Randall Mario Poffo, also known as "Macho Man" Randy Savage, was an American wrestler. He appeared in the 150th episode of Death Battle, Macho Man VS Kool-Aid Man, where he fought against Kool-Aid mascot Kool-Aid Man.
History
Randall Mario Poffo was born as the son of a wrestler in the 1950s, but pursued a career as a professional baseball player until the early 70's. When that pursuit failed, Randall began a new wrestling career in the footsteps of his father. "Randy Savage", also known as the "Macho Man", would debut in the ring in 1973, donning a flashy attire and taking on a confident and over-the-top persona. He had obtained 29 championship reigns with 11 titles, and became a legend among WWF and the global wrestling community. Whether it was advertising Slim Jim beef sticks, taking the guise of an alien wrestler, or fighting both Spider-Man AND Chuck Norris, the Macho Man's legacy had been set in stone even after his death in 2011.
