Macho Man Randy Savage apparently - car crash, aged 58.

RIP Randy, another of the wrestling greats from my youth gone. Sad news.

Long gone are those days

Ah fuck. I've no time for wrestling these days, but back in the late '80s Randy Savage was the main event in our house. What a shame. 'Course, maybe he was just the only one that got taken up in the Rapture.

I've no time for wrestling either. See that fella, he had more character in his little finger than the entire current roster. Best stage name ever. Made me smile every time, especially since the yanks were seemingly oblivious to its connotations.

Shame, I heard this earlier on Twitter but not the cause. At 58 he wasn't actually as old as I thought he was... Which could mean that I'm getting old of course.

Aw hell not Randy!

He was BoneSaw in Spiderman.

'BoneSaw is Readyy!'

Not for the great leveller sadly.

Gutted.

I was always amazed how he managed to be in Muriel's Wedding, The Adventures of Priscilla Queen of the Desert and Strictly Ballroom. But when you see him in them you know why.

As a huge fan of Strictly Ballroom I will raise a glass to him on Friday and state "There are no new steps!".

Suzanne Mizzi, aged 43 from cancer. All of us of a certain age will remember her quite well.

That's very sad, two young kids have lost their Mum. Looks like she had a good life and career beyond Page 3.
