News about Arn Anderson

Ole Anderson, a wrestling legend who was best known as a member of the original Four Horseman group, died on Monday at the age of 81. The cause of death was not revealed, but he was previously diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2007 and had been living with limited mobility. Friends and relatives of the Minneapolis native and US Army veteran's death were informed of his death. Born Alan Rogowski, Anderson cultivated one of wrestling's most popular heel characters and was well-known throughout the sport for his ability to cut a promo. He then became a top booker for Georgia Championship Wrestling, which appeared on Ted Turner's TBS from the 1970s to 1984. One fan wrote on X, repeating remarks made by hundreds of others on Monday, 'Just saw the Ole Anderson news.' 'RIP to one of wrestling's most influential historical figures, who was also a top-tier promoter and a great booker at his peak.' Anderson and his fellow Four Horseman, Arn Anderson, Ric Flair, and Tully Blanchard, will compete in various competitions, including Mid Atlantic Championship Wrestling and Turner's World Championship Wrestling later this year.
