Is there anyway I can buy the entire show
That was an awesome story but did Vince really not know ahead of time??? Not sure Paul is being totally honest that's what makes it so interesting
@@michaelallanrubin2376 I believe him when he says Vince didn't want to know what Paul would say because Mick Foley tells the same story about the time he was shooting vignettes with Vince. Vince had specifically told Foley that he didn't wanna know what Foley was gonna do or say. Vince likes to be able to genuinely react to stuff on the air.
@@michaelallanrubin2376 everything Heyman said during that shoot about Vince was true
Would love to see him in aew :)
At this point Paul Heyman should open his own wrestling school based purely off promos
Not gonna lie, that would be a damn great idea.
Honestly don’t know why he doesn’t have one already. That’s a much needed skill he can teach
Or teach wrestlers how to sharp their mic skills.
why when booker t could do it and make 605 times more money and stars
@@sappyfoot love booker but we are talking about heyman right now. nobody touches heyman with the promos
"Stone Cold Steve Austin was drinking his first beer in ECW, damn you."
One of his best promos ever.
And that is saying a lot considering how many great promos Heyman has
yeah stonecold and sandman wasnt it drinking beer on ECW
@Pitt Burgh yeah i think i remember austin and sandman in ecw. also if stone cold stayed in wcw he wouldent ove had his career neck injury and its also a shame jericho left wcw cause he wanted to wrestle owen heart but he tragicly passed awway before he got to wwf.
Lol. Austin wrestled like 3 matches in his entire ECW run.
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
Can we talk about that Michael Hayes impression tho
And Vince! But yea the Hayes was dead on! 😂
His Stephanie impression was spot on
I could listen to Paul doing wrestling impressions all night
Heyman is great with impresions. On "my name is Paul Heyman" his Dusty Rhodes impresion is pretty nice hahaha
It was epic
Heyman is so good. He could probably convince me that the world is flat if he wanted.
@Not Sure i wouldn't blame him if that's the case
So he's a good liar then?
@@SandMan1998 yes
That’s cause it is flat idiot. The Firmament
So how do you know it’s round? Fck the pics bc those are edited
"The only reason Your the Champion, is because HHH didnt want to work Tuesdays" thats my favourite line from him
🤣🤣🤣🤣
That shits legendary and JBL’s reaction 😂
Pauly is the goat manager hands down
Learn how to spell. Favorite doesn't have a u in it
Basic as hell
"Nope idc just draw me money"
Classic Vince 😂
We need HHH and Stephanie to adopt that attitude.
Vince will let his on TV ego be smashed.... So long as it makes money
@@robinthom6438 he will let the crowd shoot at his left nut with a .50 cal if that makes him money.
The most Mr Krabs thing that he could say
@@jasondyrkacz8270
But we would need Jericho in the mix to just lay into the both of them like the old days to get some serious cash in the bank
Like have Jericho insult Stephanie real good then call HHH weak and soft saying now that he's in charge his best days are behind him and wouldn't stand a chance in the wring
It could keep goin with neither one getting a leg up on the other till it all comes to ahead in a hell in a cell match
“Will it draw me money?” 😂😂
why does it sound like Mr Krabs xDDD
@@NajCarnage He basically is. :P
one of the greatest promo ever
@@NajCarnage well the fact that Vince did not share enough of the money with Paul, i would say yea he is Mr krabs 😂
@@dharminacharya ironic CM Trump claims credit for the pipebomb. Perhaps people should ask him about why his racist wife pretends she doesn’t know Jay Lethal

@@deldrickdixon REAL WRASTLING!
It's so effortlessly how he' s such an elaborate, engaging storyteller
That's exactly why he was able to run ECW like a cult. Those guys would've followed Paul E. into the Sun, without question. He really made people believe in him & in the product.
He's absolutely brilliant
@@Krazyk007x2 I love that he didn't take shots at Vince McMahon and praised him because he knew the Smarks jerk it at anyone who takes shots at Vince
And his "shoot" analogy was awesome
I feel like that "draw me money" was practically Vince's mantra for that promo. He knew Paul would rip his heart out, chew it up and spit it back out, in front of thousands of people and millions watching, so he kept reminding himself to endure it for the money.
Vince was staying tough, for money, if he wasn't. He'd be mad.
Pretty much. He knew he'd get a new asshole ripped, but endured it and even kept quiet through it for the sake of the money it would bring.
Vince don't care, in the end he still wound up winning
Edward Cortez he had already won.
@@Thor-Orion That promo was fucking awesome, probably one of the best ever.
Heyman's impression of Vince and Michael Hayes are spot on!!
Yeah, and the Stephanie impression is hilarious. I can even imagine Stephanie laughing her ass off, along with Triple H.
If you like those impressions, which are awesome, you should hear him do Freddie Blassie! Just close your eyes, and you’d swear it was really him!
Even the Bubba Ray Dudley impression is really good, very subtle, but very good.
"You took Hulk Hogans blood and build Titan Towers" - Paul Heyman
Makes no sense at all Paul knows the wrestling business he should’ve kept that same energy for nwa, mid south, many other promotions who had a wrestler and made money off them
@@kamfisher1714 Paul heyman in another interview years ago admits he has no problem with what Vince did because he knew it if it wasnt Vince at the time another promoter would've started doing the same thing. It was inevitable. that's just capitalism 101 lol
The fact that Verne Gagne wanted to pay Iron Shiek to break Hogans leg at mania meant promoters were ready to step up to the plate and play dirty to get to the top and bring others down
Greenkidd what did Vince do?
"You took Bret Hart's dream, and bought yourself an airplane with WWF all over it!"
@@jrsmith1998 According to the Sheik, Vince McMahon SENIOR at the time heard about the Verne Gagne proposition, and offered The Iron Sheik much more money to not do anything stupid
One of the greatest wrestling promos of all time. Up there with Heyman's at ONS 2005
I literally rewatched ONS 2005 this morning. Right after I got done this vid got posted. Crazy.
Andrew Wagner dude that’s probably the craziest thing I’ve ever heard...
I hated the fact that the heels in the peanut gallery were laughing during his promo. It would’ve looked better had the heels just say there glaring at Paul while settling with anger.
I honestly thought they'd talk about the ONS promo when I saw the title
IMO, I consider this and CM Punks “pipebomb” promo shoot 2 of the greatest shoots ever.
Paul Heyman should not have been removed as the WWE Raw Executive Director. He has been putting out better storylines than Vince McMahon.
And shame Vince wanna take the credit if he thinks it's good which we already know how that turned out
And you know this how? Are u backstage??
Especially not to be replaced by Bruce Pritchard.. that's almost as bad as bringing Vince Russo back
Sam you can find out through wrestling news the “dirt sheets” as they’re called.
How was he? I haven’t watched in a couple years. These guys who are pushed aren’t believable to me
Isn't it ironic that 10 years later there was a Paul Heyman guy who just happened to drop another pipe pomp
and then some years later it was Paul Heyman guy's girl to drop another pipe bomb
which Vince also allowed and told Punk to do.
Devansh Doshi only reason she got to do it was cause she was dating punk
Both of whom that...Vince McMahon made money off of.
Coincidence, not irony.
Whenever someone says Paul Heyman can’t talk. I just show them that promo. This man could sell me Brock Lesnar vs a Paper Bag and I’d watch it.
LordChrome375 whoever says Paul can’t talk is dumb
Who says paul heyman cant talk hes one of the few that exist now that can
Soooo... Brock Lesnar vs. Ricochet, then?
Ikrani damnnnn😭 r.i.p. Ricochet’s wrestling career
I can honestly say that is a statement that I have never heard from anybody in my life and thank God, because if anybody ever did say that to me I would have to smack them upside the head to be able to knock some sense into them.
I just realized Heyman was choked out by Tazz and Samoa Joe
Both are machines
@@geeshiesty1630 Facts I like both but Samoa Joe is definitely one of my favorites on the list
I could listen to this man talk about wrestling for hours. The documentary about his career was one of the best ones I ever watched. His passion is so intoxicating. If anyone had even a quarter of that passion for literally anything else, they could use it to become great.
Where can I find that documentary
@@ulisesbastida8038 it used to be available on the WWE network, but since that's gone I assume its probably on peacock. It is called "ladies and gentleman, my name is paul heyman"
Love him or hate him. You gotta respect what he's done for the business
I love how everyone has a vince impression. All of them are different. and yet they are all spot-on
Edge and Dustin Rhodes are hilarious doing his impression
"Figuratively, not Literally." Cracked me up lmao
A younger wrestling fan I never understood heyman, now I'm an older wrestling fan I appreciate how good he is and how good of a talker he is
I was just saying this to myself
Whether you love him or hate him, Heyman's storytelling is second to none.
The more you watch Heyman talk, the more you see his influence on Stone Cold Steve Austin.
@@jasondyrkacz8270 Well, Austin developed his Stone Cold gimmick in ECW.
If you're a wrestling guy, what's not to love about Heyman?
My name is Paul Heyman, and I am the advocate for sitting backwards.
he's trying to hide his fupa
He's hiding his 10 ton balls for walloping on Vince, yay wide
Cleaver way of hiding his belly
He’s a lowkey fan of Ac slater
so fcking funny 🤦♂️
He makes Vince sound like Mr.Krabs and I absolutely love it 😂
"Vince McMahon jr, your life has ended and you stand before the one true God. You will be judged as the sinful, flawed mortal being you were. Have you anything to say for yourself?"
"NOPE!! DRAW ME MONEY!!"
I always crack up REALLY hard whenever paul does Vince's expression . Feels like paul speaks like Vince better than Vince does himself 😂
SPORTS ENTERTAINMENT! 😆
All of his impressions are spot on! Even his Stephanie one XD
The words of a genius. Heyman is an animal on the mic.
Paul Heyman is probably my favorite storyteller, I could listen to his stories for hours. 😂
He's a genius
Ikr! He has such a way of keeping you entertained the entire time. By the end i didn't even realize 10 minutes had passed. I could genuinely listen to this man talk all day
When he finally decides to retire from WWE, Conrad Thompson will move Heaven and Earth to do a podcast with Heyman
Damn I could Listen to Heyman all day
Fun facts: one of the reasons Paul Heyman at the time of ECW was so good at keeping his wrestlers up until the day the doors closed despite bounced paychecks was that he was so good at speaking and convincing u what is right and wrong. Paul Heyman without a doubt can convince anyone anything... he’s by far the best non wrestling speaker. Even tho taz chocked out Paul during the promo, taz was one of the few who cried during ECW rise and fall when he bounced to WWF Royal Rumble 2000. They are closest of friends
Kick ass your gonna
Where’s the “fun” part?
Paul heyman is so good, he could make walking to the mailbox and back sound like it’s the most exciting thing of all time. The pre survivor series promo and one night stand 05 promo are two of the best promos that we all still talk about 15 + years later
We were spoiled when Heyman and JR were doing commentary.
Had to pause this halfway through and go rewatch that legendary promo. I hadn't seen it since back in 2001 and I wanted to refresh my memory. Man, Heyman is on another level.
"Draw me money" is the most Vince thing Vince could ever say.
Everything Paul said from 7:35 to 8:27 was absolute genius, especially the jab at Vince Russo. One of the greatest minds ever in wrestling
I could listen to Paul talk all day long
Its all making sense now
I legitimately died laughing at that impression of Micheal Hayes
Hopefully you really did
No exaggeration, Paul Heyman is the best promo that I’ve ever heard on the mic.
Heyman explaining where Russo goes wrong with his shooting - genius
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.
Ndawr Cat except none of those Russo’s worked shoots worked in WCW, quite the opposite. The criticism is fully justified.
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.
Russo never drew a dime in wcw.
@@thepublichousebrandcom Russo drew more dimes for WWF than Paul Heyman
*”I just want my father to DiIiIiIeEeEEeE”*
I’m weak LMAO
Heyman has been and continues to be one of the truly great minds in the sport. Wish they would have left him running Raw but he'll make his impact elsewhere. Love ya Paul!
What if...heyman joined AEW? Imagine
*“Draw me money”*
Vince McMahon and Dutch van der Linde are very similar lol
OH PAUL, TEAR A WHOLE YAY FUGGIN WIDE AND FILL IT WITH MONEY GAUDAMIT
Except Vince McMahon at the time knew how to plan and execute said plan.
Lmao 😂😂
Well,Vince the 99 of 100 plans,end good.
Dutch In The Other Hand.....
Paul Heyman is one of the greatest talkers in wwe history. He is up there with the likes of The Rock, John Cena, CM punk And Chris jericho.
Anjan Gowda no they are up there with him and John cena is not in that tier
@@jamesmurray3096 John Cena is most definitely up there when he gets predominantly serious. Unfortunately his script often times than not gets filtered into a PG cringe fest catered to children.
Heel cena is up there
Cm punk is great but.
Paul heyman is way better.
My opinion tho
@@DrWiki-po1hk look up when Cena buried Roman when he went off script. When Cena wants to be serious, very few can hold a candle to him
I wish Heyman was the lead commentator or colour on RAW again
I like what he says about 'shooting' in reference to Russo. Its true a shoot only works if its in the context of the 'work'
The Bash at the Beach 'shoot' promo was a work, and so were his ones in the early TNA days with the likes of Dusty Rhodes and Mike Tenay. This is just Heyman putting something out there about Russo because it's that echo chamber of "Russo did nothing good, ever".
Russo had people applauding him for "finally telling it like it is about Hulk Hogan", but that's been replaced by "he killed WCW".
TheNextStep851 i agree. I think Russo didn’t understand wrestling well enough, but he also had ridiculous obstacles at wcw with the creative control. I think if he had someone to work with him and he had been willing to work with them it could have been great.
@@Thor-Orion He was working with Ed Ferrara. They worked wonders together in the WWF.
People often get this mixed up but he didn't need a "filter", because he was actually Vince McMahon's filter. All he needed was time, and protection from politics that Vince McMahon gave him. When he started writing RAW it took 9 months to see any sign of growth in 1997. In WCW he was given 3 months.
TheNextStep851 the wwf also had many of the best road agents and bookers of the time period if not ever. Take that and combine it with the talent themselves who implemented the ideas better than anyone could hope and all worked together towards a common goal. Yes he and Ferrara were great together but there are so many more factors than just that. Nothing great and huge in impact and scope is ever achieved by just one person.
@@Thor-Orion Yes, WWF had a great team all-round but you need to look at the common denominator. They had that same team before Russo and after Russo but viewership was way down. In 2002-04 they had the best roster they've ever had but the product was driving viewers away. The key is in the writing. 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.
Can we just take a moment, and mourn the poor souls who weren't old enough to watch that promo when it was first cut.
Its his charisma that drove ECW and its wrestlers to be so good. It was also his charisma that took advantage of everyone he could on its way down and why nobody trusts him. Doesnt take away from how good he is
I could sit and listen to Paul Heyman talk about anything, such an incredible storyteller
Ya know with Paulie's facial structure, and gift of gab, he would be a natural for the role of Violator in McFarlane Spawn remake
He’s the violator to Brock’s Spawn
@@WingsofHistory the problem is that Paul is simply too small
@@andrewjones3625 And John Leguizamo had to crouch down to play Clown. :)
@@JnEricsonx true but I don't think Paulie will be willing to do the same
@@andrewjones3625 Pretty much.
I remember being completely slack jawed when Heyman just *tore* into Vince McMahon. All the things he said were sentiments shared by many within and without the industry. But you really never *heard* it out on television let alone to his face. A masterful monologue and Heyman delivered it with near Shakespearean gusto.
Still hold up and is true today
One of my favourite Hayman stories is when he talks about doing a great promo (I'm thinking it was pre ECW era) and comes backstage and goes to Dusty and Dusty just goes "it was good kid, but where's the sale, you didn't even talk about the PPV"
Show's how quick of a learner this guy was
I’ve been following wrestling for 35 years and that promo was the greatest I’ve ever seen
It’s one of the greatest promos of all time and the longer time goes on the more and more true it becomes.
"Now that shoot draws money" as CM Punk could attest.
I was in the audience for this - Heyman is am absolute legend!
i can confirm you were. and you wouldn’t stop farting all night
This video deserves over one million views with all the hilarious impressions. This was the funniest inside the ropes video IMO
That shoot was and still is a work of art. As Heyman said, anyone can say something and call it a shoot. A true shoot hits the fan, in some way, in the feels. Even watching that promo today it is just so damn good. True artistry.
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
This was arguably Heymans greatest promo, and that’s saying A LOT! Knowing his ECW shoot promos on WWF/WWE/WCW.
Heyman was in charge of writing Smackdown in 2002/2003, which explains why Smackdown was way better than Raw during this period.
The best bit about this period is when Vince told him Triple H and Jericho were moving to raw he asked for Eddie and Benoit and Vince laughed… he then built the show around the Smackdown 6
@@kyleabraham2655fun fact, for the first 36 weeks after Paul took control of smackdown there's at least one match involving the smackdown 6
Paul Heyman is a genius. Could listen to him all day !

That michael hayas impression is so funny 😭
Paul Heyman demonstrating why he is the greatest promo architect in the history of wrestling

Ecw should have been what AEW is today. Paul Heyman is absolutely brilliant. Its sad he and his promotion were reduced to just another part of "sports entertainment"
So you're saying ECW should have been a trash company with wwe rejects that can't get a million viewers?
I too wish ECW lost to developmental talent
AEW is NOTHING compared to EC Fucking W.
ECW didnt have the financial backing AEW has, WWE just took ECW's biggest stars and put them out of business. WWE was gonna do the same with Omega and the Bucks but AEW matched WWE's offer

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
Through Night finally someone who really knows something. Teach people like this who doesn’t know anything.
I think some may have to do with it become a publicly traded company but idk. Hell I could go buy a share in WWE right now but its stock value is WAY low
@@thehunterstruck WWE became a publicly traded company in 1999, right in the middle of the Attitude Era, so I don't think it has a lot to do with the current product
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.
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.
I could listen to Heyman just doing impressions for hours on end
Probably the best on the mic of all time. Wrestlers today need to take Paul’s class on how to do a promo.
I would legit attend a promo masterclass from Paul Heyman.
I know it was all part of the show but some of that felt legit.
Also I remember when he brought up Vince's dad and mentioned his dads promise to not compete prior to his death..Vince was prob thinking "I never said I wasn't gonna compete pal"
It wasn't all part of the show Paul and Vince don't like each other

Man how fast 10 mins go. I can listen to this guy all daaay
Heyman is a guy I could listen to forever, he really delivers. This is how to do it.
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
I like hearing Paul Heyman talk. He's just pulling you in from start to finish
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 doubt Austin joining the Alliance was part of the plan if that happened.
@@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.
Heyman's truly the backbone of the industry.
I want an evening with paul heyman telling storys to the audience and doing impressions

Hands down Paul Heyman is the most intelligent mind in wrestling
How does this man not have his own company built around teaching promos ONLY?!?!?!?!
