“Mean” Gene and Ric Flair were very close in their careers. In WCW, Ric Flair would begin many promos with “Mean–Woo! by God, Gene!” Regarding Okerlund’s passing Ric said the following:

If true, Ric will join Hulk Hogan in appearing on Monday’s show to honor the legend of the microphone. Ric shared this clip of his famous WCW promo line:
