Loved watching him while growing up. He played his part and played it well.

RIP Mean Gene.

May He Rest In Peace.

I don't know how he kept a straight face during a few of those interviews. Bobby Heenan seemed to almost make him crack up sometimes, but he didn't break character, just got a twinkle in his eye that made it obvious he WANTED to bust a gut.

A true character… R.I.P., Mean Gene.

i bought he passed before, oh that was Gordon Sole i think.

RIP Mean Gene, he played the perfect goof to the wrestler's straight shtick.

One of the best. I remember watching him with my dad.

WWE wouldn't have been the same without him. RIP, Gene
