This is the most obese fricking neckbeard cope of all time and also the gayest. THE MOMENT BEFORE THE BIGGEST TURN OF ALL TIME ISNT THE TIME FOR A 70 YEAR ANNOUNCER TO BE TRYING TO GET HIS “CHARACTER” OVER
>TRYING TO GET HIS “CHARACTER” OVER
Bobby Heenan is more over than 95% of wrestlers could ever dream of being, he was one of the top three heels of the golden era.

he was a shitty manager who stole the attention from the wrestlers he managed because he was seething about being a failed wrestler himself

based Bobby the Brain still working marks into a seething shoot from beyond the grave
>color commentator who’s entire gimmick is that he doesn’t trust and hates Hogan, is somehow “getting himself over” by sticking to his character and questioning Hogans motives like he has been since Hogan debuted in WCW
Probably because it exposed Heenan as a shitter who didn't know how to pivot. He should have immediately been like "I TOLD YOU, I FRICKING TOLD YOU" but instead he just sat there like a moron and didn't really sell it.
You don't get it. Heenan doesn't actually believe Hogan was a heel, never did. All the hundreds of times he accused Hogan of turning heel he was just being a c**t. Cowardly heel like Heenan are self-loathing to the extreme, even they know the worst thing you can accuse someone of being is a heel. He wanted people to hate Hogan, so he threw his best insults at him.
When Hogan legit turned heel even the heels were shocked speechless. It was intended.
it was a perfectly in-character thing for Heenan to say and literally no one at the time thought twice about it, it's only zoomer homosexuals that only know wrestling from tiktok and youtube recaps who think he actually tipped anyone off with that
heenan was always saying hogan was a bad guy and was going to turn at some point. He was just doing more of that stuff when hogan came out. Plus I heard he didnt know hogan was a bad guy. but alot of people like to pretend he was ruining the reveal when he was just doing his usual oh that phony hogan guy shtick
unironically no one expected it...you have to remember this was pre Russo and pre the modern era where everything revolved around "swerves" so everyone became desensitized to it
>It seemed like the most obvious thing.
In retrospect maybe, but you gotta remember that Hogan had never once been a heel. He was the babyface of babyfaces, him turning heel was a huge deal.
okay but how I was supposed to know he was on the nWo side at the time? I have no clue how smarks get so pissed off at Heenen for saying that cue
Especially since Heenen always hated Hogan.

maybe the moment before the biggest heel turn in history isn't the time for the LORE of le announcer
it's Bobby fricking Heenan, not Michael Cole
>I don't even watch wrestling: the post
he immediately did this, you fat fricking moron
the white side.
kek i always forget heenan spoiled the biggest heel turn in wrestling history
it was a perfectly in-character thing for Heenan to say and literally no one at the time thought twice about it, it's only zoomer homosexuals that only know wrestling from tiktok and youtube recaps who think he actually tipped anyone off with that
t. Zoomer
I'm 38 you little homosexual. I saw it all happen, live.
the only way heenan could have fricked up worse is saying something like "boy i hope he doesn't turn on randy savage and join the outsiders"
he was probably drunk
>"ARE YOU FROM FRICKING PLANET moron, BOBBY? WHAT DO YOU MEAN 'WHO'S SIDE IS HE ON?' YOU FRICKING homosexual?"
Did Schiavone go too far?
you can tell by the commentary pause in the telecast that whoever was on the headphones was saying pretty much that to the announce team
God Hogan looked so weird when he was cutting back on the juice and trying to get rid of the moustache
He looks liem he has AIDS.
Yep heenan went into business for himself. He should have said something like look at this glory hog coming to save the day
I believe in a shoot interview that Heenan genuinely didn't know Hogan was the third man.
he didn't
kek i could shoot heem this gay
so do it
heenan was always saying hogan was a bad guy and was going to turn at some point. He was just doing more of that stuff when hogan came out. Plus I heard he didnt know hogan was a bad guy. but alot of people like to pretend he was ruining the reveal when he was just doing his usual oh that phony hogan guy shtick
Who
Bobby's commentary aside.
Were people really supposed to be surprised anyway? It seemed like the most obvious thing.
unironically no one expected it...you have to remember this was pre Russo and pre the modern era where everything revolved around "swerves" so everyone became desensitized to it
I really wish I had experienced that era.
According to shoots, Hogan wasn't even 100% on-board with it until the last minute and it would have been Sting if he backed out
>It seemed like the most obvious thing.

Brain ruined this moment trying to get himself over lol
