WWE Hall Of Famer Calls Paul Heyman The Best Booker He Knows Of

WWE

A WWE Hall of Famer has called Paul Heyman the best booker he knows of.

Rob Van Dam is self proclaimed Paul Heyman guy as an ECW original and legend. The WWE Hall of Famer was given creative freedom and allowed to become a star under Heyman.

In a recent interview with Dominic DeAngelo’s Wrestling Writing, RVD stated that he believes Paul Heyman is the best booker that he has ever known. He said:

“I think you know that as far as booking goes, in my opinion, I think he’s the best. That’s also because I like his stuff in particular,”

“He got a lot of pushback from the WWE office in 2001 during the Alliance. A lot of his ideas got opposed. Same thing when we brought ECW back for the Sci-Fi network.”

“A lot of his ideas were opposed. There were other bookers in the office that think completely different. They would think it’s ridiculous.

“I think Paul’s got the best ideas ’cause they thought the exact opposite and tried to stop all of his ideas, but I agree with that sentence that he’s the best that I know of.” 

As previously reported, Rob Van Dam recently recalled Paul Heyman and Jim Ross “playing tug of war” with him during the 1990’s.
