As much as he accomplished as a manager, I think Heenan made his greatest impact as a color commentator. He hasn’t, and probably never will be surpassed in. That regard.
Eother way, we're talking about two of the sharpest minds in the history of the business. And I’m sure Heyman has all the respect in the world for Heenan.

Heyman is so good. He's probably the GOAT. And he knows it.

Yeah, this is definitely tongue in cheek, it's not like times we've actually seen Heyman get pissy. |

Heenan had maybe 30 guys besides Andre. I absolutely think Heenan/Bockwinkel first, then Heenan/Andre I'd thrown Heenan/Flair into the mix especially how Flair came into the WWF as the self-proclaimed real world's champion. |

Anyone who says Heenan is a better manager is lying and basing it off nostalgia. Close it down, no more need to discuss anything. |

Heyman is an elite talker, but it's been decades since Paul did anything but talk and take a bump here and there. Guys like Heenan, Jimmy Hart, and Cornette in their primes were practically participants in the matches they got so involved. I miss old school manager matches. I was recently watching Hogan vs. Savage with Sherri in his corner. It may as well have been a handicap match with how much Sherri got involved (Sherri is on the GOAT manager list too). It was so much fun and so different than what you see in wrestling today. |

I feel like Heenan would say something like that also if the roles were reversed.

It was so much fun and so different than what you see in wrestling today. Paul Heyman is great with elite, elite talents; Bobby Heenan made almost everyone work. I have Heyman as top 5, but don't tell me nostalgia, I have thought that Bobby Heenan might be the best all around pro wrestling character for 25 years. |

Heenan & Heyman both have great stuff but Bobby was apart the biggest main event in history.

They held a fundraiser for Bockwinkel after his triple bypass surgery and some of the guys showed up for support. Kevin Sullivan and his boys were posing for a picture with a fan and Heenan was in the background. Right as they go to take it he flips off Sullivan behind his back. |
