    "Don't buy any un-ripe bananas because you won't live to eat them" is probably one of the most cool and random things I think I've ever heard him say in a promo. There's so much to unpack there.

      Randy Pollo's wiki entry deleted all of his freakishly superior athletic capabilities.
      For instance, he did 6,033 consecutive sit-ups on the deck of a Navy ship.
      There's one about how fast he could consistently throw a softball. Pull-ups, push-ups.YEAH!!!!
      I believe they were World Records in some categories. Disappointing and disrespectful that the current revision on his lifre excludes this unique aspect of the Macho Man's life.

Angelo Pollo, Randy Pollo's father is actually the person who set the world record for sit-ups on the deck of a Navy ship.( This is why the wikipedia entry was revised). Easy to find out. The Macho Man, his son, at one point held the world record for fast-pitch softball and pull-ups.
