      Sadly Heyman was put in charge for a short stint, but this was when McMahon was still heavily running things, so it didn't really turn out too well and he was relegated to on-screen performer again. Once again, senile old man Vince not realizing he is the problem.

    Perfect response to Conor McGregor, Heyman is a master at this.

    Heyman "controlled" this interview from start to finish.

      It could happen. Cornette doesn't hate Heyman. Cornette hates leaving home.
      The solution is finding someone that is in good terms with both of them and then bring them together for something. Where's Inside The Ropes? Kenny McIntosh could be able to pull this one.

    Roman and Paul doing such a good job at blurring the lines between their tv characters and real life

    What Heyman said is true to an extent but diminishing returns are definitely kicking in. It feels like people aren't excited to see who beats Roman now it's almost getting to another "Anyone but Roman" situation at this point
