View Full Version : The Fink - 30 Years with WWE
From JR's Twitter:
Happy 30th anniversary w/ WWE to The Fink! No one loves WWE more than Howard.
--
Let's talk about the greatness that is The Fink, Howard Finkel (again).
As far as I'm concerned, still the best in the business and NOBODY comes close to his announcing.

I hate the spanish ring announcer who announces Rey Mysterio's name in the most spanish way he possibly can.

Hate the new announcers, Fink walks all over them with ease, given how good he was at the HOF segment he should've really had a bigger role at WM.

...as well he should. What do you want, for him to go like "Rey MIST-EE-REE-OU"?

I think it's pretty obvious where the winner lies.
lol at how truly bad that Lilian call is.

Fink should be the full time PPV announcer.
I'm not saying he should annouce each show, just make him do the announcing for every PPV to make it seem special.

Oh and Fink being the best ring announcer in wrestling history is the closest to indispuitable an opinion can be.

Waitaminute. I remember watching Mania X dozens of times and thinking something is off. Now I've figured it out- Howard Finkel wasn't the main ring announcer. So who's announcing instead of Fink? And why?
Yeah was watching it today. It was Bill Dunn. No idea who he was or why he was doing it.

Cy Sperling, President and member of the Hair Club for Men, was busy backstage working on giving the Fink hair for the event. He was one of the celebrities and giving the Fink hair was actually an angle, thus the unveiling of the hair.
