In your opinion who are the greatest 2 managers of all time?
1. Bobby Heenan
Number 2 is hard for me because there are so many great managers but I have to go with....
2. Mr. Fuji

Number one is the easy one, Bobby Heenan all the way. Number 2 is a hard one, and for me, I might change it a hundred times, but at the moment I would say Paul Ellering, in part because as it was said many times, he wasn't just a manager to The Road Warriors on TV, was basically did the work behind the scenes for them too.

First I would go with Bobby Heenan, secondly I would vote for Jimmy Hart. My reasoning, to my knowledge they're the only two managers (at the height of managers) to ever manage a World Champion, IC Champion as well as Tag Champions. Plus the men they managed were really the "whos who" of wrestling. Names like Hulk Hogan, Andre The Giant, Curt Hennig, Rick Rude, Ric Flair, Bret Hart, Honky Tonk Man....really an incredible list.
Honorable mention would be JJ Dillon, Mr. Fuji, Freddie Blassie, Cpt Lou Albano and Jim Cornette.

Instead of going with the obvious ones like Bobby and etc. I'll throw two new names out there.
Paul Heyman and Vickie Guerrero. Heyman was great with Lesnar, and although Vickie is still current, it's amazing how sometimes she'll get the biggest heat of the night by saying two words.

I loved Heenan but I always thought Albano was a little better.

1. Heenan, unequivocally. Can we seriously get a  ing Mattel figure of him already... 2. Johnny Polo? Haha, no? Seriously, it might actually be Paul E., maybe Cornette. 2 is tough for me. Probably Heyman though if I'm forced to pick right this second. Although, I think I'm counting the entire Paul E. character and maybe just not solely his managerial skills. |

Its a shame that The Grand Wizard died right before the wrestling boom, he was an incredible manager and I think shamefully has gotten lost in the shuffle. Freddie Blassie is another one who I think should be mentioned. Of course there are also the usual names such as Heenan and Hart.

Narrowing down to one is easy, but having only two becomes very difficult.
That said, I'll have to say my top two are Heenan and Cornette though there are plenty of others close behind Cornette.
