Now we all know about the Heenans, Cornettes, Percy Pringles, and Jimmy Harts, but what are some of the lesser talked about managers that you just really liked?
For me it has to be Richard Lee, manager of the Moondogs in Memphis. Two old fat guys in scraggly beards shouldn't work at all, but with Richard Lee at the mic they got over as killing machines. Their feud with Jerry Lawler and Jeff Jarrett in the early 90's was great.

Daivari.
If you needed him to wrestle, he could do it with some skill, but he was just small enough to play the manipulative little remora with a huge mouth. And he was not, by any means, a bad talker.

Harvey Whippleman. A great example of a great, annoying manager.
And Toomi can tell you a little something about some manager named Beaver Las Vagas.

Arrrmandoooooooo Alejandrooooooooooooo Estradaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Seriously... WWE really dropped the ball on this dude. He got over as manager, so WWE had him STOP using his catch phrase. because it got face pops. Then they seperated him from Youmanga for no reason, made him GM of ECW where he was entertaining... then made him wrestle, and fired him not long after.

C'mon, you knew I was going to say it.
In all seriousness, I'll say Gary Hart and Sir Oliver Humperdink. Hart gets overlooked in general by a lot of fans, and Hump is usually only associated with Bigelow in the WWF, which was far from his best work.

Krystal Lashley was fantastic for the four weeks she was a heel manager for Bobby.

The Genius. A heat magnet that could also get in the ring and wrestle. He just looked like a smart-guy you'd want to slap with that big, toothy grin.

Never cared one bit for Harvey Whipleman. From me he got the "wrong heat" that induced a channel changing until whatever match he was envolved in was over.
Woman was underappreciated. She was the bitchy/Prissy version of Miss Elizibeth

Woman, Gary Hart and Skandor for me.
Skandor in particular was a heat magnet.

Damn, I was gonna say Woman; now I look like a copycat. I did like the Woman/Elizabeth/Debra trio of managers/valets for the Four Horsemen in the '90s; one of the only times I enjoyed Debra McMichael.
