Heenan brought his "A" game

Recommended Posts

I know there have been many Bobby Heenan threads, but I don't know if he has been any better than at Royal Rumble 92. His comments are the only thing that prevents the FF button during the Bushwhacker match. And of course it is safe to say that the commentary during the Rumble match was lengendary. Any other PPV's where he was on his game the whole show?

He was really on through most of late '91-'93 with the Flair storyline to play off of.

 

There were old Prime Time wrestling shows where he was like Robin Williams on crack the whole time. I've been wanted to find some vignettes from there and episodes of the Bobby Heenan show.

 

I enjoy his commentary at the first Uncensored, probably his best in WCW. He realized how stupid all the matches were and really got in some zingers.

I don't know if any of you guys have ever seen the countdown to WM 8, but Heenan is gold. Him and Monsoon were doing classic stuff the whole show.

Hennan/Gorilla's commentary for Tatanka/Martel is fucking PRICELESS. Not because of the match, but about Flair losing the title. Just classic stuff.

No doubt! I think Monsoon even called Rick Martel, The Model Ric Flair twice by mistake they were so wound up with the previous match.

Oh yeah, the comments during the Brunzell-Flair match was great!

I thought his last show (Series 1993) was great...Did he know he was leaving at the time?

For some reason I remember Gorilla Monsoon kicking him out of Monday Night Raw and throwing a roll of toilet paper at him outside the arena.

I remember that...How did that go about?

 

Wasn't Heenan just sitting there and suddenly he was escorted out with his briefcase...

 

 

I thought there was some sort of Heenan must leave WWF if that guy wins...

Ya Heenan's last ever appearance was in December when Gorilla kicked him out. Then Heenan's briefcase spilt revealing endless roles of toilet paper.

 

Funny story about that. Heenan says that Pat Patterson suggested that women's lingirie fall out of the suitcase, and Bobby told him "I think you and I pack different, Pat."

Summerslam 1992 Heenan is gold. During Savage/Warrior and even moreso during Hart/Bulldog.

Don't ask why, but I find the "And this is another match, where I could care less who wins!" comment hysterical. I'm sure Vince felt that was a nice thing to say about the Main Event of a very important ppv.

 

That was what was great about The Brain. He didn't slip into "WWF Mode". He was just being The Brain 24/7.

"That's a heckuva robe on Flair. If you're gonna be fair to Flair, you gotta be fair and say only a man as fair as Flair would come to WrestleMania an wear a robe..."

 

"WILL YOU STOP!!!!!"

I still mark out for whenever Monsoon yells at Heenan for saying something stupid and Heenan's only response is,

 

"Ya talkin' to ME?!?"

From Rumble 92 to Summerslam 92, Brain was the greatest colour commentator there will ever be.

Heenan was just amazing...He could work with ANYONE.

 

I still think Ventura was better overall but Heenan is a god among men.

I forget what tape, but Shawn Michaels had a match on Coliseum Video and when Shawn was walking down the aisle, Bobby started whistling along to "Sexy Boy", and all of a sudden you hear Macho Man smack the shit out of him and Bobby start to choke....

 

"He broke my whistle!"

 

funny shit :P

The Brain was the man, too bad he doesn't work anymore. He was one of the good things on Thunder, even though he wasn't at his A game then.
