Paul Heyman Reveals Why He’s Always Considered Himself a Triple H Guy

Paul Heyman, known for his legendary role as a manager and advocate for some of wrestling’s biggest stars, recently shared his deep admiration for WWE’s Chief Content Officer, Paul “Triple H” Levesque, during an interview with “Notsam Wrestling.”

While the term “Paul Heyman Guy” has been used to describe the wrestlers Heyman managed, he revealed that he, too, has his own guiding figures in the industry—and Triple H is one of them.

Heyman recalled his first encounter with Levesque, which took place backstage during one of ECW’s appearances on “WWE RAW.” The two had a conversation about Levesque’s trainer, the legendary Killer Kowalski, and Heyman was immediately impressed by the young wrestler’s vision for the future of the business.

“The vision that he had, that as much as ‘I love the past and I’m grounded in the rudimentary and fundamental ways of the business, we got to push it forward;’ even back then, in ’97, I was like ‘Wow, this guy has his finger on the pulse of the future,'” Heyman said.

“That level of collaboration at the top? I don’t know anybody in the history of this industry that does it as well as Paul Levesque,” Heyman proclaimed.
