Wrestling Legend Ole Anderson dies at age __ – WWE Universe mourns the loss

WWE is sad to learn that Ole Anderson has passed away.

A founding member of The Four Horsemen, Ole's tough style and gruff demeanor helped define the group as one of the greatest stables in the history of sports entertainment.

Trained by WWE Hall of Famer Verne Gagne, Anderson was a prolific and decorated tag team wrestler, most famous alongside Arn Anderson in The Minnesota Wrecking Crew.

When the duo joined forces with Ric Flair, Tully Blanchard and manager JJ Dillon, they established the iconic stable known as The Four Horsemen.

During their legendary career, The Four Horsemen feuded with the likes of Dusty Rhodes, The Rock 'N Roll Express, The Road Warriors and many more. The group set a standard of style, attitude and success that has inspired all the stables that followed.

WWE extends its condolences to Anderson's family, friends and fans.
