Voltaire 4,593 Posted September 17, 2017 Oh no. This one hurts. Great heel manager. Despite how despicable he was, it's impossible not to love a guy that makes you laugh that much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They just had stand in the background, flex, make angry intimidating faces, and growl. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brock Lesnar is an embarrassment to today's WWE Sh1t, Braun Strowman is better on the mic than he is. Paul Heyman is terrible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

patweisers44 710 Posted September 18, 2017 has no one mentioned "The Weasel" yet? That nickname was given to him by The Bruiser, both of whom wrestled in the Detroit Area territory on and off when I was a kid. The Bruiser spent his wrestling off seasons playing for the Packers in the NFL. He was such a great personality that a local radio station had a morning show for years that consisted of a regular dude and then someone else impersonating the Bruiser.

tanatastic 2,061 Posted September 18, 2017 The greatest ever, at multiple things. Best manager, best commentator, just the voice of wrestling overall. I know for a fact I took him for granted watching since I was just a little kid. You can go back now and appreciate his genius. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jesse the Body and Gorilla were good too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
