    I loved watching him in the WWF days, as well. Sad news. Rest in peace.

        Grew up watching Mene Gene in wwf and Super Dave on Bizarre. Two big pieces of my childhood gone. Sad.

            Loved Mean Gene back in the day, those facial expressions when he was interviewing wrestlers, I even had his
            LJN figure.

              I loved Mean Gene on the microphone! One of the best interviewers ever. Rest in peace.

                Somehow, if you listen closely, you can now hear Mean Gene bantering back and forth with Bobby Heenan in Heaven. A true legend on the mic.

                  Best interview he ever did was with Randy Savage. The one where Savage kept bringing out the little coffee creamers.

                    That poor ba5tard represented back in the day what no kid wanted to look like: short, bald with jowls. I'd be "mean" too if I got smacked with that DNA.

                          that's nice. I didn't even know Hulk was still active with wrestling

                              It was a beautiful tribute.
