Legendary color commentator and manager Bobby “The Brain” Heenan has passed away at age 72.
The news of Bobby "The Brain" Heenan's passing today gutted me.
I loved our time together.
No one ever did it better than the Wease.

More information will be posted as it becomes available. Heenan had been dealing with a variety of health issues, including a battle with throat cancer in 2002 and subsequent reconstructive jaw surgeries.
On a personal note, Heenan is one of the greatest talkers of all-time and I send my condolences to his family and friends.
