"WWE extends its condolences to White’s family, friends and fans."

WWE stars Shawn Michaels and Big E were among those who paid tribute to the referee.

"Hebner and his brother Earl helped author one of the most memorable moments in WWE history when Andre The Giant and Hogan met on WWE Main Event for the WWE Title in 1988. With Dave locked in a closet, Earl and ‘Million Dollar Man’ Ted DiBiase laid a trap for The Hulkster. As Dave joined Earl in the ring, he had the befuddled Hogan seeing double in disbelief," the company said.

Earl Hebner tweeted about Dave’s passing.
