Bobby Horne, who is best known to 90s wrestling fans as Mo from Men On A Mission, has been struggling with his health for several years and required a kidney transplant in 2018. Unfortunately, things haven’t improved, and earlier this year, he divulged he also needed a liver transport. Sadly, in addition, he has been battering Pneumonia and, due to lung damage, now requires oxygen 24/7.
Obviously, this is a substantial financial burden, and while Horne does have insurance, it doesn’t cover everything. Therefore a GoFundMe has been launched to raise funds for the former WWE star. And as of writing, $1,395 has been raised from 23 generous donors toward his goal of $50,000.
Horne broke into the wrestling business in 1991 alongside Nelson Frazier, who would later become known as Mabel and Viscera. Due to their humungous size, they caught the eye of Vince McMahon, who introduced them in 1993 as fun-living rappers Men On A Mission alongside a manager named Oscar. The team would go on to win the WWE Tag Team Championships from The Quebecers on a houseshow in the UK, with it long rumored the title change was a botch due to Pierre Ouellet being unable to kick out in time with a near-500lb Frazier on top of him. Giving credence to this was that MOM would drop the titles back just two days later.
Regardless of whether the title change was a mistake or not, it was still acknowledged on television, and subsequently, Frazier received a massive push by winning the King of The Ring tournament in 1995, which led to Mo becoming a manager named “Sir Mo.” The following year though, both men would depart WWE, and Mo has since worked the indies and even opened his own promotion SOAR Championship Wrestling in 2019.
