2. Macho Man Randy Savage vs. Ricky The Dragon Steamboat WrestleMania 3
If The Iron Man Match is a wrestling masterpiece, then Macho Man Randy Savage vs. Ricky The 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. Savages title was on the line and he wasnt 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. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WizE010F30 After an errant attempt to use the ring bell as a weapon and a shove from George The 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.
