• There was a segment on Sunday Night Heat last night that showed Teddy Long scolding D-Lo Brown after Raw, telling him that when you fight someone, you need a backup plan. Out of nowhere, Redd Dawg appears and destroys Brown, slamming his head into a car and just laying waste to him. Dawg & Long drive off together while D-Lo is left motionless in the parking garage. Lita & Coach refered to Redd Dawg as "Rodney Mack". It appears that the move of Redd Dawg from Smackdown to Raw is complete, along with a way to take D-Lo off of WWE TV since the WWE is releasing him.

  This week, legendary manager Bobby Heenan joined the No Holds Barred radio show and here are the highlights.
  
  Bobby put over his book and said it was in its third printing. He will be in New york City on February 19th and in New Jersey on February 22nd to sign copies of the book.
  
  He talked a lot about Curt Hennig and what a loss to everyone his death was. He remembered Curt at 13 years old and how he was always around the boys. He said Curt could always make you laugh. He said when Curt did Prime Time Wrestling with him, the suit he wore with Mr Perfect on the back was a Bobby Heenan starter kit. He said in the ring, Curt could always create something good out of something bad. Bobby said he had as much talent as Ric Flair but never got the proper push. He loved working with Flair and Hennig as the financial advisor.
  
  He said he probably would not return to the WWE as he doesn't know what he would do. He said he definitely would not put on chapstick and kiss someone's ass. When asked about the Raw anniversary show, Bobby said he got a call from Pat Patterson a few weeks before the show saying he would get a call to attend, then as the show got close, he never got a call. When finally reached about attending the show, it was too late as Bobby made other plans.
  
  Bobby called Gorilla Monsoon the best friend you could ever have. He told a funny story of he and Gorilla in New York going to a deli. They fought in front of two police officers over which way to go to the deli and the officers thought they really didn't like each other. He enjoyed doing comedy in his broadcasts because being a straight heel for two hours was to long.
  
  He talked about many of the men he managed. He enjoyed working with Hennig, Ray Stevens, Ric Flair, Haku, John Studd and Andre because they were all different. He did say he did not enjoy working with Rick Rude as they did not get along.
