Undoubtedly, he was one of the best among American pro wrestling managers and of course among the loved-by-all commentators in this particular field’s history. Oh yes, we’re talking about Bobby “The Brain” Heenan, who is no more; the 73-year-old Chicago native passed away this Sunday. Heenan had to undergo countless surgeries; ever since being diagnosed with throat cancer way back in 2002.

According to the WWE, the news of Heenan’s death was broken by Jim Ross (James William Ross, the American professional wrestling commentator – talent relations executive), who confirmed that Bobby Heenan died on Sunday.

Members of the wrestling community conveyed their remarks separately; taking it Twitter if someone dubbed Bobby as “Pure Magic” other one said his death “gutted” me.

Bobby “The Brain” would be long remembered and would always be loved by all.

  1. I will cherish The Brain for his work with the late Gorilla Monsoon (Robert Marella) when they worked on the W. W. F. television show “Prime Time Wrestling.” during the 1980s-1990s. Especially when he mocked the mother of the late Big Boss Man (Ray Traylor) or when he made fun of wrestler Tito Santana (Merced Solis) when he told Monsoon that ICE was after Santana whose character was from Mexico even though he is from Texas. I will miss The Brain.
