CAUSE OF DEATH OF MACHO MAN STILL UNKNOWN AFTER AUTOPSY
- TMZ.COM is reporting that the cause of death for Macho Man Randy Savage is
not known yet and it's listed as pending in the medical examiner's report.
Macho Man's body was transferred to the Pinellas county Medical Examiner on
Friday evening
 and an autopsy was performed on Saturday. According to the
website, no extensive trauma was noticed on the body and now it will take
four to six weeks for toxicology results to be completed. Savage died on
Friday
 after his Jeep Wrangler hit a tree in a head-on collision following a
"medical event" which initially was thought to be a heart attack according
to his brother Lanny. His wife Lynn who was in the passenger seat was also
slightly injured but has since been released from the hospital.


> SPORTS ILLUSTRATED WEBSITE PUBLISHES RARE PHOTOS OF SAVAGE
- The Sports Illustrated website has a collection of twenty rare Macho Man
photos starting from 1956 when he was just four years old. The photos go
through his teen years when he played baseball up until 1975 and then jump
to his WWE career from 1988 with a photo as WWE champion with Regis Philbin,
with Hogan in 1996 at WCW etc. It's a pretty cool collection which you can

> SAVAGE TO BE CREMATED, NO PUBLIC MEMORIAL SERVICE TO BE HELD
- TMZ.COM is reporting that there will not be a public memorial service for
Macho Man Randy Savage as he expressed his wish not to have one and the
service will only be for family members. His brother, Lanny Poffo, told the
website that he will be cremated and his ashes will be spread around a tree
where his dog's ashes were also spread several years ago. "If it's good
enough for Herc (his dog), it's good enough for me," Poffo recounted his
brother often saying. Meanwhile, the website also got the 911 emergency call
that a woman placed immediately following the accident. The call can be
heard at
