I have seen a lot of comments on social media discussing this biography in particular and many people did not like the direction it took as the biography covered a lot of unflattering things about Savage and he isn't around to defend himself in any way. I heard about of a lot of the things they discussed before he passed away, as I think most people who have followed wrestling for a long time have, I am wondering what your thoughts are on it. Did they do Savage dirty and unfairly, or, do you think it was just necessary to show what kind of person he used to be and the positive person he became?

Well, when you do a biogrophy of someone, you gotta talk about the good and bad times. I'm a huge fan of his, and the stuff with how I guess, protective or possessive of Liz that he was I already knew about. It had to be talked about. You can't just you know lie, and you can't talk about Macho Man without talking about her and their relationship.

They focused way too much on Elizabeth tbh and made that the focal point of his entire life. It's true that she was very important to his career and personal life, but it wasn't *everything*.

I didn't watch it, but heard reviews. What is weird is I heard some bio's they look past people's negatives, but with Randy Savage they kind of went at him during the second half.

Now with Steve Austin's did they mention his spousal abuse? And arrest for it. Or the other girlfriend who alleged he hit her.
