Paul Heyman is famous for working in WCW, ECW, and with Brock Lesnar. Since 2020, he has been helping Roman Reigns as his “Wiseman.” But recently, Paul has not been on WWE TV for months. No one knows why he disappeared, but he has hinted that he will come back soon and make a big impact.
The Wiseman has personally teased that he may be involved in shaping the future of Roman Reigns and The Bloodline storyline. In a recent interview with Sam Roberts, Heyman discussed his decision to remain off television while Reigns and The Bloodline continue to dominate the WWE landscape.
The 59-year-old said, “What I don’t want to do is just be on television for the sake of being on television,” Heyman said. “Everything we do has to be relevant. That’s the whole theory behind the island of relevancy. If I were to come back at SummerSlam with Roman Reigns, it wouldn’t have meant anything. There was nothing for me to contribute to that moment.”
His comments suggest that he is waiting for the right opportunity to re-emerge on WWE television. The Hall of Famer felt that Reigns’ SmackDown comeback wasn’t the right time for his return. He wants his comeback to be bright and add real value to the storyline.
Jim Ross calls Paul Heyman one of wrestling’s brightest minds
WWE has had many famous managers like Jimmy Hart, Paul Bearer, and Bobby Heenan. However, two managers who are really special are Paul Heyman and Jim Cornette.
In the 1990s, Heyman was the boss of ECW, and Cornette was the boss of Smoky Mountain Wrestling. In an interview with “Grilling JR,” Jim Ross said they are the smartest wrestling managers he has ever worked with.
Ross stated, “Happy birthday Corny, he’s still brilliant. There’s no doubt, most brilliant manager I’ve ever been around he and Paul Heyman. I had a lot of fun working with those guys, but Corny is special, there’s no doubt he’s very special ”
