10. He's A Chameleon. Uh-Huh! Uh-Huh!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=klGRVTTntoI Quote: "NO MORE QUESTIONS!!" Who Said It: 'Macho Man' Randy Savage Who Received It: 'Mean' Gene Okerlund Rest in peace Macho Man, you unstable son of a gun. There will be wrestlers who are just as technically skilled as Macho Man, if not more skilled, but there will never be someone with Savage's mic skills. Savage had a way of making the air crackle with energy even when he wasn't making too much sense. And of course, Mean Gene's interviewing him, and the guy must have been biting the insides of his cheeks to stop from laughing. The best thing about Macho Man promos is that they rarely end when Mean Gene wants them to end. More than once, Savage is still yelling in the background after Mean Gene signs off. Or, in this particular case, Savage cuts off the promo before Mean Gene is finished asking questions. Crazy is as crazy does.
