OT RIP "Mean" Gene Okerlund

[Mediocre Man]

A great one. Loved wrestling back in the day, and he was brilliant at what he did.

Damn... I loved that guy. One more time in remembrance of how all his interviews started...

"Well I'll TELL YA MEAN GENE!!"

He was a legend.

 

[Chris Craig]

Mean Gene Damn, 2019 is starting where 2018 left off...more legends gone

 

[speeds]

One of best hosts and television interviewers. His outtakes are grea as well. Seemed like a good guy.

Damn. Two parts of my childhood gone with Super Dave and now Mean Gene. Later Gene, you were one in a million.

I haven't watched pro wrestling since I was 12.
Dale Thomas, the storied wrestling coach at Oregon State, once challenged any pro wrestler to wrestle him, who weighed 200 lbs, to a wrestling match using college rules.
