We are very sad to tell you that WWE Hall of Famer Pat Patterson passes away. He was 79 years old. He was the first ever Intercontinental Champion & trailblazer in many ways. Patterson was also famous for his on-screen timing with Gerald Brisco as Vince McMahon’s ‘stooges’ in the Attitude Era.

Newsweek reported that Patterson was hospitalized in Miami, Florida where he was battling with cancer.

WWE sent out a heartfelt tribute, which includes a note about the ever-lasting mark on the pro-wrestling world.
