ビンス・マクマホン・シニア
Because of his close relationship with Vince McMahon, Sr. and his family, Blassie remained on the WWF payroll until the day he died. He would sporadically return to make brief appearances following his retirement in 1986, mostly in produced video packages hyping the "new generation" of wrestling. He was given a commentary tryout in 1986 and 1987 for "WWF Wrestling Challenge", calling a few matches with Gorilla Monsoon. He briefly turned face in 1989, making an appearance on "Prime Time Wrestling" angry with Bobby Heenan over money Heenan hadn't paid him back. Then he returned again in 1990 briefly to do color commentary for "Prime Time" in April with Vince McMahon, as an emergency fill-in after Tony Schiavone quit, playing a heel once again.
