WWE has released the official trailer for one of its biggest upcoming DVD projects, one that has generated a lot of hype not just on the Internet, but throughout the realms of the wrestling world as well.

Ladies and Gentlemen, My Name is Paul Heyman is set for release on Aug. 5, and will take a look at the career and controversy surrounding one of the most prolific wrestling talking heads in the history of the industry. The official trailer can be found below.

The synopsis, courtesy of WrestlingDVDNews.com, is as followed:

“One of the most controversial managers and figures in WCW, ECW and WWE History! For the first time ever, fans get the full story of the life and career of Paul Heyman. From his beginnings as a ringside photographer at MSG, to becoming a manager at WCW, then heading up the infamous ECW, Paul has his own unique brand of over-the-top, in your face entertainment that has developed him a cult-like following. Unfortunately his financial savvy didn’t match his creative genius, and ECW was eventually purchased by WWE.

Since joining WWE, Paul has gone on to great heights, including managing Brock Lesnar, when he finally broke Undertakers WrestleMania Streak this year.

This collection includes great behind-the-scenes footage and interviews, with past and present talent talking about Paul’s contribution to the world of sports-entertainment. Featuring interviews with Raven, Tommy Dreamer, Joey Styles, Mick Foley, Rob Van Dam, Stephanie McMahon and of course the man himself.”

Editor’s Note:

I guess you could say I’m a little excited for this.
