I agree, though it isn't hard to look good with Heyman in your corner. He was great with Punk as well, not just Punk, I personally enjoyed his run with Curtis Axel (and I wish I could say Cesaro too, as I love Cesaro, but WWE fucked that up too). Finally I also feel like Paul doesn't nearly get enough credit for his role as manager of The Dangerous Alliance.
As much as I love Paul Heyman, I cannot stand Brock Lesnar. He has no character, no personality, and he's boring to watch in the ring. I practically cried with joy when he finally lost the title so we could finally get some interesting matches.
Paul has completely saved romans career in my opinion, before two weeks ago the last time i cared about roman was when he went on leave for his leukemia
Ok so I'm not going crazy. I distinctly remember Heyman backing RVD then betraying him in Rob's match with Big Show, which led to Heyman managing Show again
1. Brock Lesnar 2. CM Punk 3. Rob Van Dam 4. Dudley Boys 5. Stone Cold 6. Tazz 7. Sabu 8. Roman Reigns 9. Big Show 10. Rick Rude 11. Hiendenrich 12. Team Angle 13. Not really sure about the others
I'd put Punk ahead of Lesnar. Brock could retire tomorrow and I think everyone would be fine with it. People still want to see Punk in a wrestling ring (to the point where they're a little crazy about it)
@@bobbyennis3521 and if WWE pushed him as Joe Hennig then I think things would've worked out better. Yes, Joe did need some polish, but when you're introduced with as stupid a name as Michael McGillicutty and then booked as a jobber, it's very obvious management have no faith in you, and your motivation will understandably fade. Had he come in as Joe Hennig, 2nd generation wrestler and son of Mr Perfect, that gives the guy credibility and confidence to push hard. I will admit though Curtis Axel is a very, very clever name, good job by WWE creative coming up with that.
1:17 I remember Team Lesnar by another name: "Team Sasquatch", as John Cena called them. That night was the start of The Doctor Of Thuganomics' LONG Babyface run. 4:21 Heidenreich liked Michael Cole more.
Anybody else notice how Curtis Axel was specifically left out of that video package Heyman showed for Roman in the bit about multi generational superstars?
Simon you forgot another group that Heyman managed at least backstage for the first 5-6 months of them in the main roster. The Shield. When they were called up they were basically Heyman's protection force for CM Punk's WWE title run.
Heyman as The WCW/ECW Alliance Heel announcer was the only good thing about the awful 2001 Invasion angle. He was a great Heel announcer before the formation of The Alliance (February 2001) but it was cool that he kept the announcer role, paired with J.R., even after The Alliance was formed and he pledged his allegiance to them.
Paul Heyman: Brock Lesnar CM Punk Roman Reigns Stone Cold I am not for sure that he working with the others all jey uso too.... while that's crazy. Ryback with paul heyman that's didn't work between them. Paul heyman was way too young back then when he was on WWF.
WhatCulture forgot about 'Mean' Mark Callous (for those unaware, he was later repackaged as 'The Undertaker' in WWE). He was actually a Paul Heyman guy too lol.
I know I'm in the minority here, but WWE's ECW wasn't a bad wrestling show. It just wasn't the ECW people were used too. The superstars & stories it made were actually pretty dope. It gave us CM punk, The Miz(solo), Kofi Kingston, etc.
I'm glad someone said it. WWECW from 2007 onwards was a great weekly show filled with upcoming wrestlers and veterans. By 2010, it was the best wrestling show that no one was watching.
*pushes glasses up nose* ACKCHYUALLY Heyman wasn't fired as SmackDown GM. He was drafted to Raw, and Bischoff said he'd make him his personal assistant. Heyman then quit.
Was Heyman responsible for changing Taz from his gimmick as the Tazmaniac to become Taz the Human Suplex Machine? I remember when his outfit resembled that of a sort of caveman before wearing the orange and black singlets (especially the ones that said "Tap Out" on it - my personal favorite).
Team Lesnar vs Team Angle at Survivor Series 2003 was great.John Cena and Chris Benoit were the sole survivors of that match.The entire event set up all the storylines which would finish at Wrestlemania 20.
Brock Lesnar as a Paul Heyman guy is without of a doubt one of the greatest monster heel runs of all time.
Brock Lesnar is the main superstar/legend you see Paul Heyman even outside of WWE in the UFC
I agree, though it isn't hard to look good with Heyman in your corner. He was great with Punk as well, not just Punk, I personally enjoyed his run with Curtis Axel (and I wish I could say Cesaro too, as I love Cesaro, but WWE fucked that up too). Finally I also feel like Paul doesn't nearly get enough credit for his role as manager of The Dangerous Alliance.
Tehj Boney oh totally. Brock would have failed without Hayman because of no mike skills
I don't like Brock Lesnar as much because of his part timer status. If he wrestled as a full timer, he had being one of my favs ever.
As much as I love Paul Heyman, I cannot stand Brock Lesnar. He has no character, no personality, and he's boring to watch in the ring. I practically cried with joy when he finally lost the title so we could finally get some interesting matches.
How to give Simon Miller Erections:
-Push Miro
-Make Roman a badass heel
-Stop the surprise roll-up finish forever
-Bringing back the Repoman
@@TakerKaneanite619 Hey hey, stop it there, you dont wanna blow the load to fast.
Also stop the distraction finishes
The first 2 yes the last one no. It needs to keep going FOREVER
BULLSHIT !! Just keep your damn "Simon Miller Erections" to yourself !!
Brock Lesner is such a Paul Heyman guy that to this day I still wonder why Paul didn’t do promo with Brock in the UFC.
Because he is wwe official
@@roshandeepsingh75 don’t matter that’s the cross over we needed
Curtis did a lot with Paul actually he won the IC title on Father’s Day successfully defended 5 times and even beat triple h.
I see you droppin' knowledge...
and tag team champion with bo Dallas
Paul Heyman has managed stars and jobbers alike
And his hype job on the Mic is priceless
Simon Miller doing a list makes me as excited as see Repo Man kicking out of a surprise Rollup on Rusev/ Miro Day.
This is a high quality comment
Working all of that on MiRusev Day is the ultimate win.
Kicking out for the 672nd time!
When will Simon fight Sammy
Who's Rusev?
Paul has completely saved romans career in my opinion, before two weeks ago the last time i cared about roman was when he went on leave for his leukemia
I'd love to see Heyman and KO sometime for the exact same reason Punk and Heyman worked so well. Those two together would make some magic.
The WCW Dangerous Alliance is insane.
It might be the greatest collection of talent ever in one stable.
That's a great video idea. Stables were the members killed it as solo stars. One that comes to mind is Nation of Domination
@@luedanger561 Also Evolution
@@luedanger561 the Shield would be amazing too
Brock was is & always will be "THE" Paul Heyman Guy..
But i definitely enjoyed him managing CM Punk..
But The beast is the best 🤘
Couldn’t agree more😀
Brock was is & always will be "THE ONE AND ONLY" Paul Heyman Guy..
@@atrociousconsequences4432 no.
@AAAnderson055 shut up its called a opinion never heard of huh stupid idiot what now your getting disrespect are you going to cry to you mommy
Agreed
Hey RVD is missing
Ok so I'm not going crazy. I distinctly remember Heyman backing RVD then betraying him in Rob's match with Big Show, which led to Heyman managing Show again
@@acecashman1237 right👍 i believe Rvd was a Paul heyman guy even in early 2001 during the Ecw/Wcw vs Wwf feud.

Ok, not just me....Thank you!
Simon is such a weirdo you can't help but love him

“My other dad Nathan Jones”
He was a character in Mad Max.
😭😭 simon is gold
I didn't know Goldberg and Nathan Jones were an item
Jonny sins
@@amaranandminz5996 BROOOOO
I was PRAYING it would be Simon doing this list!
YESSSS!!
@Ze TheGame me on a whatculture vid hoping it's Simon only to find out it's Andy 😡😤
Simon should become a Paul Heyman guy. Why? Here's why!
I swear I only come to this channel for Simon. Always great content. Never disappointed
Paul hey man and cm punk was my favorite Manager/client relationship in the business.
This list is spot on, I was expecting to see RVD somewhere there but am happy CM Punk and Brock are at the top coz wow, those partnerships were art.
RVD wasn't a Paul Heyman guy in the way this video is talking about.
The reason why Heidenreich is not at bottom of this list is a mystery to me
Like evolution
@@Iamtrashboat haha
1. Brock Lesnar
2. CM Punk
3. Rob Van Dam

6. Tazz

10. Rick Rude

I'd put Punk ahead of Lesnar. Brock could retire tomorrow and I think everyone would be fine with it. People still want to see Punk in a wrestling ring (to the point where they're a little crazy about it)
tmage23 I think you’re comparing the traits of the wrestler and the connection with the fans instead of whose more of the top Paul Heyman guy.
@@tmage23 WWE started to die when Punk left. It's still struggling for breath.
Sylva Luca I agree with that
@@Gevaudan1471 wwe was dying before that and was dying when he was there
What a fantastic video, extremely well researched and presented.
Him: number 27
Me:THERE WERE 27 OF THEM!!!
Axel was actually a Heyman guy for a while.
3 ppvs where defended his IC title and a match against Punk and then his association with Ryback.
Simon had a week for the ages😤💪🏼, BIG SIMON MILLER GANG, keep doing what you do man your great and absolutely one of the best voices on UA-cam.
Axle had so much potential
He definitely did thou
Look at who his dad was. That should've told you everything you needed to know
@@bobbyennis3521 and if WWE pushed him as Joe Hennig then I think things would've worked out better.

I will admit though Curtis Axel is a very, very clever name, good job by WWE creative coming up with that.
Dan Spivey is missing. He teamed with Mean Mark as The Skyscrapers and they were managed by Paul Heyman in NWA/WCW
I feel it's too early to put Roman on the list.
To be fair he’s already better than some Heyman guys like Axel and Ryback
@Chris Morocho his promo was good though. And to be fair the people in that comment sectiom hate on everything wwe does
@@mattj4112 lol Ryback was much better
@@haroonpaul1997 no
No 7 or 8
Heyman and Curtis Axel was definitely a underrated duo,their feud with punk was great
1:17 I remember Team Lesnar by another name: "Team Sasquatch", as John Cena called them. That night was the start of The Doctor Of Thuganomics' LONG Babyface run.
4:21 Heidenreich liked Michael Cole more.
WWE needs to hire more managers like Heyman, the dude can sell any wrestler
Anybody else notice how Curtis Axel was specifically left out of that video package Heyman showed for Roman in the bit about multi generational superstars?
Sabu to this day is still one of my favorite wrestlers of all time
I remember dark patriot in GWF vs the patriot lol
10 months later, it's safe to say the roman reigns partnership has got to be at least #3
I love it how Miller has the "MillerTron 5000"
Professional Wrestling doesn't deserve Simon Miller.
*True Story*
3.-Roman Reigns
2.-CM Punk
1.-Brock Lesnar
0:27 Simon summoned his inner Tony Chimel “when you DOOooo got through.”
I would love it if you were to do the same thing you did here, Simon, but with Bobby Heenan instead. Please, let's have this happen.
We need a faction with Roman Reigns, CM Punk, and Brock Lesnar. All with Paul Heyman as the "advocate.'
What’s important is not having Paul Heyman as a manager but having him manage you backstage
I'd say Hardcore Holly was pretty memorable in WWE's ECW after getting his back sliced open from going through a table.
Also when he was in a tag team with Cody Rhodes before he then went heel on Holly
CM Punk didn't need Heyman but they were so good together
You can have the worst of days, then watch a Simon Miller video & just feel awesome,
You know what Simon, you're getting an UP!!
A golden up i would say
Simon, you forgot one of the most famous members of the Dangerous Alliance, Medusa!
Simon you forgot another group that Heyman managed at least backstage for the first 5-6 months of them in the main roster. The Shield. When they were called up they were basically Heyman's protection force for CM Punk's WWE title run.
i just realized i knew simon miller from rock reacts, what a great surprise! :D
Heyman as The WCW/ECW Alliance Heel announcer was the only good thing about the awful 2001 Invasion angle. He was a great Heel announcer before the formation of The Alliance (February 2001) but it was cool that he kept the announcer role, paired with J.R., even after The Alliance was formed and he pledged his allegiance to them.
Number 27 curtis axel. Woah didnt expect that many!
Heyman Must be Manager of Entire Roster
how crazy. we are 3 months in and roman has jumped to damn near top 5
I never thought I'd see the day but you completely forgot about RVD😡
Damn why isn't cesaro isn't in the thumbnail lol
Also I remember what happened in 2003 because im a wrestling fan, hence me being on a Whatculture list video lol
How did you guys forget RVD?
Paul never managed him, so, I guess that’s the reason.
@@Jffeeney3rd Didn't he managed him in ECW at one point or was that just Bill Alfonso?
@@Jayage5d just fonzie
Sometimes i forget to like a video but good news for you Simon, i remember to hit the like everytime you say you like Brock Lesnar.
Paul Heyman:
Brock Lesnar
CM Punk
Roman Reigns
Stone Cold
I am not for sure that he working with the others all jey uso too.... while that's crazy. Ryback with paul heyman that's didn't work between them. Paul heyman was way too young back then when he was on WWF.
@Chris Morocho I didn't understand your comment.
@Chris Morocho so if he likes roman he's automatically a kid?
What a dumb thing to say
I feel like Tommy Dreamer was a Paul Heyman guy,that and my buddy Taz
Roman Reigns may very well be at least in the top 5 now... They ARE flipping excellent.
No.2 better
Snuka was a heel at one time, and fuded with Bob Backlund.
How long til Simon becomes a Paul Heyman guy
Maybe after this whole pandemic is over.
This was great however you forgot the entire SmackDown 6
I cannot see Brock Lesnar without Paul, like them not working together would be the weirdest thing ever
How good was the video package on smack down last night about there history was well done
people forget that undertaker was a paul heyman guy for a short time
Curtis Axel was with Heyman for months and he was the I-C champ. Just because he wasn't on Lesnar on Punk's level doesn't mean he did bad.
His name is paul heyman and he is the advocat from the reigning defending undisputed world heavyweight champion
I can't believe you put Curtis Axel on the thumbnail and not Kurt Angle.
😂😂😂Dude!!. Yes yes we can see the bulk!. Boy your arms Ave dubble in size!!. Oh yeah top video again brv!
WhatCulture forgot about 'Mean' Mark Callous (for those unaware, he was later repackaged as 'The Undertaker' in WWE). He was actually a Paul Heyman guy too lol.
They already said him
Quite the list of Legends(not all) that were/are "Paul Heyman Guys"
All this time I was waiting for Simon to give anyone an "UP" but then I realized this isn't Ups and Downs
I know I'm in the minority here, but WWE's ECW wasn't a bad wrestling show. It just wasn't the ECW people were used too. The superstars & stories it made were actually pretty dope. It gave us CM punk, The Miz(solo), Kofi Kingston, etc.
Exactly! I still enjoyed watching it.Obviusly it did not compete with other brands but I still could sit down and watch the whole show

2:25 that girl in between the andrea the giant statue is great.
the most i remember of hardcore holly is his finisher and that time he wants to break brock lesnar's neck lol
I love the m&m's shirt.
Forgot about RVD Hardcore Holly and Test?
you should do a list with Bobby Heenan"s guys too!
Imagine thinking there were only like 10 then he says Number 27
This guy looks like Johnny sins!
Trust me I already guess 1 & 2 Spot
And I thought 3 Could Be RVD and 4 is Big Show
Was Heyman responsible for changing Taz from his gimmick as the Tazmaniac to become Taz the Human Suplex Machine? I remember when his outfit resembled that of a sort of caveman before wearing the orange and black singlets (especially the ones that said "Tap Out" on it - my personal favorite).
Didn’t know Johnny sins was into wrestling, huh neat.
😂😂🤣
Now in 2024 the One and Only
Paul Heyman is going into the
Hall of Fame.
He definitely deserves it
Team Lesnar vs Team Angle at Survivor Series 2003 was great.John Cena and Chris Benoit were the sole survivors of that match.The entire event set up all the storylines which would finish at Wrestlemania 20.
Paul E's *mullet* was so epic 🤣
"Wrestlers With Low Threat Auras". Now that's sounds like it could make for an amusing video.
The Ellsworth Aura
I'm glad you mentioned Jimmy Snuka.
Imagine Paul heyman work with Lars Sullivan
Ya messed up Simon, you left out RVD.
RVD wasn't a Paul Heyman guy in the way this video is discussing
This was great simon
Should do a video on which 10 wrestlers you feel should be or could be Paul Heyman guys
Where would you put Roman in the list as of today?
But we are forgetting Mr.Monday night Rob Van Dam RVD and Rhino!!!
Yo, I'm a jerk cause I totally forgot Rhyno. Ps, it's with a "Y"...lol
Paul hayman best manager ever NUFF said!!!!!
Yo, kudos to that guy who asked for this video on other videos.
Curtis axel definitely up there
Is the thumbnail supposed to be a reference to Scott Pilgrim vs. the World?
Big Show vs Ric Flair in WWEs version of ECW was the Only good moment of ECW.
Crazy match!
