- "Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews "Macho Man" Randy Savage about his upcoming match with Intercontinental Champion Honky Tonk Man at the Spectrum.
(Superstars, October 17th 1987)
I have spent the last 3 days watching Macho Man promos, I regret nothing
Doing the same now
Time very well spent.
The best ever! Second to none!
Funny, I'm about 3 days in myself 😂
Try 3 years you won't regret it. I Recommend backwards randy!
"Don't buy any un-ripe bananas because you won't live to eat them" is probably one of the most cool and random things I think I've ever heard him say in a promo. There's so much to unpack there.
“Id rather die of exhaustion than die of starvation” has to be neck and neck
😂😂
He's talking to hogan he's just telling him don't buy any unripe bananas cause he will kill him before the bananas ripen 😂😂😂🤣
Tell him not to buy any winter clothes
😂🤣👍
Having a bad day? Just watch macho man promos! Works every time
30 years ago I watched these shows every week.... but only now I see how brilliantly funny his promos were
YES!!!
Or just do cocaine!
NEED A LITTLE EXCITEMENT? SNAP INTO A SLIM JIM! OHHH YEAH!
DIG IT !!!!!!!!!!
Macho Man might actually be the greatest on the mic in wrestling history.....and that's saying a lot.
Flair, Piper, Jake the Snake, Savage and eventually Dwayne. Honorable mentions The Road Warriors bringing the intensity and Ultimate Warrior practically speaking in tongues.
Macho's certainly my favorite. YEAH!!!!!!
@@chilboswaggins5500They We’re All Great But Macho Man Was The Greatest!!!
How Mean Gene keeps from laughing is his true superpower. Love the Macho Man!
Gene's eyebrows speak volumes.
Two absolute legends!
I legit could listen to this man do promos all day long.
I HAVE AND MY FACE HURTS FROM LAUGHING
Me too 😆
yea this is what ive been doing last two days
I have 😂😂😂
I’ve been doing it for two days now lol
Mean Gene had more charisma than the whole current WWE roster combined
facts
Yes no doubt!!
he is so good
80s wwf is so much better than current WWE.
Gene is a legend.
The only person that can do an interview with his back turned to the camera lol 😂
cocaine is a hell of a drug
Ultimate Warrior
Greatest wrestlers on the mic were Flair, Piper, Jake the Snake, Savage and eventually Dwayne. Honorable mentions The Road Warriors bringing the intensity and Ultimate Warrior practically speaking in tongues.
I love how he does 50% of the interview with his back to the camera! Love Macho!
Macho makes gibberish sound profound.
Because it is profound.
:)
"You told me to tell Jimmy Hart not to buy any winter clothes.. what does that mean?" 😂
He won't live till winters
doesnt elaborate XD
Because his future isn't bright 😂
This is outstanding
Lol! "Don't buy any ripe bananas cuz you won't live to eat them!" Hahaha!! Lol
@1647 Dark
"Don't buy any UNRIPE bananas ...
"Not passive to begin with, but I would imagine you're one angry individual right now."
That's one Iintense legend who never broke character.
He was so good he managed to keep the take going with a plane flying overhead and worked the plane noise into the promo....brilliant
On balance, off balance - doesn't matter!
@@pdach7660 That IS one of the greatest LIVE adlibs for me. Its after the last pot of cream fails to balance on his head, during "The cream of the crop" promo.
"Nothing means nothing......(Mean Jean: What does that even mean?).....Nothing means nothing". "Unjustifiably in a position i'd rather not be in" (which is going on my tombstone 😀).
Bro the way he exits his promo's are legendary 😂😂😂
Right. That spin out of the camera frame is legendary
As Legendary as when he enters his promo's!
As a child I pretty much exclusively watched WWF for the promos. The matches were OK but the shit talking was what I was there for.
👍👍👍👍👍
The Macho Man wasn’t just on the wavelength spectrum, he crossed astral planes with consummate ease as well 😉
“Don’t plan your future too far in advance.” So good
Okerland and Savage made a great team. They fed off each other. Classics! They don't make them like that today.
So true. You CANNOT dismiss Mean Gene as a major reason for the success of all these iconic promos!
Randall Mario Poffo was the most beautiful man that ever walked the Earth. RIP to him and Mean Gene.
Randy Pollo's wiki entry deleted all of his freakishly superior athletic capabilities.
For instance, he did 6,033 consecutive sit-ups on the deck of a Navy ship.
There's one about how fast he could consistently throw a softball. Pull-ups, push-ups.YEAH!!!!
I believe they were World Records in some categories. Disappointing and disrespectful that the current revision on his lifre excludes this unique aspect of the Macho Man's life.
@@oldsaerotech1167 You are about 3 seconds away from earning your tinfoil hat.
@@undercoverbrother67 In lieu of actually typing something in, AND actually finding out the truth, you show how you go through life. Angelo Pollo, Randy Pollo's father is actually the person who set the world record for sit-ups on the deck of a Navy ship.( This is why the wikipedia entry was revised). Easy to find out. The Macho Man, his son, at one point held the world record for fast-pitch softball and pull-ups.
Let the planes fly by, I can grab it out the sky😂🤣😂
The man was a poet.
It runs in the family. Lanny Poffo is his brother.
Love the MACHO MAN! YEAH! dig it?
Yep, dont buy any unripe bananas....killed me! I'm dead, The Macho Man is always hilarious, but that one, dead! I can watch Macho Man promos all day...RIP Macho
After hearing this, I was reminded that I forgot to get bananas at the store the other day whilst shopping.
Thanks, Macho! YEAH!!!!!
The BANG BANG in the beginning gets me souped asf
Macho Man & Mean Gene gave the best promos.
Love how he just pops in....with his spasmatic turns and his finger ☝️
My man dropped a freestyle and then said don’t buy any unripe bananas Bc you won’t live long enough to eat em. Damn
Gene Okerlund, what a good voice. 👍
The bang bang intro 😂😂
1:33 There have been a couple times when I overdid some pre-workouts back in the mid-2000’s that had who knows what in them and I was doing exactly what Macho Man was doing here. Strong stuff.
Except for Randy it was cocaine dripping down the back of his throat when he made that face.
Probably ephedra/ephedrine lol
"Hello, grocery store staff. Yes, do you have any ripe bananas?"
"Uh, why?"
"Because Macho Man Randy Savage told me to only buy them."
Macho Man and the Iron Sheik promos are pure comedic gold!
Mean Gene and the Macho man. Macho man, the only guy that would do a promo with his back to the camera.
I saw an interview where Mean Gene said he didn't rehearse Macho Man's promos with him because it made them better when he had no idea what Macho Man would say.
I wonder just how many times he had to break his mind from going, "what the hell is he even talking about?" To get back to his next line or question 😂😂😂
RIP to the Two Legends
Macho Man is like the Miles Davis of promos.
Everything he says is cool and I could listen to him all day lol....
There will never be another Macho Man, his promo’s were amazing.
He lit in every interview
Macho Man Was THE GREATEST ON PROMOS EVER!!!
There's a special kind of excitement that is generated when watching a WWF Macho Man promo. It takes place between when Mean Gene starts breaking down the card and right before Randy Savage walks into view of the camera. I can only describe it as Macho Madness.
Randy was the greatest showman of them all. I can still wipe a tear away thinking of the great man.
Don't buy any unripe bananas!
And don’t buy any winter clothes!
I was watching on 1.5 speed, and Randy being so intense, I thought it was normal.
These promos always bring a 😊 to my face.
Hey you there I thank you from the bottom of my heart for these videos. We never got to see these in our childhood as in India wwf was not aired until ESPN one day decided to show it live. We only got to see the good old ones on vhs that some one would bring from the middle East but it never had these promos of the Macho Madness. Cream of the crop Yeaaaah. I wish I could meet him
The awa and wccw were on espn but I never saw the wwf on there
I really miss the 80s promos love them
Love his promos and I can't get tired of watching him do the elbow drops
Truly one of a kind!!
He's literal ASMR. It'S GREAT!
You Are Now Watching A GENIUS AT WORK, Macho Man Was The Undisputed King Of The Promos!!!
his unpredictable high octane to low octane voice pitch is funny af lol
BEST ONE YET!!!!
I've spent the whole week so far watching Randy Macho Man videos. So much fun, man, yeah! Dig it! Too hot to handle, too cold to hold, YEAHH!!
Macho madness swagger
Showmanship meter just busted
Macho Man knew that wrestling was real and life was fake
hahaahhah wow, man, just wow. In the carreer I studied you had to do a giant assignment, for all of year 2017 I was practically locked in my study room working on that shit, 24/7 especially the two last months before the delivery date... how did I fucking survive you might ask? well eating food as healthy as I could, drinking tea, the ocassional blunt, and boy did I watch some Randy Savage videos... thank you so so very much for uploading these short little marvelous treasures brother, as you may see you've made a lot of people happier! MACHO MAN RANDY SAVAGE, THE CREAM OF THE CROP-- NOBODY DOES IT BETTER!!
brother/sister*!!!
God what I wouldn't give to have a few beers with this guy.
Sure miss him.
Ohhhh yeeaahh.
I could dig it.
"You know what wave length I'm on..."
We do, Randy, but we need LSD to be on it.
Bang bang!! Man, I never believed it but Foley really did steal from Macho!
Yep.
He uses the same rythym that Macho used. its not even close to thatlove shack song.
Couldn't help but notice that he came in with that "BANG BANG". Might this have been done before Cactus Jack started saying it?
Two legends in the greatest era of wrestling imho. Thank you both.
How is no one talking about when he comes in with the "Bang Bang" lol
These Macho Man clips never get old, 🤣
The ultimate motivational speaker
@Kingdom Of Madness
Macho Man truly was the greatest of all time, in my opinion. Thank you for uploading all of these gems that would otherwise had been lost to analog history 🥺
November the 7Th is my birthday and Macho Man vs Honky Tonk Man is one of my all time favorite rivalries. Add in the fact that I’ve seen the Macho Man Randy Savage wrestle in my hometown of Valparaiso, Indiana and I’d say everything else I’ve accomplished in my life is gravy. And there’s a whole lot of gravy, Yeah!
Interesting fact, same show in Boston that afternoon
"Don't buy any ripe bananas cause you won't be alive to eat 'em"
Randy, Randy, please look at the camera..... Turns back to camera and talks to the wall.
He always knew exactly where the camera was. That’s one of many reasons Savage was great.
What an absolute legend. Truly one of the greatest to do it.
Banana sales went down after this promo
Legend!
The G.O.A.T!
Man This guy should of been the highest paid wrestler ever , this is Great stuff, BANG BANG..
One of a kind
The Best.
Because he was the best wrestler and hottest looking man in the world.
The 360 every now and then gets me all the time.
Finger guns *BANG* *BANG*
The Golden Era of Wrestling OH Yeah! The GOATs Mean Gene and Macho Madness!
NO MORE QUESTIONS!!!
don't buy any un-ripe bananas, mean gene and macho man almost broke character after that line
0:47 Macho Man Cactus Jack 😂
Macho coming out, guns blazing. Bang Bang!
This was on my mom's birthday may she rest in peace and is the reason I'm a wrestling fan
I cant get enough macho man, Demolition Ax , Jake Roberts or Road Warrior hawk promos
Piper and Flair are also at the top.
Honky Tonk man downvoted twice, clearly he's not the cream of the crop.
Macho Man ❤️
Macho Man could cut a promo on a broomstick and it would still get me excited for that match.
I love and miss the old school wrestling shit talking..it was an art and macho man was michelangelo!!
I never need winter clothes... I live in California 😊 rip macho man ohh yeah will miss you
Tell em what I told ya
You said to tell him not to buy any winter clothes. What does that mean?
hahahaha
Macho Man and Mean Gene, what a duo
Same as the unripe bananas line: you're not going to live long enough to use them.
Seen this one before, but when he mentioned the unripe bananas again some of the food that was in my mouth fell out.
Like before watch!!!
I love the one when he told Mean Jean his mustache was crooked 😂
"Don't buy any winter clothes." That's a cold line right there
This made me really want to snap into a slim jim
Good thing they aren't any longer then this
I hold my breath when he speaks and I'm about to pass out
