Loss Posted February 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Koko B. Ware performs with a Temptations cover band at some Vegas club. Watching Vince McMahon trying to show his soulful side around people of color never, ever, ever gets old. Heenan is great too. This is good fun.

PeteF3 Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Koko's voice sure comes across better in the studio than live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Ridge Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 Vince looks so natural in the audience. Koko is just harassing poor Bobby. I did laugh when Koko told Heenan he needed timing to dance and Bobby pointed to his watch. This whole concert went longer than I expected. Koko sings alright but he doesn't have the strong voice. Oh my, Vince dancing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup23 Posted June 15, 2013 Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 Man Koko has put on the weight. I also hate it when someone asks a wrestler what there name is especially when its a second rate cover band in a vegas lounge. rest of this segment was fun stuff. Vince was getting down.

ajtroma Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 I think Mel Phillips can be seen getting groovy as well. Write your own jokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyonthewall2983 Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 So it was an all-ages show then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garretta Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 This was a good segment on one hand, but it's also a reminder that Heenan the evil mastermind is nearing the end of the road. Would a Heenan who knew he was still in the running to possibly manage a World champion get down and dance with a man who his men may have to cripple on the road to the title? That aside, Koko's attempts to teach Bobby how to do the Bird were funny, and Bobby's actually not bad for a beginner when his time finally comes. Vince looks like he's trying to do the Spastic Pelican, and Koko finally has to save him from himself before he collapses with a heart attack. I actually would have rather heard Koko start by trying to sing along with the Lou Rawls cover the band was doing to establish himself as a legit singer, but if the lead singer of the band couldn't sound anything like Rawls, what chance would Koko have? I hope Bobby finally got to finish a dance with a woman before the episode was over, but knowing him, he probably ended up with a female impersonator instead! Even though this wasn't nearly as funny as some of the other segments done for the new Prime Time format, it's actually a quality comic bit for a wrestling program. This might have been Koko's most high-profile moment since the Piledriver album, and it might also be his last until his brief teaming with Owen Hart as High Energy. That's a shame, because he was really over when he first came to the WWF in the fall of 1986. I guess he was just too small to be a major player in Vince's world of superheavyweights and outlandish personalities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawho5 Posted October 29, 2017 Report Share Posted October 29, 2017 Good for a lot of the reasons mentioned above. But it went on far too long with Koko trying to teach Bobby to dance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
