R.I.P. Macho Man Randy Savage

Meanwhile, back in the land of paranoid delusion, Warrior releases yet another diatribe against Hogan - this time accusing him of being a swinger and a cokehead.

Macho Man update:

Lanny Poffo, the brother of Randy Savage, has announced in an interview with the Bright House Sports Network in Florida that the official cause of Savage's death has been revealed.

Poffo states that Savage died from a condition called ventricular fibrillation, which is an abnormal heart arrhythmia that twitches the heart and prevents it from pumping blood to the body. This condition also causes such things as fainting and heart attacks.

This news from Poffo confirms that Savage's heart attack was in fact the very thing that tragically took his life.

Poffo also said the following in praise of Savage's widow Lynn:

"Randy's foot was still on the accelerator. She reached over and steered the Jeep Wrangler into a tree, saving the live of a motorcyclist and possibly a bus. You know, there's no telling what can happen when you're going the wrong way."

Rosa Mendes had a "wardrobe malfunction" (hate that term) during the tapings on Tuesday. They had to cut her match with Natalya short and Nat celebrated more enthusiastically to get fan attention away from Rosa as she hurried to the back, covering herself.

Mark Henry had a thing happen last week (or the week before) where he came out after a Raw and/or SD was done, and waited for his opponent. The music of a few different wrestlers was played, and he played to the crowd for a bit, but then after about 20 minutes of BS, he went back stage and that was that. This week, Henry came out for a match again (against Johnny Curtis) but the dude didn't come out. Then, Vince's music hit (his music had played last week, too). Finally, Matt Striker came out and asked Mark why his none of his opponents wanted to face him. Henry ripped the crowd and then said that if his opponent did come out they'd get their ass kicked like his music says.

Tyson Kidd had another new manager this week, Vickie. She dumped him when he lost to Yoshi.

Also, Zack Ryder just tweeted:

"WHAT?! There is a BROSKI OF THE WEEK sign in the upcoming WWE 12 Video Game? AHAHAHAHA. WWWYKI!"

Goose! · June 2011

Here's the video (the sign pops up at about 1:35)

Cripes, I feel kinda bad for Henry now. I mean, he's a thoroughly average wrestler, but I can't imagine him really deserving that.

Radius · June 2011

Well that is a thoroughly depressing article.

Sweeney Tom · June 2011

Damn. Nobody deserves to be treated that way.

I have even more respect for Mark Henry now, simply because after dealing with that shit for almost 2 decades, he still hasn't quit.

Matev · June 2011

Seriously, most people don't deserve demeaning treatment like that. Henry's got some serious gumption sticking it out.

Hahahah, shakeweight fistpump.

Radius · June 2011

Could it be possible? Zack Ryder matches on Raw in 2 consecutive weeks? Or you know, they could just completely ignore that his entire gimmick is based around Long Island.

this week's broski looks like he weighs thirteen pounds

I like the idea of a Zeke/Usos stable

and Booker T drops a Stevie Ray reference, nice

Ashcroft · June 2011

Zeke's big moves are the bodyslam, the torture rack, and grinning like a tool.

Isn't that Bobby Lashley's gimmick?

Hjorvarthr · June 2011

But Zeke is what you call domination

and AJ is looking really pretty

HyperAquaBlast · June 2011

Hey I saw that Best of Monday Night Nitro is out on DVD. Is it any good? '97-99 WCW is all I care about for wrestling.

Raijin Quickfoot · June 2011

Everytime I read about Mae Young giving birth to a hand I find it more and more ridiculous.
