My favorite " Heel

Heel always be "The Captain" to me.

Awful news.

Bobby the brain. There's a name I hadn't heard in a while. Man I wish wrestling still had that magical feel to me like when I was a kid. Maybe he can be Andre's manager in the sky assuming they made peace.

The first to join the bunch in the sky.

This truly sucks. The greatest heel manager and the greatest heel commentator in the history of professional wrestling has passed on. There'll never be another one. His quick wit and backhanded compliments set the standard for how a heel commentator was supposed to be, and his antics as the manager of the Heenan Family really raised the bar of entertainment and comedy in the WWF. I can't even think of the great 1992 Royal Rumble without recalling Heenan constantly belly aching that that wasn't "Fair to Flair".

GOAT color man. Made me laugh every Nitro broadcast.

Gone too soon.

Such an eloquent wordsmith. We'll miss his rhetorical flair.

And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.
