Damn Paul Heyman looks like he was crowned the new Godfather.

Bryan’s face at 12:32 is priceless..like he’s saying “OUCH that’s gotta hurt, tna”. It just goes to show that Heyman joining TNA just isn’t likely because he obviously doesn’t even care for the ecw storyline let alone anything else they have to offer. i wish it didn’t look that way, but that’s the way it looks. hopefully pauls working all of us, but one thing about paul is no matter who he lied to, he never lied to the fans. He’s telling the fans now how unlikely him joining tna is..very.

Lets get one thing straight..Is Paul E a liar? Yes. Thief? Yes. Scammer? Yes. But one thing, he is a genius when it comes to being creative. Lets put it this way, if he can refund the non refundable WCW Plane tickets, I’m sure he can contribute a great deal to TNA. He’s got Dixie & Co by the balls, and he knows if they DONT sign him..They’ll go down, and go down fast. Thing is, if they can give Jim Ross a ridiculous offer to come to TNA, what did they originally offer Paul E? Time will tell….

Heyman the man is just so clever instead of chasing after hogan and bischoff why didnt they chase after heyman mans a legend!

that was such a good interview and I hope TNA and Paulie an work together because WWE is targeting kids so the 18-45 male viewers is there for the picking and UFC now owns the male 18-45 viewers so good luck to TNA.

godanselmo July 20, 2010 at 8:04 am

@avkingoking who said Bischoff is going to be around? If Heyman comes in both Bischoff and Hogan are toast.

MRoberts1989 July 20, 2010 at 8:52 am

i dont think he will go to tna with hogan and bischoff there…but i would love to see him back in wwe

as much as i like paul heyman, i doubt he’ll be going to TNA because of his demands. here’s to you dixie carter: fire russo, give whatever heyman wants and then you’ll do alot better than you are now. to hogan and biscoff: thinking you can try to relive 1995 was a mistake. by the way hogan, since you’re to busy suing cocoa puffs due to their “not authorized use of your character” then leave. walk out. just like how your ex wife walked out on you. return TNA as it was. not another wwe rip off.

godanselmo July 20, 2010 at 10:32 am

I’m excited about Heyman almost certainly going to TNA. Apparently they are giving him full control. As far as Russo goes, it;s unlikely Paul would co exist with such a moron so he will be shown the door with his buddies Hogan and Bischoff. Good riddance.

@MrJoemae to an extent…

MikeyM331 July 20, 2010 at 11:19 am

Damn I could listen to Heyman talk for hours.

nchampzrulez July 20, 2010 at 12:10 pm

“and I’d end up like Cornette!”

Russman1478 July 20, 2010 at 2:11 pm

Good for you Paul.

MrJoemae July 20, 2010 at 3:09 pm

18:20 he says he will only work for TNA on his terms

MrJoemae July 20, 2010 at 3:18 pm

paul heyman is a smart buisness man

TNAFutureofWrestling July 20, 2010 at 3:33 pm

@Astraldragon1 What the hell did I just say?, I just said that ratings are subjective & opinion anyway, so please stop talking to me like I said otherwise

Astraldragon1 July 20, 2010 at 3:42 pm

@TNAFutureofWrestling , Meltzer rarely gives 5 star matches to any wrestling. which is IS his own opinion and he has a right to it.
Remember everyone has there own opinion even if they don’t agree with yours.
If you thought a match in ECW was a 5-star match, that’s fine. but it doesn’t mean other fans have to agree with it. everyone one is different.
