Paul Bearer

By Scott Keith on January 2, 2019

Hi Scott

I don’t think Paul Bearer gets the love he deserves, the man was on the same level Heyman and Cornette on the mic, albeit in a different way but I never see him brought up as one of the great talkers.
His promos in 1997/1998 were the stuff of legends, he took an incredibly silly concept and feud ever and fully invested himself in it and made it something great and serious. He was completely responsible for the Kane/Undertaker feud working out and without him it would share the same bin as Undertaker/Undertaker and Kane would’ve been repackaged or released in no time (although I’ll give Kane some credit for apparently studying Michael Myers and looking the part).
Thoughts?

I don't really see it but I respect your love of Paul Bearer. Undertaker was able to talk just fine on his own by 1997 and I don't think Bearer actually added that much to the act, but he certainly threw himself into the gimmick.
