14 WWE Wrestlers Who Defied Gravity Before Neville
14. Randy Savage
Make no mistake, 'Macho Man' Randy Savage deserves his place on this list because of his signature move. His Diving Elbow Drop from the top rope was as devastating a high-flying attack as they come, and it'd get the job done more often than not. That's not to say his style was primarily of a high-flyer, but Savage was no stranger to the air. His finishing move is one of the most iconic in the history of the business, and to this day it's emulated by Superstars inspired by the Macho Man - who was a leader in wrestling in the late 80's to early 90's. Savage was a genuine success across a host of promotions, with two WWF Championship reigns, an Intercontinental title, and four WCW World Heavyweight Championship wins on his list of accomplishments. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICDG24NkYyc
