 I like Tony. One of my favorite 80's announcers. Maybe even #1, to me.

I appreciate how he acknowledged learning from Gorilla. When he first came on "Prime Time", Tony was sort of being brought along as Gorilla's protege. They kayfabed it up, even leading to Heenan walking out on "Wrestling Challenge" in the fall of 1989. Gorilla and Tony co-hosted that show for about... a month, maybe? I remember their on-air interactions seemed pleasant.
