"My children are my breath... and my parents are my heartbeat." What a quote from the WISEMAN
Bien dicho teodoro
His humility is awesome. I know where he is coming from when he speaks about his parents.
There will never be another Paul Heyman. Cherish him whilst we have him. ❤
You're right!! I agree 💯 percent.
Yea, since ECW when it was on, on channel 53 regular channels, time flys
I think hes Done After wrestlemania 40.
imma be real when he retires and says goodbye for good imma miss him fr
100%, he’s a once in a lifetime character
Hardly seen Paul breaking character, even out of WWE programs. And never seen him talking about personal life, he's synonymous to WWE's landscape. Truly well deserved, respect...
He didn't really break character though
He's talked about things like this and how he got there
watch his speech regarding newjacks death n you see just how much paul cares
✡️s never break character
@@shoeplayisbad1he is the character that's why his character is so real.
I truly hated this man. Then this interview happens and I have figured out that I hate his character. Him as a human being seems to be a loving and caring and a great,father, friend, sibling, and son. Great job well done and well deserved. Thank you for the years past and the ones yet to come.
Paul is a legend
"When I dig myself out of those holes, I'm tougher to deal with every time" - I love that
Ladies and Gentlemen.....
My name is
Paul Heyman
And I am the advocate
Broooock Lesssnar!!!
@@captain630for your tribal chief, and your undisputed, WWE, Universal Heavyweight Champion, RRRROMAN RRRREIGNS!!! 👆
If anyone in the business deserves this honor, it is Paul Heyman. Revolutionized the business with ECW, and has amazing work done in the business in front of and behind the camera. I’m so happy for the wise man 👏🙌
I know Bobby Heenan was the trailblazer for this role but what Heyman has done with his time in pro wrestling is nothing short of amazing. He was the catalyst for a lot of significant change in the industry for the better and one of the most entertaining speakers we have ever seen. Well deserved HOF inductee.
"Screw him. He's dead."-Paul Heyman
Funny you say that, but when I think of Paul & Bobby, it immediately comes to mind two great wrestling minds.
Heyman's talent on the mic is unmatched. He's definitely not giving himself enough credit for the promos and exchanges that he's delivered.
Yeah, I wish I could have a fragment of his skill on mic. He is awesome!
Cornette DEFINITELY can match him and in my opinion is a way better promo
No. Paul stands out because everyone else over the last 15-20 years has been utter dogshit on it. He hasn't just magically improved over the years, he was around when the likes of Austin and Rock were still throwing it down, not a single peep about his mic skills back then, guess why?
@@Snakeman612that's not opinions
@@shoeplayisbad1 sure
Man a lot of us grew up on Paul Heyman 🤧 💐 I remember the days of ECW to WWE with him wearing a hat, pony tail and the young Brock Lesnar.
Dammit, Paul you hit me deep at the end about adversity. I’m going through bankruptcy now and I only get to see my daughters 33% of time because of a divorce. But I get to wake up each day and have a LOT for which to be grateful.
I’m an old school wrestling fan who still hates the villains. So I’ve hated you for years 🙃. Thank you for showing your true character and thank you for helping me see the truth.

This and the hof speach was awesome, I've never seen Paul Heyman speechless
Its rare nowadays for someone who makes it in the business and have the eyes to look back to where he had come and who helped him reached it.
Joe tessitore WWE stuff is always great. A true pro. Should do more
I was just thinking the same thing. this guy knows his stuff and you can very much tell he respects professional wrestling.
What amazing words there from Paul towards the end. Great interview!
GREATEST MANAGER EVER.
BOBBY THE BRAIN WILL ALWAYS BE #1
@@dtruth5769 nah
@@dtruth5769Who 😂😂
@@dtruth5769no idea who he was look him up and never heard of anyone he manage
Angelo Poffo and Chris Markoff, the Assassins Guy Mitchell and Joe Tomasso The Valiant Brothers and The Blackjacks.
Who are they
@@robertkhachatryan1866I even look up and recognized nobody he manage I don't watch wrestling just started getting back into it.
But these are names I never heard of even by friends or post
two truly outstanding men having a truly outstanding conversation. Joe needs to do this on a larger stage. Paul has a beautiful mind.
I love that moment of silent introspection in the beginning you could tell it really means a lot to him.
Paul Heyman is a legend for everything he did. Thank you Paul, you deserve it!
There aren’t enough words for this man, greatest of all time
Paul Heyman is 1 of 1 watching him think about every word he speaks really helps make me understand why he is such a great story writer and talent scout in the wrestling world, every word is calculated and sets up the next to compel you and keep your attention.
Love the ❤ he has for his parents and his family....
For the First time really loved his perspnality😊😅
One of my favorite interviews I've ever listened to. When he talked about his parents and what they went through (Holocaust/WW2) and their relentless approach to life in the aftermath of some of history's most traumatic times... that was genuinely inspiring. And it makes the arc of Paul's life make so much sense. He dealt with tons of backlash and setbacks, and now he's on top of the world.
When they chanted "You deserve it" at the Hall of Fame speech, his reaction was exactly correct. He really does.
Hard to find anyone else who deserves this more then paul the wiseman heyman
I struggle to think of anyone more deserving of the recognition of being put in a Hall of Fame, than this man. The amount he's done and achieved and helped others achieved in this business is astronomical.
So happy Paul is getting this honor!! He dedicated his life to wrestling & help make wrestling better, truly a legendary talent
Paul Heymann is a fckn Legend and people will Talk about him in 50 years and learn from him
Yeah because he owns people money from ECW days
@@billfelsner6429 He paid
Such a lot of life pointers. Thank you and Congrats Paul 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
There is so much knowledge in that brain 🧠 what a legend. Congratulations Paul
P.s the interviewer is really good at his job
That is the paul heyman i like to see and hear. Thank you paul
There will never be a guy like Paul Hayman in the WWE the same because he is the real goat of WWE congratulations on going into the Hall of Fame
Completely different gentleman than his character. I like how he used triple h's real name because you don't see that on WWE programming.
Joe Tessitore so good at interviews. He does he homework on all the detail and extremely knowledgeable. He's such a great guy as well just wish Monday Night Football couple years ago but his future look so bright.
Paul Heyman one of the best congrats your career has been incredible greatly deserving
Not sure if Joe Tess is a fan but he's done a great job with all these interviews doing his research and treating this professionally
The last six minutes are monumental in life, something to write down, read frequently and live. It is odd that you would find life changing and life improving advice from this type of show, BUT, what Paul tells us is a great recipe for life. He changed from an entertainer to a life coach in this one interview.
This interview shows the real PH . A man who is humble and thankful to others who have been there throughout his career . A true leader in the ring who has not forgotten his grass roots . Thank you for your hard work , for taking time away from friends and family , for coming into out living rooms and entertaining us . Well deserved !!!!
That was ABSOLUTELY one of the BEST interviews I have ever seen. Congratulations Pau or should I say Mr. Heyman. You deserve this honor!!!!!
I'm happy that Paul is finally getting his flowers because the guy for the past 40 years has done everything in the business and made such an impact on it in his own way and it's only fitting that he gets his night in Philadelphia. Also Joe Tessitor is a good interviewer and I always enjoyed him doing the boxing commentary because hes been great at doing that for years.
I so love listening to Paul Heyman the man rather than the character. There is such a depth to this man that is astounding. He is incredibly successful in the business but always projects an astounding humility in these interrviews. Thank you for your influence Paul and may it continue long into the future.
Such a great interview
im just hoping Heymans entrance song isthe ECW theme tonight!!
Such a humble individual! Thank you Paul for this interview!
Paul is an absolute genius when it comes to this business. Besides him Cornette and JR are two others that come to mind. That just KNOW through and through what it takes to make a promotion work. I'm so glad Dusty took a chance on him, that JR taught him what he knows about commentating. And that most importantly booker's FINALLY realized yeah this guy is full of ideas but they are BRILLIANT one's. Without that we'd probably never have an ECW to reflect back on. That promotion and it's talent were ground breaking for it's time. The things they accomplished and pulled off. It gave the fans of this industry a different outlet right at the very moment it was needed. It even influenced 2 larger promotions in both WWE & WCW to become more "extreme" in there own way. Call it a cult of fans for this small promotion out of Philadelphia to turn into the 3rd major promotion of it's time. But what the fans want the fans get. And they didn't just crave it in ECW they wanted to see it in the big 2 as well. I truly hope that we will now see an "edgier" WWE style of programming moving forward. It's long overdue and with them moving onto the Netflix platform the possibilities are endless for that. I think they've played the "PG era" as far as it will go. And i don't mean going hog wild with the violence and profanities that ECW got away with. Or even the WWE back in the "attitude era". But they certainly could get close to that and still keep it "family friendly". So i'm not asking for R or X rated programming. But "PG-13" Raw's and Smackdown's and maybe some PPV's having TV-14 content shouldn't be asking for to much.
I have come to really appreciate and respect what this guy has done for and in wrestling! One of the best managers and promo cutters of all time!! Plus, he's highly respected by his peers! Salute to you, Paul Heyman!!
The hard work and the determination and never saying word quit much respect to great Paul heyman congratulations I am Paul heyman guy
Man that was deep my kids are my breath and my parents are my heartbeat that's how I feel😢
i miss ECW omg grown up watching from Australia
I’m so happy for Paul he definitely deserves this. Wwe Hall Of Fame is Extreme.

Paul Heyman walked so the future of wrestling could run back in the 90s.
He was the original next big thing. Thank you Paul!
Thanks Paul for everything and thank you for being such a great role model for others

Paul Heyman you are a legend, Inspiration, Icon, Therapist, Loving Father and husband! your induction is well deserved!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
This interview was incredible. Paul Heyman forever.
His work ethic, drive, never say die attitude is what inspired me to follow my dreams of being a stand-up comedian.
This interviewer is awesome!
Paul has helped so many take a look at Michael Green !!!
What an overall great interview. Heyman seems quite sincere and humble while maintaining character and I'm sorry mr interviewer for not knowing your name but you Sir, you did your homework and nailed this interview. Thank you for the entertainment and I'll gladly contribute a like and this comment
Thank you for everything.
I loved ECW & New Jack, but I dont think we'll ever see that organization back without getting canceled
Rightfully so. I'm from Philly and I get it but with killing people being normalized I don't even think Paul would run it like before
Your never see it cause heyman owns money to his wrestlers
Wish New Jack was alive to give a honest reaction to Paul Heyman which would go like this: *&%$&*^^((*%%$;* 😆 🤣 😂
You really deserve it man☝🏻
🔥 Hall of Fame 🔥
From ECW and Tommy dreamer to WWE and Roman reigns this man is legend and RIGHTFULLY DESERVES HIS FLOWERS NOW
A Wise Man, Indeed. Congratulations Mr Heyman🎉🎉🎉
Great Speech on Success at the end 😢🙏
i can listen to this man all day..
The Wiseman was the creation and simplification of the genius minds that created great moments in pro wrestling like the attitude and the ruthless aggression eras in one person. I felt like Paul Heyman fit in like a glove during the Invasion in 01, and he’s just been bringing business to the table since then.
Sincere congratulations to Paul Heyman. This was really an outstanding interview. Being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame is truly an amazing and well deserved honor for Mr. Heyman but to me and millions and millions of other people he will always be thought of as ECW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This man is going to surprise us in wrestlemania.😊
Finally a well deserved person for the award
thank you paul
A great,passionate & heart felt young!
Thank you Paul! Your words at the 18 min mark hits home specially going through hard times right now.

Profound words from of a wiseman, Paul Heyman the complete pkg as an entertainer, hella promo, a manager, a booker, an announcer, founder, businessman, etc. One of a kind, the greatest entertainer to start from the bottom and made it to the top multiple times, to where he can make anything he touches gold, modern day pro wrestling version of Midas. The standard of success and was born to cut promos from outta thin air, a manager's manager, wiseman to not only Roman, but to us all. Congratulations, brother and to many more years of capitvating us with the gift of gab that blessed the WWE universe with weekly. Thank you for everything.
Heyman is the GOAT. Only sad thing is Brock was erased from his HOF and Brock is such a part of him
