Do We Need Managers?

So I'm watching a Paul Bearer shoot, and he says there aren't anymore old school managers around anymore, and he's right. Do you think the wrestling business needs managers again?

If Vickie Guerrero has proven anything it's that non-wrestlers are just as enjoyable and just as much of a draw as the wrestlers are. I think wrestling can only benefit from managers....

If the wrestler isn't a good talker and the manager is, then yes, we need them

yes we do, many many great wrestlers have been thrown in the gutter for not having a good mouthpiece along with them...

Yes, for all of the reasons that people have said. i will say that I never enjoyed the old-school managers who managed 96 different wrestlers in a feud against a few guys (like Heenan).
I also like managers when they are good characters. I would love to see more of guys like Nana, Estrada, Truth Martini, Don West (PUT HIM BACK WITH RED!), Prazak, etc. Just good characters.
