Bobby Heenan is a former professional wrestler, manager and color commentator for both the WWE and WCW.
Manager
Despite infrequent participation as a wrestler, Heenan will perhaps be remembered most for being one of the most hated managers in WWE history. From 1984 until his departure from the company in 1993, Heenan managed only heel wrestlers like Jesse Ventura, Andre the Giant, King Kong Bundy, Rick Rude and Mr. Perfect.
Commentator
