Ok even I think guys like Hogan,Flair,Shawn,and Undertaker can be great stars from the 80's and 90's but seriously Savage wasn't that great of a WWF champ although he was good as a IC champion. But in WCW he really didn'ts do much except for the ocassional title run when noone was even caring about WCW anymore. But HBK is a true legend,having been a mainevent star even long after his prime. Still I also find it so funny that people wanted a Savage for so long and now Mattel is releasing one and everyone wants a HBK that even Jakks Pacfic has already done.

Compared to Randy Savage HBK was a jobber. Randy Savage is in the conversation for the greatest of all time while HBK is in the top ten. Most people that lived through the 80's would vote that Savage was better in a poll. Uhh..no. HBK has wider range of matches, skill set and mic skills than Macho Man ever did and that is no disrespect to Savage. HBK also did not need a valet to help get him over despite having one at times. Everyone has their own opinion, but please don't generalize regarding "people that lived through the 80's" because I did, and I do not agree with your statement. |

Regarless, there is a difference between saying Macho is a bigger star than Michaels and saying that Michaels is not a big star.

both are amazing overall workers.. yes the wwf gave sherri to hbk to help get him over as a heel and bring credibility since she was with macho then dibiase (main eventers)
just while savage was on top, HBK was rockin the mid card..till 95 ish when hbk took the top draw with bret. UMM U all MUST SEE Macho Man vs Shawn Michaels from a euro house show in 1992.. randy was babyface had the strap, shawn had sherri in his corner opposit Liz with randy... MATCH is phenominal.. and ALL OF YOU will realize both RANDY and SHAWN are magical in the ring... but savage was just that much smoother! and any1 over 21yrs old will tell you Macho Man has given promos that even made shawn michaels take notes.. literally in hbk's book he mentions watching from backstage and use - ing one of randy's ideas!!

There's no point having a stupid argument about who was better. Both of them are/were among the biggest stars in wrestling history. Anyone who claims either one of them wasn't is either blatantly trolling or a full moron. Or both.
The question remains as to what's going on with the Michaels figure, though. It'd be nice if Mattel have set the release back so they can actually paint a beard on Michaels, considering he's had one for every WWE appearance since late 2007 and this figure is based on a match from 2009.

I'm 26 and I prefer HBK. Even if he was inspired by Macho at times, I can't even count how many stars HBK has inspired over the years. Regardless both are legends but I think HBK's resume speaks for it self. |
