      I agree, I just wish he'd lay off politics or do a different show dedicated to that type of stuff, if I'm here to listen to his wrestling knowledge which is undeniable I don't want to here about his bs opinions on politics which are always just making a caricature out of the other side, and worse its clear he knows nothing about the issues he rants about. And I'd say the same if he where a conservative.

    I’ll remember Paul Heyman as the booker of the golden era of SmackDown with the SD 6 Eddie Guerrero, Chris Benoit, Edge, Kurt Angle, Rey Mysterio and Undertaker it sucked that Vince was so jealous and pissed that SD was better than Raw he fired Heyman and it wasn’t as good after he left

  • @ravenstrahd5234

    Paul Heyman was a better booker than Russo ever will be. Paul ran a wrestling promotion well with limited resources. Russo bankrupted Dixie Carter and made her lose a tv deal with Spike tv. Paul Heyman did a great job. Russo lasted a year at WCW, Paul was there a lot longer.

      Wouldn't say dying, it's just not the cool thing on the market anymore which honestly, never should've been mainstream because it sorta tarnished the business as it brought in fans who think real wrestling is swearing and doing basic punches, which legit anyone in their first month of wrestling training can do.

    Jim Cornette used to say some of the funniest things about Paul during the Midnight vs. Original Midnight feud. I remember a few times in promos he would say, "Paul is a poor imitation of me. He;s got a 'Jim Cornette Joke book' in his back pocket trying to be me." That was one of his greatest lines ever! I would try to imagine where I could buy a "Jim Cornette Joke Book", just the idea of one sounded hillarious! Actually, all the wrestlers and managers that came out of Memphis were natural comedians, Jerry Lawler could make up fiunny one liners like that, too!

    That's one thing you could tell - Flair was not the one to be a booker. I mean he is on the list with Kevin Nash being head booker in WCW. Also that technically could be the first pipebomb ever in professional wrestling. Never mind the "Hulk Hogan, we comin for you N***a" one, I do really think Heyman's promo there could have pretty much been the pipebomb.
