When it comes to the success of Roman Reigns as the leader of The Bloodline – there’s a key figure some usually forget. Paul Heyman has been there since the start of his WWE Universal Championship reign, playing a key role as Reigns beat the likes of Brock Lesnar, Cody Rhodes, Logan Paul and more.
However – recently Conor McGregor would call Heyman out, saying he would happily break The Wiseman’s jaw after being called a ‘Roman Reigns Wanna-Be’.
Paul Heyman Responds To Conor McGregor
While speaking with BT Sport following WrestleMania 39 – Heyman would call out McGregor. He would simply say that we’ll see if McGregor is at the top his industry at 57 like Heyman is.
“I am still thriving on top. I would like to see if Conor McGregor, at 57, is still thriving at the very top of his entire industry. We’ll see if he’s even relevant, we’ll see if he even lives to 57 with his lifestyle. It’s not that he tweeted to me, I picked the fight with him. He, as a Roman Reigns wannabe, did the Paul Heyman style title on each shoulder and gave a shoutout to himself, of course, the ultimate self-promoter. Standing nine feet tall and weighing 155 pounds at five foot four.
With that in mind, I said, ‘look at Conor McGregor, a Roman Reigns wannabe,’ and of course, ‘Be careful Grandpa, I’ll break your jaw in three places.’ My father, a street savvy guy from the Bronx, used to say, If you have to hit somebody you don’t go ‘I’m gonna kick your ass, I oughta punch you in the face, I’m gonna beat you up and come get you.’ You know what they do? They walk up and they hit you. He’s talking a good game. You’re coming after the Wise Man? Even if he did come after me, what if I landed a lucky shot?”
Following Monday with Endeavor purchasing WWE and making plans to create a new company – seeing McGregor & Reigns share the screen is likely to come in 2023.
