Click above to hear the entire 1130 AM interview with Heyman!

In this interview segment, Paul Heyman shares his plan to restore TNA Wrestling. He confirms most internet reports that he him speaking with Spike TV about rebranding TNA. He also planned to hire Gabe Sapolsky and David Laganna as writers. Apparently, Dixie Carter had wanted him to head the Creative Team but did NOT want to fire Russo, Hogan, Bischoff, or any other TNA legends on the roster.

Heyman very wisely declined their offer. I give him credit for not jumping into that horrible situation that was as he said "doomed to fail"

Heyman is a great booker, but I would not, would not, WOULD NOT trust him with the financial aspect of my promotion if I had one and was going to hire him.

@lawrence142002 Well said. Heyman is a creative genius but moronic businessman.

[manlykscorpa]

@lawrence142002 simple the best thing to do will be to get Eric Bischoff to manage the financial aspects and let Heyman be in charge of the creativity

[dancemonster]

I haven't read the comments so forgive me if this was said.... Didn't TNA start by doing exactly what Paul is advising--go with youth--and it failed because nobody knew who these guys were? Isn't that why they hired Hogan in the first place?

@lawrence142002 Hes Jewish and therefore would probably know alot more about money than you

[Nertrender]

@lawrence142002 i don't think anyone wants him in financial anyways.

Biggest Problem in the business today, TNA and WWE. They're rosters are too bloated for their own good. There is no way to showcase the full depth of talent they have between them. Now if you were to take the main event and midcard of WWE, and the X division, tag teams and Knockouts of TNA with Kharma, Phoenix and Natalya and form a roster with about 35-45 wrestlers. That would be something.

[CrashHavokTV]

@lawrence142002 I would, you are only believing what you have seen in docs and on TV. He is a great businessman but ECW was not widely accepted and WWF and WCW was already accepted. Around that time, Indy promotions were dying off and becoming unpopular and ECW was only a little more popular than indy.

[shadyistheshit]

Yup That's the Paul HEyman System he just left out Bankrupt company when on top

@EdayW

You're right, I don't. But I'm not claiming to be a great businessman, merely pointing out that historically, Heyman wasn't one either.

[EdayW]

@lawrence142002  That is why you do NOT have a company.
