@@swfcocs1I was a WCW fan and I agree with Heenan a hundred percent. Ppl say what they say about Vince but he was the one guy who understood it was a business and treated it as such. He had the proper infrastructure to run efficiently, he put the right ppl around him to get the most of them. He did it right. Despite all the recent stuff (and it's not good) when it came to running a company and growing it bigger and bigger, Vince was the best. The fact WWE is the biggest wrestling company on the planet and the thing most commonly associated with wrestling is the proof.

This was the tail end of his babyface run, and the fans were so done with him at the top. 1997 was an awesome year, with the Hart Foundation on top with Bret's heel run and the rise of Stone Cold.

From everything that I've been able to glean from what Bobby had said, it seems like part of the issue was that he was from a different time and place than most of the know-it-alls at WCW. Sure, they valued his work doing the announcing on the broadcasts, but only because they knew that Bobby's inimitable style helped with the ratings, which helped fill the bank account. But, as far as his input went, he was not, for the lack of a better way to put it, one of them.

Monsoon: What? Heenan: I believe i heard it. Monsoon: Will you stop! You saw what happened and there was no tag! Heenan: They were cloae enough to tag. Monsoon: What?!

@@geneanthony3421 It was odd that he skipped over the NWO. I will say that I thought that stuff with Nacho Man and Huckster would be more likely to push people to WCW more. But the NWO was obviously the biggest factor. He is right about Eric Bischoffs smugness though. I do think Eric probably understands somethings better now than he did back then, but he reeked of arrogance back then.
