    Todd Okerlund told TMZ Sports that Gene was in poor health before he fell and broke multiple ribs last month.

Gene, famous for his interviews with stars like Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant and Macho Man Randy Savage, was admitted to a nursing home just four days before he died, Todd says.


Vince McMahon paid tribute to Gene in a statement, telling the site, "It was impossible not to crack a smile whenever 'Mean' Gene Okerlund entered a room. He was the voice behind so many of WWE’s most iconic and entertaining moments, and the WWE family will miss him immensely."
