This is sad sad news. One of my favorite wrestlers has died at the age of 58. Macho Man Randy Savage, real name Randy Mario Poffo, suffered a heart attack while driving his Jeep with his wife in the passenger seat. He jumped across the lane, somehow missing oncoming traffic, and slammed into a tree. He died later in a Tampa, FL hospital. His wife suffered only minor injuries. The two were married for only a year, in fact they just celebrated their 1st anniversary earlier this month. Macho Man was an icon and a fan favorite from the start. His flamboyant costumes and awesome voice won over millions. I, like many young boys, was a huge wrestling fan in the 90's. I was a WCW fan because they had all of the wrestlers I like, great story lines and bright colors. Macho Man vs. Hulk Hogan was something I always loved watching. Sadly he is gone now and I ma 115% sure he will be missed by all wrestling fans around the world. Below is a video of him doing his famous Slim Jim commercial. I would lie to believe that he is the reason why Slim Jims are still around and eaten by many people. I am giving this sad news a Digit Down.
Snooki is back on my mind again. She wrestled last night at WWE's biggest event Wrestlemania. She won her match, of course, but she did it with an impressive backhand spring butt move. She was able to do this because she took gymnastics from age 3 all to the way to age 13. She was also a cheerleader in high school. Pretty nice Snooki. I am giving her a Digit Up because at the end of the day she is like my favorite Jersey Shore member.
Linda McMahon, known as the former CEO of World Wrestling Entertainment, won the Republican nomination for the open Connecticut Senate seat. She received 49% of the votes in a 3-way battle, that is pretty good. She did spend nearly $22 million of her own money to fund her campaign, and she is willing to spend up to $50 million, major. Some thought her wrestling history would harm her, especially in an ultra conservative state such as Connecticut. Although she has not tried to hide her past, she even made a commercial about it, she let it be known that that is her past and this is her future. I have always been fond of Mrs. McMahon and the McMahon family, so I was very pleased with her win. I do hope that she does go on to win the seat this November, her policies on taxes are actually really good. Some say that she may be buying her way into the senate, and if this were almost any other state I would agree, but this state is full of smart and wise wealthy business men and women, money means nothing to them. I think she earned it and she also earned a Digit Up from me.
