Heenan sold those punches like The Rock sells Stone Cold Stunners.

Rip one of the GOATs
He used to have me dead consistently with his little slick comments
*Duggan cuts a typical Duggan promo*
*Cut to Heenan and Andre w Mean Gene*
Heenan casually starts his promo "Boy, Jim Duggan...What a cross-eyed sicko. Anyway lemme tell you about Andre..."

Agree 100%. The biggest thing people forget or dont know about that is that was Heenan's schtick all the time. He said shyt like that all the time, about Hogan and the other faces. Part of what made him a great heel and talker is he wasn't just some cartoony, 1 -dimensional heel that said mean things about the face because he was a bad guy and that's the story. No, Heenan had a way of turning it all around and positioning himself and his stable as the good guys and always accusing Hogan of being the real heel if, you were paying attention
It was just the right amount of plausibility, sincerity and wink-wink trolling/bullshyt that it was always interesting and entertaining. Ventura was good at this style too.The other thing is like you said it was unheard of, so Heenan accusing Hogan of secretly being behind everything and being a horrible person was normal and no one thought it was actually about to happen.
Its as much a part of the classic moment as the legdrop and the trash in the ring.
I just remembered that the ROH PPV is this Friday.
been watching some AWA stuff from Heenan. that had to be his prime. I know we all love his wwf stuff, but I'm watching this stuff with him and Bockwinkel and it's basically an old school version of Heyman and Brock. exception being bockwinkel told talk also.
