Paul Heyman Provides Update On WWE Hall Of Fame Speech

WWE

WWE Hall of Famer elect Paul Heyman has provided an update on his upcoming speech for the Hall of Fame induction ceremony.

Heyman is set to headline the class in Philadelphia, which will also include the US Express duo of Mike Rotunda and Barry Windham, Bull Nakano, Muhammed Ali and Thunderbolt Patterson.

Speaking on the Rich Eisen Show, Heyman spoke about his upcoming induction, and whether he had planned out his speech for the event.

Heyman said that he does not have his speech planned, and claims that he is just going to wing it on the night.

He said:

“No I’m going to figure this out as we go along. I’m gonna take the pulse of the room that night. I’m gonna wing this.

“I don’t know what the crowd itself is expecting from me. Is this a crowd that wants me to talk about the modern day WWE and Roman Reigns and the Bloodline and the WrestleMania main event of Roman Reigns vs. Cody Rhodes?

“Is this a crowd that, in Philadelphia, wants to talk about ECW? Is this a crowd that’s looking for some inspiration and a speech about pursuing ones own dreams? I really won’t know until I take the temperature of the room that night.

“You always have to know your audience, so once I feel the crowd, I’ll pretty much know what I’ll have to do to deliver for them.”
