    No argument on Stacey, but Sunny in her prime was tops in my book.

    I like Maria because she also looks like she's trying. The same cannot be said for some of the women.

    For all you Sunny fans:



    Part I of a 12-part shoot interview conducted recently by RF Video. Some fascinating stuff in there.

    God bless Gorilla Monsoon and Bobby Heenan.

    Heenan: They need each other.
    (Michaels superkicks Jannetty)
    Heenan: I knew he was going to do that!
    Monsoon: What a dispicable act that was!

    Later...
    Heenan: Jannetty tried to dive through the window to escape!
    Monsoon: Are you blind?!
    Heenan: What an act of cowardism!

    By the way, gotta appreciate the Parker Lewis commercial at the beginning of the clip.

    Heenan always knew something was going to happen. Remember his words when Hogan ran down the aisle the night he formed NWO with Nash and Hall? He questioned Hogan's motives as he was doing the run-in. Was he with WCW or not?

    As for the Michaels-Jannetty thing, I never liked Jannetty and despite his success, I'm not the biggest Michaels fan, either.

    Biggest turn in wrestling history and the Brain all but gave it away. Granted, his character should have been doubting Hogan, it's what he had done for more than a decade, but that was really bad. WWE edited that comment out of the footage on the Monday Night Wars DVD.

    Doesn't change my vote for best pro wrestling manager -- ever! Heenan might have been a weasel, but he'll always be the Brain to me!

    But whose side is he on?? Whose side is he on??

    Classic.

    To change the subject to a Super Bowl-esque theme for a second, here's WWF, yes WWF, getting into the Super Bowl swing of things with their very own commercial.

    Also, pay very close attention to the chick when Sable is talking. I could swear that girl looks a little like Stephanie Levesque.

    ^A little, but it's not her.

    I'd put Skandar Akbar, JJ Dillon and Paul Ellering in front of Heenan.

    Cornette, during the heyday of the Midnight Express, was the most hated man alive. Heenan was a classic, but I don't think he received nearly the emotional reaction Corney did.
