@@Hajun554 It didn't need to be technical or a long match, but it had to be a match. Bill Goldberg isn't able to have a decent match even if you handed him a full packet of unused matches. The guy while looking like a visual bad ass was the embodiment of a guy who to be honest should never have gotten the push he initially got. Yes he has the size, yes he has the look, but as a performer he put more people on the shelves than any other wrestler in the past 30 years. And I'm not even talking about Bret. Go through his history during that time. Scott Steiner with a broken Orbital bone during a simple breakup, Renee Dupree being put on the shelf less than 10 seconds into his match with Goldberg, Christ how many times has Goldberg himself has given himself a concussion before he even left his own locker room. In short, F Bill Goldberg, he was a plague in the business that should never have been brought into it. All the potential in the world only to give the middle finger to actually learning how to wrestle.

I wouldn't doubt that Vince is jealous of Heyman. They say that the fastest way to ensure something _wouldn't_ happen in WWE was to get Heyman to present it to Vince as his idea. ECW never had anything like the resources to be any genuine threat to WWF or WCW (actually, it had a sort of working talent exchange relationship with WWF) but the Monday Night War is still remembered as a 3-way conflict just because of Heyman's booking talent and you can see why that would rankle with Vince.

Thank you Paul Heyman. It's really interesting that someone from ECW had to induct one from WCW to WWE hall of fame, making Goldberg's induction unique and special. I'd sure miss these days, 10 years from now we're gonna look back in this and say we're so fortunate to see all this in this lifetime.

I was at this Survivor Series and let me tell you, there was a hush that fell across the audience. There was pure pop and elation over what they were seeing, but once it was over...I think that collectively none of us knew how to react. It was the right call to put it on last.

As someone who HATED the Lesnar/Goldberg match at Survivor Series, and someone who DESPISED the fact that 50-year old Goldberg beat Kevin Owens for the Universal Title... By god, I think Paul Heyman just retroactively sold be on the whole of Goldberg's last run. This guy could seriously sell snow to the Eskimo's.

@rockmusicfan9278

Honestly at the time I was right there with you. The only issue for me was at mania it was for the title. Yet at the same time if they had kept the belt on Owens I feel like there would have been nowhere for him to go after mania. The same way there wasn't for him with the US title after mania.

Heyman mentions 911 back in ECW's hey-days (pun intended). For those of you who don't know what it was like, here's the feeling. I remember having to wait till 3 AM in front of TV to watch ECW. I literally had to count every minute down. There was no distraction at that time of night other than to play games on my SEGA Genesis. I would surf through late night shows, music videos and MTV's Beavis & Butthead to keep me entertained. There was no playing around with a smartphone, no social media because they hadn't come out with that technology yet. Only around 98-99 I had access to Virtual Places Chat (Yea, before Myspace and all of that...) ECW would usually jump off with Taz doing a semi-kayfabe, semi-shoot promo cussing the hell out of Vince McMahon and WWE (then known as WWF). Either that or there would be an on-going match with a crazy end-twist that would keep you tuned in. Insane music, cheap graphics, any feeling of sleep would instantly go away. It was extreme time. A suited Joey Styles would handle color commentary by himself. No budget for fancy spotlights and fireworks wasted on useless talent; no overly "hot" valets or female wrestlers to distract from the wrestling itself. There were a few above-average looking chicks as valets. The type of girls you'd meet at a bar. Made it look real. The crazy "smarks" of the ECW arena were always up on their wrestling; the hype crowd handing out weapons to the wrestlers during matches. Always a thrill seeing 911 chokeslam some dude through 4 tables or the Gangstas come out to "Natural Born Killaz" with New Jack rocking his 2Pac shirt and bandana only to leave both opponents and themselves bloodied... The Eliminators were arguably the greatest tag-team ever but they get no credit, maybe because John Kronus died (of an overdose?) and Perry... (I don't know, he's off to Saturn maybe?) Not to mention Sabu. How he would singlehandedly change the mechanics to these wrestling matches with innovative use of tables and chairs and high-flying daredevil maneuvers that made him a draw. When Rob Van Dam came later in the game, it made Shawn Michaels look like he could learn a move or two. Speaking of which, I'd wake up next morning to WWE's lame Face VS Heel formula featuring characters like Duke the Dumpster Drowse, Doink The Clown and the Godwinnz (to name a few... Thank God they had Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Undertaker and Razor Ramon back then). Enough said. This is my longest post ever but at least some of you now have an idea what it was like. Sorry I didn't mean to sound like those bitter old dudes talking about the "good ole days" but to be honest, the 90's were the best times all-around when you look at music, sports and even social life.

@@PuertoDaDon I was in my late teens. The storylines didn't always justify the display of that much violence but the rebellious hardcore attitude of the times confirmed by the art movements of the times (Grunge music, heavy metal, gangsta rap, extreme sports) made fans give the thumbs up to more and more violence. The mid 90's were almost a contrast to say the 70's peace movements of the hippies. We weren't as sensitive to everything as we are today.... Yes. The crowds were always as hot as that PPV and the Philly arena was crazy. Some knew about NJPW through Pro Wrestling Illustrated magazines, we were smart marks. Fans today have been spoiled and over saturated with so much wrestling accessibility (Internet and on broadcast). Back then we had to wait to see it which made the product seem more gratifying... We knew wresting could be presented in various ways since we were exposed to Lucha Libre with the luchadors on Spanish TV and those with cable TV would catch some independent wrestling events here and there. Fans subconsciously were aware that ECW offered a well balanced mixture of Japan style, Lucha and American wrestling so looking back the product was and still is good even when in comparison to AEW or TNA etc because it wasn't so much about the image quality, decor and fireworks. It was the fact that it was so shitty in production, that we got to see the more realistic personalities of the wrestlers that we only knew as cartoon characters in WWE, that the wrestlers were free to express their talent, and that we didn't feel like our intelligence was being insulted, that the storylines were so much more reflective of our reality, and that it was everything the system (WWE) wasn't.

The beauty of the Goldberg/Brock feud and their matches is that it was booked to the same philosophy that Heyman booked ECW, play to the strengths of your talents and hide their drawbacks. Goldberg's box office was in this hard hitting, no nonsense squashes and that's precisely what their matches were, nothing but big money moves and spots, no downtime. You put Lesnar and Goldberg in a lengthy competitive match you get, well, Mania 20.

He put over everyone in this video because he believe's they all worked hard to be where they're at, and even built it up based on the morals of hard work vs shock value. I don't see anyone else really doing that with a purity like Paul Heyman does and it still to this day makes even me have goosebumps the way Heyman talks.

It would be a different story if Goldberg had been wrestling up until 2 years prior and he came back and dominated Brock. He chose to be a family man and do whatever he has been doing for the past 15 years, and that's fine. No problem with that. But there are so many other performers that could have challenged Brock and beat him, even in a 90 second match.

the thing about believability is something that lays in the hand of the management: i would like to see more midcarders get a chance against the huge stars (lesnar, strowman, undertaker, etc.) and give them a good fight. don't let them win but let them kick out of something you might not expect and make it last longer than a squash. in other words: make your up-and-coming guys look good and boost the credibillity of your whole roster. cena's open challenge was a good first step but we need more of that. every single man in the roster (except the joke characters) should have a certain level of credibility. nowadays only guys in the title scene have that and the rest of the roster are miles behind. fans are led to believe their mom could beat heath slater in a match. and at the same time, there is noone in wwe who can beat lesnar or reigns. there has to be more in between the 2 extremes.

Issue with that idea is that finishers aren't finishers anymore. Ruins the whole premise of a star putting away a mid carder convincingly

Goldberg was always matchless, Brock stood nowhere in front of Goldberg when Gold was at his peak,

You seem to forget that Goldberg was booked as a monster, whereas Brock actually is a monster. So while Brock might not have been booked like Goldberg, he is a much more credible wrestler and fighter than Goldberg. To be fair, Goldberg was booked to be unbeatable in 2 minute stomp fests. That was his gimmick. Whereas Samoa Joe, for example, also remained undefeated for a long period of time and was actually able to pull off amazing matches regardless of who he faced. Bottom line, imo, Goldberg should have lost a long time before he actually lost, and Joe shouldn't have lost to Angle, he should have lost to Styles or Daniels, or even to an upset victory against Jay Lethal.

Ayaz chaudhry You’re a mark. Steven Regal kicked Goldbergs ass just watch the match. “Goldberg was always matchless “ because he was booked that way. Brock was legit. Hell Jericho Kicked Goldbergs ass.

Vincent Andrews yes!

Paul's an awesome guy in some of the documentaries and shorts with youtubers I've seen, tremendous, and kind hearted.

The way Heyman answers feels like he is making a promo. It's so amazing

Hate him or like him, Heyman has a great wrestling mind. He sees things like no one else. Not only creatively, but also as a business.

would pay money to hear heyman and cornette in the booking and writers room because at first i heard cornettes opinion on this match and i thought god damn hes so rite.. then i watch this and think well god damn pauls so rite... both have such amazing wrestlinng intellgiance its crazy

They’re really two sides of the same coin And I don’t think you can find two people with more collective knowledge on the wrestling industry Both came up as photographers One conserves the past One innovates the future

Paul can work a crowd like no one else. The man just has an insane talent for it. And his skills as a public speaker are insane. He knows how to turn a crowd that hates him into a crowd that can’t take their eyes off of him. He’s honestly a legend in his own right.

He is just an amazing talker and he believes everything he says which just makes you want to sit and pay attention to every word that comes out of his mouth and on top of that you just see the passion in his face and body language when he talks about wrestling. He genuinely loves it

Being their live to witness that. I can tell you after the first spear nodody was sitting down. Completely shocked for sure. That was also a WCW moment and it was great see.

I could listen to Paul talk stories forever!!

Goddamn! Heyman made me enjoy the match talking about it more than watching it live 😆👍 Wish he could narrate my day or something

Treasure of the wrestling industry. Say what you want about Heyman, but he has wrestling in his blood.

Lots respect for him for giving Goldberg that win for his family’s sake

He was boring overall. His hype was solid, but when it came to his matches he didn’t have any pizzaz. He was just big and intimidating looking with no wrestling skill.

A masterclass. i'm repeating myself, I know, but this Inside the Ropes with was and still is a true Storytelling Masterclass. Even more... is a Pro Wrestling Sport Entertainment masterclass with the very best in making that business become a business and telling us how that business is built. I look at Paul Heyman not only as a 50yo who's been a fan for over 40 years now but also as someone who has been watching and in adult age analyzed the business from a professional perspective, from the way Graphic Design and the whole Communication itself has been evolved in the last 40 years, up to the way wrestling is the tool to complete the magic. A storytelling magic. Paul Heyman is The Magician himself, and this masterclass, a Business Masterclass in its whole, could and should be held in the very best Universities in the world. Thanks Professor Heyman!

Goldberg is 2-1 against Lesnar, I'm surprised they're leaving it like that, because Goldberg still owns Lesnar.

Pat Andriano Not to mention easily eliminating Brock in the 2017 Royal Rumble

Almost exactly what he said about Goldberg at the hof

So looking back Heyman mentions wanting Lesnar to work with Rollins/Balor but didnt work out. Now Lesnar has fought Balor and fighting Rollins at mania.

It was a well booked run, and their matches were exactly what they should've been: brutal, explosive, with two killers who can tear down buildings.

Mann...The moment he does Goldberg impersonation"But your Last" Epiccc🔥🔥🔥

Paul Heyman, arguably, the greatest mind in professional wrestling. Salute! 💯

But had to be for the universal title? I wanted to see the rematch at wrestlemania but not for the universal title, it should had been Owens vs Jericho for the universal title

@daddydoodle

Yep! Owens did the heavy lifting all year. JeriKO breakup was a hot story with the title already in there, their match at WM would have been a showstealer. But nope! The way they took it off KO was so obvious they only did it because it was time to insert it into Lesnar - Goldberg story.

Man Paul Hayman is such a great talker. I almost bought it. We have seen what Mox can be without WWE restraints on him, so that reference really didn't age well. They could have done the same thing with Joe to kick off a feud. They kinda did, but it didn't happen in a match so it didn't count for much in the end.

seriously, this makes me excited for the match (despite not being hyped for it back then).

Paul Heyman is Awesome and you know he just gets wrestling better then most

Look at Heyman working all of us marks... and we gleefully fall for it every time.

Is there a full interview? No luck finding it.

Best mic work guy ever

watching goldberg destroy brokc was the best damn thing ive seen in a long long time

Fast forward a year later he messed it all up at super showdown fighting an aging Undertaker

Because he didn't listen to Heyman

That's the thing...when Paul heyman takes the Mike, the world watches...He manages to draw the attention of everyone...a masterful showman

the way he worked the crowd onto his side after they mentioned joe is awesome.

Why doesn’t Paul Hayman do the storylines for the WWE he has it going

He's honestly such a great promoter

Why haven't I seen this clip before, I love the way he describes. If you go back and watch Heyman's initial promos when he initially hinted at Goldberg's return, it was just awesome. In a way, he basically set Goldberg up as the the mythical force that everyone always had in the back of their mind. In a way, I'd say that the legendary "aging gunslinger" was the 'final boss'. A guy Brock could not intimidate, look down on, and would not fold. Like the true challenge Brock would have to test himself with, on his own terms. Thae fact that Brock and Goldberg are good friends, helped them work immensely well. I also wonder if Deon "Primetime" Sanders, watched the match, since he and Goldberg have been good friends since they played together in the NFL.

Please do this with heyman in Dublin. Or even somewhere in the UK. Please!!!!!

Goldberg was an mma fighter before becoming a wrestler. Other than his size, that's why it was believable.

Heyman, one of my favorite legends of all time.

Great story telling, i could listen to this guy for hours!

Heyman's stories are so investing, he could even make watching paint dry the most exciting thing like winning the World Cup.

Paul Heyman could probably sell me a ps2 when Ps5 comes out. He's THAT GOOD!

I loved this squash match because like in other sports there are upsets and blowouts. Wrestling should be no different. There should be more unexpected squash matches

I hope Paul gets in shape. I'd like to see him stick around the biz a while longer.

Paul Heyman has the ability to put anyone over with just a few words or like with jinder mahal destroy their credibility in no time.

@Steven Willett I respectfully disagree and I'll tell you why. There have been guys in the business who are capable from both a story perspective and a wrestling perspective that easily outshine Bill Goldberg. Bill Goldberg was the product of right time, right place and nothing more. In another environment he wouldn't have gotten the push that he did. If you had Bill Goldberg go up through the ranks of the independents prior to his major run with WCW, I have my serious doubts that he would have gotten the infamy that he did. During his tenure in WCW there were opportunities for other more talented performers to easily give him his first loss. William Regal and DDP both come to mind immediately. Outside of WCW, you had the Samoan Badass Samoa Joe. A guy whose undefeated streak was based on having proper matches, proper 15-20 minute matches with recognizable people making them look like a million bucks rather than bulldozing through them. Mind you he came in to the game 10 years after Bill Goldberg, but the point still stands. And then you get guys like Meng/Haku who realistically make Bill Goldberg look like a child playing with toys. Haku if he was ever pushed the way he should have been pushed, would have been the guy to beat in WCW. But he was a soft spoken, kind hearted soul so it wasn't viable for him to take on that role. There are dozens of performers capable of taking down Lesnar legitimately in a wrestling environment(not MMA). Goldberg was booked based on his previous WCW run and nothing else. Having him at 51 years old take down a guy who is 11 years younger, in less than 30 seconds? That wasn't a smart booking decision.

I got a name. Kane. Big Red Machine comes in, interrupts Lesnar's first move, face jab, chokeslam, jab, chokeslam again, tombstone, done.

What an awesome thing to say about Goldberg at the end of the video. Very touching. Sure that will mean more to him than anything.

Could listen to this guy all day. A true raconteur like Kevin Smith.
