In a working sense I would pick Jimmy Hart. He had the mega phone and was just a squirrely guy who you just wanted to see get his ass kicked. Jimmy did his job perfectly. In a "ugh I'm tired of this guy" and get him off tv. Paul Bearer after he managed Kane. The whole thing got old quick.

That freaking whistle!

Anyone managing Miz because they always helped him win every match he's ever won pretty much.

Probably Vickie Guerrero. She's the only one that really made me cringe.
By the time I went back and watched stuff from pre-2000's I had a pretty good feel on the busines and could respect a good heel manager.

I found Vickie to be annoying in general, regardless if it was as a manager, GM or anything else. Just wanted her to go away.

In a kayfabe sense I agree with Jimmy Hart, he played the annoying manager role great.
In a "go away" stance Id say Shinja, he just didnt serve a purpose IMO and just wanted him gone.

Paul Heyman has kinda got a little old for me.
Paul Bearer kinda got played out; when he just would shift between Taker and Kane with series of numerous double crosses.
Like okay; the stuff building to Kane coming was excellent. And Kane aligning with him; sure that works. And then the 1998 double cross; questionable but maybe. But then it was like okay; he's back with Kane again in 2000; Oh wait it's 2004 and he's cool with Taker again. Oh but it's 2010; and now he likes Kane again? Like even in the kayfabe world i'd be sick of Bearer's s***.

I hated Melina, that scream she did always went right through me. I also hated when Mr Perfect had The Coach with him as he had a whistle and that was annoying as hell, plus I always wondered why the hell did Mr Perfect need a coach!

The Coach!
Not Jonathan Coachman, but John Tolos.
He would be out there with that whistle during Mr. Perfect's matches in the summer of 1991. How did Mr. Perfect go from having the greatest manager in the world in Bobby "the Brain" Heenan to having.... The Coach as his manager?!?!
Speaking of annoying managers because of whistles, that also brings me to Fonzie. Bill Alfonso made some matches involving Taz, RVD or Sabu very unbearable because of his constant whistling during the matches.

Working style I always found Jim Cornette to play the annoying part perfectly. That voice and tennis racket drove me crazy.

Paul Jones. Before there was X-Pac heat, there was Paul Jones heat. He couldn't cut a promo, wore tacky out of style tuxedos & just looked like an idiot.

Jimmy Hart and his megaphone is an easy and popular choice which I agree with but if we're not limiting ourselves to WWF/E then the most annoying manager has to be Bill Alfonso and his damn whistle. OMG That man knew how to make people hate him.

Abraham Washington. It’s one thing to be annoying on the mic but to give you a live mic just to spew off while you’re trying to watch a match is just obnoxious. They’ve tried the concept with a few people, Ive never liked it.
