!!! "Mean" Gene Okerlund (Eugene Okerlund, 1993-2001)
* BaldOfAwesome
* DeadpanSnarker
* DirtyOldMan: During WCW's Final Years.
* {{Jerkass}}: After Wrestling/{{Madusa}} lost her match at ''WCW The Great American Bash 1997'' and had to "retire," Gene showed up and utterly buried her, saying, "her career is finished, toast, over," with the crowd responding "Leave her alone!"
* NonActionGuy
* RedBaron: "Mean Gene"
* SeenItAll: In an interview with Harlem Heat, Wrestling/BookerT, calls out Hulk Hogan and accidentally makes use of his NWordPrivileges. While Booker was embarrassed and manager, Wrestling/{{Sherri|Martel}} couldn't help but laugh, Gene just turned around and interviewed Stevie Ray without missing a beat like nothing happened, especially considering that [[PrecisionFStrike he's said worse on Live TV]].

* BaldOfAwesome



* HoistByHisOwnPetard: He infamously said that Wrestling/MickFoley as WWF Champion would 'put a lot of butts in seats' sarcastically, leading to millions of fans switching over to watch Foley win the belt on Raw.
** While he was forced by Wrestling/EricBischoff to bury Foley on Nitro, Schiavone himself came up with the 'butts in seats' on the fly. However, he'd show regret right away as he called Mick Foley to apologize days after that Nitro aired.
* ItsTheBestWhateverEver: He proclaimed almost everything to be 'The greatest/biggest event in the history of our great sport!'
* LargeHamAnnouncer: Was known for his over-the-top style of delivery.
* TheNicknamer: Gave Mike Tenay his.



* {{Pornstache}}: Early in his career.
* ProductPlacement: Shilling WCW itself.
* YouKeepUsingThatWord: "Literally".

While it's hard for me to pinpoint exactly when Schiavone returned to WCW, he's been back since at least 1991, as he was commentator at Starrcade of that year.
