I went top 3:
1) Jim Cornette
2) Gary Hart
3) Paul Heyman
Truth be told, I could interchange those spots all day, but that's what I'll settle with. Cornette is the only one, though, that comes close to Heenan. Hart and Heyman are good, and Paul is incredible on the mic, but when you look at the total body of work, hard to deny Corny and Heenan as the best.

5. Freddie Blassie
4. Jimmy Hart
3. Lou Albano
2. Gary Hart
1. Grand Wizard
I had to go with the WWWF's managers because they had to get over some absolutely awful wrestlers (look up Mighty Joe Thunder for a prime example). I think Grand Wizard was the best both for his work with The Sheik and Superstar Billy Graham (who you could tell the fans wanted to cheer but between Wizard and Graham they managed to keep him heel) Gary Hart has been praised by people who know the business far better than I do, so I trust ranking him 2. (Most of Corny's schtick came from Gary) Jimmy gets his ranking mostly from his fabulous run in Memphis.

After Bobby Heenan, Jimmy Hart was my second favorite manager.
