Howard Finkel In Really Bad Shape

[Rell84shots]

Saw it in the random thread but this GOAT announcer deserves his own thread.

During his recent podcast, Jerry Lawler noted the following about longtime WWE announcer Howard Finkel:

“I just heard not long ago that Howard is in really, really bad health. Not good at all. He may have had a stroke. I’m not sure but I just know that he’s not doing well.”

 

[MenacingMonk]

Not the GOAT ring announcer

 

[jackswstd]

Not The Fink hope he recovers.

 

[Toe Jay Simpson]

Aside from JR, that man was the voice of the WWF

 

[Heelish]

Nobody did it better. I hope he gets better.

Cole and King for fukking up his guest announcer spot years back.

 

[Vic Damone. Jr]

 

[MushroomX]

why give him a stroke, why take away his GOAT voice? fukk this world.

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

Not the Fink. Dude could make the shyttiest match feel like a big fight feel. Hope he pulls through.

I met him with my dad in a KFC when I was in 2nd grade on a trip to my grandmas house. I wasn't aware until the next week of RAW that I had called him Earl Hebner. Real cool dude though. Signed our map and answered my corny questions.

i noticed Fink was fat as fukk the last time i saw him too...homie dont look like he been treating his body right

And....NEW... WWF Champion Yoko-Zu-Naaaa

His cadence was always impressive, he knew just how long to pause before announcing the intros and the winners. Back at Judgement Day 2000 that pause and then announcing that HHH was the winner made the place explode.

 

[puppetmaster]

Him announcing Taz at the Rumble 2000 was amazing.

Is Fink in the HOF?
