  Phenomenal documentary about Paul Haymen's entire career dating back to being a teenager trying to get into the wrestling business to today. Very in depth, detailed, emotional, informative interview. I've only viewed Disc 1, which is worth the purchase alone. The matches are a bonus. I only wish they included his greatest feat as a Manager/Advocate by including WM30 match where Brock Lesner defeated the Undertakers WM Streak. There was more than enough time from WM to the release of this BR/DVD set to include this history moment on disc 2's list of highlight matches as a manager. Other than that I'd recommend this to any fan of WWE, WCW, ECW, AWA, NWA, ROH, etc. this man is a wrestling genius. And also the Advocate for the Beast Incarnate, BROOOOOOCK LESNER! Eat, Sleep, Suplex Repeat! Eat, Sleep, F-5, Repeat, Eat, Sleep, Conquer John Cena, Repeat!

  Ladies and Gentlemen, whether you love him or hate him you have to respect him. This DVD (blu-ray), starts out by taking you back to the young Paul Heyman before he was Paul E. It really gives you a clear picture of his origins, his teachings, why he is the way he is, his early days in AWA/WCW, his time in ECW, his arrival in WWE, booking for Smackdown and of course his evolution into "The one behind the one in 21-1." Of course during all of this you get to hear from people that were along the ride for his amazing journey. I really enjoyed hearing the honest opinions from everyone from Tommy Dreamer to Jim Ross, it's a different and great perspective on all that is Paul Heyman. That being said, I must admit I was a huge original ECW fan. I mostly purchased this to hear some behind the scenes talk and stories that have never been heard before. Without going into spoilers, I got just this. To my surprise they really didn't edit him. Those stories were discussed but I actually enjoyed hearing more about what makes him tick. I don't consider him just a professional wrestling talent but a master marketer. This DVD confirms that, as you also get to see the side projects that he has worked on and just how creative he truly is. He might be a liar, a hustler and quite frankly not a very ethical human being but he is a once in a lifetime talent. I do have a couple of issues with this documentary in all fairness. The first is that Vince McMahon was not interviewed. This was quite disappointing as it would have been nice to have heard the other side of the story. Without going into spoilers there were times that his version of some stories Paul told would have been very insightful. The second issue I have is with Stephanie McMahon. It is quite obvious she is not very fond of Paul but she has no choice but to respect his talent. There are a few quotes from her that just make me shake my head. She just doesn't get Paul and that he is a genius. Bottom line if you are looking for a great behind the scenes life story of a true evil genius in the wrestling industry; this DVD a must buy. This doesn't even include all of the extras which are interview gold. If i'm a wrestling promoter I'm sitting my talent down and making them watch the extras because this man knows how to cut a promo! Ladies and gentlemen my pen name is ECWintheD and I am a Paul Heyman guy.

  best WWE DVD since CM Punk's

  First off, I'm a Paul Heyman Guy... this was the first WWE blu-ray I've ever bought, I own well over 500 wrestling DVDs, but never bought a Blu-Ray (simply because it would look weird in my collection) BUT, I made an exception for this set. Paul Heyman is 1 of the most captivating figures in wrestling history, a liar, a cheat, a man who would do anything he had to do, to survive in the wrestling business. This story goes in depth on Paul's rise to prominence as 1 of the best managers in wrestling history, his run as the mastermind of ECW, his time spent in the WWE as the advocate of 'the Beast Incarnate' Brock Lesnar and 'the Best in the World' CM Punk, and so much more, if you're a wrestling fan, you NEED this DVD or Blu-Ray. Bottom line. The Blu-Ray bonus features are what swayed me to buy that instead of the DVD, well worth it!!
