* [[Affectionate Parody]]: "Black Machismo" Jay Lethal in [[Total Nonstop Action|TNA]]▼
▲* [[Affectionate Parody]]: "Black Machismo" Jay Lethal in [[TNA]]
** As well in [[The Spoony Experiment]] (which, awkwardly, killed him in his cameo a day or so before he died), and in [[Epic Rap Battles of History]]
* [[Arch Enemy]] / [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: [[Hulk Hogan]] (in the ring and in [[Real Life]]).
Line 30 ⟶ 29:
** The standarized Botchamania intro opens with his "I'VE BEEN IN THE DANGER ZONE!"
* [[Bunny Ears Lawyer]]: The Macho Man might have been one of the most insane people in wrestling (and that's saying a ''lot'') but he also went to great lengths to ensure he had the best matches he could possibly make.
* [[Catch Phrase]]:
** OOOOOH, YEAH!
** DIG IT!
Line 46 ⟶ 45:
** I mean how can you argue with this:
{{quote|People wanna know if Macho's still in the ring
People wanna know if Randy's doin' his thing
Everybody's talkin' wanna know this and that
So I'm a tell ya right now [[Randy Savage]] is back! }}
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: Savage had done several cartoon voices, mostly on shows from [[Cartoon Network]].
Line 63 ⟶ 59:
* [[Nice Hat]]: Savage had one from 1990 to 1996.
* [[Real Men Wear Pink]]: Or whatever weird color he'll be wearing, all the time, besides for in his [[New World Order]] days.
* [[Red Baron]]: "Macho Man", briefly "Macho King" before returning to the original moniker.▼
* [[Sanity Slippage]]: Back in [[The Eighties]], he would get violently upset if he thought someone was making moves on Elizabeth. [[It Got Worse|It went downhill from there]].
** By the end of his career he was so paranoid that he carried a gun in his bag at all times.

* [[Take That]]: The song "Be A Man Hogan!" off of his rap album, which is pretty much all about his [[Real Life]] feud with [[Hulk Hogan]] and his refusal to face Savage in a real wrestling match.
▲* [[Ted Baxter]]: Basically, he was the Daffy Duck to [[Hulk Hogan]]'s [[Bugs Bunny]].
* [[Underwear of Power]]
* [[Unperson]]: For years, Savage ''was'' treated like this by [[Vince McMahon]] and WWE, for reasons known only to Savage and McMahon. And, no, it's not because of a certain wrestling [[Urban Legends|Urban Legend]]<ref>(which allegedly involved a then-18-year old [[Stephanie McMahon]], and whether [[Memetic Molester|if it was rape or consensual]] [[Your Mileage May Vary|is up to debate]])</ref> that many fans (and even [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhVoh9fLJbk Dave Meltzer]) believes to this day. It more than likely had to do with Savage jumping to WCW. Thankfully, WWE has decided to recognize Savage's contributions to wrestling history as of late, with matches of his showing up on various DVD compilations as well as his own three-disc set, ''Macho Madness''.
** What's overlooked was that Savage was interviewed in the inaugural issue of ''WWE Smackdown Magazine'' (formerly [and currently] ''WWF/WWE Magazine''), released in 2003.
** Fortunately for Savage, it was not an attempt at character assassination like ''The Self-Destruction of the [[Ultimate Warrior]]''.
