Mean Gene was one of the all time greats, especially interviewing the likes of Hulk Hogan (Well you know somethin' Mean Gean!) and Ric Flair (MEAAAN, WOOOOOOO!!, BY GOD, GENE!!). He will be missed. At least he is back together with Bobby Heenan and Gorilla Monsoon. Be at peace, Mr. Okerlund.
Very sad.
