Undeniably, 'Macho Man' Randy Savage is one of the most colourful, flamboyant and beloved characters in pro wrestling folklore. Simply scanning over his body is work is mightily impressive, as is the ability to not feel dizzy when admiring the man's remarkable array of outfits. Smaller than Hogan, but ten times the in-ring worker, Savage was able to hold his own during the late-80's, when giants were the order of the day in the then-WWF. It's incredible to believe, but the self-styled 'Macho Man' hasn't been inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame. Much has been made of his constant omissions from receiving the honour - upon his passing in 2011, many wrestling fans felt sure WWE would hold the ultimate tribute, but it hasn't happened as of yet. On the Steve Austin podcast, Vince McMahon definitively stated that it was only a matter of time, and we have to believe him. The announcement that Savage was set to be inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame in 2015 would be quite the Christmas present for any pro wrestling aficionado.
