Cause of death has not been announced, but the legendary Finkel had been in poor health for years. Jerry Lawler had mentioned last year that he had a stroke, and it was no secret that he had been very frail for quite some time. In honor of Finkel...
THIS POST IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL! |

Guys like Finkle, Mean Gene, Bobby Heenan, Monsoon, Ross, Lawler etc are part of what made wrestling during the 1990s special. You have the performers and they put on a show. But it’s that wealth of colorful ancillary personalities that contribute to the ecosystem and further elevate the product.
RIP Howard Finkel great voice and personality |
