Well, this Hart-Bearer matchup for 3rd was completely unnecessary.

Voted for Heenan as the greatest and Hart as 3rd place.
During the whole tournament was leaning towards Bearer as my 3rd place spot after Heyman and Heenan but switched after actually looking up how many guys Hart managed. Never realized how huge the list was and with some really notable names I completely forgot about him managing. |

Now that we're here: heyman isnt as good as this reflect IMO... The test of a great manager is takkng workers who arent very good and getting heat for them. Heyman takes guys whod be over without him a cuts their promos. I dont think ticket sales go up thanks to his work he just accents strong acts. He does it well enough to crack a top 10 probably but theres a slew of guys who were far more integral to their guys success.
Heyman is like...desert. you dont need him to have a meal but its a welcome addition. |

Heyman was also the defacto manager as promoter/owner for an entire company. Everybody in ECW was a project for him.

Vince was manager of the Corporation and should have been included.

TBF, Axel would have never been IC champ if it wasn't for Heyman.

Cornette is so under-appreciated on here. People vote with their hearts and not their minds though.

TBH Heyman promos are my favorite thing about WWE for like the last 5 years. I literally care more about a mouthpiece than the performers.

An interesting follow-up to this would be a Greatest Promo tournament.

I've got a few lined up. Wasn't gonna do a flat out "Greatest Wrestler" tournament since we've already got the Better Wrestler thing and for those debates to happen. Greatest promo would be interesting though.

This was definitely the one to get out of the way first though. Can't think of any other "Greatest..." that would be this cut and dry and anticlimactic.

Heenan....and Bearer. Heenan is the greatest of all time. Bearer was a supporting character to one of my favourite gimmicks....and they were a pretty much perfect fit for each other.

Miz would get way too high in the greatest promo tournament. I say do it.

Indeed. The wrestling forum posters (myself included, FTR) seem to be quite the tough bunch to please when it comes to any kind of threads involving voting. You can please some of the people all the time, and vice-versa, but it's exceedingly difficult to please everyone all the time.
