By Mike Johnson on 2021-12-08 15:58:00

Jim Ross announced several minutes ago that WWE Hall of Famer Jack "Blackjack" Lanza, who was one half of the Blackjacks with the late Bob "Blackjack Mulligan" Windham has passed away at the age of 87:

Lanza and Mulligan were the WWWF Tag Team Champions together while Lanza and Bobby Duncum Sr. held the AWA World Tag Team titles. 

As Ross noted, after his in-ring career ended, Lanza was an agent (the equivalent of a producer today) for many years for the WWF.

Everyone at PWInsider.com sends our deepest condolences to Lanza's family, friends and fans.  We'll have more on Lanza's career later tonight.
