Last month, we heard the unfortunate news of legendary wrestler and promoted Verne Gagne passing away at 89. He's widely considered among the most important men in the business, and responsible for the training of major names in the business as well.
His funeral was held last week in Minnesota, with eulogies by his son Greg Gagne, and former employee "Mean" Gene Okerlund. Unfortunately, it seemed as if things went downhill from there.
During the eulogy being delivered by Greg Gagne, the Wrestling Observer says that Backlund interrupted and started cutting a heel promo. It was said to be "ridiculously out of place."

This sounds really funny.
I hope the footage leaks.
