Paul Heyman was insulted to be called “one of” the best managers of all time.
The former ECW boss has an incredible career in wrestling. His four-decade run in companies like WWE, WCW and ECW has taken him to the top of the business, This is something he continues to do alongside Roman Reigns today.
Heyman was also the creative mind behind ECW and their meteoric rise in the 1990s.
The WWE Hall of Famer is widely regarded as one of the best managers and creative minds in history. However, that is something he finds insulting.
Paul Heyman appeared with Logan Paul on the Impaulsive Podcast. He was introduced as one of the best managers and creative minds in the wrestling business. However, being known as “one of” and not “the best” was something Heyman took umbrage with.
The WWE Hall of Famer said that he isn’t flattered. He explained that the goal is to be the greatest, not one of. Additionally, he added that if his wife said he was “one of” the best lovers she ever had, then there would be trouble, further emphasising is point.
Paul Heyman On Being ‘One Of’ The Greatest
“I’m not flattered by that at all. It’s the phrase ‘one of’. You’re both in committed relationships now, right? Yeah, so if your significant other wakes up next to you and says, ‘You’re one of the best lovers I’ve ever had,’ is it a morning spent in bed together, or is it a call to the divorce lawyer?” Paul Heyman said.
“‘One of’ is not flattering at all. The objective is to be the greatest. If anybody takes Wikipedia seriously, when they write ‘one of’ in a credentialed biography of Paul Heyman, it immediately kills their credibility. Anybody who follows this industry knows that I’m not “one of” anything. I am the GOAT — and that should be acknowledged, accepted, respected, and worshipped.”
Additionally, he said, “When people read Wikipedia and it says ‘one of’, they look at that, and I’ll say it right into that camera: they go, “F** Wikipedia.” If Wikipedia would like to unf*** that f***, they are welcome to change the biography to reflect what is historically accurate.”
