In 2002’s Spider-Man, Army of Darkness star Bruce Campbell plays a ring announcer during the scene in which Peter Parker wrestles Bonesaw McGraw (as portrayed by “Macho Man” Randy Savage). Not only does Campbell introduce Savage’s character in the film, but he also brings out Peter, who asks to be referred to as the Human Spider. Instead, as Campbell proudly points out to this day, it’s the announcer character who decides to give Peter the moniker of the Amazing Spider-Man.

In the years since Savage’s death in 2011, Campbell has gotten extremely candid about what it was like working with the late wrestler all those years ago, and his recollections have been pretty wild. While promoting Ash vs Evil Dead in 2015, Campbell revealed that he actually shared a trailer with Savage on the set of Spider-Man.

Campbell summarized his experience with Savage at a 2019 Spooky Empire event by saying, “He was a horny little bas—d.”

A few years after that, an old clip of Savage singing Campbell’s praises resurfaced on Twitter. In it, Savage says that Campbell did a “very, very, very good job” with his impression of WWE and WCW ring announcer “Mean Gene” Okerlund in the movie. For that reason, Savage bestowed upon Campbell the nickname “Beautiful” Bruce Campbell. Campbell responded to his former co-star’s kind words like so:
