Before he locked horns with The Ultimate Warrior in a 'Retirement Match' at WrestleMania VII, Randy Savage fell on the heel side of the good and bad divide. Fans were somewhat split, but it's true that Warrior was the more obvious hero in the equation. By the end of the bout, heat aimed at Savage cooled, and people were ready to embrace him once more.

Maybe it was the 'Macho Man' who carried the bulk of proceedings, but the collision exceeded expectations. Even now when shown to those who haven't seen it - yet are aware of Warrior's work - it likely comes as a surprise how utterly gripping the match was. After the action was all said and done, and Randy had stared at the lights, he turned babyface by reuniting with Miss. Elizabeth in a tear-jerking love scene.

It was a wonderful way to cap off what had been a stirring contest, but it must not be overlooked that Warrior bagged the win. What makes this one meaningful isn't only the actual match result however, it's the fact it paved the way for Savage to return to the babyface kingdom. Fans were there to greet him.
