Suprised that there was only a brief memorial to Spider-Man. Buzzsaw in Spiderman 1 was definitely a nod to "The Macho Man". The voice, the strut, it is quintessential '80's. The news of his death gave me a weird flashback to my own youth. I have not watched wrestling in years but did watch it back in the day when Randy Savage, Rowdy Roddy Piper, Hulk Hoglan, etc. were the villains. My dad used to take me and my bros whenever the WWF would come to town and it was always special occasion. My father has been deceased for 17 years now and these events stir up sentimental but good memories for me...RIP

My son is 8 and has a great knowledge of past and present wrestlers. I believe he was more shaken up by it than I was. Hate to hear this.Chalwa AKA The Pre-Crisis Chris

Hulk Hogan via his Twitter account @HulkHogan4Real
"I'm completely devastated, after over 10 years of not talking with Randy, we finally started to talk and communicate. He had so much life in his eyes & in his spirit, I just pray that he's happy and in a better place and we miss him. We miss him a lot. I feel horrible about the ten years of having no communication. This was a tough one. I just pray that Randy's happy and in a better place and we miss him."
And even though I can't stand Jeff Jarrett here's what he said:
TNA Founder Jeff Jarrett via his Twitter @JeffJarrettTNA
"Just got a call with the news. RIP Randy. I met him when I was 11yrs old. He would always teach, correct, encourage, and compliment as my career progressed. I have NEVER forgotten the intricacies and attention to detail he taught me over the years. Randy always had a method to his madness. Randy is gone, but will never be forgotten. Thoughts and prayers are with the entire Poffo family."Last edited by Rat King; May 21, '11, 12:42 PM.Comment

One of my top 3 favorite wrestlers of all time. A wrestlers death hasn't hit me this hard since we lost Curt Henning and before him Owen HartComment

Yeah... A few years ago I went to the American Gladiators set to visit O'Hearn and got to hang out with Terry for a while. He did not have anything good to say about Savage, or Vince for that matter. This whole thing is a good example of the whole "life is too short" deal... Grudges are never a good thing. Life is too short.
