10 Wrestlers You Won't Believe Were Once Paul Heyman Guys
Paul Bearer wasn't The Undertaker's only manager back in the day...
With Brock Lesnars stunning one-sided destruction of John Cena at SummerSlam, Paul Heyman has once again become the manager of the wrestler at the very pinnacle of World Wrestling Entertainment. Heyman is once again on top of the world in 2014, but its been a long and storied journey for the lifelong wrestling fan from Scarsdale, New York. While Paul Heyman, the character (formerly known as Paul E Dangerously), is a man with the gift of the gab and an eye for making money, Paul Heyman, the real life person, is, well, pretty much the same. Like so many good wrestling characters, the Heyman we see on screen is, from all accounts, just the real man with the volume turned up. After starting a business from home selling sports memorabilia aged just 11, Heyman dipped his toe into the wrestling waters by becoming a wrestling photographer and journalist, even managing to talk his way into get accreditation to get backstage access at the hallowed Madison Square Garden. He made his way into wrestling management at the tender age of 17 and never really looked back. Hes travelled the country and worked for many, many promotions, both national and territorial. Hes run his own promotion, the groundbreaking original ECW. Along the way, Heyman has worked alongside some real characters. Some of them went on to become global superstars and legends, while others faded into obscurity. Well start with the latter.
