Bearer: the WWE legend has passed away

The Alabama-born mouthpiece made his WWE debut in 1991 as manager of The Undertaker and over the next 20 years worked both with and against the Phenom as he made a name for himself.

Bearer, famed for his milky-white skin, jet-black suit and high-pitched voice, was in the Demon of Death Valley's corner for his match with fellow Brother of Destruction, Kane, at WrestleMania XX in 2004.

But he formed an alliance with Kane when the Devil's Favourite Demon battled The Undertaker in 2010, and helped his new cohort as he embarked on a run with the World Heavyweight Championship.

Bearer often fell victim to Kane's opponents, though, and on his last appearance in the WWE, in April 2012, he was locked in a freezer by the Big Red Monster's then rival, Randy Orton.
