Bobby "The Brain" Heenan

 

I was very saddened to hear about the passing of The Brain. He was one of the hallmarks of my childhood who I only grew to appreciate more with age. I'd love to see some of the GDS community members share some of their favorite Bobby moments and one liners.

 

I'll start by sharing some classic "Brain Scan" clips:

<p>Best wrestling manager ever.

<p>I was very sad to hear about this yesterday. He was hands down the best manager and color commentator wrestling's ever seen, and I know we'll never see his like again.</p><p> </p><p>

<p>Well, I can't say I didn't see it coming. As iconic and legendary as he well, he couldn't fight throat cancer forever. He either had to beat it, or the cancer had to beat it. And unfortunately for us, the cancer won.</p><p> </p><p>

It's a sad thing. Then again, anytime a wrestler dies, it's a sad thing.</p>

I started watching the WWF shortly after WrestleMania II and boy did I hate Bobby. Then a few years later I did a 180 and by that point I started to hate Hulk and I realized that Bobby was really funny.</p><p> </p><p> Capt. Lou, Mr. Fuji, and Classy Freddie Blassie, it sucks seeing all the classic era managers pass away (Or at least what I consider classic era, I was too young to see the Grand Wizard of Wrestling). Now it is just Johnny V and Jimmy Hart left.</p>
