A Video Game Reunites The WWE And The Macho Man
By Dr. Eleanor Vance | Published on January 01, 0001
In 1994, the WWF and an emotional Vince McMahon bid farewell to hall-of-fame wrestler Randy Savage. On March 29, the Macho Man ends a 16-year estrangement from the wrestling 
circuit with his appearance in THQ’s WWE All-Stars.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); Savage, by far the most requested performer in THQ’s wrestling titles, will be 
a featured character in WWE All-Stars, the over-the-top body-slamming arcade-action title. He last appeared in a WWF or WWE video game in 1994, in WWF Royal Rumble for rummy best the Genesis.
On Nov. 7 of that year, he and McMahon, the WWF boss, had been unable to come to terms on a new contract, and Savage left for the competing WCW series. It was a total breakup. Except for a DVD highlight collection in 2005 that featured his past performances – hosted by others and without any commentary from Savage – he has not been featured in anything under a WWE/WWF brand between then and now.
It seems the two rummy golds sides have patched up whatever rupture was caused by Savage’s defection to the WCW, under whose flag he last appeared in a video game in 2004. A line of WWE toys by Mattel will soon feature the Macho Man as well. Wrestling fans have pined to see Savage in a video game for years, but evidently his presence in a WWE rummy mars game was a nonstarter until now. With Savage back in the fold, 
THQ filmed this classic-style promo – evidently ad-libbed throughout with all of his catch phrases, just like the days when he was Intercontinental Champion, Mean Gene Okerlund was to his right with the mike, and Miss Elizabeth was on his left arm.

The deposit process is smooth and fast. I was able to fund my account instantly and start playing without any hassle. Plus, the multiple payment options make it convenient for everyone regardless of location.
The bonuses are nice and offer great value, although they could be a bit more frequent. I love being part of the VIP program, which gives me extra rewards and makes me feel appreciated as a loyal player.
