In honour of Bobby The Brain Heenan's death. I loved Heenan, without doubt the best commentator and manager in history. I'm pretty much gutted about this one.

Throat cancer since 02, that's a long damn battle. I wish I had personal memories of him to comment, but I don't think I do. I know he was a huge influence though and a great heel. Before my time in WWF and then in WCW which I didn't really watch.

He was a huge part of wrestling when I started getting into it, back in the day. Rumble 1992 is a work of commentary genius, him and Monsoon just made it so much lore watchable. His one liners were just brilliant, but never put himself over more than the talent. As a manager, broadcast journalist, he'll never be bettered.

Long battle and really changed his appearance he looked like a completely different person to what he was so skinny and fragile R.I.P
