WWE’s got a few great bloopers in its history, but the Mean Gene blooper from 1989’s SummerSlamis easily one of the funniest. Just as Okerlund was beginning his backstage interview of Rick Rude and Bobby Heenan, the SummerSlam sign suddenly fell off the wall, startling the legendary interviewer, who cursed on camera and joked about how much WWE was...
While Mean Gene’s whole thing involved being the most professional broadcaster talking to the least professional athletes possible, his late-period WCW iteration involved subverting a lot of that, so fans saw a more raunchy “dirty old man” version of Okerlund. One of the more wholesome (yet still funny) moments had the underrated Mamalukes-- WCW’s ...
“Dr. D” David Schultz’s biggest claim to fame was slapping the soul out of John Stossel on 20/20 before getting ousted from WWE,but this American Wrestling Association interview with Mean Gene Okerlund is just as memorable.

There doesn’t appear to be a lot of nostalgia for Mean Gene’s WCW run -- especially the later years -- but Okerlund still had his moments during such trying times. At the Fall Brawl 2000 pay-per-view, Okerlund was conducting an interview with the entire Natural Born Thrillers stable,and was none too impressed, reacting to their antagonism by saying...
This moment offers the best of both worlds -- Mean Gene showing his professionality as an interviewer and also unexpectedly cracking up. In talking to “Mr. Wonderful” Paul Orndorff,Okerlund plays the perfect straight man reacting to Orndorff’s claims that he’s the most famous and important person everywhere he goes. But when Mr. Wonderful turns his...
Given the nature of kayfabe in wrestling, it’s always a special joy to see how personalities behave out of character while the cameras are rolling. The character Kamala infamously never spoke English on-screen, but in this outtake Mean Gene was able to get “The Ugandan Giant”to open up -- kind of. Standing next to Kamala’s manager Kim Chee, Okerlun...
While some fans may balk at Mean Gene’s late period turn as a dirty old man, there’s some clear evidence that it wasn’t just a Vince Russo gimmick. On a May 1985 episode of Tuesday Night Titans, Okerlund conducted a brief interview with WWE Women’s Champion Wendi Richter, who talked about how there were various challengers waiting in the wings to t...
Mean Gene and Hulk Hogan were among the many wrestlers who jumped ship from the American Wrestling Association to WWE in the mid-1980s, and in 1984 the duo found themselves in a little feud against George “The Animal” Steele and Mr. Fuji. In anticipation of a tag team match,Okerlund agreed to train with The Hulkster, leading to fun skits where Mean...
While it turns out that Mean Gene Okerlund is actually pretty funny himself, it should never be forgotten what a consummate straight man he was to his interview subjects. One of the best examples of this, is, of course, the infamous Bret Hart promowhere he decided to big-up El Dandy, perpetuate the phrase “jam-up guy,” and exaggerate his pulled gro...
While Mean Gene always came off as a professional, even he had trouble enduring an interview with one-time Intercontinental ChampionKen Patera. As Patera stumbles through a low-energy, rambling promo about his feud with the Heenan Family stable, Okerlund is entirely unable to contain himself, uncontrollably giggling and trying to hide his face. Mea...
