During the introductions of WrestleMania X-Seven's gimmick battle royal as Iron Shiek took a long time to walk to the ring:
"By the time the Shiek gets to the ring, it'll be time for WrestleMania 38."

Heenan: How long have you been married? Man in crowd: 20 years. Heenan: Do you realize if you had killed her on your wedding night you would be a free man by now?

This. The Brain singlehandedly makes this lousy PPV worthy of repeat viewings.

On Jack Tunney: "He's the greatest leader since Noreaga". I don't know why, but that never fails to make me laugh.

Going through Slamboree 1995 now, and one thing I love. During the Legends Match, he calls the match with Gordon Solie, and while he's still making "Brain Jokes", he never once takes a jab at Solie the way he did at Schiavone and other later commentators. Love that respect.

I just remembered another favorite.
It was a WCW match featuring Lex Luger, I believe, which was getting a fairly loud "Steroids!" chant from the crowd.
Heenan: "I've never seen a crowd so pumped!"

From the time Brain & Gorilla went to Gino's fave hot dog joint
Gorilla: Are you Hungry? Brain: Yes, lets go.
Brain: Sign my buns? Awful hard to do without a mirror.
Brain: The last pair of buns I've signed was a stripper named Kitty Litter-- Gorilla: Will you stop! That's not necessary!
Brain: I'll have a water Gorilla: Water? Brain: You're right, we don't know about the pipes. I'll have a Diet Coke.

Not sure about when it was, but there was a match where Hogan pointed to a fan and Heenan said "He's not pointing to anybody, he's just showing how high he can count!".

Love that respect. Bobby's WCW run wasn't completely without a shot at Solie, though. I can't remember which show it was but Heenan and Schiavone had an exchange that went like this: Bobby: You know, I never really liked Gordon. Tony: Why not? Bobby: You don't really need a reason to dislike Gordon. Tony: Well I think you do! Speaking of Slamboree, Bobby's reaction to not getting inducted into the Hall of Fame always cracked me up. Eric Bischoff: Well, think about this. If you were being inducted, who would do commentary with me? Bobby: I can do it all! You could induct me from here!

Gorilla: In all my years, I've never seen anyone pinned with a side headlock. Brain: I've pinned a few people with it. Gorilla: WHERE IN YOURS DREAMS?! Brain: I can beat a man a million different ways....I had a guy give up one time during instructions.
Heenan comments on how beauitful Sherri is. Gorilla: I think you should see your oculist. Heenan: Why? There's nothing wrong with my feet. Gorilla: I'm talking about your eyes! (Gorilla talks a few seconds more) Heenan: I'm telling Michaels what you said about his feet.
Gorilla: Always that eerie smell of formaldehyde when he (The Taker) is around Heenan: I thought that was your cologne!!! You buy that cheap stuff all the time just so you can get a free comb

This. The Brain singlehandedly makes this lousy PPV worthy of repeat viewings. "Booger's my pick." Rumble 92 has already been mentioned, that's the ultimate example for Heenan. A lesser known one is a match between Dean Malenko and Chip Minton (AKA Chip Beef according to Heenan) in WCW. Good lord Heenan was on fire.

Watching WCW 96/97 he was so flat out mean to Dusty at times it was so brutal
watching Spring Stampede 97 during Ultimo Dragon/Rey Dusty starts stammering and stuttering and this goes on for like a minute so Heenan says "We only have the building til midnight" i spat coke all over the floor i wasnt expecting that
At least with Gorilla it seemed there was a friendship there and they were having fun. With Dusty and Tony he just takes them a part and its hilarious

I went into the hellish nightmare that is logging onto the Network Canada to get this quote, so you f***ers better all "like" it.
Monsoon: Brain, I didn't think you were coming back. I thought you were history. Brain: I'll explain the situation to you momentarily. Monsoon: I know the situation. Brain: I don't wanna discuss it right now. Monsoon: You lost your meal ticket.....Tricky Ric ran outta tricks! Tatanka a real Native American and his Lumbee Indian Tribe! What a future for this youngster! Brain: Monsoon, I just got back from talking with Ric Flair, I'm gonna make a statement, I'm gonna make it now, I'm gonna make it clear and to the point. You saw it, I saw it, millions and millions of people saw it. Savage had a fistful of trunks and he used it to pin Ric Flair, now a lesser person they gripe, they would scream, they would make excuses, we are gonna regroup and we are gonna get the title back. It's just a matter of time, if we're gonna be upset, if we're gonna get emotional, well we're gonna defeat ourselves. We're gonna look at this as a positive message and we're gonna go forward and we're gonna take that title and we're gonna take Mr. Savage out, eventually. It's just a matter of time and of conversation. Monsoon: Yeah, and how many of you will it take to do that? Heenan: Doesn't matter Monsoon, we'll get the job done. Monsoon: Mr. Perfect spent as much time in the ring as Ric Flair did. Brain: You discuss that with them. I'm a broadcast journalist. Monsoon: You're a liar! Heenan: I'm a financial consultant. Monsoon: You're a liar! Heenan: I'm gonna sit here and do my job like the gentleman that I am. Monsoon: You're a liar! Heenan: AND IF YOU CAN GET OUT OF HERE! Monsoon: You're a liar! Heenan: YOU CAN TAKE YOUR MICROPHONE AND YOUR HEADSET AND YOU KNOW WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH IT!!! YOU'RE NOT GONNA GET ME UPSET!!! Monsoon: You're already upset! Heenan: YOU UNDERSTAND THAT? YOU'RE NOT GONNA GET ME UPSET! Monsoon: Don't jump, it's a long way down! Hennan: PUT 'EM UP! Monsoon: Huh Heenan: PUT 'EM UP! Monsoon: Boy oh boy, Brain has really lost it folks.
Gorilla: (referring to a sign in the crowd) Natural Disasters Rule. How about that? Bobby: If she'd been at home doing the dishes she wouldn't have time to make stupid cards like that. Bimbo.

I think Heenan's call of the final moments of Hogan vs. Goldberg is one of the most underrated commentator moments ever.
"LOOK AT GOLDBERG! HE'S READY! *Spear* OK, there's part one, now FINISH HIM OFF! This is it! This is it! Your career is on the line here! DO IT! DO IT! This place will erupt when he picks him up! *Jackhammer and 3 count*
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! We've got a new heavyweight champion of the world! The first undefeated man in the history of this sport to ever win the World's championship and has a record of 106, 107, 108 WHO CARES, there's a zero on the other side! We've got a new champion!"
Bobby just went nuclear when Goldberg won the title, and it sold how big of a moment it truly was.
