It was very classy on WWE's part to play video footage of Bobby 'The Brain' Heenan, throughout the show. With montages, footage and tweets from WWE superstars remembering the legend, Bobby Heenan's legacy was celebrated and cherished among fans, old and new.

We've seen a few comments online complaining about the fact that he did not get a ten bell salute, but be that as it may, the tribute that WWE put together for him was very sweet indeed. We do hope that it inspires those in the audience to log in to the WWE Network, and remember 'The Brain'.
It was also cool to see Booker T finally get his comeuppance against Michael Cole by calling Heenan the best announcer to have called his many matches. Cole was dumbfounded by the remark.
