Macho Man on BBC Children's Show

[The Thread Barbi]

Sometimes the YouTube algorithm throws up absolute gems



What a masterclass in holding character, keeping kayfabe and yet being genuine and enjoying what you're doing.

Mods - posted the video as its from the BBC Archive official YouTube channel and not associated with a WWE production. Feel free to change if necessary.

Shame he and Liz never had kids and stayed together. Randy seems like he woulda been an incredibly fun dad to little Savage or two... uh huh!

Going Live - the show featured here - was essential Saturday morning viewing for us British kids from 1986 to its end in 1992. The WWF was making more frequent trips to Europe, and wrestlers would often appear on children’s television. It varied in excitement though - although Savage was in his element here, other times you had a slightly awkward Tatanka and then, God know why, IRS in full taxman character...

I mean....why?
