WWE Raw: 10 Things You Might Have Missed (Nov 28)
3. Paul Heyman's Tremendous Attention To Detail
It's been said many times that few can touch Paul Heyman when it comes to promos. One of the greatest talkers in WWE history, the manager really takes fans on a journey when speaking. Things were no different on Raw, even if this was an altogether different kind of Heyman speech.
After watching Brock Lesnar crumble in short order against Goldberg at Survivor Series, Heyman should have been melancholy. Going further, the guy should have been devastated. Heyman sold all of this in expert fashion during a sit down interview with Michael Cole on the show.
The attention to detail Paul Heyman showed is something every wrestling character can learn from. His eyes bloodshot from lack of sleep and crying, Heyman was also uncharacteristically unshaven and came across like a broken man.
At the end of the promo, he said that Lesnar would enter the 2017 Royal Rumble. Undoubtedly, many fans picked up on this. Those same people may not have noticed Heyman's eye for small details.
By looking so broken, he sold Brock's squash loss to Goldberg more than any WWE video package could.
