716
- Stone Cold with a beer bath.
19
00:00:49,783 --> 00:00:50,617
- Ah.
20
00:00:50,717 --> 00:00:52,953
- This is surreal.
21
00:00:53,020 --> 00:00:53,921
- Look at this.
22
00:00:53,987 --> 00:00:55,188
- He slammed him.
23
00:01:01,428 --> 00:01:03,797
- Welcome, everyone, to WWE's
Greatest Moments.
24
00:01:03,864 --> 00:01:05,699
I'm Michael Cole, and on this
edition,
25
00:01:05,799 --> 00:01:07,467
we're looking back at the
illustrious career
26
00:01:07,534 --> 00:01:11,905
of one of the all time greats,
the "Macho Man" Randy Savage.
27
00:01:12,005 --> 00:01:15,042
No matter where you go, everyone
does a Macho Man impression.
28
00:01:15,108 --> 00:01:17,444
- Ooh yeah, dig-
29
00:01:17,511 --> 00:01:19,513
Oh, damn it, that's not it
either.
30
00:01:19,580 --> 00:01:21,381
- I'll get mine out of the way
now.
31
00:01:21,481 --> 00:01:23,350
Ooh, yeah.
32
00:01:23,450 --> 00:01:26,486
Okay, so no one can really
come close to his essence,
33
00:01:26,553 --> 00:01:27,955
but it's understandable.
34
00:01:28,021 --> 00:01:30,157
As the spokesperson for Slim Jim
35
00:01:30,223 --> 00:01:33,427
and a memorable role in the box
office smash Spider-Man.
36
00:01:33,493 --> 00:01:35,095
Savage embodied the very
definition
37
00:01:35,195 --> 00:01:36,697
of the word "Superstar."
38
00:01:36,797 --> 00:01:38,865
- Nothing stops the "Macho Man"
Randy Savage,
39
00:01:38,865 --> 00:01:40,600
I am the Lord and
master of the ring.
40
00:01:40,667 --> 00:01:42,869
- But with all those tremendous
Hall of Fame accolades,
41
00:01:42,869 --> 00:01:44,638
the Macho Man couldn't
do it alone.
42
00:01:46,506 --> 00:01:50,644
Upon his debut in 1985, all the
WWE managers were lined up
43
00:01:50,711 --> 00:01:54,348
ready to guide the career
of WWE's newest sensation.
44
00:01:54,348 --> 00:01:57,718
But it was who he chose that had
the world buzzing.
45
00:02:02,155 --> 00:02:07,461
- The man who is in demand by
wrestling managers galore.
46
00:02:07,461 --> 00:02:09,863
The number one free agent,
47
00:02:09,930 --> 00:02:13,900
Randy "Macho Man" Savage.
48
00:02:15,836 --> 00:02:17,771
- When Randy came in,
49
00:02:17,838 --> 00:02:19,306
they had the bidding
and they had the
50
00:02:19,406 --> 00:02:23,310
competition for what manager was
going to manage the Macho Man.
51
00:02:23,310 --> 00:02:26,613
They had Bobby Heenan, you had
Mr. Fuji, Fred Blassie,
52
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,248
Lou Albano, all these different
managers
53
00:02:28,315 --> 00:02:31,885
that were vying to manage
the Macho Man.
54
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:37,324
- Right behind that door right
now
55
00:02:37,391 --> 00:02:42,262
is the Macho Man's new manager.
56
00:02:42,329 --> 00:02:43,063
- Oh.
57
00:02:43,130 --> 00:02:45,198
Oh, goodness.
58
00:02:45,265 --> 00:02:46,233
- Oh, my.
59
00:02:46,299 --> 00:02:47,668
What is this some movie star?
60
00:02:47,734 --> 00:02:48,902
Who is this?
61
00:02:49,002 --> 00:02:51,672
- There was this beautiful woman
dressed in an evening gown.
62
00:02:51,672 --> 00:02:53,473
No one knew who the hell she
was.
63
00:02:54,341 --> 00:02:56,043
- Look at the smile.
64
00:02:56,576 --> 00:02:59,046
That is a gorgeous, gorgeous
lady.
65
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,449
- His girlfriend is his manager.
66
00:03:02,516 --> 00:03:06,186
Well, that makes him more
human than a King Kong Bundy
67
00:03:06,186 --> 00:03:07,387
or an Andre the Giant,
68
00:03:07,387 --> 00:03:09,022
or these larger than life
villains.
69
00:03:09,022 --> 00:03:10,791
- It was a real storyline.
70
00:03:10,857 --> 00:03:12,192
That's why it worked.
71
00:03:13,026 --> 00:03:21,234
- The Macho Man introducing the
managers to his current manager.
72
00:03:22,669 --> 00:03:27,708
- She was very stark contrast to
the Macho Man,
73
00:03:27,774 --> 00:03:30,710
and Elizabeth captured
the audience's attention.
74
00:03:31,578 --> 00:03:33,880
- We're gonna have to find out a
lot more about this lady.
75
00:03:36,349 --> 00:03:39,019
- Macho Madness was indeed
sweeping the nation
76
00:03:39,119 --> 00:03:41,621
very early on in his WWE career.
77
00:03:41,621 --> 00:03:43,824
- Macho Madness, ooh yeah.
78
00:03:43,824 --> 00:03:45,525
All around the world.
79
00:03:45,592 --> 00:03:46,526
Yeah.
80
00:03:46,593 --> 00:03:47,961
- And it was his iconic voice
that captured
81
00:03:48,028 --> 00:03:49,262
the attention of the viewers.
82
00:03:49,329 --> 00:03:51,832
- I think they're scared to
death.
83
00:03:52,466 --> 00:03:55,035
- And his creativity was unlike
any one of the era.
84
00:03:57,904 --> 00:03:59,239
- My special guest,
perhaps one of the most
85
00:03:59,306 --> 00:04:00,507
talked about men
in the ranks
86
00:04:00,607 --> 00:04:03,810
of the World Wrestling
-- this week-
87
00:04:03,877 --> 00:04:05,278
-every week, for that matter.
88
00:04:05,679 --> 00:04:07,214
- He was a delight to interview
89
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:08,748
because he had a lot
of fun doing it.
90
00:04:08,815 --> 00:04:10,083
His knack for spontaneity.
91
00:04:10,584 --> 00:04:12,219
He was very
good off the cuff.
92
00:04:12,752 --> 00:04:15,255
- Ooh yeah, you know what I'm
reading right now?
93
00:04:15,355 --> 00:04:18,925
Yeah, I'm reading yesterday's
newspaper.
94
00:04:18,992 --> 00:04:23,096
And that's Hulk Hogan and Tito
Santana all rolled into one.
95
00:04:23,196 --> 00:04:24,030
Yeah.
96
00:04:24,097 --> 00:04:26,233
- Like he had just started with
WWE,
97
00:04:26,299 --> 00:04:27,768
and he's already
going for the top.
98
00:04:27,834 --> 00:04:29,102
He is calling out Hulk Hogan.
99
00:04:29,202 --> 00:04:31,071
- I'm talking about intensity
and I'm talking about
100
00:04:31,138 --> 00:04:35,709
Macho Madness, and I'm talking
about the rest of 1985.
101
00:04:35,776 --> 00:04:36,910
Yeah.
102
00:04:36,977 --> 00:04:39,646
- You put him in front of
a camera and let him go crazy.
103
00:04:39,713 --> 00:04:41,181
The Macho Man, there's nobody
like him.
104
00:04:41,281 --> 00:04:44,951
- I'm talking about the rest of
the 80s leading into the 90s.
105
00:04:45,018 --> 00:04:46,219
Yeah.
106
00:04:46,319 --> 00:04:50,190
And then I'm talking about going
all the way into the year 2000.
107
00:04:50,257 --> 00:04:53,326
And all the way into the
Twilight Zone.
108
00:04:53,393 --> 00:04:54,461
Yeah.
109
00:04:54,461 --> 00:04:56,062
- You couldn't explain the Macho
Man.
110
00:04:56,129 --> 00:04:58,498
You had to see him to get him.
111
00:04:58,598 --> 00:05:02,035
- Momentum, Macho Madness going
down and gathering momentum.
112
00:05:02,636 --> 00:05:05,172
- You hung on to every word
because he was so committed
113
00:05:05,238 --> 00:05:07,674
and believed every word he said.
114
00:05:07,741 --> 00:05:08,475
- It is rough.
115
00:05:08,542 --> 00:05:09,142
Yeah.
116
00:05:09,242 --> 00:05:10,544
Wrestling is a rough sport,
117
00:05:10,644 --> 00:05:12,546
and I am the roughest
one in the sport.
118
00:05:12,646 --> 00:05:16,082
I am the number one wrestler in
the world today.
119
00:05:20,187 --> 00:05:22,756
- "Macho Man" Randy Savage was
always a key player wherever he
120
00:05:22,822 --> 00:05:26,760
went and when he made his WCW
debut, it was no different.
121
00:05:26,826 --> 00:05:30,263
In 1997, Savage was riding high
atop World Championship
122
00:05:30,263 --> 00:05:32,632
Wrestling as part of the New
World Order.
123
00:05:32,699 --> 00:05:35,836
Macho Man had his sights set on
one superstar in particular
124
00:05:35,902 --> 00:05:37,370
Diamond Dallas Page.
125
00:05:38,238 --> 00:05:40,207
- Diamond Dallas Page.
126
00:05:40,273 --> 00:05:43,143
He doesn't want to feel the
Madness anymore.
127
00:05:43,243 --> 00:05:48,515
- Savage, you are a dead man
walking.
128
00:05:48,949 --> 00:05:51,117
- The two were engulfed in a
rivalry that was
129
00:05:51,184 --> 00:05:52,519
as personal as it was violent.
130
00:05:52,953 --> 00:05:55,388
And at the Great American Bash,
things were just
131
00:05:55,455 --> 00:05:56,456
getting started.
132
00:06:00,227 --> 00:06:02,028
- Ladies and gentlemen,
it's the
133
00:06:02,095 --> 00:06:05,966
WCW Great American
Bash main event.
134
00:06:06,533 --> 00:06:10,637
- This falls count anywhere
match felt massive.
135
00:06:10,704 --> 00:06:13,974
- And the Anything Goes Savage
Page was on.
136
00:06:14,441 --> 00:06:16,009
- They're not going to walk out
of this thing tonight.
137
00:06:16,509 --> 00:06:19,112
- The energy for that match-
138
00:06:19,112 --> 00:06:21,314
It was awesome.
139
00:06:21,948 --> 00:06:23,149
- Oh.
140
00:06:23,149 --> 00:06:25,585
- We went out there and we just
kicked the ass,
141
00:06:25,652 --> 00:06:28,588
and he made me fight from
underneath the whole way.
142
00:06:30,023 --> 00:06:32,559
- It felt as you were watching-
143
00:06:32,626 --> 00:06:37,364
Like Randy Savage and Diamond
Dallas Page had both decided-
144
00:06:37,430 --> 00:06:38,632
"Let's put everything into
this."
145
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,970
- He saw a man that was just as
hungry as he was
146
00:06:44,037 --> 00:06:48,808
ready, willing and able to
do anything it took.
147
00:06:48,875 --> 00:06:50,877
to jam the roof off that
place.
148
00:06:52,045 --> 00:06:52,712
- One.
149
00:06:52,712 --> 00:06:53,346
- Wow.
150
00:06:53,446 --> 00:06:54,014
- Two.
151
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:54,547
- Oh, man.
152
00:06:54,547 --> 00:06:55,715
- Three.
153
00:06:56,816 --> 00:07:00,186
- Two guys know exactly what
they're doing in the ring.
154
00:07:00,186 --> 00:07:01,187
Excellent workers.
155
00:07:01,254 --> 00:07:02,355
It was a great storyline.
156
00:07:02,422 --> 00:07:04,824
They worked great together.
157
00:07:04,824 --> 00:07:06,326
- We had a hell of a match.
158
00:07:06,393 --> 00:07:08,295
People loved that match.
159
00:07:08,395 --> 00:07:09,429
What a moment, man.
160
00:07:15,168 --> 00:07:17,270
- I am the greatest superstar
ever to step
161
00:07:17,270 --> 00:07:20,106
into that squared circle.
162
00:07:20,206 --> 00:07:23,410
- If there's one thing Macho Man
does best is get your attention.
163
00:07:23,476 --> 00:07:25,011
And that doesn't just ring true
for the audience.
164
00:07:25,779 --> 00:07:28,748
He could garner a response out
of his opponents as well.
165
00:07:28,748 --> 00:07:30,550
One example is the Ultimate
Warrior.
166
00:07:31,184 --> 00:07:31,952
- Wait, wait, no.
167
00:07:32,018 --> 00:07:33,787
- Oh, look at that.
168
00:07:33,853 --> 00:07:36,523
- After costing the Warrior his
WWE Championship.
169
00:07:36,589 --> 00:07:37,824
- Things got personal.
170
00:07:37,824 --> 00:07:39,259
- You, Macho King,
171
00:07:39,359 --> 00:07:41,027
have found the madness.
172
00:07:41,094 --> 00:07:44,631
I, Macho King, am the Wildness.
173
00:07:44,698 --> 00:07:47,801
- Ultimate Warrior,
I'm gonna take your career,
174
00:07:47,867 --> 00:07:51,271
and there ain't nothing that you
can do about it.
175
00:07:51,338 --> 00:07:52,806
Dig it.
176
00:07:52,872 --> 00:07:54,007
- Wrestlemania 7-
177
00:07:54,074 --> 00:07:57,043
Both superstars agreed to put
their careers on the line
178
00:07:57,110 --> 00:07:59,112
in one of the most
anticipated matches
179
00:07:59,179 --> 00:08:00,880
on the biggest
stage of them all.
180
00:08:04,117 --> 00:08:05,418
- Look at the Queen.
181
00:08:05,518 --> 00:08:07,387
- And all her
glory.
182
00:08:07,454 --> 00:08:08,722
- Is that the lovely Elizabeth?
183
00:08:08,788 --> 00:08:09,389
- It is.
184
00:08:09,456 --> 00:08:10,590
- That's what I thought.
185
00:08:10,657 --> 00:08:13,760
Everyone realizing the
magnitude of this one.
186
00:08:13,827 --> 00:08:15,662
- Working with Randy
was the best.
187
00:08:15,662 --> 00:08:17,831
He's the one that brought the
most out of me.
188
00:08:17,897 --> 00:08:20,867
- You're watching the end of the
Ultimate Warrior.
189
00:08:21,234 --> 00:08:23,603
- What a display here by the
Macho King.
190
00:08:24,237 --> 00:08:26,606
- Flying elbow off the top
rope.
191
00:08:26,940 --> 00:08:27,474
- No
192
00:08:27,474 --> 00:08:28,742
- No no no.
193
00:08:28,842 --> 00:08:30,310
- I don't believe it.
194
00:08:30,377 --> 00:08:31,511
- Wrestlemania 7-
195
00:08:31,578 --> 00:08:32,846
The Ultimate Warrior.
196
00:08:32,912 --> 00:08:34,114
Macho Man.
197
00:08:34,180 --> 00:08:36,449
One of the greatest matches of
all time.
198
00:08:36,816 --> 00:08:38,385
- Nobody's getting up from this.
199
00:08:38,585 --> 00:08:39,152
- No.
200
00:08:39,219 --> 00:08:39,753
- No.
201
00:08:39,819 --> 00:08:41,121
- No no no.
202
00:08:41,654 --> 00:08:44,324
- When I looked into my
hands like I'm asking the gods
203
00:08:44,391 --> 00:08:45,658
what the answer is.
204
00:08:46,059 --> 00:08:47,827
- Are the Warrior's getting a
message?
205
00:08:47,827 --> 00:08:49,462
It's not over for me.
206
00:08:49,462 --> 00:08:51,231
My destiny is to remain here.
207
00:08:52,098 --> 00:08:52,999
[bell rings]
208
00:08:53,066 --> 00:08:55,001
It's over.
209
00:08:55,068 --> 00:08:58,038
- After Queen Sherri realizes
that her meal ticket just lost a
210
00:08:58,104 --> 00:09:00,407
career ending match,
211
00:09:00,473 --> 00:09:02,242
she gets in the ring and just
starts
212
00:09:02,308 --> 00:09:04,411
throwing blows and punches.
213
00:09:04,477 --> 00:09:05,612
- Oh my God.
214
00:09:06,379 --> 00:09:07,447
Oh, look at Elizabeth.
215
00:09:07,514 --> 00:09:08,248
- What's she doing?
216
00:09:08,314 --> 00:09:09,916
- She's going over the
barricade.
217
00:09:09,983 --> 00:09:12,085
She couldn't take it anymore.
218
00:09:12,152 --> 00:09:13,019
- She loves him.
219
00:09:13,119 --> 00:09:14,754
- She's loved him from the
beginning.
220
00:09:15,588 --> 00:09:16,823
Tears flowing down-
221
00:09:16,890 --> 00:09:18,358
Oh, yes.
222
00:09:18,958 --> 00:09:22,062
He lost the match, but he got
something much more valuable-
223
00:09:23,863 --> 00:09:25,498
his woman.
224
00:09:27,934 --> 00:09:30,270
- Upon Savage's debut,
the lovely Elizabeth
225
00:09:30,270 --> 00:09:32,272
was always
by his side.
226
00:09:32,272 --> 00:09:34,808
And audiences were enthralled by
the dazzling duo.
227
00:09:36,076 --> 00:09:40,113
Finally, in 1991, the Macho Man
popped the question.
228
00:09:40,180 --> 00:09:43,116
- Elizabeth, will you
marry me?
229
00:09:44,617 --> 00:09:46,519
- Ooh, yeah.
230
00:09:46,586 --> 00:09:47,554
[crowd cheers]
231
00:09:47,620 --> 00:09:48,955
- Yee haw
232
00:09:49,022 --> 00:09:50,824
- Ooh, yeah.
233
00:09:50,890 --> 00:09:53,393
- We got us a wedding-
a wing ding.
234
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:55,695
- The honor of our presence was
requested
235
00:09:55,795 --> 00:09:57,197
for the wedding of the century,
236
00:09:57,263 --> 00:10:00,800
held at the only place befitting
such an extravagant affair.
237
00:10:00,867 --> 00:10:03,903
The world's most famous arena,
Madison Square Garden in the
238
00:10:04,003 --> 00:10:06,039
main event of SummerSlam.
239
00:10:10,076 --> 00:10:11,211
- What you're
about to see
240
00:10:11,277 --> 00:10:13,680
is one of the most sacred
moments we can have.
241
00:10:14,447 --> 00:10:16,049
- Like, isn't it crazy
that a wedding
242
00:10:16,116 --> 00:10:18,084
main evented SummerSlam?
243
00:10:18,585 --> 00:10:19,586
- Elizabeth,
244
00:10:19,686 --> 00:10:22,822
do you take this man as your
lawful wedded husband?
245
00:10:22,889 --> 00:10:24,057
- I will.
246
00:10:25,225 --> 00:10:28,027
Do you take this woman as your
lawful wedded wife?
247
00:10:28,094 --> 00:10:29,996
- Ooh yeah.
248
00:10:30,063 --> 00:10:32,398
[crowd cheers]
249
00:10:32,465 --> 00:10:36,102
- Elizabeth had been such a big
part of his life.
250
00:10:36,202 --> 00:10:39,806
- Now, I pronounce that you are
husband and wife.
251
00:10:39,873 --> 00:10:41,241
- It was beauty and the beast.
252
00:10:41,307 --> 00:10:42,675
They didn't go together.
253
00:10:42,742 --> 00:10:45,144
However, they paired perfectly
together.
254
00:10:45,912 --> 00:10:48,248
- You may now kiss the bride.
255
00:10:48,715 --> 00:10:51,217
- It's probably the first and
the last,
256
00:10:51,317 --> 00:10:54,821
and the only time that we've
seen a wrestling wedding
257
00:10:54,921 --> 00:10:56,990
go off without a hitch.
258
00:10:57,056 --> 00:10:59,125
Now is the greatest love story-
259
00:10:59,192 --> 00:11:00,827
Romeo and Juliet of all time.
260
00:11:01,628 --> 00:11:05,298
- What a night it's been at
SummerSlam.
261
00:11:05,398 --> 00:11:10,303
So long everybody.
262
00:11:10,303 --> 00:11:12,105
- As Intercontinental Champion,
the ego of "Macho Man"
263
00:11:12,205 --> 00:11:14,607
Randy Savage was at
an all time high.
264
00:11:15,275 --> 00:11:16,476
- "Macho Man" Randy Savage
265
00:11:16,476 --> 00:11:19,512
is the world's greatest
professional wrestler, yeah.
266
00:11:19,512 --> 00:11:21,314
- Savage was not only a master
in the ring,
267
00:11:21,381 --> 00:11:22,916
but on the microphone as well,
268
00:11:22,982 --> 00:11:26,152
famously adding props into
his iconic promos.
269
00:11:26,819 --> 00:11:29,489
- The cream will rise to the
top.
270
00:11:29,556 --> 00:11:30,390
Ooh, yeah.
271
00:11:30,456 --> 00:11:32,625
- Nothing was off limits.
272
00:11:32,625 --> 00:11:34,394
Not even a big cup of Joe.
273
00:11:36,863 --> 00:11:37,830
- "Macho Man" Randy Savage.
274
00:11:37,897 --> 00:11:39,365
Sarasota, Florida.
275
00:11:39,432 --> 00:11:40,400
Come on in.
276
00:11:40,466 --> 00:11:41,801
You're going to be defending
against "The Dragon,"
277
00:11:41,868 --> 00:11:42,468
Ricky Steamboat.
278
00:11:42,569 --> 00:11:43,369
What's the cup for?
279
00:11:43,436 --> 00:11:44,437
- Wrestlemania 3.
280
00:11:44,504 --> 00:11:45,772
Pontiac, Michigan.
281
00:11:45,838 --> 00:11:49,809
Yeah, 90,000 plus people
watching right there.
282
00:11:49,876 --> 00:11:52,946
And this is Ricky "The Dragon"
Steamboat's cup of coffee
283
00:11:53,046 --> 00:11:54,514
in the big time, yeah.
284
00:11:54,581 --> 00:11:56,950
Cup of coffee in the big
time.
285
00:11:56,950 --> 00:11:58,985
Because he'll never get closer
than now.
286
00:11:59,552 --> 00:12:00,987
- Cup of coffee in the big time.
287
00:12:00,987 --> 00:12:03,923
It's one of the best wrestling
promos ever.
288
00:12:03,990 --> 00:12:05,858
- Cup of coffee in the big time.
289
00:12:05,959 --> 00:12:06,960
- Cup of coffee.
290
00:12:07,026 --> 00:12:08,261
[laughing]
291
00:12:08,361 --> 00:12:10,430
You know, grabbing a little
prop there next to Mean Gene,
292
00:12:10,496 --> 00:12:12,699
you know, craft services was a
couple feet away.
293
00:12:12,799 --> 00:12:14,667
All that type of stuff is just
all ad lib.
294
00:12:14,667 --> 00:12:15,568
He was just brilliant.
295
00:12:16,669 --> 00:12:17,837
- I am the Intercontinental
Heavyweight Champion,
296
00:12:17,904 --> 00:12:21,074
- and I will remain the greatest
Intercontinental Heavyweight
297
00:12:21,074 --> 00:12:22,408
Champion of all time.
298
00:12:22,475 --> 00:12:24,744
- Cup of coffee, man, yeah.
299
00:12:25,511 --> 00:12:26,846
Man.
300
00:12:28,047 --> 00:12:28,881
- Wow, man.
301
00:12:28,948 --> 00:12:30,083
Freak out.
302
00:12:31,584 --> 00:12:33,586
- Macho Man was gaining fans and
momentum
303
00:12:33,653 --> 00:12:35,021
with his outlandish promos.
304
00:12:35,588 --> 00:12:38,324
- You can't handle the success
of The "Macho Man" Randy Savage.
305
00:12:38,391 --> 00:12:40,026
- But with the target on his
back,
306
00:12:40,093 --> 00:12:41,828
Randy would soon find
himself outnumbered
307
00:12:41,894 --> 00:12:44,163
by The Honky Tonk Man and the
Hart Foundation.
308
00:12:44,864 --> 00:12:46,599
- Unfortunately, there's no one
in the ring right now
309
00:12:46,666 --> 00:12:48,134
to save Randy Savage.
310
00:12:48,201 --> 00:12:49,535
- Ooh.
311
00:12:49,602 --> 00:12:50,970
- The quick thinking of his
manager,
312
00:12:51,037 --> 00:12:53,239
Elizabeth would lead
to an unlikely duo.
313
00:12:56,042 --> 00:12:57,710
- What brilliance
this lady has.
314
00:12:57,777 --> 00:12:59,479
What a presence of mind
to bring help.
315
00:12:59,545 --> 00:13:00,713
And help she has from.
316
00:13:00,713 --> 00:13:02,015
in the form of this
man,
317
00:13:02,081 --> 00:13:03,916
the World Wrestling -- champion.
318
00:13:04,717 --> 00:13:06,619
- You had these two bigger than
life characters-
319
00:13:06,719 --> 00:13:08,888
Colorful, but all of a sudden
when they came together,
320
00:13:08,955 --> 00:13:10,790
it was like something was
going to be unstoppable.
321
00:13:11,624 --> 00:13:12,525
- Look at that.
322
00:13:13,393 --> 00:13:15,428
Yes, they've had their
differences in the past,
323
00:13:15,428 --> 00:13:18,464
but the Macho Man is extending
the hand of friendship
324
00:13:18,531 --> 00:13:19,666
to the Hulkster.
325
00:13:19,666 --> 00:13:23,169
- I remember being like,
not able to believe it.
326
00:13:23,236 --> 00:13:24,671
Like, I really, I was
watching, I was like,
327
00:13:24,737 --> 00:13:27,674
"No, this, this can't happen."
328
00:13:28,474 --> 00:13:33,746
- We could be seeing the meeting
of the Madness and the Mania.
329
00:13:33,846 --> 00:13:35,081
- Yes, there it is.
330
00:13:35,948 --> 00:13:39,118
- When we went to shake hands,
we both just over animated it.
331
00:13:39,519 --> 00:13:40,987
And it was like the handshake
heard around the world.
332
00:13:41,988 --> 00:13:43,923
- I think everyone was
super excited about the fact
333
00:13:43,990 --> 00:13:46,559
that they were together, not
necessarily against each other.
334
00:13:46,626 --> 00:13:48,261
That added a different dimension
to the whole thing.
335
00:13:48,828 --> 00:13:52,432
- A magic moment in the annals
of sports history.
336
00:13:52,832 --> 00:13:53,833
Look at this.
337
00:13:54,434 --> 00:13:56,569
- To bring Randy and Hogan
together at that moment,
338
00:13:56,636 --> 00:13:59,205
with Hogan being as huge
of a character,
339
00:13:59,272 --> 00:14:01,874
and the impact he was having on
the industry,
340
00:14:01,941 --> 00:14:05,812
then have the two worlds come
together as the Mega Powers.
341
00:14:05,878 --> 00:14:07,413
- Unbelievable.
342
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,115
I'm still in a state of shock
right now.
343
00:14:09,115 --> 00:14:11,417
In fact, I don't think they're
going to be coming down
344
00:14:11,517 --> 00:14:13,686
for a long period of time, yeah.
345
00:14:13,753 --> 00:14:15,188
- It meant a lot to Randy.
346
00:14:15,188 --> 00:14:16,789
It is a career changer.
347
00:14:16,856 --> 00:14:18,624
It had changed Randy's career.
348
00:14:18,691 --> 00:14:19,959
- With the mega, yeah.
349
00:14:20,026 --> 00:14:21,260
The mega, yeah.
350
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:23,229
The Mega Powers, yeah.
351
00:14:23,229 --> 00:14:24,063
Mega Powers.
352
00:14:24,130 --> 00:14:25,098
Yeah.
353
00:14:26,833 --> 00:14:28,067
- If there was a title to be
held
354
00:14:28,167 --> 00:14:29,969
you can bet that "Macho Man"
Randy Savage
355
00:14:30,036 --> 00:14:31,704
had his eyes set on it.
356
00:14:31,804 --> 00:14:35,074
In 1989, the King of the Ring
crown was worn proudly by
357
00:14:35,074 --> 00:14:36,242
"Hacksaw" Jim Duggan.
358
00:14:37,343 --> 00:14:40,279
- We crown thee, King Hacksaw.
359
00:14:40,913 --> 00:14:42,515
- Just like a young lion cub.
360
00:14:42,515 --> 00:14:45,551
Randy Savage couldn't wait to be
king.
361
00:14:48,254 --> 00:14:51,224
- King Hacksaw Jim Duggan,
the Macho Man.
362
00:14:51,224 --> 00:14:53,659
The crown on the line.
363
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:55,394
- Oh, did you hear that?
364
00:14:56,162 --> 00:14:57,597
Got to be something in that
purse.
365
00:14:59,699 --> 00:15:02,402
- And Macho Man has won the
crown.
366
00:15:03,469 --> 00:15:08,241
- I now remove my mortarboard
and place it near my heart and
367
00:15:08,307 --> 00:15:12,612
thus proclaim you "Macho King"
Randy Savage.
368
00:15:14,380 --> 00:15:17,517
- Him being presented with this
almost ridiculous thing.
369
00:15:17,617 --> 00:15:19,952
King, he's going to wear a
crown.
370
00:15:20,386 --> 00:15:21,988
He was smart enough to know
371
00:15:21,988 --> 00:15:25,992
that he's elevating this and to
have it elevate him
372
00:15:26,058 --> 00:15:27,326
he has to go all in.
373
00:15:27,393 --> 00:15:28,127
- Bow.
374
00:15:28,194 --> 00:15:29,228
Bow.
375
00:15:29,228 --> 00:15:31,063
- He was bigger than life
character once again-
376
00:15:31,130 --> 00:15:32,665
Macho King.
377
00:15:32,665 --> 00:15:35,668
- I wear the crown for a real
good reason
378
00:15:35,768 --> 00:15:37,570
'cause I can't be beat.
379
00:15:38,004 --> 00:15:39,839
- Just brilliant character
stuff.
380
00:15:40,139 --> 00:15:44,477
It evolves him and extends an
already Hall of Fame career.
381
00:15:45,478 --> 00:15:48,080
- Kingdom of the Madness will
rule the World Wrestling
382
00:15:48,147 --> 00:15:51,784
-- forever and ever and
ever.
383
00:15:51,851 --> 00:15:53,553
Yeah.
384
00:15:57,957 --> 00:15:59,492
- Whether on the microphone or
in the ring,
385
00:15:59,492 --> 00:16:02,228
you did not want to be on the
opposing side of Randy Savage.
386
00:16:02,228 --> 00:16:04,897
One superstar who found that out
firsthand was
387
00:16:04,997 --> 00:16:06,599
Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat.
388
00:16:06,666 --> 00:16:08,201
After a vicious assault,
Steamboat
389
00:16:08,267 --> 00:16:10,436
was out of action for months.
390
00:16:10,436 --> 00:16:13,306
Upon his return, The Dragon
sought out to set the
391
00:16:13,406 --> 00:16:15,474
Kingdom of the Madness ablaze.
392
00:16:15,474 --> 00:16:18,244
In front of the largest
WrestleMania crowd of the era,
393
00:16:18,311 --> 00:16:21,347
"Macho Man" Randy Savage took on
Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat
394
00:16:21,447 --> 00:16:23,316
in an instant classic.
395
00:16:26,586 --> 00:16:28,955
- One of the biggest
confrontations of all time-
396
00:16:29,021 --> 00:16:30,590
Ricky "The Dragon"
Steamboat
397
00:16:30,656 --> 00:16:33,192
and his vendetta
for the Macho Man.
398
00:16:33,259 --> 00:16:37,129
- The perfect and
most hated bad guy
399
00:16:37,196 --> 00:16:39,832
versus the quintessential good
guy.
400
00:16:40,900 --> 00:16:42,668
- Deep arm drag by The Dragon.
401
00:16:43,102 --> 00:16:44,604
- Oh, look at that.
402
00:16:44,670 --> 00:16:45,471
- He's going after the throat.
403
00:16:45,571 --> 00:16:47,840
- He's going after the throat,
indeed.
404
00:16:47,907 --> 00:16:49,909
And The Dragon is out into the
ringside area.
405
00:16:51,143 --> 00:16:53,045
- You know, throughout
your wrestling career,
406
00:16:53,112 --> 00:16:55,147
you have guys that you take
a look at and you say,
407
00:16:55,248 --> 00:16:56,449
"Wow, the guy's a
great performer."
408
00:16:56,516 --> 00:16:58,518
And I had that feeling about
Randy.
409
00:16:59,151 --> 00:17:00,953
It was because of the ride that
we took everybody on
410
00:17:01,020 --> 00:17:03,189
with all the false finishes.
411
00:17:03,189 --> 00:17:04,423
All we wanted to do was steal
the show.
412
00:17:04,957 --> 00:17:07,159
- This 90,000 plus has gone
bananas.
413
00:17:07,226 --> 00:17:08,761
- No, his foot is on the rope.
414
00:17:08,828 --> 00:17:11,130
- This is one of the greatest
matches I've ever seen.
415
00:17:11,197 --> 00:17:12,965
- The match had such a
pace to it,
416
00:17:13,032 --> 00:17:15,034
we had to keep on our toes
417
00:17:15,034 --> 00:17:17,169
for both of us to be
on the same page.
418
00:17:17,236 --> 00:17:20,306
- Oh, inadvertently rammed right
into the referee.
419
00:17:20,406 --> 00:17:21,240
- It was just layer after layer
420
00:17:21,307 --> 00:17:23,075
of something happening in that
match
421
00:17:23,075 --> 00:17:24,644
that kept the
people's attention.
422
00:17:25,077 --> 00:17:27,346
- He's trying to get the bell
away from the timekeeper.
423
00:17:27,713 --> 00:17:28,948
Give me a break.
424
00:17:29,448 --> 00:17:29,949
- Look at that
425
00:17:30,049 --> 00:17:30,616
- Oh.
426
00:17:30,683 --> 00:17:31,584
- Flagrant interference.
427
00:17:31,584 --> 00:17:32,685
- George pushed him.
428
00:17:32,752 --> 00:17:35,888
Randy went in one direction and
the bell went the other.
429
00:17:35,955 --> 00:17:36,822
Pretty big moment.
430
00:17:36,923 --> 00:17:37,957
It was a game changer.
431
00:17:38,758 --> 00:17:40,726
- Small package by The Dragon.
432
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:42,061
- No.
433
00:17:42,161 --> 00:17:43,162
- He got him.
434
00:17:43,229 --> 00:17:47,400
- New Intercontinental champion,
435
00:17:47,466 --> 00:17:52,672
Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat.
436
00:17:53,272 --> 00:17:54,307
- Poetry in motion.
437
00:17:54,407 --> 00:17:57,276
That's what you had every time
that you saw Macho Man
438
00:17:57,343 --> 00:17:59,946
and Ricky "The Dragon"
Steamboat go at it.
439
00:18:00,046 --> 00:18:02,415
- The reigning Intercontinental
Heavyweight Champion,
440
00:18:02,481 --> 00:18:04,483
Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat.
441
00:18:04,550 --> 00:18:06,185
- I love it.
442
00:18:07,420 --> 00:18:09,789
- It is now time for our number
one moment.
443
00:18:09,789 --> 00:18:11,424
And it's the very pinnacle of
the legendary career
444
00:18:11,490 --> 00:18:13,559
of "Macho Man" Randy Savage.
445
00:18:13,626 --> 00:18:17,630
In 1988, the WWE Championship
was vacant and the world was
446
00:18:17,697 --> 00:18:21,067
watching WrestleMania 4 when
a 14 man tournament
447
00:18:21,133 --> 00:18:23,402
was held to determine
the new champion.
448
00:18:23,469 --> 00:18:25,204
Macho Man had quite the
afternoon,
449
00:18:25,271 --> 00:18:27,873
first by defeating Butch Reed,
450
00:18:27,873 --> 00:18:30,376
then Greg "The Hammer"
Valentine,
451
00:18:30,443 --> 00:18:33,112
finally the One Man Gang.
452
00:18:33,112 --> 00:18:35,281
- "Macho Man" Randy Savage over
the One Man Gang.
453
00:18:35,348 --> 00:18:37,316
So that is your final, the one
we've been thinking about.
454
00:18:37,383 --> 00:18:39,218
- With the Million Dollar Man,
Ted DiBiase,
455
00:18:39,318 --> 00:18:40,953
awaiting him in the finals.
456
00:18:41,020 --> 00:18:43,089
- I will go on
457
00:18:43,155 --> 00:18:46,626
to my destiny of being the
undisputed
458
00:18:46,692 --> 00:18:48,995
World Wrestling --
Heavyweight Champion.
459
00:18:49,829 --> 00:18:52,665
- Could Randy Savage win an
unprecedented four matches in
460
00:18:52,665 --> 00:18:55,134
one night to become champion?
461
00:18:57,770 --> 00:19:01,440
- This is the final match of our
tournament to determine the
462
00:19:01,507 --> 00:19:05,811
undisputed World Wrestling
-- Heavyweight Champion.
463
00:19:05,878 --> 00:19:08,547
- You can feel the electricity
in the air.
464
00:19:09,048 --> 00:19:10,316
- There have been so
many roadblocks
465
00:19:10,316 --> 00:19:12,885
as Randy Savage ascended
the ladder.
466
00:19:13,519 --> 00:19:16,222
And I think a real turning point
in his career
467
00:19:16,322 --> 00:19:18,991
was at WrestleMania
4 in Atlantic City.
468
00:19:20,493 --> 00:19:21,427
- Nice move.
469
00:19:21,494 --> 00:19:22,728
Oh, look at that.
470
00:19:22,795 --> 00:19:24,030
- Randy, impressed me.
471
00:19:24,030 --> 00:19:25,164
He was all business.
472
00:19:25,231 --> 00:19:26,899
He did his job and he did it
well.
473
00:19:26,999 --> 00:19:29,201
And I enjoyed working with him
thoroughly.
474
00:19:31,804 --> 00:19:35,107
- I'd say the cards are stacked
against the Macho Man right now.
475
00:19:35,207 --> 00:19:36,308
- They really are.
476
00:19:37,143 --> 00:19:38,110
Macho Man beat him-
477
00:19:38,110 --> 00:19:39,311
- Oh, he caught him.
478
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:42,481
Look at Savage going to the
outside.
479
00:19:45,518 --> 00:19:46,786
Savage a flying elbow.
480
00:19:47,219 --> 00:19:48,554
Hooks the leg.
481
00:19:48,621 --> 00:19:49,422
It's over.
482
00:19:49,522 --> 00:19:50,356
[crowd cheers]
483
00:19:50,423 --> 00:19:51,590
[bell rings]
484
00:19:51,657 --> 00:19:52,825
- It was probably one of the
best matches,
485
00:19:52,825 --> 00:19:54,460
I think, that I ever had.
486
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:58,164
There are some guys in our
business who just gel real well.
487
00:19:58,230 --> 00:20:00,166
Randy and I had that chemistry.
488
00:20:00,633 --> 00:20:02,268
- We have a new champion.
489
00:20:03,235 --> 00:20:05,438
- That night elevated Randy to
the great heights
490
00:20:05,504 --> 00:20:07,206
of superstardom.
491
00:20:07,273 --> 00:20:08,774
He was living his dream.
492
00:20:08,841 --> 00:20:10,976
- This is Macho Man's finest
hour.
493
00:20:14,580 --> 00:20:16,515
- In a career that spanned four
decades,
494
00:20:16,582 --> 00:20:18,117
multiple world championships
495
00:20:18,184 --> 00:20:20,152
and incredible mainstream
popularity,
496
00:20:20,219 --> 00:20:23,722
"Macho Man" Randy Savage will
truly go down as a superstar
497
00:20:23,789 --> 00:20:26,759
who redefined the very nature of
professional wrestling.
498
00:20:27,426 --> 00:20:29,428
Well, that'll do it
for this edition
499
00:20:29,428 --> 00:20:30,329
of WWE's Greatest Moments.
500
00:20:30,396 --> 00:20:31,664
I hope you've enjoyed
this look back
501
00:20:31,664 --> 00:20:33,966
at the very best of
one of the biggest icons this
502
00:20:34,033 --> 00:20:35,601
industry has ever seen.
503
00:20:35,668 --> 00:20:38,504
The one and only
"Macho Man" Randy Savage.
