Savage reportedly had not been drinking, and both he and his wife were reportedly wearing seat belts. His wife survived the incident and was taken to a local hospital. The former WWF and WCW pro wrestling champ, whose real name was Randall Mario Poffo and who played stints in the minor league systems of both the Cardinals and Reds, was 58 years old.
