Jimmy Hart, recently talked with SI.com about the passing of WWE Hall of Famer Bobby "The Brain" Heenan, who died at the age of 73 yesterday. Durning his interview Hart recalled what the locker room was like back in the day with Heenan:
“I’ll always remember the dressing room when we were on the road,” recalled Hart. “You had Andre the Giant in one corner playing cards with Arnold Skaaland. You’d have Honky Tonk tuning his guitar, Jake Roberts with Damien, the Bulldogs feeding Matilda, Mr. Fuji playing tricks on people, and, in the middle of it all, there was Bobby Heenan keeping the whole dressing room laughing with his one-liners.”
Hart also commented on the video package which is expected to air in Heenan's memory during tonight's WWE Raw:
“Bobby left something that’s going to be remembered forever,” said Hart. “I can’t wait to see the video package they air on Raw on the life and times of Bobby. People are going to see how good this guy really was.”
