Pro wrestling legend Bobby "The Brain" Heenan has passed away.
Bobby "The Brain" Heenan has died at the age of 72, according to a tweet by wrestling announcer Jim Ross.
"The news of Bobby "The Brain" Heenan's passing today gutted me," Ross wrote on Twitter. "I loved our time together. No one ever did it better than the Wease."
The WWE has not confirmed Heenan's death.
Heenan reportedly had a few medical complications from battling cancer in recent years. The iconic manager and broadcaster was diagnosed with cancer in 2002 and has also battled tongue cancer.

He was a true talent. Really drew a lot of "heat," as they say in the industry. But you couldn't help but be entertained by "the Weasel."
