RIP to Lee Marshall


Always enjoyed him and Bobby Heenan bantering over those 1-800-Colllect segments on Nitro. They fed off each other so well

I'm not gonna say he was one of the great commentators but he had one of the dopest voices for it though

RIP.

Had no idea he was Tony the Tiger either. I remember seeing him on some women's wrestling promotion at like 2am on Sunshine after WCW folded.

Rest in peace. I always remembered those segments.

Did anyone ever try throwing a Nitro party?

R.I.P to lee Marshall

I remember him most from hosting WCW Pro when I was a kid. Like somebody said before me, he wasn't the best commentator but he knew how to show emotion and he seemed to genuinely love pro-wrestling.
