[stndrds79]

bobby i know u are good friends with lanza, but u deserved a better, more articulate well thought out introduction than this man! thaTs the only bad thing about this hall of fame

[solejunkie09]

Dude is amazing hands down he and rock are best on the mic

[BronanTheGNARbarian]

Bobby heenan asking if anybody has any weed is fucking great!

[franner1000]

[VarietyMusicLover]

to pete rose Heenan: i bet on wrestling lol

[franner1000]

The only shit thing about this vid is the real weasel michael cole narrates it...

[vitorbelfort]

@franner1000 haha mark. The fact that you hate cole means he is doing his job..

[stndrds79]

@franner1000 agreed. mene gene should have done it

[MohammedAhadParvez1]

i love bobby heenan one of the greatest managers of all time

[collingwoodrules]

my god bobby heenan has aged so much

[Konni1969]

@collingwoodrules He had throat cancer.

[stndrds79]

@collingwoodrules cancner tends to do that

[panasonicyouth1985]

Jack Lanza sure does make a great storyteller... lol.

Just seemed like he gave up in the end!

[sbrommer83]

Bobby: "How long have you been married sir?"

Guy: "Uhh, 21 years."

Bobby: "Do you realize if you woulda killed her on your wedding night, you'd be out now?"

F'ing EPIC..... Classic Bobby Heenan

[TheCJShamelessFTW]

Growing up,my two comic heroes were Robin Williams and Bobby hennan....and when these two icons pass-on,my world will crumble just a little bit more.

[Dracorex999]

Sorry what was the last thing he said? I couldn't understand.

[beefmong]

@Dracorex999 "Chris Markoff would rear back and kick you in the groin, and as you were going down he'd say "watch the kick" as you were sinking"

[FreelanNAmber]

There's only one Bobby Heenan. Thank God. :)

God bless Bobby Heenan. There's NEVER gonna be another one.

[EddieNeverSleeps]

WILL YOU STOP!!!

[bizyz]

green bay packer coach mike mccarthy has done well in his career but bobby heenan has taken managing star athletes to an altogether higher level.bobby heenans greatness leaves all others in the dust!

[gothicsuperstar]

I really wished that Monsoon would have lived to have seen this.

[NeilFraudstrong]

Bobby is simply a legend.

[danieljames2011]

yeah really who the fucked disliked this?

[chenzo313]

@danieljames2011 prolly current young wwe fans

[Zero91Hero]

Seeing how happy Shane McMahon was. 

[jman61828]

Bobby Heenan dropping an F bomb thanks to Brian Pillman on live tv

[ExMachina70]

He has such quick wit. I love the guy.

[mesolovely1]

u know if you killed her, ud b out by now? lolololol

[rher08]

lol kane in the background when they show pete rose

[krngirl83]

bobby's hall of fame is funny lol could watch all day

[dom44444]

Bobby could have been the host of the Tonight Show, he was that funny.

[LTDANMAN44]

@dom44444 where is the quick wit anymore. i remember him during a match where the midget haiti kid was a corner man and he said that midget was in the Guinness book of world records for 250 sit ups underneith a chevy

[whitestar1dj]

The "Brain" is a legend the one manager everone loved to hate

[doesyourgodcomeinaca]

With that 3 bucks he could of bought TNA!!

[RyanPelley1]

There will never be another like Bobby "The Brain" Heenan.

[MrRosenburg]

after he says it feels good doing it sober does he ask if anyone had weed or am I hearing that wrong?

[Astraldragon1]

Glad he is doing better but at the same time I was sad when this took place..since Wrestlemania 17 was the last time we heared Bobby Heenan when he was healthy , before the cancer and surgry affected his voice.

[BGZ12388]

I tear up every time I watch this

[bookmdano]

My mailman is hunchbacked from carrying all my fan mail. LOL

[jeremiahhammonds]

Anyone who dislikes this has no brain

[DemiLiard]

I can't make it out what he says at 7:09, but it sounds hilarious. Apparently I'm not the only one who didn't understand, you can see Pat Patterson and someone else turning around to Shawn Michaels asking what he said but Shawn doesn't seem to have heard either.

If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it :)

"Oh, one more thing, I've gotta apologize to you people, I've ??? on wrestling"

thanks

[soultheinterrogator]

@DemiLiard He says "I Have bet on wrestling", which was a joke to Pete Rose, who was banned for life from the MLB for Betting on Baseball. You can see Rose cracking up. LOL

[DemiLiard]

@soultheinterrogator Thanks :)

[ElGatoPolloLoco]

@DemiLiard Sounds like he says "I bet on wrestling". He then high-fives Pete Rose.

[brujahbart]

definately the best manager of all time

[schememusic]

haha is that pete rose ?! (5:40)

[MrKing8050]

8:25 did he say "anybody got any weed"?

[roylucier]

@MrKing8050 He did, actually... he was known for being a pot head... and with the cancer lately, you can't blame him

[SoCrucialEnt]

@MrKing8050  i think he did

[salmonmachine]

Mark Madden made 6 accounts...

[cbaldwinjr]

@salmonmachine

And probably ate about four pizzas in that time

[RNC200711]

I think it was great the way the WWE wrestlers rose and cheered Bobby when he talked about his throat cancer

[acp8o8]

wow the two best managers of all time Sensational Sherri and Bobby the Brain Heenan, People say he is ric flair of managers, and people say sensational sherri is like the female version of ric flair. WOW amazing.

[Emshady08]

@acp8o8 nononono heenan=jimmy hart

[dkennedy31326]

man it's crazy looking at these guys now. heenan sitting next to tito. all you can think the whole time is "i remember when" i miss those days even all the cheesy stuff they did back then i miss it.

[0037300]

Watching this reminded me of his commentary on the match between the million dollar man vs virgil at summerslam for the million dollar belt he said "I hope virgil didnt do anything stupid like put a down payment on a boombox or anything"...lmfao...classic heenan...gotta love the brain!

[lesserknowndeadman81]

Who the fuck is disliking this??? honestly.....

[isohockey92]

@lesserknowndeadman81 fucking ard tards

[ameyaganchha]

@lesserknowndeadman81 pencil neck geeks ..thats who

[HagSIN]

@lesserknowndeadman81 Smark assholes who sit in their parent's basement and wanna disrupt the positive aspects of professional wrestling's past is my only guess

[1980redkremlin]

@lesserknowndeadman81

well said

[Musicvidsetc]

@lesserknowndeadman81 You mean besides Tony Schiavone? Who knows, but they're idiots too.

[Tomthestarhartnell]

@lesserknowndeadman81

1) Hogan

2) Jimmy Hart

3) Knobbs

4)Saggs

5) Ultimate Warrior

6) Beefcake

the other six are all current day wwe fans who have no idea of history

[phallictractor]

@lesserknowndeadman81 people who appreciate the heel persona. the brain would laugh at it.

[M45As]

They need to bring back this set up for the hall of fame. Please stop allowing fans to attend, those idiots show no respect.

[stndrds79]

@M45As agreed

[MrFuentes4ever]

best manager ever hands down

[jshudo44]

Bobby "The Brain" Heenan could have had a successful stand up career if he wasn't one the greatest managers in pro wrestling.

[ChubberGlump]

Brooklyn Brawler is a talentless jobber why does he of all people comment on heenan

[stndrds79]

@ChubberGlump i dont undestand that either

[sortedevaras]

What kind of sick dickless humorless fucking loser thumbs down Bobby Heenan?! I weep for all 5 of you and pray you never breed.

[mistamadscientist]

5 people CAN'T TAKE A F'N JOKE!!

[SuperByron81]

this man made the wwf in the early ninetys, a fuckin legend, the brain, the weasel ......the man

[ElConquistadorNo1]

@snoop0851 My fault, man

[ElConquistadorNo1]

@snoop0851 You must be expert in that realm, FrankieFagBoy

[ItsFrankieBoy]

@snoop0851 Bro are you retarded? The whole world knows that you fuckin jerkoff

[ElConquistadorNo1]

@ItsFrankieBoy Relax- don't do it- when your boyfriend wants to cum all over your face

[thebgbb]

5 people have a wedgie.

[frankrizzo51]

Bobby bled on me in 1973 at Crown Point High School.

[stndrds79]

@frankrizzo51 really??

[3reformer]

5 pepole have no brains :)

[phrostynutzz]

Heenan is so fucking funny.

[mysticx0]

Ive bet on wrestling!

hahahaha! classic Bobby!

[MrFnClean]

Lanza proved right here that he really needed Heenan to talk for him. Of course, with that story, Lanza could've had Helen Keller talking to him and it would've been an improvement.

[stndrds79]

@MrFnClean ur so right

[playadominical]

When I was a kid I hated The Weasel soooooo much.

[11gringo]

the standing ovation was well deserved. the brain wasn't just a manager he was THE manager! no one could hold a candle to him back in the 80's and 90's he was so much better than jimmy hart & mr fuji and the others.. the wedgie joke was funny as hell just shows even with throat cancer the brain is still the best and still can entertain them go heenan!

[ItsFrankieBoy]

Look at the smug smile on Pat Patterson that flaming child molesting homo.

[lowgenius]

I don't care if you're even a wrestling fan, this is an amazing expression of the kind of gratitude every person who performs should have for their chance to do what they do. There are a lot of things about the wrestling business, and in the entertainment industry in general, that aren't good.

This man, in this moment, is absolutely everything that is. Everyone that's ever given a speech or performed on a stage can learn all they need to know from this man.

Much appreciated, Mr. Heenan.

[DavidAddison9653]

"Excuse the way I sound... I had a weggie." LOL

[ChadTheWrestleManiac]

Jack Lanza's joke was awful! lmfao

[TheCJShameless]

You know God loves Bobby when he makes sure even cancer doesnt shut him up

[theIneluctable1]

dude is so funny

[merlinforever]

The Manager you Love to Hate... LOVE YOU BOBBY.. like a classic line Gorilla Monsoon would say"STOP IT" LOL....

[ultimatewarriorz1]

bobby is classic & a legend !

[Halloffamer333]

I'm glad they got ride of those plaques and went with rings.

[steverenney]

As good as Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler are for me they'll never beat Bobby Heenan and Gorilla Monsoon.

[MrsWLeach]

In that last clip of him Bobby looked a bit like Carroll O'Connor (Archie Bunker. )

[superrandy69]

like pat patterson said greatest manager ever in wrestling history

[PigOnGas]

Bobby is pure class. Without any question the best color commentator of all the time, sharpest mind in wrestling, a great blow to wrestling with his departure and it has not been the same for me since.. Monsoon and Heenan = magic

[Shaunmccall101]

/bobby's voice before his health went south was so distinguishable. truly a legend

[HagSIN]

Couldn't wipe the huge smile from my face if you tried. Bobby is really cool and he's jsut allota fun to watch.

[mangadrummer85]

greatest manager ever...and also a great and funny commentator with Monsoon!

[NewWaveFan1]

This is fucking epic!

[funkiersnoog]

This is the only Hall of Fame speech that was better than Iron Sheik's.

[degenx1973]

Greatest stick man in the history of wrestling

[MopUpMark]

Some spineless douche dared thumb down this video...

[dansaint2249]

Damn this is fun sober....anyone got any weed?! Gotta love Bobby

[herculean67]

Absolutely the best ever., WWE needs the brain.

[dansaint2249]

@herculean67 he can't talk anymore. Last surgery they did they had to cut his vocal chords to remove the cancer.

[MrsWLeach]

@dansaint2249 NO!! Is this first hand info? I've heard all sorts of stuff making its way over the net and I wanna make sure this isn't 3rd or fourth word of mouth! I do hope that's NOT true, though! That would be tragic!!!!

[94Lyght]

1 of the greatest men to live not to mention 1 of the funniest men on earth.

[flashingarrows]

"Win if you can, lose if you must, but ALWAYS cheat!!" (The Bobby Heenan Family)

[bigrigbob2010]

@flashingarrows That was Jesse Ventura's motto pre- heenan, the brain was in AWA I believe at the time

[RBell86403]

@flashingarrows That was Jesse "The Body" Ventura's motto too. :-)

[dstylez10]

@flashingarrows wasn't that Ventura's line

[CaptainShinyJunk]

@dstylez10 It originally was coined by Jesse, yes and Bobby used it after. Both classics

[CJShameless]

Lanza would put people to sleep reading a Stop sign

Bobby is a legend....the part where he wishes Monsoon was there always gets me...they were like Abbott and Costello...priceless and irreplaceable lol

[MrAviatorpilot]

Bobby Heenan is the best manager that pro wrestling has ever had and will ever have!

[ochoastl]

It's probably just me, but Lanza's speech seemed like an epic fale.

[clyl]

@ochoastl nope, you're right, it bombed. 

[dansaint2249]

@ochoastl just be glad this one is edited. I got the Bobby Heenan DVD and they have the entire Lanza speech and it's dreadful. Luckily Heenan more than made up for it

[MrsWLeach]

@ochoastl If you wanna hear some great heenan stories, key in Gene Okerlund Shoot. They've been friends for years!

[teddykgb33160]

bobby is a classic, i remember growing up listening to him,

[MrsWLeach]

@teddykgb33160 Me, too. From AWA to WWF! You hated him and yet, you liked him because he was so funny even when you were hating him. THAT, Bobby, is the definition of PARADOX; Two contradicting ideas that somehow, make sense. Bobby mentioned, in his first book, that Nick B. used words like Paradox, and it confused him.

[ilikethecoke]

Seeing Heenan and Ventura makes me wonder, did they ever commentate together? I'd have loved to hear that.

[JonathanVonErich]

@ilikethecoke Well the only time I remember hearing them together was at WrestleMania 3, in the match between The Rougeau Brothers and The Dream Team. Gorilla and Jesse were the commentators and suddenly Bobby arrive and decide to join the Broadcast team, and of course the two heels, Bobby and Jesse, teams up against poor Gorilla. Haha classic stuff.

[cavalierfan1995]

three bucks?is that all?

thats including the bonus!

lol

[cole003f]

THIS IS WHAT YOU CALL RESPECT

the respect that audience gave when he told them his recovering from throat cancer & feeling great ABSOLUTELY GREAT

[bigpoppa2112]

Bobby Heenan is wrestling

[ScotteDio]

Heenan was funniest commentor ever!

[jerzeefranky3475]

pete rose was/is LEGITIMATELY enjoying himself on here...i wonder if its cuz hes actually in a hof of some sort...& cuz hes thinking "hey...id never have this much fun in cooperstown when/if they ever let me in2 there"...or...it gave/gives him face time 2 laugh at the brain stuff (which...btw...is TRULY A+ material)...

[wwedeadman85]

the weazelz the best

[ithemanish1]

Thank you Bobby

[grate4life]

god i love sitting back on the couch and watching some of the greats do speeche in current times.

[some145]

kane in a suit??????????

[clikcerticker]

@some145 i know thats scarier than him normal

[some145]

this guy was an amazing commentator

[MrPaaaaaaaaddyPADDY]

Heenan = God of professional Wrestling!

[rudeawakening101]

Bobby Heenan...greatest fucking manager of ALL-TIME.

[Niklarus2010]

I miss Bobby. He was the freaking greatest of all time!

[Swampdog36]

Would love to see Bobby Heenah come back like the godfather of the mafia, have stables and managers under him. WWE/TNA could learn a lot from his career

[HitmanBravo]

NO ONE thumbs down Bobby the Brain Heenan!

[pladampa]

@HitmanBravo just noticed that that kicks ass usually some asshole thumbs down. Not Heenan!

[jimmymac63]

@HitmanBravo My ABSOLUTE FAVORITE HEAL/MANAGER/FUNNY MAN of WWF/WWWF/WWE! We love you Bobby!

[crusader037972]

@HitmanBravo you're right...the 5 people who thumbed down The BRAIN are nobody...

[creedstruth]

Bobby the brain henan has throat cancer hes lost tons of weight which is a symptom , however the report he fell into a Coma , was a bullshit report from Lanny Poffo who got his facts fudged. Since Hennan has lost weight hes fell multiple times and had to have screws put into his hip , and fell again and had to have his hip worked on.. He's at home and is doing well...

[MrsWLeach]

@creedstruth There is a youtube page where you can hear Jessica Heenan (it was around Christmas time) and Bobby was in a coma but it was medically induced. That was a while back. Hope it's true that he's doing well. A friend of mine told me his dad met 'the brain' back in the day, and that he was a really nice guy. Go figure!

[sebouhsimon]

man that's sucks i hope he's okay

[nlp3000]

I read that he's slipped into a coma :-/

[Aikidolover29]

Man he is awesome im so glad he got most of his voice back he was and still is classic

[x0astro]

No one can EVER be as good as Bobby The Brain Heenan the best Manager in all professional sports.......

[JonathanVonErich]

I just read that Bobby is in terrible shape and that he might not live until the end of the year....So sad. We love you Bobby !!

[solaflair]

@JonathanVonErich apparently he is at home resting his hip and not in a coma. lets keep our fingers crossed that hes ok and isnt in hospital.

[MrsWLeach]

@JonathanVonErich Where did you read that? I hope it's not true. I mean, so many stories are circulating.

[JonathanVonErich]

@MrsWLeach I read that 4 months ago on all the wrestling news site. Since then I have read that Bobby was feeling better but not feeling too great. We don't have news about his condition since 2 months at least. But no news = good news i guess...

[MrsWLeach]

@JonathanVonErich This is true. No news IS good news in situations like that. Thanks for the update. How do you know Bobby? (Hope that doesn't sound rude to ask. I'm kinda nosey)

[beefmong]

I love the way they all get such a kick out of listening to Bobby, he's such a funny guy

[GTCism]

I watched this guy for years, he never seized to make me laugh, he is hilarious. I think if he wasn't into wrestling, he could have made it as a stand up comic.

[ovafiend]

'arnold skaaland who was 63 then!' that was killer LMAO!!

[quietstormftw13]

Bobby Heenan, Jesse Ventura, and Jerry Lawler were the only heel announcers that didn't annoy me because they were/are entertaining. Matt Striker, Michael Cole, and Mark Madden suck and not entertaining at all
