10 Forgotten WWE Managers You Totally Don't Remember

10. The Commandant

Don Callis had nothing on The Commandant.

OK, that's clearly nonsense. Don's run as The Jackyl had way more potential than the WWF realised in 1997, but probably with a gimmick other than the military-based Truth Commission. That was a way better fit for the group's original manager: That aforementioned Commandant.

He was an actor called Robin Smith that Bret Hart met in South Africa, and the pair hit it off. The 'Hitman' recommended his new pal to Vince McMahon, and the Commission idea debuted in affiliate promotion USWA. Then, McMahon brought them to core WWF programming, but The Commandant only lasted a few months on TV before being replaced.

When people think Truth Commission, they think Jackyl. Actually, do people think about the Commission at all in 2024? This writer does. Recon, Sniper and Kurgan The Interrogator, man. You just had to be there during the glory days. Ahem.
