I've seen Steamboat/Savage a million times and it's still epic and somehow actually gets better with age. Those guys are top ten workers of all time and they packed so much action and storytelling into like a 15 minute match.

He needs to be put in the WWE Hall of Fame already.
He is one of the best of all time IMO great gimmick great on the mic great in the ring whats not to like?

Randy was influential too. New York was always a big man territory until Vince saw smaller guys could get over too and have much better matches. Bret credited Randy for paving the way for guys like himself and Shawn. Randy was also the first guy to ever piledrive an opponent through a table.
