Episode 470 of the Sports Media Podcast with Richard Deitsch features WWE Hall Of Famer Paul Heyman. The WWE’s Royal Rumble streams live in the U.S. exclusively on Peacock and Netflix internationally on Feb. 1. In this podcast Heyman discusses his parents, a Holocaust survivor and World II veteran; how he views the WWE’s move to Netflix and how talent processed the move; whether WWE programming on Netflix intentionally looks like a sports production; the creative process under chief content officer Paul Levesque; why WWE talent has not been considered for Emmy Awards; why Heyman could not do the job of WWE CEO Nick Khan; why political characters no longer exist in the WWE; whether the verbal skills he shows in front of a live crowd are transferable to those in business and more. You can subscribe to this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and more.
