10 Things We Learned From Dean Ambrose On Talk Is Jericho

6. The Heyman Kool-Aid

Once again we're privy to yet another example of what's become known in the industry as "The Paul Heyman Kool-Aid". Ambrose and Jericho talk about the master orator and his ability to inspire talent. Y2J witnessed it firsthand in ECW and Dean got a taste of it while working house shows. When Ambrose was working dark matches on house shows, Paul would approach him and manage to convince him that being an unknown wrestler with no story or exposure would be the greatest times of his career because he's getting to go out every night and get over on his own merits without the machine behind him, letting his work speak for itself.
