Guest Boo_Bradley Report post Posted August 6, 2003 (edited) Inspired by recieving a tape of Mr.Fuji managing Kamala, I chose to try and list every star whom the Old School managers guided. I'm sure to overlook an obvious guy or two BTW, I realize that going in. Jimmy Hart Hart Foundation Danny Davis Greg Valentine KK Bundy The Funks Honky Tonk Man Rougeau Bros (Mountie) Money Inc Hogan Beefcake Nasty Boys Earthquake Dino Bravo Adrain Adonis Tyfoon Martin/Kai JJ Funk Mr.Fuji Jim Niethart Super Ninja Orient Express Kamala Sika Powers of Pain Muraco (Orton?) Yokozuna Demolition Killer Kahn Berzerker Johnny Valient Beefcake Demolition Valentine Bravo Slick Bossman Akeem (OMG) Warlord Hercules Roma Kamala Butch Reed Martel Iron Shiek Nikoli Volkoff Boris Zuhkhov Humperdink Bigelow Orndorff Heenan Studd Bundy Missing Link Hercules Adonis (?) (Traded with Jimmy Hart?) Barbarian Islanders Brooklyn Brawler Terry Taylor ANDRE Curt Henning Harley Race Moolah Ken Patera Arn Tully Paul Orndorff Rick Rude Cornette Heavenly Bodies Yokozuna Bulldog Owen Vader * Sal Sincere- an associate around Rocky Miavia's early months? *Shinobi- Wasn't he Cornette's hired gun? Whippleman Bertha Faye Well Dunn Kwang Adom Bomb Giant Gonzalez Mr. Hughes BB Busick Okay time to date myself: Fred Blaisse Hogan Ventura Iron Shiek Volkoff (help?) I'm afraid The Wiz was deceased at the time I was born, so I can't do him justice and Capt Lou's list would break all sorts of Bandwidth boundries... Please Help and Add!

Guest WrestlingDeacon Report post Posted August 6, 2003 Vallient managed Valentine too while he and Beefcake were the Dream Team. Heenan managed or was linked to Sherri and Moolah briefly at intervals. Heenan also had King Harley Race and he later gave that gimmick to Haku when Race retired. You could also add Freddie Blassie and the Grand Wizard to that list of managers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was brought in to manage Jesse Ventura, but Jesse came down with some illness and Big John Studd was the substitute It was meant to imply that was during Buddy Rose's 83-84 run, so that no one would think Heenan managed him from 90-91 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is the Buddy Rose run with him as a manager done in AWA? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
