No way is Heenan overrated. Yes, his commentary was awesome. But the guy was a major heat magnet during his managerial run in AWA and WWF. He even managed to get Haku and The Barbarian over, dammit! And his ringside performances were incredible... the way he'd recoil at each bump his charge would take, gloat when they were in control and interact with the fans.... nobody else comes near.
And Ben, I did say Heyman, or rather Paul E. Dangerously, as an honourable mention. He was brilliant as the sleazy obnoxious businessman with the ENORMOUS cellphone.
