Cause Of Randy Savage’s Death Announced

After two weeks we all get to know how and why Randy Savage died. Well the how part will be left up in the air other than the fact he hit a tree. Randy’s brother Lanny “ The Genius” Poffo gave an exclusive interview to The Brighthouse Sports Network but exclusivity means nothing when you can quote them.

Savage’s brother Lanny Poffo told us, Savage died from a condition known as ventricular fibrillation (VF).  VF is a severely abnormal heart rhythm that can lead to fainting or heart attacks.

For those of who hoping to find that he died of a drug overdose or from some other heart ailment that you could then track back to steroids or drug use this has to be a pooper.  Sure those sorts of things wouldn’t help a condition like this but then it won’t stop you from publishing column upon column upon blog upon newsletter space about how WWF/E should be crucified for this. But then natural causes or a undisclosed heart ailment won’t sell those subscriptions and message board memberships will it?

As a side note to all of this; I understand Lanny’s need to feel poetic or elegant regarding the death of his brother but this is not a beautiful death.  Falling asleep behind the wheel of a speeding jeep with your wife in the passenger seat and crossing over in to oncoming traffic is not a beautiful way to go. What would be a beautiful way to go would be to fall asleep behind the wheel of your jeep by yourself and run in to an elementary school’s natural gas line. The collision would surely set off a fireball a mile high and could be seen from the rival elementary schools window. -Jeremy
