    That's surprising because I always thought I had you correctly pegged as an 80's wrestling fan. :confused:

    Coming from a person who had never seen Star Wars or heard the song Bohemian Rhapsody, this is not surprising.

    Damn, absolutely loved the guy.

    He even voiced a character on Dexter's Laboratory (Raslor)

    Clip #1 was performance art. Scary Sherri Martel was a very interesting time capsule on WWE's female product: veteran wrestler, sufficient play-actor. And there's some kind of sexuality there, but it's not overt or conventional enough to be broadly appealing. Even though the Divas were a fairly logical creative and commercial decision, the ambiguity and intensity here is something.

    So it was a car accident?I heard it was a heart attack. That makes more sense. Is it possible he had a heart attack, and made a car accident? Technically the cause of death would be a car accident.

    EDIT: On May 20, 2011, Savage died after an automobile accident about 10 a.m. while driving on a street in Seminole, Florida, a town in the Pinellas County side of the Tampa Bay area.[114] It is suspected he may have had a heart attack, which led to his losing control of the vehicle and crashing into a tree. His wife was also in the automobile; however, she received only minor injuries. This report was later confirmed by Savage's brother, Lanny Poffo.[5][115]
