@Junkay2 the NWA and WWF had there eye on him but since he was running oppostion to the NWA, they wouldnt use him. WWF wouldnt neither since Vince Sr. was a NWA member at the time. Also even if they wanted to use him, his reputation for being unpredictable cost him lot early in his carrer
Savage was blackballed for close to ten years from major organizations... Memphis finally signed him, and Vince wasn't far behind after someone else had signed him first...
With promos like this, I'm surprised some major promotion didn't discover him sooner! And whoever finds these things, keep posting these Randy Savage ICW/pre-WWE videos!
Google ICW Poffo Universe the ICW Poffo website compiled to chronicle The Poffo's independent wrestling promotion which ran from 1979- 1985 .
Tons of ads for house shows ( over 700 on the site) . Pictures of the Macho Man from high school; match listings for early Lanny and Randy bouts from Phil Goldens All Star Wrestling from 1973.Pictures of Randy's great wardrobe .This is the most comprehensive site dedicated to the Poffo's.Enjoy!!

That intro music is from the movie Midnight Express.
It's Giorgio Moroder's The Chase. One of my all time favorites!
