There were a lot of great talents that were managed by Bobby Heenan, but the most high profile name was clearly Andre The Giant. Since Andre was a French born giant, he wasn't a master of the English language. He did the best he could and would provide funny moments along the way although that wasn't what needed when he headlined WrestleMania 3. The big storyline going into WrestleMania 3 was that Heenan had convinced Andre that the best thing he can do is turn on his friend Hulk Hogan to challenge for the World Title. If Andrew just beat up Hogan it wouldn't have meant his much. His pairing with Heenan is what made it work because everybody knew how much Heenan hated Hogan, so for somebody to align with Heenan to go against the champion was a huge deal. Even though Andre didn't win the WWE Title from Hogan legally, he became a force as one of the top heels in the company and with Heenan at his side they were very successful. Their partnership lasted for over three years when Andre had enough of him and went after him at WrestleMania 6, which was a memorable moment.
