Bobby Heenan on Tony Schiavone:>I thought Tony Schiavone was the worst because he didn't like the fans, he didn't like the wrestlers, and he wouldn't tell Mike Tenay and I anything that was going on. >His secret to life was "knowledge is power" so he felt if he knew something, he was more powerful. >Nice, big deal you know this guy's going over, who cares? And sometimes they wouldn't tell us what was going on they said we wanted to be like a shoot, "Well how would you react?" So I told them, I said I would say nothing cause you've never seen one. It don't happen, it's an entertainment business. If they never could understand that. They could not understand it. On Schiavone accusing him of being a drunk:>Man has a couple beers after the match, maybe some after the airplane after a flight. The Dodgers got a play and have a drink going home. Everybody did, if you don't then what are you doing? Then you're hanging around Tony Schiavone drinking Ovaltine at nine o'clock looking at a back edition of Hustler and no one knew you had. With your wife in the back edition of Beaver Hunting.

>>15743306 So that explains "But whomst's side is he on?" Tony Schiavone didn't tell him Hulk was turning so Bobby just said the most outlandish thing he could think of like he always did. If he'd actually known, he would have said something else. THANKS TONY.

I like Heenan, but he did not give a shit when he was there and tried to blame that on Tony. Say what you want, but Tony's enthusiasm was still there up until '99 where he checked out and just let Tenay take the lead. Heenan gave up the moment he got there because he didn't see them as big enough. Heenan was basically promoted once Hogan got in. Bobby really acted like Tony and even fucking Bischoff knew what was happening over Hogan-- the person he was friends with? That's a load of shit. Dude did not care when he was there. At least Ventura did.

All of the wrestling guys have seethed about Tony forever because he was the only one to successfully transition to real sports afterwards and was doing well as a baseball broadcaster.

>>15743503 Tony himself also claims he didn't know, for what it's worth. WCW kept it closely guarded largely so no one could talk Hogan out of it, the whole commentary team were just winging it.

>>15745927 A minor league radio announcer is literally the equivalent of being a grad assistant. I don't give a shit about Tony, but your lack of sports knowledge is hilarious

>>15743306 Schiavone was a newscaster like Cole. That doesn’t make someone a good wrestling announcer/commentator. Politicians like Ventura, Jerry Springer, and Conor McGregor make the best commentators because they know everything is a work.
