Paul Heyman would make a great penguin in a batman movie
Never crossed my mind, but you are spot on. Become a casting director, my friend.
Fr tho 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lmao I said this before, thank you! You get it my friend 😅
Or Alfred Hitchcock
Low key the best part is Paul Heyman actually naming Nancy and Daniel, because everybody knows Chris's name but I'll bet a lot of people just know them as "Benoit's wife and kid"
I would assume Heyman was actually pretty close with Nancy since he worked with her basically her entire career in WCW and ECW.
She was actually in the business, so a lot of people did know her. She was known as "Woman"
Yup they were much more than that well said.
Nancy was a well known talent in WCW, definitely not a random person
Everybody that cared actually looked it up. And this whole thing is a sham. Literally nobody on this earth doesn't feel sorry for what happened to Nancy and Daniel. But ignoring the mental state of a man and letting his name die? In the same world where they are making Web Series on Dahmer, Ted Bundy etc?
Come on now, this whole thing is pretentious bullshit. Benoit wasn't even the first Pro-Wrestler to murder someone. There are a few who did and probably even got away with it.
It was a crime, it was unfair and sad. Was it heinous? I don't think so. Benoit's brain was fucked up from physical and mental trauma.
It's a breath of fresh air to hear him actually say Nancy and Daniel. I'd say 99% of fans don't know their names
99%… checks comments. Na boss I don’t think so.
Nobody cares
Tripping..if you're a fan that lived through that "thing" you know who daniel and Nancy are..r.i.p
@@OGDinkizer most wwe fans are kids bro
My bro I’m from 1997 I’ve been watching wrestling since I came out me moms beef curtains I know exactly who Chris Benoit is one of me greats (as a wrestler ) but after he did what he did I ended up crying as a kid I knew exactly the names of the family in fact did yah know Chris Benoit stole Nancy off kevin Sullivan ???I can walk you through that whole history plus I bet you don’t know who that is .. I know the full story I absolutely started thinking the man himself was toxic and full of roid rage .. so don’t say 99% cause i myself will win a trivia if it came to wrestling I still watch it and im almost 30 in 3 years I still watch all the old classic clips and look into old rilvaries including the infamous Montreal screw job I watch all that shit hello even watch the documentary on the iron sheik which hands owns was the greatest heel of all time in my opinion
Nothing but respect to Heyman. Everything he said was accurate and heartfelt. Nancy and Daniel were murdered, so to cheer the man that took their life is a deplorable and damn right sick thing to do.
The fact that Benoit was innocent and got framed there was no evidence that he did it
Oh, you were there to know what happened that night?
@@faylinn1 obviously benoits innocent
Heyman also says the other, truthful part - Benoit was an immensely gifted wrestler who had classic matches with everyone he wrestled. And its okay to admire he work
But he was an absolutely reprehensible person who committed an heinous crime
@@jak1165 There's reason to believe he didn't do it. Kevin Sullivan is the one who's reprehensible.
Finally, someone who doesn't cry over Benoit, but his family.
I've never seen anyone cry for him, its usually a discussion of advocating for whether or not that was the real Chris, or like the brain dissection that was done suggests that he was an 85yr man with alzheimers. To me there's enough reasonable doubt to say he wasn't a monster, but the physical trauma his brain endured turned him into one. This clip just feels like Paul is protecting his life's work which is a very common thing old school guys do. The only job Chris ever had was being a professional wrestler which ruined his life, his family's lives, and the lives of so many wrestlers. The wwe is very obviously negligent
@@HOLDFASTBEAR but 85 year old men with alzheimers aren't murdering people. This wasn't some old guy forgetting how to drive and causing a crash. He killed them with his own hands using physical violence and had the option to stop at any time.
@@TheRealAb216 absolutely. You can blame it on CTE or whatever you want but he STRANGLED them. Thats a slow extremely personal way to kill someone. So at any point he could have stopped and said what am i doing these are people i love. But he didnt stop. Heyman is 100% correct here. 3 people died ONLY 1 had the choice NOT TO. He killed himself because he knew he was gonna be in trouble for what he'd done. He was a coward.
A lot of ppl knew and loved nancy when she was with kevin sullivan (this is all the way back to early 90s) so theyre way more attached to her than they ever were to benoit. Heyman might be a lying piece of shit and master manipulator but he's got a point here and im with him
RIP Nancy Daniel and Chris
Out of all the people on the planet to start a verbal altercation with, this dude picks Paul Heyman? One of the best talkers in the history of the business? Heyman could talk a nun out of her knickers, and this guy wants an argument with him? Yeah, good luck buddy.
"could talk a nun out of her knickers" Oh. My. God
I always thought, and many more, that he sucked lol.
Lmao I love this comment, could talk a nun out of her knickers.
@@davidhubler9819 that heyman sucked at promos? What are you talking about
Bravo on the line, Heyman could talk a nun out of her knickers. 👏👏 I respect the wit
This is the convo of separating the art from the artist & Heyman a real one for not separating it
How could you it is what it was
But you couldn’t have had that tragedy if it wasn’t for the numerous unchecked concussions..when the brain is damaged..that person is no longer the same person.
He literally did separate it tho
Did you not hear him say you can admire his work? Thats literally separating the art from the artist, you goof.
Only real ones apparently understand what separation actually means.
Paul must've known the Benoits personally. What a passinate response from Paul Heyman. Love the creator of ECW.
Well duh he knew him lol Benoit worked for ecw and then him and Heyman were at wwe at the same time 🤣🤌
If I am not mistaken he worked with Nancy as well in WCW back in the day when she was known as Woman
He did throughout his career
Everyone who knew Chris knew how great of a person he was, he was kind, humble, respectful and was respected. It's heartbreaking what happened at the end
Hell yeah he did he knew everyone heyman been there a long long time he debated the crowd guy without offending him much. I like how he walked away and came back with his actual statement 😂
I think the name drop of Nancy and Daniel hit everyone in the heart 💔
As it should. They were victims. Benoit isn't a victim of anything. He did his own damage to himself and he killed his wife and son. Fuck him. I can't believe the gamma males in these comments trying to justify his murdering his family by CTE.
It took me a second listen to understand the storyline but it's truly sad when it comes down to it
Even New Jack Said the same thing. Him and Nancy were friends
And people forget that Benoit had his start with ECW before WCW/WWE. So when that happened it probably affected him the most.
It’s called reverse psychology, he knew he would win over doubters by such a small statement.. anyone with a 40+ iq knows Chris was setup
Finally someone spoke about it openly. Respect for Paul Heyman.
Bro a lot have
Not like that
New Jack said it first
I commented on a separate video with this same clip in it. I agreed with Paul and was blown away by how many people went off on me for it. They keep saying CTE, CTE...Chris wrote in his journal about the bad thoughts he was having, which means he could have manned up and asked for help after getting his family to safety. He did not do that, instead, he murdered his family and then took his own life.
@@tatum5000 when your mind is on the edge, seek help. It will often times save more than just your own life.
WRESTLING WOULD BE SO DIFFERENT IF IT WASNT FOR THIS MAN RIGHT HERE
Yeah less CTE
Paul Heyman is great voice for everything and to wrestling talent, he's one of pinnacles to be chosen by him as a manager. Getting him to talk real about subjects, you can really see how much a brilliant man he is.
When Paul Heyman is the voice of morality, you know you fucked up.
Look at the Facts of the case. Police said he died on Sunday autopsy said it was at the same time
Nancy was killed on Saturday why is this important because chavo got a text Sunday morning with Benoit address now why would Benoit send his address to Chavo when he has been there many times. Next why was there alcohol and pills next to Benoit lifeless body when he didn’t have them in his system you think Benoit someone who strictly trained would ever have alcohol next to his weights. Finally it’s been proven how Benoit hung himself with the weight cables was impossible to do by yourself there are UA-cam videos of people trying it with the same exact weight machine it’s physically impossible. Also police did a horrible investigation never interviewed the neighbors about chavo saying his last conversation on the Saturday Benoit had someone knocking on his door he didn’t expect company and sounded worried he said I’ll call you right back and never called back.
Yup
one of the nicest guys behind closed doors , just a good actor if you think otherwise
@@ashleybrown8837 people cant seperate gimmicks and real life
Not the voice of morality. Ignoring cte as a cause is essentially abstaining from any blame.
"Nancy and Daniel had no option"
As a father who loves the mother of my kids this hit so hard.
Even in his addled state, there were signs Benoit loved Nancy and Daniel. The sedations prior to the killings. The placement of bibles afterwards. As expressions of love go, it's warped, no doubt. But they're expressions coming from a warped mind.
@@chrissedaka8141 I agree. Though personally i've never liked Paul Heyman. The guy looks like he could pass for a paedophile
Jesus Christ Is The Only Way To Heaven Repent & Believe & Accept The Gift Of Salvation ✝️❤️🙏
As a father who despises the mother of my two children it still hits hard. It’s called being human being lol
bluds acting like loving his wife is an accomplishment💀
"I don't care about CTE"
We know Paul, we've seen ECW
This. This is my stance. I love Benoit to this day *as a wrestler* & I don't think he deserves to be forgotten only so his story helps prevent any other from suffering the same but what he did was unforgivable. Period.
This is very similar to John Cena's take on Benoit, he thought he was an amzing performer, but what he did was utterly atrocious and unacceptable. It's actually the reason John feels he shouldn't be inducted into the hall of fame.
He literally had the brain of a 80 year old with dementia which was discovered after his autopsy. I doubt he would have done so if proper care was done outside the ring
@@childishpaco7447murder is murder
@@childishpaco7447 zero people are denying this, but it could be argued that making this guy a hall of famer would be more than a little awkward
@@childishpaco7447 He murdered his wife and son. Nothing will ever justify what happened, and no excuses will ever suffice.
@@childishpaco7447Stop making excuses for these monsters. You’re just as bad as them.
We're almost 20 years past this awful event and Daniel would've been a young man getting his life started instead he'd never get the chance to.
We’d have Daniel Benoit instead of Logan Paul.
I mean benoit’s other son is still with us.
@@wonky9672 imagine a universe when Daniel never got killed by Chris and actually became a WWE wrestler and dominated the roster
@@pavitr4567 Imagine as hard as you want. It was never going to happen. Murder aside, Daniel was special needs. He had issues. He wasn't going to be a top WWE star.
@@Fektthis the kid was 5 what the heck you talking about dummy?
I love how Paul summed that up. I 100% agree.
I love seeing a serious Paul
His work as a sleezy manager has really misrepresented his legit skills to fans. He does his role perfectly, and people forget just how talented he is on the mic
Goofy Paul is a great character, but serious Paul is one of the greatest in WWE history on the mic
Sucks he's gonna end up like the other paul
Me too I don't like the Paul Heyman "Wiseman" thing
I don't. I think it's scary 😂😂
"I dont care about CTE"
- the employer who didn't pay health insurance
They also didn't care when he was pumping himself full of steroids to perform better in matches which led to the tragic event so fuck them
No lies detected
roid head junkie went haywire so quit being naive
CTE doesn't absolve him of murdering his wife and kid
@@sneakin3274 no one said it should, but it is an explanation on how someone once normal can do something completely insane.
The rabid Wolverine, the Canadian crippler, the character played was great. The man who played it was deeply fractured.
You spelled evil wrong.
A lot of people are deeply fractured, most get professional help not commit multiple homicides.
@@stevenbozic8604There is no excusing what he did. But when your brain is so damaged that it resembles an 80 yr old dementia patient, and you've got 10x the normal level of testosterone due to steroid abuse, it's only a matter of time before something breaks in you, whether you get help or not.
Can't condone what Benoit did but for Paul to just ingore how CTE can ruin someone's mind seems stupid.
The man knows how to speak its remarkable
You're speaking too. I guess we all know how to speak. Good thing God invented language, huh? It's great knowing how to speak.
@@JonSylar And you don't know how people speak since you don't understand that the term "speak" is used differently here.
Says the company man
Like he ever visited Benoits house or went on vacation with Benoits wife and kids he don't give a shit about him
So does my 2 year old, it's remarkable.
Were you just itching to comment ANYTHING?
Imagine if the fan yelled out "my boy" one last time at the end 😂
The crowd would've probly sent him to go meet "his boy"💀
@@cartier914 😭😭😭
Omg heyman be like Brock get him.
He could have said "I wonder what's for dinner"
😂😂😂
Paul Heyman gained a new level of respect for me for speaking up for the deceased whose choices were taken from them. Bravo Mr. Heyman!
You can admire Heyman's promo work all you like, but respect the man? More than a hypocritical, don't you think?
If more people actually cared about CTE, Those Three People Would Still Be Alive….
EXACTLY!!!
When it comes to WWE fans clearly everyone is for themselves. Fakest out of whack Disney 😂
Correction IF wwe cared about CTE. People care about them obviously wwe or should I say Vince didn’t at that time
@@TheICEDoutking nobody cared. Benoit wasn't the first athlete with CTE to kill themselves or someone else.
And we do that's why WWE takes concussions extremely serious now. But that doesn't excuse murdering your wife and child no matter how you want to spin it. Like Paul said, fuck him.
Paul is 100% right
Nope.
@@themonsterunderyourbed9408 no he's absolutely right. Benoit could have killed himself and sparred nancy and daniel. And they would be here now .not to say they would live happily. But for him to do something like that to his innocent wife and son , is so fucked, heiness, unthinkable, selfish and unforgivable. Here's if u are going to defend benoit, u are basically saying u don't care about his family gets killed and care for yourself
@@didimatjila7463 False. Benoit's brain was fried. When someone has severe dementia, they can't really be held responsible for their actions. Benoit's brain was fried worse than a severe dementia patient.
@@didimatjila7463look up the medical records. Base it off FACTS, SCIENTIFIC PROOF. Your not a doctor, Paul is not a doctor, opinion and emotion doesn’t prove anything. I’m not saying i agree with what he did, but science proves Benoits brain was beyond damaged.
Benoit did not kill his family. It was a cover up. They were all murdered. It makes me sad seeing benoit wrongfully blamed.
Paul is the only one to set the record straight. "Only one person had the choice behind it. The others didn't have a choice to die, if that's your boy.. FUCK YOU!" Pauly is damn legend.
Nobody can say with 100% certainty that Chris Benoit did this. Have the police been able to clear his son? That’s who I believe REALLY did this.
Damn fucking straight here Paul - yes he was an amazing wrestler and it is possible to admire his work but you can never ever, even taking into account the state of his brain at the time, forget his final actions.
So, for example if a man lives a perfect 50 years of life but then becomes a monster the last 3 minutes of his life, do you judge him by the 50 perfect years or the horrible last 3 minutes of life?
@@DonovenGreyif his last 3 minutes is killing his wife and child, then yeah I'm judging based on that.
@@blitzy7961it's possible to judge both. Chris was a victim here too...his mind wasn't right. And this isn't an opinion. It's a fact. We have nfl players with cte committing suicide because they going crazy. Benoit went crazy for the same reason. Years of abuse on his brain. I'm sad for all involved but some people like to make it like you can't be sad about both and miss the wrestler for his contributions to your life while also not condoning violence and the head trauma that caused him to go crazy. There is a reason wwe banned chair shot to the head after benoit. Plenty of wrestler have cte right now and don't know it. We may gave other tragedies coming.
No one knows what went on that night they are claiming CTE but who knows what really triggered the event state of the marriage triggers who knows if they we’re splitting up or not we will never know the real story very sad for the 2 that had no choice in their death
@@DonovenGreyyes! If someone does something unconscionable then it overshadows the other things he did in life.
Paul does not wanna talk about it because he is probably the cause of many concussions Chris had. ECW didn’t care about the well-being of their wrestlers.
I’ve been watching the old ecw tapes and they have some great matches don’t get me wrong but idk how people didn’t die every show
It's ironic and hypocritical for this to be his view with all that being taken into account. He's lucky none of his main ECW guys ended up on the road Chris did.
@@CtKEngage didn’t Chris fight for ecw too tho. I know a lot of talent went from company to company after their contracts were up
@Yutsuda he did but only stayed for a couple years like plenty of others. His style from Canada and Japan didn't change but that still doesn't change the fact ECW was physically insane for everyone that worked there.
You can say that things would be different if he didn't have concussions due to chair shots because he chose to be a wrestler and work for Vince McMahon..you might be right. But playing the what if game doesn't change his serial killer actions..he murdered his wife and son in cold blood. Had he not suicided himself like the coward he was, he'd be in jail at a minimum for life; so he knew his life would be over regardless..
I live by a certain motto and in a certain way. I never try to deliberately impose myself on anyone with my problems. I don't do that. I'm far from perfect and we all have flaws but his actions are that of a serial killer and there's no way to overlook that.
How Paul Heyman is not an actor I have no idea that man can easily destroy that perfection
"I don't care about CTE. I don't care what the reasons are."
What Chris Benoit did was absolutely horrible.
What happened to his mental and emotional state was absolutely horrible.
Many things can be true at the same time. Nothing happens in a vacuum.
"I don't care about CTE"
We know, and that's how we got into this mess in the first place.
That needs to stop being an excuse. He's a child murderer
@@Starkweather133It's not an excuse, it's reality. Just like a dude with tourettes who randomly blurts out a curse word isn't an excuse, it's his reality.
@@TeeAiDee I'm pretty sure most people with tourettes suffer from ticks. Concussions don't automatically make a murderer
@@Starkweather133 Correct, concussions don't AUTOMATICALLY make a murderer. I've had my share of concussions and have never gotten violent with anyone. But I don't have CTE, and CTE DOES frequently cause violent mood swings.
Introduce some nuance into your worldview. It'll do you a lot of good. We should all care about CTE.
@@Jayce_Alexander I never said I don't care about CTE. It's scary and it's sad. I just don't like it being used to excuse what Chris did. Hundreds of thousands of people probably have CTE and most of them aren't murderers
That’s a man that was genuinely hurt for a minute trying to keep his true composure.
"I don't care about CTE" Yeah that's the problem
There's always a choice.
How so? If the brain has been so traumatized to disrupt the very decision making faculties required TO make a choice, how does he have the ability to make the choice?
@@thomasfisher763So how does that same brain make the decision to whack his wife and kid?
Choice of…. Live in this crappy world when that can happen to anyone… maybe some long choices of damage or genetics…
@@thomasfisher763Benoit had the rationality to call multiple people, to fake a story about he and the family being sick and missing his flights, to tell them the doors were unlocked, and ultimately to take his own life instead of facing up to what he had done. He made every choice that weekend with deliberation.
I don’t care about CTE. Spoken like a true company man.
Yeeeeea. I don't think it's really a company man thing necessarily but he was way closer to it than us and just let's his emotions get the better of him.
Cte is deff a big part of it and wwe is almost as culpable as Benoit himself
I think he meant: "I don't care about him having CTE because it's not a justification for what he did" as opposed to "I don't care about CTE at all, too bad...deal with it".
@@zeked4200 that's still just as bad. Cte made him do it. He was a victim as much as his family. He was literally made crazy by a company it properly caring for their workers
@@ot00s1cko "He was a victim as much as his family." You can't seriously think this. CTE may have attributed to Benoit's declining mental health, but you cannot *seriously* say these words: Chris was just as much of a victim as his wife and child that he MURDERED. Ain't. No. Way.
@@ot00s1cko You know he’s the one who came up with that reckless style long before WWE? Ya’ll really defending a guy who killed a woman and a child and play the CTE card when his wife took physical abuse before and already asked for divorce years before that
I’ve watched a lot of Chris Benoit contact, particularly in the past few months. I’ve re-watched his matches, I’ve re-watched his relationship with Eddie, I’ve watched breakdowns of what he did, I’ve watched him melt in front of the camera after Eddie’s passing, and I’ve heard so many people tell so many stories about him. For some reason, This video hit me way different than everything else I’ve seen before.
You’re easily manipulated possibly 🤔 go see a doctor
If it took this video and not the fact he killed his wife and kid then f*ck you.
The Benoit situation is so weird. Man. I studied CTE like hell for a long time. And based off the stories I had heard of the guy, I wanna know if that's what actually happened. How the fuck did he keep episodes contained, because you just have no control over when it happens, you just go into fits of rage at random. It's wild that I personally haven't found one story Saying that he had one in front of any wrestlers
@@KOHoxtonI have always wondered about his case myself cuz they said when he left raw or whatever the show was the night before or whatever night was his last show they said Chris took a unusual route home and said he was paranoid about something and for awhile had been acting a lil paranoid like ppl were following him and I remember Eddie's wife Vicky even saying after Eddie died that she had found Chris laying on Vicky and Eddie's bed on Eddie's side curled up in the fetal position weeping into a pillow over Eddie. Now I understand the brotherhood I understand the bond that is made but that always struck me as weird ya know that's something I can see his wife and kids doing over Eddie and probably did do on more than one occasion but for Chris to do it struck me as weird very weird just something seemed unhinged about him before the incident and I think had more ppl asked questions and checked on Chris and maybe stepped in and said hey ya know Chris maybe u need to see somebody maybe the awhole thing never wud have occurred. I def think something else was going on and not just cte.
@@aaroncarter8471 I've personally always wondered about the "people following him" thing, I don't understand how he'd never have had an episode backstage if it was as bad as they say it was at the time, I'd actually like a re-visit of that case one day. With the much better knowledge of CTE we have now. In comparison to then, I've also wondered what the chances are. That the whole situation kinda sounded like it could've been some fuckin weird extortion tactic or something, as if they were being held hostage. Just the random texts and phone calls that went out that day, just the way everything played out. The way he had delayed a flight with intention of showing up the next day, the paranoia of various black cars and people following him. CTE can cause confusion and episodes of confusion. Rage. And paranoia, but I've always wondered if that shit was real. Because if it was. We may have missed something a lot more important.
Society will never get better as long as we prioritize talent over deeds.😢
Paul Heyman: "hit eachother in the head with chairs for money"
Also Heyman: "nothing to do with me"
😂 Paul Heyman, moral compass
Legit facts
Good point. This situation is not as simple. But obviously it’s easier for WWE to ignore the fact that his lifestyle/work may have had an impact on what happened that night
All the other guys that hit each other in the head with chairs didn’t do what Benoit did.
@@kidneystonermusic All the other guys that hit each other in the head with chairs didn’t do what Benoit did
I love how Paul Heyman acknowledged Chris Benoit as a talent professionally and equally gave him the condemnation he deserved personally.
Except he didn't acknowledge the actual issue that caused him to do what he did, which only happened because of his profession. Dude literally brushed off his brain damage.
@@iEATW0RLDSas someone who's worked on the brain unit for 20+ plus years.... What the official statement said is completely bs
Il explain why in short form..... Anyone who had the level of cte and dimentia to the level the official statement said a person could barely remember there own name never mind wrestle
My professional opinion is that eddie passing was huge for him and he went in to a deep deep depression that on top of the steroids and all the medication he was on at the time caused him to have a mental breakdown and he couldn't take it anymore and he wanted to leave this world and he wanted to take his familky with him......... People with. That level of cte don't think about putting a towel on the gym equipment before he done what he did him doing that from my professional stand point is he was in sound mind enough to do what he done
"I don't care about CTE" That's a weird statement 😬
Not really since there's so many of his defender use CTE as an excuse to make Benoit killing of daniel and nancy less bad.
Use CTE all you want but it will never change the fact that he killed his wife and a fucking child that could've grown up with bright future.
I don’t agree with what Chris did, but you see how even other men ignored his brain issue
I did see David's tights and hear him say he wants to wrestle under the name Chris Benoit Jr. I can only hope that David brings redemption to the Benoit name in pro wrestling.
Yeah, but he doesn't believe that Chris killed Nancy and Daniel. Kind of makes you wonder what the wrestling companies think of him.

Chris and his family would still be alive if people cared back then.
100% the lack of empathy from his co workers and the disregard from the industry are what made it happen. If they gave him the help he needed and didn't over look it they would all still be alive. The industry is just as much to blame if not more than he is.
@@darrensj1but to take the life of the one he supposedly loved and the child he helped enter this world? He is to blame for that not the industry. What happened to him, that was the industry’s fault.

Yeh the classic blame it on everyone else but the actual person who did it himself card 🤡 @@darrensj1
So you're saying that the reason he killed his family is because nobody cared? That's absolutely rubbish, people cared it just wasn't blatantly obvious, because there's always people who care. The fact he took 3 people's lives including his own for selfish reasons is absolutely disgusting.
@@TheOneBlackKidd Not to mention the stories about what happened that night. There were people that cared greatly, but that doesn't mean they could do anything about it. People need to understand the difference
Paul Heyman discovered Chris Benoit working in Canada and brought him to ECW. When it folded and Paul went to WCW, he signed Chris Benoit to be part of his Paul E. Dangerously stable. And when Paul Heyman goes to WWE and became the Head Booker, he pushed several ex-WCW wrestlers to the moon, like Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero, Chris Jericho and even Rey Mysterio.
Heyman's view is 100% correct.
" I don't care about CTE " that mindset is why 3 people who could still be here aren't.
Completely missed the point. By a mile.
He's saying that to people who use it as an excuse for why Benoit murdered his wife and kid, and left his other kid alone.
Heyman definitely isn't the best one to be bashing the morality drum, but he's 100% right here.
Benoit had a choice, no amount of brain damage can excuse what he did that night.

NOWHERE TO BE FOUND HOW BOUT BLACKS AND DEMOCRATS IN CHICAGO SAYING GUN CONTROL STOP GANGS. SORRY NEITHER GROUP THERE PROOF. WHITE MARINE ACCIDENTALLY KILLED BLACK MAYBE SAVIN PEOPLE ON SUBWAY PROTEST BLACK LAWYER ADCTIVIST WANTED HIS MONEY. BLACK COP KILLED GETTING HOME BY 4 BLACKS. NO LAWYER NO PROTEST. MOTHER APOLOGIZE FOR NO LOVE FOR KIDS. THIS IS RACISM AT BEST. THEN THE FAMILY OF BLACK KILLED BY MARINE LEFT GUY HOMELESS WANTS JUSTICE. RACISM BARR THESE LAWYERS. SAME HERE BENOIT ON STERIODS HEYMAN TALKING TRASH. ITS OK FOR KIS MONEY MAKER LESNAR TO DO STERIODS. COULD POSSIBLY KILL SOMEONE EASILY. SO IF HEYMAN CANT GET LESNAR FIRED HES HYPOCRITE. SHOULDN'T DISRESPECT BENOIT. ON BLM I SAY DEMOCRATS PAID THEM TO RUIN TRUMP. JUST LIKE SOME BLACKS. MONEY BEFORE KIDS AND FAMILY
Benoit was my absolute favourite. This is the perfect take on it. I agree with him. He puts it perfectly for me.
there are other HOF wrestlers with a background of murder or domestic violence to slaughter him and not crucify the others is damning
As a human being he was framed. Dude was an amazing wrestler and I hope when the truth comes out his legacy will be restored.
I love Paul. Even in his disgust (well deserved) for Chris he still shows respect to his career.
Exactly. We should be able to respect his career and abilities while still condemning what he did to his family.
You can’t have both foh
@@ryanphillips4218You seem to be confused. His career is respected, but he isn't. Not just what he did to his family. Benoit as a whole, disgusting.
@@ryanphillips4218You can't separate that art from the artist. You can appreciate skill. Not nostalgia. That makes you apologetic. Not condemning
@@ryanphillips4218if you look back at his matches and have anything but disgust on the mind, you don't qualify to discuss.
But Paul is still working for the company that tried to distance themselves from it, when they was just destroying peoples brains for entertainment. I have always been a wrestling fan but seeing how back in the day they didn’t actually care about their wrestlers is heartbreaking. Vince is a evil, disgusting human being.
When they concluded that Benoit had the brain of an 80 year old Alzheimer's patient, Vince was right to question that. 80 year old Alzheimer's patients don't successfully conceal that illness from everybody in their lives only to one day snap and massacred their family. Reality doesn't work that way.
So is Donald J Trump. Still Scott free.
You know that Benoit worked that way long before wrestling for WWE right?
You’re here calling McMahon evil and disgusting but defending a person who killed a woman and a child, congrats
Dude im not sayin vinnie put a hit out on benoit but what if Benoit was gonna blow the whistle about vinces hush money and vince silenced him and Nancy?
Matthew- shhhh dumbo. Worldwearyangel - there ia no evidence if it was actually chris benoit, some people say they all were murdered by benoit wife’s first husband “Sullivan “, wwe and haymen are just trying to be safe by blaming it on a dead guy, son yk nothing lmaoo
Thank youMr. Heyman for going against the grain. The truth hurts sometime. 💔
I always sperate the art from the artist, and in that regard I dont think ive seen a bad performance put on by Benoit. As a human being and the incident the blame is split 50/50 50 on Benoit for not trying harder to get the help he needed and 50 on the doctors who did not look out for this mans health. His actions that night were horrific and I hope It servers as a lesson that we need to look out for in any sport where head trauma and brain damage is a possibility.
Its disturbing how many excuses yall give benoit for murdering his family. Paul is saying CTE or not..dude murdered his family. Chris benoit was a character. The actor/wrestler playing the character did a great job. Chris benoit outside of that..murdered his family.
Odds are massively in favour thhat he did it. But it could not bee proven... how do you know he did not find them dead already? And just wanted to join them? How do you know?
let me guess you give jimmy snuka a pass because he was a minority right? it's because benoit was white huh? yeah shut it... hall of fame should be based off career and not personal life...benoit should be in the hall of fame for his career achievements...just like snuka is in the hall of fame.. never mind he killed someone and got away with it...
@@tomteasyy5875 It was proven.
@@tomteasyy5875Don't be stupid kid.
@@tomteasyy5875let me get this straight...you are saying he found his family dead and instead of calling 911 he decided to kill himself?......make it make sense please....he killed them....don't matter if he was crazy he still killed his kid. Nothing justify that.
This is why Paul Heyman is the best voice in the wwe. Unapologetically he's never out of character
Its lowkey annoying how everyone give chris crap constantly but no one gives snuka crap for killing his wife and got put in the hof too thats bs to me
Jimmy “Superfly” Snukka deleted his wife??
That is my boy because I don't believe he did it.
This is paul heymans inner guilt coming out for playing a role in benoits cte
And scamming all those wrestlers in ecw putting their body online for heyman to just destroy their credit and name
@@pleaseshutup7053 or causing them to go broke like he did chris candido and sunny by never paying them. Heymans a piece of shit, only the new fans who watch him talk for the guys who cant cut decent promos by themself, have any resepect for him.
Playing a role? It was nobody's fault but Chris Benoits, he had a move that made him jump off the turnbuckle and headbutt people. Don't blame other people for him killing two innocent people
@@SerjianTuuuski5 lmao so did d von dudley and you didnt see him kill people, so there goes your idiotic arguement foh. The stupid shit paul heyman put his and all his talent through played a role in all of thier respective issues outside the ring. Do some research before you speak
@@SerjianTuuuski5 And an employer has a responsibility to keep their workers safe while on the job. If something is known to cause harm in the long term, it's on them to step in and say "Not here". But Paul didn't mind people injuring themselves irreparably week after week for entertainment. I mean, what's a flying headbutt when you're okaying barbed-wire steel chair headshots?
Paul Heyman real life Penguin
He's a walrus not a penguin.
Well he does lye on his belly for Roman
Paul Heyman is a Protagonist version of Kingpin from Marvel 🤣
"I don't care about CTE"
Oh yeah we know this PaulE.
You can make excuses for Benoit as much as you like, but the tragedy isn’t Benoit. It’s Nancy and Daniel. End of.
@@brandonboard5556 ok, but if you wanted to really acknowledge the issue 3 people's lives could've been saved. But you do you.
He’s right. Especially since he knew the Benoit’s extremely well. Also, picking a verbal fight with Paul Herman is one of the dumbest things you could do.
Benoit is/was one of my all time favorites. I find it hard to bring up his name anymore. RIP Nancy and Daniel.
The guy that killed half of the ECW roster by allowing a drug and alcohol filled environment along with a consistent hardcore wrestling vibe, the pot is calling the fucking kettle
Bullshit, they were all grown adults, they made their own choices.
Thats a stupid ass comment bro. Wrestling has nothing to do with murdering your family
@@davidgraham8299 exactly. He allowed grown men to make their own choices with their personal lives. So long as you came to work.
@@GenesisJay he ain't their effen daddy....they are grown ass men....relax dude.... Accountability....tryin to blame another man for men's actions...wtf lol
@@anon2414 dumbass they were performers who followed a script by the producers (Paul H) and other writers wanting the program to be as brutal as possible for high ratings yea the wrestlers made the choices they did in the ring but it was up to the company to get them the medical attention and treatment they needed after every show they put their body’s on the line for YOUR entertainment the least you could do is appreciate that
"I don't care about the CTE"? Really? If Vince and WWE had a better duty of care to its staff and performers then Nancy and Daniel would most probably still be here
Why does the company responsible for so many premature deaths get a pass? And this is not excusing the horrific actions of Chris but it certainly was not something he had control over
Brain trauma needs to be taken into account here, and why it went so unnoticed for so long at a major corporation that has the facilities and finances to look after its employees
He's saying that CTE isnt an excuse.
@@timothyblair7464 it's not excusable but it is a reason potentially beyond his control. If CTE was the main driver of Benoit's psychosis then it's hard to blame him given he didn't intentionally give himself CTE.
@@timothyblair7464 did you read any other part of the comment?
Nah don't blame WWE or Vince for those lives being taken...
it was Chris, may he rest in shit
@@sportsentertained He literally did several diving head butts and took too many chair shots in order for Benoit himself to prove that he was that guy buddy. No one asked Benoit to take so many shots or diving headbutts
Never liked Paul when I used to watch WWF/WWE…but that speech has made me give him so much respect it’s untrue and I agree with it 100%. CB as a performer - brilliant but as a Human - there are no words invented
Respect - Paul
The real reason chris Benoit was erased was because the WWE actions led to it
He also murdered his family and himself.
You mean ECW as that's where it started
It was definitely part of it.
You Benoit defenders will blame everyone but Chris. Embarrassing
They had no choice but to erase him really
Lmao “I don’t care about CTE” spoken like a true businessman
Considering it can't be proven to someone has passed away we shouldn't use it as an excuse
CTE is not en excuse and that's what Paul was saying.
@@Alex-tw8nbit’s called an autopsy, and you in fact can prove it, along with a lot of other conditions. Ya know, which is the whole point of an autopsy.
@Alex-tw8nb it was proven! His brain was literally like Play-Doh
From all the chair shots &&, doing his move multiple times
@@jayehm9446 ya know an autopsy means to discover the cause of death thanks for proving my point 👍
ARE YOU SURE HE REALLY DID IT?? WE'RE YOU THERE SIRR
Bro rolls like 10 R’s randomly in his vocabulary 😂
I find it funny that he doesn't give a fuck about CTE but yet CTE was the entire reason he did it so it's actually pretty dam important
I do like Paul, but he is pretty ignorant on a few things.
Thank you for this, people dont know shit and when they do they try to act like it doesnt matter because they want so much to be right
I don't think it was him that did it that night he wasn't himself I can't believe he's blaming him just wish someone was there to stop him and get him help
I don't necessarily give him the pass for killing Nancy and Daniel. Especially seeing the possibility that (Dave Meltzer reported) bruises consistent with the application of the "Crippler Crossface" on Daniel. CTE can drive people to murder, yes. But not essentially torture a little kid. But, more often than not, it drives people to suicide, before murder.
It doesn’t mean he can’t know what’s right and wrong.
Heyman speaks truths because in all honesty that was disrespectful especially with what Benoit did which was tragic.
As a human being he doesn’t care about brain damage that is caused in that industry that has many people fall of mentally. No excuse to benoit but that was pathetic to say
Paul Hayman can criticize all he wants but he was in charge of ECW for a LONG time and if there was a brand that didn’t GIVE A SHIT about there performers health it was THAT BRAND HES GUILTY OF CAUSING A LOT OF WRESTLERS TO GET CTE Those were some of the most brutal matches I have ever remembered seeing on tv and they always tried to out do themselves every week. He is the last person on earth to talk about that subject.
ECW is where people go to die.
Bingo. Basically his "federation" literally took the mentally deranged and crippled individuals from the dredges of society and gave them a façade to play under.
He is by NO means innocent in any of this.
Paul is such a cool dude.
His brain had the equivalent trauma of an 85 yr old alzheimer's patient, but please tell us more about how CTE doesn't matter.
Then you get the dumbasses who say "Well acshually thousands of people w/ CTE don't kill their wife and kids" 🤓☝️
Does that excuse him killing his wife and son
@Tyler Thomas didn't do it was a set up
@@tylerthomas668 Unfortunately, yes. It is the reason insanity pleas are an actual thing. It doesn't mean what they did was okay, but they had zero control over what they did. This is also why there are multiple different types murder and manslaughter.
For example (extremely hypothetical): Woman gets turn into a zombie and eats her family of 4, she is cured by the CDC. Do you try her for voluntary or involuntary manslaughter of her family of 4?
@@iketurnher4745 idk it's a tricky thing to navigate but in this case despite my love for his in ring work, you can't excuse what he did because he knew it was wrong he searched up on his own computer how to bring them back, to me that shows he knew what he did.
As a human being who had is head smashed several 1000 times and dropped on his head, it makes sense that he would eventually lose it
No excuse for killing Nancy and shooting Daniel full of medication and then suffocating him.
So it makes you wanna kill people !??? Gtfo he’s a murder and everything Paul is saying accurate
You can't deny his talent. He carried the WWE on his back for 7 years. From 2000 until that tragic incident in 2007 and he did 7 years in WCW before he went to WWE.
Thank you!!!! People need to let go and take a good look at reality and grow up
But then again these are wrestling fans we’re talking about
It’s like people go extra hard for Benoit BECAUSE of what he did, and they wanna like outshine his bad with his good
How about just kind of letting it fizzle out? You can appreciate his work, but to admire him to the point of pretending like he did no wrong and didn’t even do what he did blows my mind
Not caring about CTE was the reason we are in all this mess, if it was taken seriously it probably would of been avoided. It’s gut wrenchingly sad that it took this situation, and similar situations to get people to get serious about it and do something to prevent future situations like this.
He was on break to help his self mentally like I said before you wanna kill your self cool ✌🏾 just like the nfl players who went thru the SAME thing they didn’t kill there Family they killed there self he is a coward , forever in my book
@@user-mo2kl2ce1z CTE is not something you can “take a break from” and heal. It’s permanent brain damage.
So, we can give an excuse to other murderers because they have brain problems and mental health problems? What about those people who have schizophrenia that killed other people brutally? Could we give them an excuse too?
So CTE killed his wife and kid
@@maplelino8619 Are u being deliberately dense? The og comment is about future prevention and bringing attention to why Benoit did what he did to spread awareness of what CTE can do. No one said anything about making excuses for him here.
I love the work of Chris. As a person, nah. I just think wwe should put some kind of trigger warning and stop erasing Benoit from history. He was my favorite since wcw days.
Nah, he's a child and woman killer. His name is cancer, and they should avoid mentioning him as much as possible. He isn't erased, his matches are still available, but they don't hold him name in any regard and nor should they. He's a POS and should only be remembered for the most impactful thing he did, which was horrible. Also, if you want to talk about being a professional, the dude no showed a PPV to kill a little boy and a woman. Screw Chris and any neckbeard loser who says nice things about him.
He's not erased. You can still watch his debut, his matches and his rumble win/mania main event. They just dont talk about him. Why would they?
CB THE 🐐
He was a child killer, just as bad as a pedophile
Can you give some context
Paul’s 100% right. Talent and extraordinary as his career was in professional wrestling, Chris Benoit tarnished his legacy and his reputation after what he did to Nancy and Daniel. And the only ones that truly knew Chris are still in disbelief that he did those things regardless of why it happened
Way better response rather than ignoring it. Call out bullshit when you hear it folks, people need to get checked once in a while
I'm pretty sure that whoever said "my boy" was only talking about his in ring skills. I doubt highly that it was for killing his family.
He was just trying to be an edgelord
Ikr right? Because Paul Heyman goes on to praise his ring skills as top 5 in the same sentence, so he's doing the exact same thing as the person in the crowd, Paul is just going off the assumption that he's morally superior and the guy in the crowd is an asshole. Like he's reading into what "my boy" means too much I think....
If I was praising R. Kelly's skills as a singer I wouldn't call him "My Boy"
@@waitselljones8068Point taken..
I would never ever get into an argument with Paul Heyman
I would've told Paul to fuck off
Hearing people talk I would be more worried if he owed me money than what he might say
I Would.
Well he had a microphone
Kevin Sullivan is the one that killed all 3 of them, not Chris they used that as a cover.
I love Heyman standing up for this
I will always watch this clip in its entirety every time it comes across my feed
Here's a solution. Stop Drug pushing Pro Wrestlers.
Chris's Father made sure his Fitness Dr. was jailed for life.
The End.
Paul Heyman as I have gotten older one of my favorites
I fuxking love this.... I quote this every time someone brings him up
"I don't care about CTE"?
@@mycodingchannel9690 don't be dumb you know exactly what I mean....
Paul felt real tough saying “f*ck your brain damage! You had a choice!” Like the frontal lobes aren’t integral to making them. Big brain over here 🧠👏🏽👏🏽
He’s consistent though. The fact is there are a ton of people who commit all sorts of crimes that may be suffering from all sorts of medical condition that impact the Brain. Most people wouldn’t extend that same grace because they are average people and not their favorite wrestlers.
Was he really that bad? This guy wrestled a 20 minute match three days before he killed his family…I’ll show you real CTE come watch my grandpa pour a bowl of cereal and you’ll stop using this CTE excuse
Take ur feelings out of it… Benoit still one of the greatest workers and performers in WWE history. It’s a tragedy what happened obviously but not caring about CTE is what led to the family’s demise.
another reason i love paul on the microphone
Paul had a choice to pay ecw wrestlers and he didn’t 😂
EXACTLY!
I mean… brutally being murdered or a shitty paycheck… I think I’ll take a shitty paycheck for 400 Alex
There you have it.. enjoy the 5 secs of fame. Based on however irrelevant and idiotic comment it may be
Yeah but did Paul kill anyone with lack of payment? Or shot someone because he didnt want to pay them?
@@PrinceRalexiel mental stress of not being able to earn a living , stupid go back and heat up that hot pocket and wait for your momma to come down the basement to give your allowance for the week.
The Benoit tragedy is what caused me to quit watching wrestling. Chris had been my favorite wrestler growing up. It was just heartbreaking on so many levels.
I think he was framed
@@KarnagetheEmcee I've had my thoughts on that. Except I don't buy into the Kevin Sullivan conspiracy. Let me say this to do business in New York like the WWF/WWE . You don't without certain kind of connections if ya know what I'm saying. Plus remember before the Italians who was there the Irish.
We don't actually know what happened. If I just look for details of the event a lot of things don't add up.
Him and Eddie were my boys. Wrestling was ruined for a long time after that.
@@KarnagetheEmcee yea honestly idk for sure. I think it's also possible he snapped because of the CTE, which has happened before to multiple athletes. But there was alot of fishy shit in that case, so people dismissing the possibility of him being framed are nuts.
