Before Savage left wwf, he wanted a fued with shawn michaels. he thought they could put on amazing matches (which they would have) and also put shawn over like crazy, while battling for the intercontinental title (which was synonymous with randy at that time). Vince told him he was too old for the ring. Randy is the greatest ever and proved that by going to wcw, winning the title 5 times and making DDP a legend.

This is great story telling. Savage from established wrestling lineage sees an up and comer in DDP, befriends/mentors him and works a program with him that's dynamic and memorable .What a way to get a guy over. I was at The LA Forum in 1997 for the culmination of this feud (Saturday Nitro, also one of the 1st livestream events) and it was awesome. Savage took 2 or 3 Diamond Cutters after a brawl of a match. That night I also saw Goldberg walk up to The Giant and pick him uo and hold hin above his head Warrior style..walk around the ring with him a bit then toss him away . Good stuff.

There will never be another like Randy "Macho Man" Savage.. Truly a Legend and Icon in wrestling. The man was undervalued his entire wrestling career, by the promoters. But not by the fans and his fellow wrestlers. I am sure he had his issues like we all do, but the man was the real deal.

Another great moment was randy savage was the referee at spring stampede 1999 when DDP won his first wcw world title as well. Like it came full circle since there first match was at spring stampede 1997.

I very rarely watched WCW in the 90’s because I felt like I was betraying WWF. I didn’t know much about this feud. This is one of my favorite videos on the channel so far, esp after hearing about the Thanksgiving convo. Truly Awesome.. Well Done!

@@OliveMule Yup, these days I see it as a blessing & a mistake. A blessing because I get to watch everything now for the first time as if it’s new. After this video, I went to watch the DDP Savage matches & some of the things that went along with it. Even tho KZitem has a lot, WWE Network has almost everything, which is clutch. It’s also a mistake because I could’ve been watching double the drama instead of just one, back in a time when I was emotionally invested & still had trouble deciphering what was real & what wasn’t. I was born in 87 & really became obsessed with WWF in 91-92. Although, it always felt like I started watching in 89-90 because I bought every VHS I could possibly find, so it was as if I was watching it live at that age. By the time the Monday Night Wars started, I was about 9-10 years old, so even though I knew a lot of it wasn’t real, I still had certain feelings about what I was watching. My Father would watch pay per views with me & even tho he somewhat enjoyed it (mostly because I did), he wasn’t afraid to let me know it was real. This is because when the Undertaker threw Foley off of the Hell in a Cell, I chewed his ear off! “How can this be fake?! The guy just flipped off of a massive cage & went through a table & hit the floor! He might be dead!” (I still don’t know if Terry Funk coming out was planned or not lol because they were kayfabe rivals, so I dunno if he genuinely came out cause he was worried or if he was sent out to make it look even more real that they were “breaking kayfabe”).. That’s what I mean by I still had the emotions. I still felt excited, nervous, upset, etc.. according to what was going on. So it was the perfect time for me to have watched both.. Sorry for the novel response lol.

Despite a legendary career, Savage is actually quite underrated. His best matches were way ahead of their time, he could still go in his late forties and he was willing to do business with new people.

The other thing that helped DDP is the fact that he would go into the crowd . That made him connect with the fans more. Savage elevates his opponents cuz he makes it seem like he hates their guts and the opponent has to step their game up to survive a feud with Randy
