Annoyed Orange he only had one match against Mikey Whipwreck for the ECW title and he lost with a roll-up pin. If you watch the Rise and Fall of ECW, Heyman says the plan was to put the strap on Austin eventually because the promo he was supposed to cut after was him saying how badly he wants that world title. If Austin had stayed in ECW and developed his Texas Rattlesnake persona, ECW would have been forever known as the birth place of Stone Cold Steve Austin...unfortunately he still had hair at the time and it was long and blond

Meh, I’d argue that what he described is exactly what Russo’s philosophy is on shooting as well. He swerves the audience and convinces them to think it’s a shoot, when in actuality it’s a worked shoot to generate heat. Same approach. Russo’s character was a heel, he was never fully being himself on screen. People often mistakenly conflate the two. But hey, it’s the “cool” thing to trash the man at every opportunity and use him as an example of everything wrong in the business, so I’m not surprised at the cheap shot there.

I think the early stuff around 1997 before the Attitude Era had really been coined where they had Bret doing his anti-America stuff and Austin cutting some mean promos and of course, the legendary Mick Foley sitdown with JR had some real depth to it that felt exciting and built to bigger things. The post-Montreal sitdown with Vince that slowly spiraled into Austin v. McMahon was also well built. I think at a certain point, Russo just went to the "disgruntled" worked shoot well one too many times with no real long term build and that became the problem both in the later parts of his WWF tenure and through most of his time in WCW.

You can have an all-star cast in a movie with a huge budget and top special effects team or stunt coordinators, but if the writing and direction suck then it's all for nothing.

Right even though cm punk's pipe promo gets praise, it was good but not any game changer You see Paul Heyman's or Jim Cornett's shoot promos from the 90s and 2000s you can tell they understand how to work the crowd and keep it within the angle they're working in their shoots Cm punk's pipe bomb didn't work because he didn't have a Long feud from it....he did a much better work shoot promo against Jeff Hardy a year later because it built a long rivalry

Paul Heyman demonstrating why he is the greatest promo architect in the history of wrestling

This bloke is brilliant and will be remembered as such Long live Paul E

Man Paul Heyman is truly a one of a kind

If anybody remembers a guy named Tri Moon,he used to post a lot of Off The Air Footage. One of these videos featured the Heyman Pipe Bomb,but revealed that Heyman said The Alliance were going to "lift their leg and urinate on the grave of the Vince McMahon" but the Segment was re-done with that line taken out

Gone are the days when vince allowed his employees to say whatever they want on tv to draw more money. Now its all changed. Vince is now just opposite of what he used to be.

Because the modern day network TV contracts are worth way more money than ppv sales or tickets and TV networks want pg ratings. It makes perfect sense even if it brings the product down a bit

He no longer depends on ticket and ppv sales to turn his profit, it's about not offending all the huge corporate sponsors and shareholders. Every decision he makes is money orientated.

Probably the best on the mic of all time. Wrestlers today need to take Paul’s class on how to do a promo.

Heyman is a guy I could listen to forever, he really delivers. This is how to do it.

"Nope, just Draw me Money." "Shooting of itself, is very Vince Russo." - Paul E. on Vince McMahon (for Dangerously's Smackdown shoot promo)

I love the idea that the "Alliance" story line wasn't "Vince vs. Shane & Stephanie," it was "McMahon vs. Heyman" with Shane & Stephanie as his lackeys. The ultimate evil genius trying to take down the mighty Roman Empire. That would've been such a great story line.

Ideally, it would've been Vince v Bischoff v Heyman. Shane and Stephanie should've been in the background. If they had waited until the nWo and Goldberg were available, it would've been ten times better. If there was some way to convince Bret to come back, that would've blown the roof off. I know the big WCW stars were still receiving their payday and didn't have to work, but the Invasion storyline could've been improved immensely if Vince wasn't determined to bury the competition he just bought.

@@User-zz2nt I think it would've been better if Bischoff was designated as McMahon's lackey, which he essentially ended up being anyways. WCW was pretty much a non-entity then. WWF was the monolith that wouldn't fall, and ECW was the monster that wouldn't die. The nWo would've gone to Heyman's side and Goldberg would've gone to McMahon's side.

His impressions of Vince and Stephanie were spot on!

Paul will always be the greatest to touch a wwe microphone. So many guys have respect for him, even the ones that didn't like him back then knew just how good he was at what he did

Ive always been a Paul Heyman guy, but he is SUCH a smart man. I love hearing how his mind and works with regards to the pro wrestling industry. I could listen to him talk ALL DAY. Love you Paul E :)

I want an evening with paul heyman telling storys to the audience and doing impressions

New interviews!!! Yes!!!

I like hearing Paul Heyman talk. He's just pulling you in from start to finish

That michael hayas impression is so funny 😭

To Heyman and Vince's credit, the shoot promo paid off. Despite a terrible angle, the buyrate for Survivor Series was the highest in 3 years, beating the prior year's SS (with the Austin vs HHH headliner) or even the year before with the promoted Austin/HHH/Rock 3-way that was changed to Show/HHH/Rock.

Why have I never heard of inside the rope before I love everyone of them I've watched before so much better then some of the other ones I'm subscribed to

I had to have watched this video at least 20 or 30 times over the past couple of years and I have enjoyed it every time.

This was fun to listen to. Well done, Heyman.

I would legit attend a promo masterclass from Paul Heyman.

Paul Heyman is one of the ABSOLUTE BEST TALKERS OF ALL TIME

Man how fast 10 mins go. I can listen to this guy all daaay

Everything about this interview was completely awesome..

You have to admit Vince is pretty smart though. He realized Heyman specifically shooting on him would strike a chord with certain people. Turning into $$ for Vinnie Mac. Even when his ego is at stake he's finding a way to turn it into money.

I could listen to this man's stories all day,

Heyman is a master. Loved when it happend. Loved even more how he improvised when that dude propesed in the crowd during one of his brock lesner promos

Omg. Why have I never watched any of Paul's interviews. This man is gold. And I remember watching all this unfold on TV.

Gotta give Vince some props, he will literallly stand there on television, have people personally insult him to his face in front of millions and if it engages people all good fam

Paul impersonating Vinces laugh at the end is HILARIOUS

The way this man speaks about wrestling with such passion and intelligence, he can lecture me about anything and I will be 100% engaged.

I always recommend this video as a way of understanding branding in a company. Bubba Ray and Paul said it best. Strike a chord, and that will draw you money! Wise words!

He's definitely the best talker on the mc not one of the best the best in the history of the wrestling business in my opinion number 1 talker on the list and with all the great talkers that covers alot of ground but in my opinion he's number 1 best of the best never heard anymore as good as him I'd say Jim Cornette number 2 Killer Kross number 3 CM Punk number 4 The Rock number 5 that's my top 5 didn't really think Hogan was that great Austin just said he's would whip your ass and that's the bottom line because Stone Cold said so wasn't anything too witty that Austin 3:16 he came up with was brilliant other than that all he said he was gonna kick your ass Triple H is a good talker Kevin Owens is fucking awesome Randy Orton also and many others but Paul Heyman is head and shoulders above the rest
