Paul Heyman's Company Name Revealed and Two Major Talents Signed
Today, Paul Heyman had an interview with the UK Sun. Here is the interview in it's entirety.
UK SUN: Thank you for this interview Paul, and allow us to begin with the question everyone has been asking. What will your new promotion be called?
Paul Heyman: I've had this asked for days since I revealed the new company. I personally believe that pro wrestling is something that is entirely unique. It is as rabid or more rabid than sports while able to grasp the casual fan like any movie or TV sitcom. Professional wrestling fans are not simply fans, they are a NATION of sorts. They may bicker, argue, and point out the flaws. They make like this, or hate that, but in the end they are all united under one front. Being Professional Wrestling fans. I call that unity a true nation. So what better name then that? We are the Pro Wrestling Nation, P-W-N, and the fans, the PWN, and all the hard working professional wrestlers around the world will bring a brand new meaning to pro wrestling.
UK SUN: Pro Wrestling Nation, eh? Great name. Now tell us, Paul, who is this financial backer?
Paul Heyman: If I told you that, I'd have to kill you. (He laughs) In all seriousness, I'm not ready to reveal that data but I'll give you a hint. Whomever it is has a deal with a Television network. Thus meaning, that P-W-N will be on T-V.
UK SUN: Wow! A television deal already?
Paul Heyman: I may not be a financial wizard but I certainly can give a convincing argument. Let's keep it at that.
UK SUN: So when exactly will you be debuting your television show?
Paul Heyman: Let's just say, it's much sooner than you'd expect.
UK SUN: Wow, so secretive.
Paul Heyman: I'm revealing too much too soon as it is, my friend.
UK SUN: Okay well the final question I know everyone wants answered... what Pro Wrestling stars have contacted you and vice versa? Can you give us ANY names?
Paul Heyman: I am willing to give you two huge names. One name, being former ECW and WWE heavyweight champion, the man who I respect in this business nearly more than anybody else, Mr. P-P-V, R-V-D!
UK SUN: Wow! So he's returning from retirement?
Paul Heyman: He is. Due to our short schedule for the beginning he is able to work a night or two a week and still watch over his wife, God bless her, who is surviving and beating cancer. But to show we are not just about the past, but much like I've always believed, we are about the future, our other signee is a man who hasn't even reached his prime. This man is notoriously regarded as the best in the world. He is a trainee of Shawn Michaels, a former ROH champion who has done all he could with them. He is the “American Dragon” Bryan Danielson!
UK SUN: Unbelievable!
Paul Heyman: Believe it. He was offered deals to go to TNA, the WWE, full time in Japan, Mexico, and to remain in ROH. After discovering exactly what my goal was, his decision, as he says, became simple. However, this phenomenal talent will be unable to debut until his ROH and Japan commitments are finished. The end of November seems to be about the right time.
UK SUN: So that means you'll be on TV before November?
Paul Heyman: I thought the last one was your last question? Either way, you'll see in the coming weeks.
UK SUN: Thank you so much for this interview, Mr. Heyman.
Paul Heyman: Thank you.
