Legends of Wrestling – The Lost art of The Manager
(Chosen by Mark Philipp)
The Legends of Wrestling Roundtable is a great concept. Originally released as part of the WWE On Demand service, the Legends Roundtable is exactly what it sounds like: legends of the business sitting around a table talking about various topics.
I haven’t watched all the episodes, but all of them I have seen are profoundly interesting and really a lot of fun. My favorite (so far) is “The Lost Art of the Manager.” Frankly, I miss good managers in WWE’s product, and this episode really explains way. Its equal parts an analysis of the role of the manager from true students of the game and an anthology of the road stories that everyone loves.
The clips of Bobby Heenan and the stories from JJ Dillon about the Four Horseman are some of the best bits the Network has to offer.
