A former WWE superstar has passed away at the age of 58.
Bobby Horne, known to fans as Bobby Mo, died following a recent battle with a blood infection and pneumonia. Book Pro Wrestlers, as well as WWE Hall of Famer Leilani Kai shared the news on their respective Facebook page, asking fans to keep Bobby in their prayers.
“It breaks my heart to hear that Bobby Horne, better known to wrestling fans as Sir Mo of Men on a Mission, has passed away,” Leilani posted. “… Rest in peace, my friend. Thank you for every laugh, every kind word, and every night we shared on the road. You’ll be missed by all of us who knew you.”
Horne had been dealing with health issues in recent years, including ailments related to a kidney transplant in 2018. Horne had been in a hospital intensive care unit the past couple months dealing with pneumonia and a blood infection.
Bobby Mo’s WWE Career
Bobby Mo joined Vince McMahon’s World Wrestling Federation in the 1990s, gaining prominence for his work alongside Mabel (aka Viscera/Big Daddy V) as part of the tag team Men On A Mission. The duo captured the WWE Tag Team Championship in 1994 but dropped the titles after a brief reign.
Following Mabel’s King of the Ring victory in 1995, Bobby adopted the name Sir Mo and assisted his partner during Mabel’s feud with The Undertaker. Men On A Mission departed the company in 1996, and Bobby officially retired from professional wrestling in 2007.
WrestleZone extends our condolences to Bobby Mo’s family and friends during this difficult time.
