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.
@vincentrich - Banned But Not Forgotten how can I have seen hundreds of people write it when I posted it the same hour the video was uploaded dickhead?
Paul Heyman is right that Benoit as a person and as a performer shouldn't be in the same breath. lots of the wrestling community need to understand this, the same goes for all wrestlers really
The same doesn't JUST go for wrestlers. For example Michael Jackson. One of the absolute greatest musicians ever. But as a person? We all know the stories.
I do agree although watching any of his matches now is very difficult now. A lot of wrestlers that knew him very much liked him though they all acknowledge that he was almost always extremely intense.
The man or his family aren’t alive to defend themselves. But hey, let’s have a wife beater and a murderer on the Hall of Fame. Selective memory everyone.
@@al112v4 that's why I focused on him as the person, not the performer...as Paul did. He said when it came to in-ring, top five. But as a person bc of what he did, his respect evaporated.
Dustin Parks Well, according to others who probably were MUCH more closer to him said he was a very nice guy who loved his family and wrestling. 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? Perhaps. Not entering into conspiracy theory BS territory, but I saw a very interesting article talking about literally everything that happened that day, not only the 'official' version by the police.
@@hotpepper5125 -- Do not spread this conspiracy BS. Yes, he did. Benoit killed Daniel, he killed, Nancy, and he killed himself. He killed his son and he killed his wife. Let him rot in hell.
I liked him before he had the universal belt off tv so long that people forgot it existed. I'd be fine if he retired. I'll always have his feuds with Angle and Cena.
@@100tuti001 lots of mma ppl said that if he had gone training in mma in the early 2000's he would've been the face of ufc for years. He is a draw, he is a genetic freak and got the heavyweight title by simply taking down guys and mauling them to death. For sure he would have been a guy like a DC or a jon Jones if he had early training
"Your actions matters not just in the ring but as a person, Individual too, we're known for what we do in our life, and not just in the ring" John Cena of Benoit.
Why? How is that cool that paul virtue signals on a guy who just stated his appreciation of Benoit as a Wrestler? And how is it right that Paul, a promoter who booked dangerous matches with unprotected shots to the head gets to lecture anyone about Benoit who lost his mind due to the industry's careless for their wrestlers health? Benoit's brain was literally rotting inside his skull, and its all because of rat fucks like Paul who will never take any responsibility for their part in the amount of wrestlers who live and die with fucked up injuries. I lost a lot of respect for Paul here.
You can tell Heyman eyes got a little teary eyed when he talked about Benoit as a performer, cause he knew how damn good he was in the ring and that he was a friend to him personally as well. Still had to bad mouth him for his actions in his last moment and I don't blame him.
Agree with what he said though, as a performer, great performer, but as a person, just a terrible person. CTE could’ve definitely been a possibility sure, but he still chose to kill Nancy and Daniel and himself, sad thing.
I know Brock didn't stay with WWE that long initially but if he had stayed he could've easily be amongst the top 5 best overall wrestlers of all time: in-ring, power, agility, speed, promo, presence, comedy, intensity, seriousness, heel, and face

@@franciscofigueroa9459 No because all evidence points to the fact that man murdered his wife and child and any evidence to the contrary is circumstantial at best or requires you to outright ignore conflicting evidence. Chris Benoit killed his wife and son, thinking anything other than that is asinine and is just a person not wanting to admit someone they enjoyed could really be a monster. 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? It's not propaganda. Chris Benoit is a murderer. Enjoy his matches if you want, I still fully can't personally. But stop spreading this conspiracy bullshit just cause you like him. As Paul said, Fuck him.
Because he reeeaaally waaanted to kill his family... right? You have your truth... you want to believe the fuck you want to... but don't take anything for granted if you weren't there... remember, cops kill people too, don't trust anyone... I will keep enjoying his matches in and outside wwe and as a person... i will say: sorry, i never knew him ... JUST THAT
Paul Heyman is a genius. He is among the best on the mic and the dude is a beast behind the scenes. Just one of those guys that give it to you honest in these types of interviews and not worried about being politically correct or hurting feelings.
I remember watching Brock in a dark match annihilate Crash Holly during a live show back in the day. It was pretty awesome, and I was hyped when I found out he was coming to the main roster! Crazy that its been 20 years..
I dont care how the WWE makes Paul Heyman look on TV, whether he's a good guy or the most hated person. I will always have respect for the way he handles himself and the way he handles business.
I have never liked Heyman as a character but now wow. That was amazing. The way he spoke about the benoit incident. Might watch a few more interviews with Heyman
I love Paul Heyman! I can listen to him talk all day, his delivery is always great, Vince impersonating was really good but overall he is always a great storyteller!
Heyman is one of if not the most entertaining people/minds ever. When he speaks you listen he keeps/draws your full attention no matter what he's talking about. Love him so much brilliant genius move by WWE giving him the reigns to RAW he's gonna make it special again.
Paul is a legend as far as I’m concerned. He’s a remarkable manager and if Vince would allow him more wide latitude to operate Raw it wouldn’t suck like it has been.
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.
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.
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?
I wish my professor was like Paul Heyman or Paul Heyman himself. He has power to blend the story with the people who listening to the story. And his Vince’s impression was perfect 👏🏻😂
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.
While I respect Paul's view here, at the same time I have the feeling this is exactly the reaction he wanted to get after bringing up Chris in the first place. Paul, probably more than anyone, knows just how to work a crowd.
This was awesome. And let me just say, I am a Brock Lesnar fan, and have been since the word go. Bur he would have been about 50% as interesting to me, and perhaps only 75% as effective, had he not gotten Paul Heyman as his spokesperson.
I can give a lot of deserving credit to Paul Heyman as a human being and a nice decent person who's a perfect advocate. Hell. Paul is one of the most caring individual who mentioned Chris Benoit. Shame on Vince.
Chris Benoit is a crazy situation and I have so many questions but I respect Paul’s perspective on it and it’s straight to the point. 3 people died and one had a choose is a real ass rebuttal
Saw Brock at fan axxess for WM 18 and I knew he could be someone then...had my doubts WWE was gonna push him but I could see it! Even said that guy can go places if WWE let him! Was so jacked to see I was right! He fought Spike Dudley that day and lost lol.
People get the line blurred for Benoit. Like Paul said, as an athlete, he was one of the best I've ever seen. But even though it was most likely due to brain damage, he still killed himself AND his family. So I still say I'm a Benoit fan because of his wrestling ability, nothing else.
@@jacksonsabre4606 100% agree. Amazing wrestler and overall athlete and despite that he had severe brain damage to do what he did made me lose respect for him as a person

5:19 I will love this man forever for saying that. People worshiping Benoit is just fucking weird.
People get the line blurred for Benoit. Like Paul said, as an athlete, he was one of the best I've ever seen. But even though it was most likely due to brain damage, he still killed himself AND his family. So I still say I'm a Benoit fan because of his wrestling ability, nothing else.
Yeh Hayman!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏
@@jacksonsabre4606 100% agree. Amazing wrestler and overall athlete and despite that he had severe brain damage to do what he did made me lose respect for him as a person
Love him saying F him, cause people that say poor Benoit, F him, loved it. Thanks hey man.
Man I miss his ponytail
