Former WWE tag team champion Bobby “Sir Mo” Horne, best known as one half of the 1990s duo Men on a Mission, has died at the age of 58.
His death was confirmed on Sunday night, October 19, 2025, in Texas, following complications from a severe blood infection and pneumonia, according to statements shared by his family.
Horne gained prominence in the early 1990s when he teamed up with Nelson Frazier Jr., popularly known as Mabel or Viscera, and their manager Oscar, to form the tag team Men on a Mission.
Known for their vibrant hip-hop personas and community-focused image, the group became fan favourites during the World Wrestling Federation’s (now WWE) “New Generation Era.”
In March 1994, Men on a Mission captured the WWE Tag Team Championship after defeating The Quebecers at a live event in London.
Horne remained with the company until 1996 before continuing his career on the independent wrestling circuit across the United States.
Beyond performing, Horne later co-founded SOAR Championship Wrestling in Texas with his wife, where he dedicated his time to training and mentoring up-and-coming wrestlers.
The veteran performer had battled serious health issues in recent years, including a kidney transplant in 2018 and a near-fatal COVID-19 infection in 2022.
Despite these challenges, he continued to make appearances at wrestling events and remained active within the wrestling community.

Fellow wrestlers, including Booker T, praised his mentorship and contributions to the sport.
Born in 1967, Bobby Horne’s career spanned more than three decades. He is survived by his wife, children, and extended wrestling family. Funeral arrangements will be announced later.
