He was transported to Largo Medical Center, where he died. His wife was a passenger in the vehicle but survived with only minor injuries.

  1. You guys are one of the first places I've seen even reporting on this. Good work.

    Savage was one of the true greats of wrestling. He and Hulk Hogan helped pave the way for what wrestling is today.

    He will be missed.
