There were apparently rumors online that WWE Hall of Famer Bobby Heenan had recently passed away.That is not the case as legendary announcer “Mean” Gene Okerlund posted a message on Facebook on Monday shooting down the rumors.
“Bobby Heenan is very much alive,” Okerlund wrote. “I’ll be seeing him and his loving wife in a couple of weeks. Heenan is one man that fans loved to hate. And that’s a good thing.”
Heenan was diagnosed with throat cancer in 2002 and had reconstructive surgery on his jaw in 2007. He still makes public appearances, albeit on occasion.
