Wrestlers come to the WWE to gain success, wealth, and fame. While some keep to themselves and just focus on their career, others get along with fellow wrestlers and in some cases so well that they become like family.

As in the case of the late Eddie Guerrero and Rey Mysterio who were like brothers to each other. Similarly, the friendship between Triple H and Shawn Michaels needs no introduction. But one wrestling couple was so tight with Hulk Hogan, that they even acted as babysitters for his kids.

Hulk Hogan really misses ‘Macho Man’ Randy Savage a lot 

In the 1980s, one super tag team dominated the WWE and sent shivers down the spines of most opponents. We are talking about the destructive partnership of Hulk Hogan and ‘Macho Man’ Randy Savage. They even beat André the Giant and Ted DiBiase at SummerSlam in a tag team match thus proving their supremacy as two of the biggest stars of the Golden Era.

And recently on the ‘Theo Von’ podcast, Hogan got rather emotional when talking about his once best friend Randy Savage. He expressed how he misses him a lot even today as they spent every single day together during their early wrestling days. They were so close like a family that Macho Man and his wife Miss Elizabeth would babysit Hulk Hogan’s kids. Such was the trust and brotherhood between the two wrestling juggernauts.

Hogan said, “My guys that we’re here all the time that I really miss was Randy, The Macho Man, we were together every single day, and it’s kinda like I miss him a lot. And so I spent years and years and years with him and he used to babysit my kids, well him and Elizabeth”.

You can clearly see that Hogan really cherished his friendship with The Macho Man who left for his heavenly abode on May 20, 2011, at the age of 58. But why did Hogan’s and Macho Man’s friendship turn sour in the 90s?

Macho Man blamed Hulk Hogan for his divorce from his wife Miss Elizabeth

As stated above, Hogan and Macho’s Man families were very close, so obviously the wives would spend time together. But things unraveled in 1992.

Savage blamed Hogan and his wife Linda for planting ideas in his wife Elizabeth’s mind after she filed for divorce. According to him, they filled Miss Elizabeth’s head with ideas that she was missing out on life’s adventures, something Hogan’s other rival The Ultimate Warrior also reiterated.

Things got so brutal that Hogan appeared at WrestleMania 9 with a black eye courtesy of Macho Man Randy Savage after he found Elizabeth at a hotel with Hogan’s family.

Although many believe Hogan never even got a chance to reconcile with Macho Man prior to his death, ‘The Hulkster’ said they made up before Savage passed away tragically in 2011.

Still, there is no denying that the two mega stars were very close at one point with Savage and his wife babysitting Hogan’s kids. What do you think of the revelation by Hogan.
