#4 Macho Man Randy Savage and Andre the Giant

<p>

Andre the Giant is recalled as being a relaxed, chill sort of person--unless he was angry. Randy Savage was a severe type A perfectionist who fretted over every aspect of his matches.

The two personalities were bound to clash, and they did just that. Andre was old school, and liked to make up his matches along the way during the contest. Savage would fill up an entire spiral bound notebook with intricate details of his plans for a match. They simply did not click on a professional level, and Andre was also somewhat dismayed by Savage's treatment of his real life wife Miss Elizabeth.

While they worked many matches together, everyone agrees that Andre was extra 'stiff' with the Macho Man (meaning his attacks, while still restrained, were much harder than they needed to be to sell the performance.) For his part, Macho Man put up with the stiff strikes, hair pulling, and choking, and had nothing but good things to say about Andre in the years after.
