Sorry for the very goofy thread title. I recently signed up for the wwe network and I started watching the first Raw. The one thing that stuck out like a sore thumb was the cheesy cornball they put on the announce team. Some guy named Rob ... his last name escapes me. It was clear he was out of his element.
The worst part was when Yokozuna started to wrestle. Rob made a very disrespectful comment. He asked what Yokozunas bra size was. And immediately I though to myself, why was this allowed? Why would you try to degrade or shame your coworkers? I would have thought that would be grounds for him being fired on the spot but apparently he continued on with wwf for a while after that.
So I was wondering if anyone knew why he was hired to begin with?

Yeah wasn't that the guy who was Vince's friend? Pretty sure there was a thread about him sometime within the last year.

Started watching Raw from the beginning recently and Rob Bartlett sux. Fortunately he is replaced by Bobby Heenan around Ep 15. There is one episode which takes place during a blizzard where it is Gorilla Monsoon, Bobby Heenan, and Rob Bartlett who for some reason is pretending to be Vince McMahon. Monsoons and Heenans commentary is absolutely hilarious.
And in a different episode Bartlett is also obsessed with Yokozunas butt size as well.
