WWE: Bobby 'the Brain' Heenan (2010)
Bobby "The Brain" Heenan revolutionized sports entertainment with impressive skills as a manager, wrestler and color commentator. He is recognized as the greatest manager of all time. Over the years, Heenan's numerous protégés included AWA Champion Nick Bockwinkel, the Blackjacks, Big John Studd, King Kong Bundy, "Ravishing" Rick Rude, "Mr. Perfect" Curt Hennig, Arn Anderson & Tully Blanchard, Harley Race, and of course, Andre the Giant--whom Heenan led to the ring at WrestleMania III before 93,173 fans in 1987. As a "broadcast journalist," Heenan formed a classic combination with Gorilla Monsoon, and the two became the Abbott & Costello of sports entertainment. In 2004, Heenan was rightfully inducted in the WWE Hall of Fame. Now, for the first time ever, fans can relive the Brain's magnificent career in Bobby "The Brain" Heenan, a documentary that chronicles the life and times of The Brain.
