- Legendary announcer "Mean" Gene Okerlund, who works for WWE on a limited capacity as the host of Vintage Collection and Classics On Demand programming, revealed in an interview with the St. Paul Pioneer Press, that he intends to work for the sports-entertainment organization for at least three more years.
"As long as I can travel," said Okerlund, who is 70-years-old.
Okerlund also weighed in on fellow Minnesota native Brock Lesnar's affiliation with WWE.
"Brock probably is one of the top three stars in the organization," Okerlund said. "We've got a pay-per-view coming up, 'No Rules,' which is right down his alley."
It is also noted in the article that Okerlund resides in Sarasota, Florida and spends summers near McGregor, Minnesota, on Big Sandy Lake.
