R.I.P. Bobby Heenan
If you didn't watch Bobby Heenan on WWF television in the eighties, and then as one of the funniest commentators of the nineties as part of WCW, then you missed out on two decades of pure comedic gold. I was pouring through the tributes this morning and I was pleased to see Heenan recognized by his peers as one of the most important figures in the history of the professional wrestling business. His wit and humor were truly one of a kind, as was his ability to be the butt of the joke while keeping a straight face and acting angry about the whole thing. A big part of my childhood just passed away.
