#1 Bobby Heenan

The greatest manager of all time

The greatest manager of all time

Hilariously funny, outrageously biased, financially corrupt and the best manager of all time. Bobby "The Brain" Heenan was simply fantastic, a loud mouth villain who would take tremendous beatings from babyfaces who morphed into a fantastic manager and commentator.

He was a rare blend of insight and humour who could generate a lot of heat. He clearly was a mainstay, prime time villain during Hulkamania. Hulkamania managed to overshadow everything, but 'The Brain' carved out a corner and was a huge success.

On the mic, he could make you laugh or mad, while putting over his charges perfectly. He was also a fantastic color commentator with so many great one-liners over the years; he and Gorilla Monsoon being my all-time favorite broadcast team.

Anyone that claims that Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler were the greatest announcer duo in history clearly has not listened to the chemistry of Heenan and Monsoon.

Bobby Heenan was a character the fans loved to hate and the heels would feel that heat by aligning themselves with him. There is only one Bobby 'The Brain' Heenan and will never be another one like him.
