Its Bobby Heenan...and its because he would do anything for the wrestlers he manages...i.e Mr. Perfect, big john studd, rick rude...etc...even if that meant breaking the rules....

The Weasel Suit match was Heenan vs the Ultimate Warrior.
As others have said, he did whatever he could to help his wrestlers win. He once said on air "Win if you can, lose if you must, but always cheat".
Another classic moment (along with the Weasel Suit match) was when Howard Finkel, probably intentionally, but I'm not sure, announced "accompanied by his manager, Bobby, the Weas...er...I mean, Brain, Heenan".

Back in the day he would wrestle in a Weasel costume...his gimmick was reviving from a sleeper hold and chasing his tail, then starting the fight anew. Legend has it a fan once ripped the tale off the costume.

He was always doing mischevious things for his wrestlers to help them win. But there was a match in particular that sealed his fate. There was a match in which if he lost he would have to wear this costume that was of a weasle. It was covered with fur and even had a long white tail. I dont remember who Heenan had to wrestle.. but Heenan lost and was unconscious as the costume was put on his body.. when he awoke.. Heenan wiped his sweaty face with his fur covered paw and realized what he was wearing.. He then started to see a tail from his backside and started to chase his tail until he fell down exhaused. Funny stuff. Since then he was "the Weasle"

Bobby heenan was consider a weasel because of his tactics he used to win. He was a great manager. He did ANYTHING for his man to win

He was a great heel manager. They called him weasel because was so sneaky when it came to cheating. He'd do anything to make sure his guy won, nothing was too low for him. Man, there will never be another like him.
