I seen this recently while looking at some Paul Heyman classic footage, and wow I forgot about it but it all came to me as I watched it from beginning to end. Just brilliant, especially about with Paul E.'s comment about Vince's father and the promise made which Vince didn't uphold. Any other suggestions for shoot or worked shoot promos that were awesome or even just good but don't get much mention these days? This is up there with my ALL TIME favorite moments in WWE. "Worked shoot" or whatever you want to call it, everything Heyman said was spot on.

I can remember two Brian Pillman moments from around '95. They weren't entire promos but they were shocking in their own right.
On was a strap match between Kevin Sullivan and Pillman in which the loser was supposed to declare his respect to the winner. After only a couple of minutes, Pillman jumped out of the ring, grabbed a mic and said, "I respect you, Bookerman!"
The other wasn't much later that year when Pillman grabbed Bobby Heenan from behind without Heenan being aware that Pillman was there. It caused Heenan to shout, on live TV, "What the F--- are you doing??!!"
I can't access Youtube at work but I'm guessing there are there if you look for them.

Heyman did a work-shoot with Jerry Lawler too where he asked Lawler, "How are the see-saws in Louisville, Jerry?" in reference to Lawler's accused (later proven false) rape of a young girl. WWF rarely shocks me but they did that night!

My favourite was when Matt Hardy returned for his feud with Edge over Lita scandal. His return was scripted to make it appear real especially when Matt got on the mic & tried to start an ROH chant
