If The Iron Man Match is a wrestling masterpiece, then €œMacho Man€ Randy Savage vs. Ricky €œThe Dragon€ Steamboat for the Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania 3 is the blueprint. This match is held in high regard by insiders and fans alike. The sense of urgency from both competitors is unlike anything you see on television today. Savage€™s title was on the line and he wasn€™t going to give it up easily. Mach€™ made every attempt he could to get Steamboat out of there. When the referee went down, Savage managed to hit his flying elbow for what should have been a victory.After an errant attempt to use the ring bell as a weapon and a shove from George €œThe Animal€ Steele, Savage was vulnerable. The injured Macho Man fell easy prey to the waiting Steamboat, who reversed a scoop slam into a small package for the surprise win. It is one of the most feverish, exciting wrestling matches you will ever see.
