10 Best Ever WWE WrestleMania Entrances

6. Bobby Heenan (WrestleMania IX)

Shawn Michaels WrestleMania XIV
WWE

Bobby Heenan may once have controlled a zoo's worth of manimals in his legendary stable in the mid-'80s, but he had no authority over a wild beast in his last ever arrival as a full-timer on the 'Grandest Stage'.

Emerging for 'The World's Largest Toga Party' at WrestleMania 9 backwards on a camel, Heenan was the perfect comical contrast to commentary partner Randy Savage's grand entrance flanked by vestal virgins atop a sedan-like chaise longue.

Clad in his own absurd outfit for the grandiose occasion, Heenan screamed for the animal to stop until it dumped him face first at the sandal-clad feet of WWE debutant Jim Ross. Adding insult to presumed injury as the former manager flapped, Randy Savage gleefully pulled his toga up to reveal his brilliant blue tighty-whities to the pay-per-view audience. Few did thick-headed indignity as well as the incomparable 'Brain'.
