Out of the millions of heenan quotes to post as a tribute why would she pick this one? :wthwtf:

Because she is an idiot.

Even I have to come through and pay respect him. Grew up in the 80s so I saw a lot of his work. Rest in peace.

My dad and I would always watch wrestling when I was growing up, but my mom hated it. She loved Bobby Heenan though and always found him entertaining. He really transcended across all audiences.

R.I.P.
At least he's not suffering anymore.

 

[soulfuljah]

Didn't even know. I knew he was getting worse each year, so he doesn't have to suffer anymore but still
All the greats from my childhood..

RIP, wrestling legend...

This shyt gotta die with Heenan. It was fukking IN CHARACTER for him to question Hogan's allegiance. He never trusted nor liked Hogan. And given the turmoil the company was in (kayfabe wise) it would make sense for a paranoid heel announcer to question the babyface which he always despised. Also, logically it made sense because Hall/Nash had been wrestling by themselves without their third man for some time. It was actually the perfect storm of events for the heel announcer to be proven right. Even given all of that it was fukking unheard of for Hogan to be a bad guy so Heenan's ranting was just looked at as in character. This is a true neckbeard narrative that Heenan "gave away" the heel turn.

It made total sense for his character to say it, but putting that question of whether Hogan was turning or not into the viewers minds might've lessened the shock of the moment a little bit.

Obviously it didnt to the fans in the arena, but they weren't listening to Heenans commentary.

She truly is the WOAT

Fixed.

 

[FlyGuy]

before my time, but he looks to be a top class entertainer. I didn't know him aside from hearing his name dropped, but the Steph quote along with these kinda goes

If there's a single most entertaining person in the history of pro wrestling, I'm pretty sure Brain is at the very top of that list. The Weasel. The Brain. The GOAT.

 

[Bonefan32]

Rip to a great wrestling personality, there will never be another like him

[Rosecrans]
