7 Must-See Bobby 'The Brain' Heenan WWE Moments

7. Hall Of Fame Speech

If you want to start off with Bobby Heenan unplugged for 15 minutes, then track down The Brain’s full WWE Hall of Fame speech from his 2004 induction.

In the early 2000s, the Hall of Fame ceremonies were loaded with megastars, and 2004 was no different, with the likes of Jesse Ventura, Sgt. Slaughter, Junkyard Dog and Superstar Billy Graham among the inductees.

But it was Heenan’s induction speech that stole the show, a career retrospective that doubled as a stand-up comedy routine. Bobby’s sharp wit was on full display, stopping at one point when noticing Pete Rose and “confessing” that he bet on professional wrestling. Jokes flew fast and furious during his speech, too many to recount.

It was a great moment to cap off Heenan’s WWF/E career, as cancer would rob him of his ability to deliver fast-paced commentary in the coming years.
