    Heyman arguably has the best argument about Benoit ever. Granted Heyman was likely friends with Nancy given their shared ECW past but still it's a very honest take on it.

Why is it that guys like Jericho or Chavo are still publicly talking about Benoit without giving 2 fucks about what some may say? Maybe because deep down they’re still doubting about that day?

Just think about it, what fucking reason would WWE have to continue to say that Chris Benoit committed those crimes if he truly didn't, especially when the reasoning given for why he committed them reflects poorly on them as a company and has costs them hundreds of thousands if not millions in bad press and concussion protocols. Do you honestly think that if their was even a sliver of a chance that Benoit didn't do those things WWE wouldn't be all over that to clear themselves of any wrong doing attributed to them?

    I don't know that there is a better interview in the history of the business than Paul Heyman.
    And there are some great ones. But I never get tired of hearing Paul talk and tell stories.
    And the respect he showed for Daniel and Nancy is admirable.

    Wow, well Paul, if you ever happen to see this comment. Thank you. For everything, from day one of ECW, to coming to work for WWE and going to bat for guys like Brock to get over. I also deeply respect your views on the Benoit situation. I've always wondered about the amount CTE played a role, but you're right. It doesn't matter what played a role, he chose to do it. You knew the man. You know the industry. You know the toll it takes. So if you're saying that, then that's 100% where I'm going to finally go myself. It was a damned tragedy and there was no reason for any of it to happen regardless of reason.

    Loved Benoit's work and always thought he should be recognized in the hall of fame and possibly thrown in a wwe game, but I've thought of that tragedy like that. When Heyman puts it like that, he really shouldn't be in the hof, or mentioned at all. It's sad, but true.

    • @LoveLiveSabu238
      @LoveLiveSabu238 Рік тому

      WWE will never put him in the HoF, it would be business suicide. If you don't remember, the media storm around the Benoit Tragedy had quite nearly killed Professional Wrestling in North America. Could you imagine the hellish shitstorm of a backlash they'd get for trying to honor a man who killed his wife and child as an outstanding performer?

  • @dakotastarchild

    What's funny is he didn't bring up Benoit out of nowhere; the fan kept yelling "My boy!" and that prompted Heyman to address it properly.
