So today’s is a simple one for me. My favourite manager in WWE history has managed many champions (Brock Lesnar, CM Punk, Kurt Angle, Big Show and many more), he’s been in many roles in wrestling both on and off screen, and he is one of the greatest promo guys in the history of the business. And whilst his skills as the head honcho of a wrestling company from a business point of view are… shady… his mind as a creative evil-genius are unparalleled. So today I will be celebrating my favourite manager with a more so a list of my personal favourites that he has gifted the world with his silver tongue in the past. So here we go then with day 8… and Ladies and Gentleman… his name… is PAUL HEYMAN!
10. SHE SAID YES
So, a light hearted one to start off with, one that demonstrated the occasional more comedic moment we get from both Heyman and his client. This one just made me laugh… a lot…
9. An EXTREME invite
So ahead of the first One Night Stand PPV ECW’s Paul Heyman wanted his Raw counterpart, and former WCW guy of course, Eric Bischoff a front row seat…
8. Welcome to the NXTreme
With NXT TakeOver coming to the home of extreme in Philadelphia, a familiar voice who knows a thing or two about Extreme opened the show with a pretty great opening monologue…
7. Thoughts on a PHENOMENAL opponent
After Brock Lesnar had beaten AJ Styles at Survivor Series 2017, Paul Heyman gave his thoughts… and what some of you wont know, is that as shown on the 365 WWE Network documentary on Styles, AJ was actually stood (at the request of Heyman) just off camera at the side as Heyman cut this promo… one heck of an endorsement here…
6. Why Paul Why?
So in completely… not-so-surprising way Paul Heyman had turned on CM Punk, and of course he would tell us all why in great detail… and boy he let loose…
5. Hide your wives…
Could anyone else set the tone for ECW One Night Stand in 2005 other than the God of Extreme himself? Some promo this from Heyman, funny too…
4. The Streak… is Over…
The night after probably the most shocking result in WWE history occurred at WrestleMania 30, Heyman would declare it was now the time of The Conqueror.
3. What Happened?
After Goldberg’s incredible win Over Brock Lesnar in less than 90 seconds at Survivor Series, a dishevelled Heyman finally addressed the state of mind of The Beast, and what was next…
2. Heyman finally SHOOTS on the boss
The Invasion storyline is one with many faults, but at long last on TV Paul Heyman finally had a chance to let rip on Vince McMahon in a big way…
1. Let me tell you about a Paul Heyman guy…
Just sit back and watch one of the finest promos I have ever seen, from one of the best to ever talk into a microphone in a wrestling ring do what he does best…
