If Paul Heyman’s tearful interview performance last Monday on WWE flagship series “Raw” wasn’t the most skillful wrestling promo of all time, but many fans and entertainment critics would tell you that it’s right up there. It was so good, in fact, that some people are even talking about Emmy consideration — yes, seriously, and for a (somewhat) rehearsed interview from a fake sport.

.@HeymanHustle deserves an Emmy.
— Kristopher Tapley (@kristapley) August 9, 2018

A mini-series that parodies 80’s southern Wrestling, “Southpaw Regional Wrestling” is a low budget wrestling show set in February 1987 featuring current WWE superstars playing 80’s wrestling stereotypes building up to the PPV “Lethal Leap year.”
