Jack Tunney whom was the Boss of the WWF before the days of Attitude has died at age 68.

Jack Tunney served as on air president from the 80s until 1994. Tunney was instrumental in the World Title tournament at Wrestlemania 4 in 1988 as well as the controversial Hulk Hogan vs. Undertaker bout at Survivor Series in 1991.

Tunney left the WWF in 1994, soon after Vince McMahon would acknowledge himself as the owner of the WWF, which he had been all along. Tunney never had any true creative control, but was always looked upon as the boss during the days of Hulkmania and before the Austin era.

That's sad news.

This thread should be in the Chit Chat- Sports section, by the way.
