Randy Savage has achieved more in wrestling than most could ever dream of. He is legendary. The Macho Man is truely one of the greats in the industry. He first came to the WWF shortly before WrestleMania II, with his manager, Elizabeth, as an egotistical heel. He soon won the Intercontinental Title from Tito Santana and found himself traveling around the globe wrestling none other than Hulk Hogan. Savage dropped the title to Ricky Steamboat at WrestleMania III, in what was arguable the greatest match of the 80s, and a contender to top five of the century. A year later, Mach was a fan favorite and at WrestleMania IV, he went through four men in a tournament to be crowned the Undisputed Champion, pinning “The Million Dollar Man” Ted DiBiase in the finals with help from his new friend, none other than Hulk Hogan. For the next year, the Mega Powers dominated the World Wrestling Federation; But gradually tension began to tear the team apart, Savage’s jealousy of Hogan turned him heel again, and after a year-long program, Savage challenged Hogan for a showdown at WrestleMania V (The MegaPowers Explode).
