His former wife Elizabeth Hulette was found dead in the home of professional wrestler Lex Luger on May 1, 2003 from a drug overdose. While numerous wrestlers and insiders have blamed Luger for Elizabeth's death, it is important to note that Savage bears no ill will towards Luger. According to a 2003 shoot interview with Lanny Poffo (Savage's brother), Savage has no animosity towards Luger, and feels that Elizabeth brought about her own death due to her drug use.

Jakks Pacific tried to sign him up for the Classic Superstars line up only to be denied by Vince McMahon, despite the fact that he allowed them to sign a number of wrestlers on bad terms with WWE, including The Ultimate Warrior (signed twice by Jakks), Bruno Sammartino, The Honky Tonk Man, and even Bret "The Hitman" Hart. Savage remains one of the only prominent WWE stars who hasn't signed up with Jakks for a figure.
