If you hated that guy as a kid, then you love him by the time you know who he was and why he acts in a way to make you hate him as a kid, then he did a wonderful job. As a wrestling promoter, he will do his absolute best to make you entertain. He doesn't have to wrestle, he just have to do something to make you invest on your emotions based on the situation. If he's being a babyface, he'll make you cheer for him (I love his monologue in ECW One Night Stand). If he's being a heel, he'll make you hate him so much you want to make him eat his words.

@@theunhingedgamer3762 that's because Hogan had more say than Bischoff since he wanted to make it the Hogan show. Aside from that, Bischoff has said that he despises his time in TNA, whereas in WWE he's never had any complaints whatsoever. That's why people aren't worried because Bischoff will have other people to advise him, whereas both WCW and TNA had Hogan at the center of their downfalls. If anything SmackDown has to worry about is Vince still micromanaging over Bischoff running the show.

Yep, as soon as that promo came the crowd shut the fuck up quick. I remember a lot of CM Punks chants 30 minutes before show time. Once the music hit and Paul came out the crowd fell flat. It was the plan to ruin the show but Paul did fucking amazing. Can't hate on that genius move. Sitting the next 3 hours with that "Fuck you, you got me" look 🤣

[@Madferit91]

It was genius. He got all of us. I remember the mood at that time was like, "why is CM Punk gone, give us a fucking explanation", because nobody would talk about it. But as soon as that segment happened, a lot of people, me included, thought that it was all a story line. Because of course they wouldn't talk about it if it was real right? Or at least that was the mindset in 2014. So, when we started thinking it was a story line, there was no need anymore to chant his name demanding for an explanation or "hijack Raw". Because he was indeed coming back. Or that's what we thought. PS: I know this will sound stupid as fuck, but you need to try to remember the mindset in 2014 and all that I've said so far: I remember a particular moment in the main event of Wrestlemania were I thought Punk was going to come out and help Daniel Bryan. I think it was after a powerbomb or something on Bryan. Hell, even the crowd started quietly chanting his name. Sounds extremely stupid now, but that was the impact that Hayman promo caused. Just brilliant.

its gonna be hard to move on without paul heyman

[@Zombies8MyPizza]

I mean, this isn't actually true, I remember that show vividly and the crowd continued to chant CM Punk for the entire show.

[@hrishik_1503]

Yes but I can imagine it being much worse if it weren't for this promo

Paul Heyman is one of the best talkers in the industry!

[@SSJ4Ty]

His vince impression was the best one i ever heard.

[@CarimboHanky]

heyman is a real genius that simply know how to work the crowd.

[@opinionatedWrestling]

His mind for the business is just so unlike anyone else’s in wwe. It’s no wonder smack down is doing so much better than raw at the moment with heyman in charge. I hope Paul stays around for as long as possible and gets given even more creative control

[@nyjel2fly]

Paul is the real genius Vince should put him in charge of creative he desperately needs his help

[@kizwiz6]

And true enough, as of today, Vince has done just that: *Paul Heyman has been named the Executive Director of Monday Night Raw and Eric Bischoff will be the Executive Director of SmackDown Live in newly created positions that will report directly to Vince McMahon.*

[@James-cg8ys]

I think its cool that Paul Heyman actually talks like this in real life. That's awesome.

[@shawngregory5904]

Paul Heyman is the best on the mic. Period. He knows it.

CM Punk, CM Punk, CM Punk⚡👊

Paul heyman for head of creative. Who's with me?

[@antfrancis9941]

@@dizzogamingYT I said this b4 the news came out. Matter o fact I commented on another video that they should have smackdown vs raw, brand vs brand. So now heyman will be head of creative on raw & bishoff on smackdown (still answering to Vince mind) Both fighting to make 1 show better than the other & on occasion both shows clashing with each other. Wrestlers clashing with each other, wrestlers defecting from 1 show to the other, titles being won & lost from 1 show to the other. Again, wwe have no1 to compete against (aew now) but this could be a way to get ratings back up & to keep aew at bay.

This conversation tells why Paul Heyman is the Greatest of all time!
