[Jack of Arcades]

Heenan, one of the best ever personalties in wrestling.

If Captain Lou doesn't win this, the voting is rigged! He was in Cindi Lauper's video for God sakes!

Here he is with the other greats: Classy Freddie Blassie and the Grand Wizard.

Elizabeth was Macho Man's wife. She only managed others when they were broken up. If I recall correctly, one was Rick Rude.

[Soul Daddy]

It's Heenan. But theme songs don't come any better than "Jive Soul Bro."

[The Stranger]

apparently, you also forgot about:

Too bad she's dead. I still remember being shocked at that.

Heenan had an uncanny ability to get inside the opposing wrestler's head even while on the sideline. Having Heenan as your manager was almost like having another wrestler in the ring with you (because of his tactical brilliance). Plus, if Heenan wasn't able to get inside the opponent's head verbally, he would try to do it with a folding chair. Heenan was also great at distracting the referee so that his wrestler had a little extra time to eye gouge.

As best announcing team, I nominate Jesse "The Mind/Body" Ventura and Mean Gene Okerlund. Those two could disect a match like no other.

[A_C_Slater]

Heenan was hilarious and his use of the word "hamanaggar" was mangnific!

I suggest changing the poker slang term of "donk" to describe a weak player to the more descriptive term of "hamanaggar."

Anybody can be in a Cindy Lauper video.

I prefer to remember Mrr. Albano as being tthe only man who had a heart so big he could tame the Wild Samoans and a love so deep he could find redemption for 'George the Animal' Steele'

Truly a rennaissance man.

(Is this what I wasted my first post on, always dreamed it would be about poker)

[JoeU]

Excellent first post.

Welcome aboard.
